Apparently all of the worried Bills fans that were grousing after a five turnover, 12 penalty performance against Green Bay have been heard by safety Donte Whitner, who made an attempt to calm the masses via his twitter account. Here’s what he had to say. DonteWhitner….Bills fans don’t worry please don’t! Sept 14th….we’ll be ready! A [...]
Maybin already paying rookie dues
Aaron Maybin did not leave the practice field empty-handed after his first full day of work with his teammates. The Bills top pick had veteran defensive tackle Marcus Stroud’s pads and helmet in tow, which is common practice. Veterans typically hand their pads and helmet to a rookie to bring back to the locker room. [...]
Bell twinges back
Hearing OT Demetrius Bell being carted off might sound terrible, but watching it he did not appear to be in any great discomfort. Fortunately the news of his injury did not sound as bad as what was necessary to get him to the locker room. “Demetrius Bell twinged his back a little bit so we [...]
Elbow injury for Schobel
Aaron Schobel has an elbow injury according to head coach Dick Jauron. “Aaron has an elbow and it may keep him out for a little while here,” said Jauron. “We don’t think it will be a problem long, long term, but it could be a week or so, maybe more than that.” That would rule Schobel [...]

Tough break for Crowell
Unfortunately for a well-liked former Bill, it will be injured reserve for a second straight year for Angelo Crowell. Already plagued by a hamstring injury in training camp Crowell tore his biceps tendon over the weekend and is now done for 2009 as well. Teams are always hesitant to take a chance on a free [...]
Byrd on first game action
He didn’t get to do a whole lot in Saturday night’s game by virtue of the approach Green Bay’s offense was taking at the time, but it didn’t take away from Jairus Byrd’s first NFL game action. “They didn’t really try to go deep,” said Byrd of Green Bay’s passing game. ”Everything was pretty vanilla out [...]

Shawne Merriman a T.O.’s fan
Terrell Owens’ breakfast cereal is taking the NFL by storm. Chargers LB Shawne Merriman is the latest consumer. Check out the photo below that he sent to Owens on twitter. My guess is Merriman got a box from his good buddy Aaron Maybin, who incidentally has a similar [...]
Parrish and McKelvin to see return reps
Through the first two preseason games Buffalo’s top two returners, Roscoe Parrish and Leodis McKelvin have yet to get a return opportunity. That will change Saturday night against the Packers. With the starters on offense and defense expected to play at least a quarter it appears the same will hold true for the team’s top [...]
Packer fans glued to Favre saga
I was at a local establishment last night here in Appleton (half hour from Green Bay) to get a feel for the Packer fans especially knowing Favre was making his debut for Minnesota. Here are a few of the reactions I witnessed. First, Packer fans were ticked that the preseason game between the Vikings and [...]
Fan Friday 8-21
Another training camp is in the books, but preseason continues, and Aaron Maybin is in. Here’s some of your latest and greatest questions. Keep them coming. 1. Chris; Every time I see Trent get ready to throw the ball, he keeps looking right at the receiver. Don’t you think,as I do,that the opponents see that and [...]
Maybin’s new do
Aaron Maybin has a new contract and a new hairdo. With a slight mohawk style he has a 58 and 78 shaved into one side and a Bills logo shaved into the other side. The 58 obviously is for him. The 78 is for Bruce Smith. “I’ve got two numbers, said Maybin. “I did carve [...]
Just watched Maybin sign
Just watched Bills top pick Aaron Maybin sign his contract upstairs here at One Bills Drive. Maybin was relaxed and relieved. After signing his name to about 20 copies of his contract he called Mr. Wilson on the phone in Detroit to tell him the good news. As the phone was ringing Maybin said, “How [...]

Bills second-round pick Jairus Byrd has been in frequent contact with fellow rookie Aaron Maybin who remains unsigned. “Yeah we talk” said Byrd. “I talk to him just about every day.
