And so it begins for the Bills

Get ready Buffalo this is just the beginning of your TO woes.

When asked recently if Owens would be in attendance, Bills coach Dick Jauron said, "Terrell in the past has not been involved in all of those things. My hope is that he's here. He knows how important it is for us, particularly in his first year with us."

Sorry Dick but this is just incident #1 in a long line of them for 2009. Get ready...

did anyone doubt this? Seriously? the distractions start immediately. Everyone seems to think they can 'manage' TO. It never works...yet so many seem willing to try because he's got so much talent.

Yeah it's basically like selling your soul to the devil when you get TO. You sell it for all that talent and hope that maybe the devil won't come lookin for you afterwards but he does...just ask the Eagles and now Cowboys, oh and ask Garcia too. He may put you a step ahead briefly but in the end you'll be 10 steps behind after his circus leaves town.

The only smart thing the bills did was make it a one-year deal. That way, they lose very little, and can cut their ties after he goes all TO on them later in the year, and starts calling Losman gay.

Yeah i agree with you there. One year deal, see if it works out (which is most likely won't) and then cut him loose. For the Bills I guess you don't have much to lose. You're a mediocre team trying to make the playoffs and return to your past glories of losing Super Bowls. Why not take a run at a player no one will touch. I still see it turning into a fiasco as soon as they lose 4 in a row but might as well give it a shot.

yeah, and right now Lohsman is saying all the right things, but how long before TO unloads on him in front of a camera.
