My -- over the bulldogs welcome back the G dog Gregory Nelson baker about producing today Greg -- comedy dot com for -- coming. Local gigs. Tom stitch is on sports today and up panther. It's here to. Two games to one others. How hard is Boston report or move. -- playing Philly. -- yeah yikes yeah yeah for sure. -- got some work left. 21 game game four that is tonight at Washington in Washington. Yet tonight's good I think it's that game -- Philly and Vancouver LA may do with Daniel sitting. Here is John Murphy. Voice of the bills and what Bulldog arise Hurtado Boston Washington tomorrow Rangers Rangers and Ottawa that's right. John Murphy -- us channel four and the -- broadcasts which are. Going to be on WGR. This year John we were talking earlier about whether or not you ever met Dick Clark. Democrat got a look at both. No well I'm kind of offended by that do you think Dick Clark you think you know coming Douglas Douglas -- -- all the you people you really put me in that case. Well let's just few channel seven back in the day -- -- out. -- your -- -- -- and -- and all right could have been a connection. Is not that the U arithmetic -- Gregg insisted that you had and the thing. Was that because you worked for ABC affiliate one year along the way you and your wife decided you wanted to go beard in Times Square for New Year's Eve. And then you would use your hook up to get to meet Clark. No maybe you know what I told -- -- don't want -- center. Young men now I don't want to let you actually saw Elvis and after the couple times they looked at me like I was from public from prehistoric timers. They're like no way that so this place. I get the same feeling from you guys are. Here I'm not sure about it -- your your kid know he did sealed -- -- -- not accurate vote. About that you'd ever -- -- it was twelve he died. -- -- He gets on the talk about next year's draft out -- more about this more now. 77 that he died -- reason. Yes I've -- like celebrities. All right John we're talking about football actually two and about how again the bills are. I'll call this stock with three games at the stadium. December. December 2012 and I just wonder how good. Do you think they have to be doing how well do you think they have to be doing going ended Jacksonville Saint Louis and the and the jets. Home games late to have in a sellout those games that's possible. Well yeah that's a tough I mean stock is one way to look at it from a sales standpoint it's a challenge obviously and you know did I do think there's a couple of things that thick of first of others -- Sundays in the month -- December so chances are you know you're gonna get the you have to play a couple of Sundays but yet they're gonna be all three of those December Sunday's. But look look at it this way I guess I'm look at it from a competitive standpoint if they adopted December and they got six or seven wins. Though that's going to be dug tremendously beneficial for them to be all trying to get that you know tender. You know god forbid maybe even eleven wins with -- almost all games coming up in the month of December I just think from a competitive stay employed its third decent. You know those games are going to be critical and you're gonna love the fact that. You know you got in I mean look at it this way do you guys remember that name again and -- -- I think that they long long ago. That's so long ago. The -- wanted to be home in December especially against Florida team like Jacksonville would don't team. Like Saint Louis seventeen. That that means something that they used to mean something and I think if the bills are competitive and good. Those games could you can be very happy those games are now what's it gonna take the -- you know I guess that's six or seven wins and be in the playoff hunt. -- by the end of November I would think. Do you think he can ever mean something again do you think I'm getting the vibe from this group got to know some of these guys over the last year we did have regular gig which Stevie Johnson John. And and and I think like. I wonder if they -- in them to embrace that cold weather. And and that that whole the whole buffalo in December of mentality that I think really the bills of the two thousands Justin. Ever really fire. Yes this sort of frittered away I think at home field direct -- cold wintry field advantage -- they have a sort of what by the wayside but I do this is a different group and I think you've identified Stevie is is one of the key guys I think Fitzpatrick. Kind of relishes the fact that. You know there's Levys to say when it's too cold for -- it's just right for us and even the new guy Mario Williams. Coming in here talking about how he likes to play in the cold and he's looking forward to -- played -- that -- stadium in December. I think that you know that the proof will be in the putting we'll see other play went. When the winner when the weather turns in the wind starts blowing around out there but I think based on what they say he these guys may. Relish the fact that they get their home field advantage and it really called home field advantage of the market December. Yes like you've set it big six or seven -- into that stretch in December. There's -- known how good those teams will be sitting here today. In April Jacksonville Saint Louis Seattle and oral Miami for a role before you close with the jets Miami game road games heals into Roberts bill. December doesn't look daunting from a competitive standpoint -- I'll say this. You don't have I think it looks like. You know it almost be like who wrote to the playoffs right there again there's. Middle stretch of the schedule before you get to December that is you know pretty -- I think when you look at. New England than -- separate Cisco and Arizona and then. Back to back visits to Houston and New England you know both that's gonna be epic erupt as part of the schedule right there. I'll say this I'm glad that that stretch of four games not the first four games so that you and I Bulldog are not in your every day arguing with people about whether it means anything that the winning the mall. Like like last year and in 2008. Where they have these good starts and then image. Merck they could go five and 15 in two and will be like I don't know that -- right. Yes this stuff whatever -- know wade and and last year and even body next boulevard here there reference said today about. The great start last year and how it really was -- and what -- -- there was some smoke and mirrors he says and we didn't acknowledge that I thought was significant but. You know those -- count for something that meant something certainly that. The victory over the the -- patriots was a meaningful and I would say memorable may be one of the most memorable games in the last decade that the most memorable game but you have got start I think there's going to be. A few more skeptics and there were even less so probably get off to a fast start. John Murphy with us -- show in the -- let's talk about the draft a little bit when last we spoke with you we talked about alignment. At the tenth overall pick and there's also this idea of a quarterback it's it's Ben brought up lately may be wide receiver which we're dealing now. Well I don't know what more confused now than it was when I went to that draft -- large candidate habits -- that. I mean obviously and things have to happen in front of yet. I think it was significant that buddy -- pointed out today that. If there's a position that runs deep that the bills may go through the other position of need and I interpret that as meaning that they -- you know I think. Most people believe that there's a lot of quality receiving no -- in this draft in the -- that would lead them to take an offensive tackle. Do right -- rich enough to take their member Ted I don't know debate you know those -- -- -- from Stanford does he want to number ten pick overall. I don't know. I guess if I had to pick now I would I would say one of those -- -- such -- climate I keep hearing a lot about Michael Floyd did Notre Dame receiver and how they like him a lot to and then. Dude I joke was Gary keeps talking about the corners you know supporters of particular Kirkpatrick and a Gilmore who you know blog of that discussion I think -- over the bills are picking. Yeah I'd I'd I'd -- I think of buddy nix had his way he'd prefer the somebody would make him an offer he could move down maybe do you know another tight -- -- so so -- very -- anyway and gets an extra second or third round. Yeah it's it sounds that way I thought it was interesting -- John he said I'd never heard him say this and frankly I don't know that I ever really heard any of these guys through the years that we've been out for those functions speaking. Say beyond hope whatever pick your sit net it always seems to -- -- -- we think there's nine guys really like hurt your fourteen there's thirteen guys really like. Was I don't know what it really means but it is the struck me is you know we've heard just about everything you possible here at those things through the years and I've never really to put that -- I agree I never heard him say that before doubles like. -- I guess it's evidence of frustration you know like these we just can't get to -- wanna be you don't wanna be part of what I think a lot of we drafted in the top three every year -- you've had trouble you know. -- -- God I would bet struck me too is are they may be indicative of maybe the frustration as an organization that they're feeling right now that they just can't quite get to the player indoor players that they really lied maybe you know that they commit to Leo look. USC to tackle or you know who else you know black and the wide receiver that they're probably won't get -- which could either one of those two. And it's basically remember Canada and I think it's. Too much try to trade up into the number ten and I don't think they try to do that broke open a protest at. Well I guess on one hand it's too bad -- they beat Denver but on the other B a nine game losing streak and the seasons so it's good that they. Yes and -- digital. You will want to talk about this a lot I'd never I think the wins and losses matter more than for a position they really do I think I never believe you should. Think about -- could lose this -- we get a better pick -- need to weigh in and and as you said there was a terrible losing streak. Second after the season last year they needed that victory -- I wouldn't regret that at least. Disagree with me and it's complicated. Well I don't mean to say that the players shouldn't have tried or -- they killed Denver. But I think there is -- there is definitely a benefit to not winning. Yeah. And in the community ever wanna lose a game regardless of where you -- -- you you're scheduled loser. -- -- I just don't buy that is. That's right and I don't think anybody. I think people I know anybody who does for a living coach player administrator thinks that -- you know. Well a lot of those guys the vast majority of them maybe the sabres -- the exception. Are in other jobs are on the line -- George by the records and a bit better -- you know that they're not going to be around for the up the rewards if they. Lose on purpose to it. Gratuitous. Worker -- proposals as met Dick Clarke -- Right now I've been so sometimes somewhere along the way he probably did. All right John thank you like let's talk with -- John Murphy. Anybody listening ever meet Dick Clark. -- the guy you want to go one -- than you seem like.
