7-9, Here We Come.

Just received word from Bills Headquarters (Sounds more impressive if I say it that way. In reality, I signed up for text message alerts) that running back Kevin Jones and wide receiver Joey Galloway are in Orchard Park today for a tour of Buffalo's facilities.

Here's to hoping they hate everything they see.

Jones ran for a whopping 109 yards in 11 games last year (note that is his total for 11 games, he did not rush for 109 yards on 11 separate occasions) and never set foot in the end zone, aside from running to and from the tunnel before and after games. Galloway, meanwhile, had 13 receptions for 138 yards and no scores in nine games in 2008.

So, in summary, the Bills are interested in two players who collectively had one good game last year, if you count their entire season as one game. I know, I know, Galloway had three straight 1,000-yard seasons prior to last year, but he also had a string of six sub-1,000 seasons prior to that.

Or, as K-Gun so eloquently put it in a text message after receiving the same text from the Bills: "Galloway is another Lee Evans. Just 47 years older."

T.O.'s also available. Maybe they can make a run after him. I can definitely see him being happy with the steady stream of screen passes and dump-offs to the tight end.

Getcha popcorn/buffalo wings ready.
