Free agent Vince Young will work out for the Bills on Wednesday.
We've been projecting Buffalo as a likely landing spot for V.Y. since the start of free agency. Coach Chan Gailey has an extensive history of maximizing the production of scrambling QBs with questionable passing skills. While Ryan Fitzpatrick is entrenched as the starter, Young would be the favorite to beat out Tyler Thigpen for the top backup job. May 1 - 1:03 PM

at this point I'm sure VY will listen to anyone who will talk to him, and I doubt Miami is on that list after bringing in Tannehill, then again I wouldn't have guessed Buffalo would be on that list with Fitzpatrick as a fairly established starter

He can be a factor, he has the Tebow effect. He wins, thru out his career thats what hes done. Only problem is his mental state of understanding nothing is going to be given to him. Hes not suicidal, hes just immature. A big flag for NFL teams.

Per Rotoworld.com:

Bills signed QB Vince Young to a one-year, $2 million contract.
Young was terrible in seven spot appearances (three starts) with the Eagles last season, posting a 4:9 touchdown-to-interception ratio in a West Coast offense for which he's a poor fit. The Bills will hope a humbled Young can upgrade on pricey incumbent backup Tyler Thigpen. Since Young has superior talent to Thigpen, we'd expect the former No. 3 overall pick in the draft to win the job in training camp. Young has enough playmaking ability to enter the fantasy radar if starter Ryan Fitzpatrick goes down. May 11 - 1:00 PM

BigBen07  : (24 May 2013 - 05:00 PM) Holy...
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:27 PM) omfg I am furious right now
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:27 PM) I'm being ripped off by fucking Fandango
BigBen07  : (24 May 2013 - 05:27 PM) Milla: ?
.AirMcNair.  : (24 May 2013 - 05:28 PM) Fandango? Sounds like a porn star
.AirMcNair.  : (24 May 2013 - 05:28 PM) :shifty:
BigBen07  : (24 May 2013 - 05:28 PM) lol
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:28 PM) I'm trying to buy 2 tickets to see F&F6 tonight at Downtown Disney and they give me some error message about the order not going through
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:29 PM) but they still fucking charge my credit card
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:29 PM) so assuming it wont process, I tried again and it did the same exact thing. So now Fandango is trying to take 64 dollars from my bank account and I have no tickets to the movie tonight
BigBen07  : (24 May 2013 - 05:29 PM) Ouch.
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:30 PM) If I look at my bank account in the next day or two and see that the transaction went through and they took my money, I am going to FLIP SHIT
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:31 PM) worst part is, I keep trying to call their help line...but the num
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:31 PM) but the phone line is down, and their customer service chat has a minimum hour wait
.AirMcNair.  : (24 May 2013 - 05:31 PM) lol You'll get it worked out, don't panic.
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:32 PM) I'm just really mad dude, my friend said we'll just buy tickets there...but I'm worried they are going to steal 64 dollars from me and im gonna have to fucking fight it somehow
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:33 PM) I feel stupid for trying it a 2nd time, but I'm just going to hope the transaction fails as it should considering the order failed and I have no tickets
blotsfan  : (24 May 2013 - 05:33 PM) thats bullshit
Zack_of_Steel+  : (24 May 2013 - 05:33 PM) Dude, that shit happens. It's not too hard to fix.
blotsfan  : (24 May 2013 - 05:34 PM) go to the theater and talk to the people working. they might be able to get you in
.AirMcNair.  : (24 May 2013 - 05:34 PM) If they're a reputable company, they'll refund you of your money if the transaction goes through
Zack_of_Steel+  : (24 May 2013 - 05:34 PM) Usually they fix it without you having to do anything. It's happened to me before once and my ex girlfriend as well.
.AirMcNair.  : (24 May 2013 - 05:34 PM) It'll be no big deal
blotsfan  : (24 May 2013 - 05:34 PM) if not, im sure your bank will help you
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:35 PM) I know shit happens Zack, but I'm just mad that their customer service number doesnt appear to be in service and their chat thing is an hour wait at minimum
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:35 PM) I called the theater, they told me to call Fandago and I about wanted to punch someone
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:36 PM) This wouldn't be a big deal if I could just talk to someone, but I can't
blotsfan  : (24 May 2013 - 05:36 PM) oh wait, it didnt even say that they took money from you
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:36 PM) I'm being led in a circle going nowhere, lol
blotsfan  : (24 May 2013 - 05:36 PM) i bet that they didnt take money and you don't have tickets
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:36 PM) No, my bank account shows them taking 32 dollars from my account...twice.
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:37 PM) If I'm lucky, the transaction wont go through since the order failed. But I'm gonna be mad as fuck if it goes through
blotsfan  : (24 May 2013 - 05:37 PM) ih...
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:37 PM) For now, I'm just gonna have to buy tickets at the theater and then wait and see if they take money or not
.AirMcNair.  : (24 May 2013 - 05:37 PM) If it goes through and you can't contact them, contact your bank and let them know you can't get ahold of the company
.AirMcNair.  : (24 May 2013 - 05:38 PM) They'll help you out, or should anyway
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:38 PM) Yeah, but I just have to wait for now
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:40 PM) either way, im never using fandango again
.AirMcNair.  : (24 May 2013 - 05:40 PM) But now I have to ask, why buy the tickets through fandango? Pretty sure the theatre near me lets you call and reserve tickets. You have to pay them through your debit card or whatever right then, but it's guaranteed
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:41 PM) my friend said to buy them there
Milla4Prez63  : (24 May 2013 - 05:42 PM) so we didnt have to wait in line, lol
