    Has anyone asked the obvious question:  why?  This seems to be a bizarre fetish as I don't know why any Bills fan would covet a Bledsoe or Travis Henry jersey.

     

    Just to collect Bills jerseys from the different eras of my fan hood.  Some people collect odd things.  Not sure I'd call it a "fetish".  I'm not Rex Ryan or anything here

    Eagle Bay is a great area!  Do you live there year round?  Not many people can say that.

    When our kids were young, we would rent a place for a week in the summer.

    We used to climb Rocky Mt. almost every year (best view for the least effort in The Adirondacks).

    Lately, with my bad knees and my wife’s fear of falling, we have been circling Moss Lake instead. 

    My kids still talk about the donut shop, 25 years later. 

    We love going to the Big Moose Inn for dinner.  

     

    I used to live there, grew up there and went to school in Old Forge.  Live in Rochester now.  Just three hours away though so I visit when I can.  My folks have owned a small tourist shop in Eagle Bay for about 30 years now.  The best man at my wedding is the head chef at Big Moose Inn.

    I think you you should act like a human and make your own decision.

     

    Ha, just making off season board talk.  Curious to see what other odd jerseys people have and what their thoughts were.  Training camp will be here soon.

    Travis Henry was a bonehead...but he was a pretty damn good football player...go Travis!

     

    I did love the guy for a bit.  We was at a game back in the early 2000s (before I lived in Rochester, and going to games was less frequent) where he scored a TD in overtime to beat the Bengals.  But yeah, definitely a bone head.

  4. I have my stiched blue Freddy, my screened Jim Kelly and  my prized white Super Bowl patch Thurman jerseys.  Along with those I have a stitched ugly early 2000s blue Moulds jersey.  Out of the four the Moulds one gets the most coments on game day as it's just a little different than the norm.

     

    So here's the deal, thinking about picking up an ugly early 2000s white Bledsoe for a steal.  I know, he barely played here but that first season was actually pretty fun.  OR and an ugly early blue 2000s Travis Henry for not as much a steal. What should I do?  

     

    Spare me the get someone better stuff because these obscure jerseys are the ones I'm looking for.  Have also considered a TO and would love to hunt down a white Stevie Jersey for a good price.

    The Saints didn't lose because of the Robey non call. They lost because they failed to bury a team that gave them every chance to bury them early in the game when they literally couldnt complete a pass or get a first down for the first quarter and a half.

     

    They were up 10-0 with all the momentum and another score would have likely opened the floodgates. When a team gives you chances to bury them AT HOME with thw crowd going crazy and them looking scared to death and you fail to cash them in you have nobody to blame but yourself for losing. They should have won by 20+ points.

     

    The Saints didn't lose because of the call.  But had the correct call been made, pass interference OR helmet to helmet they have a first and goal inside the 5 and a chip shot FG to win at the gun, as they could have run the clock down having a fresh set of downs.  They simply would have won if either right call was made.  We'd have lost our minds had our season ended like that.

  6. I gotta admit, this thought has crossed my mind too.  You'd have to be naive to think the league isn't watching this Toronto basketball explosion and salvating at the notion....with that said I think we are safe,  Still, again,  you'd have to be naive to think some of the suits have not taken notice.  I think the cheapeat ticket on stuphub for game 2 was like 800...US..  Cheapest... Paranoia, it will always linger.

    It actually did.

     

    Thanks for the well wishes. Enjoy your exciting schedule release day where we find out at what time and dates games are played against opponents we already know are being played!!

     

    Did you not read the reasoning behind most of the excitement?  It's when we know which games we can do and when to schedule trips.  Just go away.  Your input is not needed here.

    Once I became “established”, schedule release day took on a whole new importance. Picking games and/or cities to visit is a great time.

     

    I’m hoping Cleveland is a weekend game. I just went there this weekend for the Jays game, and I’d like to go for the Bills game but don’t want to take time off to do so. Pittsburgh is another option I guess.

     

    Cleveland is a fun trip, did that one 7 or 8 years ago.  Ton of Bills fans there.  Tailgate was fun, the Browns fans were mostly cool..  If it lines up me and some pals are going to the Steelers game this year.  Never been there.
