  1. Anybody know anything about small portable TVs to use while tailgating at Bills games. I realize that I need a digital signal so I'd assume that the ones with antennas no longer work? Is my only option the dish network or direct TV portables? I'd prefer to avoid monthly fees. My friends and I usually stick around for a couple hours after the game as traffic thins out and It would be nice to watch the 4pm games. Any info would be great. Thanks!
  2. Nope. She's from South America and hates american football....but she is a saint when it comes to putting up with my sports fanaticism (mainly NFL and college hoops, we see eye to eye on soccer). I recently realized to my horror week 1 is the same day as her birthday. She said "its OK babe, this is your first year with season tickets. You shouldn't miss a game.".....now with that said I'm going to come up with something good....
  3. Funny. During the disappointment of the actual season I find it somewhat of therapy to come in and read the good posts and nonsense alike
  4. I asked this on another board as well. I must check in on the stadium wall at least 15 times a day. As we get closer to the season hat number will only grow. I got the Bills fever and I got it bad. last thing I do as I lie in bed at night is scan through the topics (or read about old Bills seasons on Wikipedia) and one of the first things I do when I wake up is check the board on my phone. Lets Go Buffalo
  5. Say what you will about Ralph Wilson Stadium (or prior to; Rich) but we have not succumbed to the dot com/name-brand-here fad......yet. or maybe we did originally? Where did the Rich in Rich stadium come from?
  6. Love the tree but this guy is the number one mascot in college sports:
  7. Tomorrow night at 8 on the NFL network is the NFLs greatest games "the comeback" followed by the 1992 Bills video yearbook
  8. I'm a bit more optimistic but yes. Can not wait for tailgating
  9. Well in hockey I'm a Devils fan so its a no brainer. But even if I was a Sabre fan Bills football rules all so my answer would be the same. Bills>…syracuse hoops........Yankees/devils/Cuse football.
  10. One of the biggest differences is there are many little lots around the stadium not the vast open lots we have in Buffalo. Last year I parked in a lot up against lake Erie. The famous lot is the "muni" lot. Just Google it. The most decor and die hard fans. Check out the Browns message boards for info. They were very helpful to me last year. Good people to tailgate with too.
  11. I went to Bills @ Browns last year with a couple buddies. It was awesome. I got them through stubhub. Went out the night before. Cleveland's got a good bar scene and Bills fans traveled well. Took over the hotel I was staying in and represented in the stadium. Might be a bit less blue and red this year with the game being Thursday. Still...make the trip...its great
  12. In 1987 I was 11 years old and it was the first year I put down the GI Joes and Transformers and really started paying attention to sports. My dad and grandfather were Giants fans but I wanted to be different. Here was this team from what I then thought was a funny sounding city making a push towards the playoffs. Being from the Adirondacks then we got the Syracuse news stations (I only had 3 channels at that time!) And that season was a special year for Cuse football too (11-0-1). I remember looking forward to every weekend to see if the Orange would win again and if that team from Buffalo could win.........It was the next year though I was cemented in. I vaguely recall the regular season games (the home opener vs the Vikings, losing at Chicago, that odd game in Tampa and of course fandamonium!) but vividly remember running up stairs to cry when they lost to Cincinnati and Icky Woods in the AFC championship. I was locked in. Funny how a loss seems to be the defining point of early fanhood for many. So many years have since passed. 4 super bowls, a tattoo, more tears, so many great Sundays and this year for the first time season tickets. Only Syracuse Basketball rivals my passion, commitment and love for Buffalo Bills football. Until the day I die I will proudly say GO BILLS!
