When the Buffalo News used to have poster pages of Bills players they had one of Spielman in 96 and it hung in my room until I moved out of my parents house in 05. I still have his Starting Lineup figure. He didn't even make it to the regular season for the expansion Browns in 99 yet when I went to a Browns game 2 years later in 01 people were still wearing his jersey.
I've been saying this forever now. All the guy does is beat the Patriots. He got a bum deal his last year in NY, and well Cleveland is a debacle in itself. That being said he still beat New England in Cleveland.
You need to have a minimum of 70,000 seats to be considered to host a Superbowl. Yeah, hosting a Superbowl in Buffalo sounds like a pipe dream but so does this stadium. If one happens, why can't the other happen?
My notes from the upper deck at Candlestick. Women like to talk crap to fans of opposing teams to the point it embarrasses their men as I question their manhood for letting their woman run their mouths like that. That is all.
Anybody see what the Rams did tonight? Yeah, they're gonna be a tough team all season. They're just as good as any of the medicore teams. It is in Buffalo so the Bills should have the advantage there, but its not an easy W by any stretch.
Just thinking about it though, the Sabres had a couple good years in that time-span where the Royals have been God awful the entire time. I guess it's a push.
Let's not forget Seth McFarlane was also producer of the short lived Fox Sitcom The Winner which starred Rob Corddry. It took place in the mid 90s in Buffalo and they made all sorts of OJ Simpson and Jim Kelly references.
I have the Max package and I let my brother use my login information when one of the games was blacked out in Buffalo. He got to watch the first half but by the second half they caught wind of the scheme and prevented him from watching the second half. This didn't really have anything to do with what was asked but I thought it was a nifty little tidbit.
Every time Brad Smith ran the ball from the wildcat formation the Bills converted and got a first down. That was without a full off season. Now he's had an entire year in the system and is only going to get better. But the Bills should cut him because they need to make room for a second kicker. Yeah that makes sense.
