dwight in philly

nobody likes the "drunken morons" as you say, but like the saying goes, a few wreck it for everyone. the reason it gets the attention now is obviously social media. in the 70's it was no different, just didnt hear about it.. the rep that tailgating has at the ralph is very high, if not the best.

ed reed will be named HC after the firing of HC greg roman who was named HC in 2017 after HC rex ryan was fired.

i knew jimmy and being a year younger, it makes one realize that all the "re-builds" suck. the shirt that says "one before i die" rings very true, especially today. R I P..

billy kilmer, jim kelly, bobby layne, johnny unitas and the snake

i really was glad at the time that marrone left and rex got hired, but all that being said, and what spikes said, how did they manage to look pretty darn good at times under him? i am just asking, have no answer, but the D played lights out his last year and was decent under pettine. i get the schwartz angle, but the team did perform at times. i realize being an A-1 pr--k turns off some of staff, office , coaches and players, but parcells is considered a coaching legend and also a bigger A-HAT than marrone.

fully aware about the AFC championships, but my take from your post was that the ralph doesnt have the history, etc. if you are looking at past years, the romance of the game, the elements, lots of shots of OJ running with the flakes in the background, snow games before they suddenly became fashionable, anyway, dont wanna get too much in the weeds, but while not lambeau, fenway, wrigley field, the ralph does have a bit of historical panache.

i would respectfully disagree about the ralph not having significant history. it does not rival lambeau, but is on par with the others, if not more so. the greatest comeback? OJ?, the bills of the 90's, 4 superbowl appearances.. the 51-3 victory in the snow over the raiders in the AFC title game just as the gulf war was starting and the nation was watching as the news dept would cut into the game. i say retro the ralph..

nope

i pray that you are right! the thought of a sterile dome downtown really stinks. we have endured enough with 15 years of Sh$*^ ty football, why further torture us.

i was essentially trying to make a point that the 50th superbowl could feature the original participants .

wow! you are old! lol..

that is cool.. every once in a while , back in the day, you would see a bill out and about.. this was pre juice and reggie at mulligans on hertel in the 70's

at the time of the trade, getting art powell and flores seemed to be a good get, but lamonica taking off the way he did, while the bills starting to sink was tough to stomach.. the bills were aging and in hindsight all the signs were there that it was ending, but as young die hard . you didnt see it coming

was just going by the number being used this year! but good "catch"

the first play of the game , dudley meredith, a D lineman on the kickoff team fumbled the opening kickoff, fore-telling what was to come. and, again, they werent the 64-65 bills , but would loved to have seen them matched up against the pack.

as has been discussed on here thousands of times, the downfall did start with the lamonica trade , and yes, the bills kind of backed in that year, but i think they had a D that year that was more in tune to stop the pack.. IMHO .. not sayin that would have won.. there has been lots of speculation over the years , especially from the players on that team, that they matched up better .

i will always maintain the bills would have given green bay a much better game, and possibly could have won.. the D was good.. damn good..

that thought does cross my mind.. lol.. but say it aint so!

not an earth shattering topic, but the fact it could happen makes this upcoming weekend even better , if that could happen.. also, KC could host the AFC championship game .that would be a great treat for their fans

i am thinking it wouldnt

i think another year can only benefit him obviously, no rush, a little maturity , good decision.

"funny stuff".. are you here all week?

i certainly hope he keeps it up.. would love to see him in bills gear in time!

if CBS has the super bowl this year , i hope the redskins are in it.. i believe simms is one of the wussies that refuse to say "redskins" ..
