  1. trying to connect the dots based on the little that has been said , or unsaid, it seems the powers that be MIGHT be thinking in those terms. a sterile dome is unthinkable IMHO, just not "buffalo".. we arent ever going to host a super bowl and that seems to be a reason for the "dome" talk.
  2. hope you are right! could not agree more. and it does actually make the most sense both fiscally and logistically.
  3. that loss has bothered me to this day, more crushing than "wide right" for the mere fact that the team jelled from that opening victory over miami and the kelly bills , greatest of all time certainly, was expected to win, we had confidence, those 80 bills finally made us "talkin proud" after a decade of futility.
  4. one of the most heartbreaking losses in bills history was the ron smithTD when the chargers beat the bills in 81, if the bills win that game(btw romes , you dropped an int that would have sealed the game) they host the raiders , would have won and kicked jaws and the eagles a$$e$ in the super bowl that year.
  5. in what part of philly did you grow up?
  6. they rode andy reid outta town, welcomed chip with open arms, had to laugh when they booted chips a$$ out and andy made the playoffs.
  7. isnt this just a place where one can offer an opinion on the given subject ? but it seems there is always one of the usual argumentative blowhards on here that has to call one out .. tedious after a while.
  8. actually i am , thank you!
  9. your opinion! , will not lower myself to get into any type "amazing ridiculous" rhetoric with you.. its obvious you are the MAN! you have a nice day now!
  10. dude.. lighten up.. this is an opinion based forum, right? are you here to judge? i was just expressing an opinion, not offering it up as gospel ok?
  11. not sure if you have access to philly sports talk, but i do and it is evident to me, but that just my opinion. not carved in stone.
  12. you got that right!.. fickle and as bandwagon as they come.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. 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..
  16. billy kilmer, jim kelly, bobby layne, johnny unitas and the snake
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. 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..
  20. 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.
  21. i was essentially trying to make a point that the 50th superbowl could feature the original participants .
