That's a good story. Really shows you how much people love the food that is available in WNY and the lengths they will go to in order to get their hands on some if they move out of town. However, for $100, I would've made you go to a couple of other spots too and get a real variety from back home. Something like:
- A couple Super Mighties.
- Large cheese, pepporoni, and mushroom pizza from La Nova.
- Chicken finger sub from Pizza Junction.
- 20 Hot Wings from Duffs.
- 12 pack of Blue.
Then try to consume as much as possible in one sitting. After all, you gotta use those 12 cold ones to wash something down.
FYI you can buy La Nova, Bocce, and Pizza Junction online and have it shipped overnight half cooked. All you have to do is pop it in the oven for like 15 mins and your good to go. Not quite the same, but better than your going to get anywhwere else. I used to live out of town and my roomate did the La Nova thing a few times.
That reminds me, for anyone that lives in Vegas, you can get La Nova wings at the Metro pizza place in Ellis Island Casino. Its just off Flamingo behind the strip. Just head down from the strip past Ballys and its 2 or so streets down on the right. (cant remember the street, possibly Jones).

The last 3 seasons have been a little easier on me. My best freinds g/f lived less than a half mile from the stadium. We made it a ritual on Saturday afternoon to hang out there. Go shopping for our tailgating food and drinks and get something to make for dinner that night. We would usually prepare tailgating food as well as our dinner that night. Eat, play a little Contra or Life Force on old school NES, watch a movie and go to bed to get up early. This year they moved to Angola so its almost as much as a drive as it would be for me to get there from my place in Amherst. My gameday rituals usually started on Saturday on my way there flying down the 290 blazing up the road rockin it out to some Faith No More. I dont know what im gonna do this year. But Im really excited and all I care about is being there early am on Sunday morning.
I cant wait for the season to start!!!

OK has anyone on here ever pulled off something to this effect:
Saturday morning - Wake up early and be active throughout the day.
Saturday around 5 or 6 - Go to sleep.
Sunday midnight - Wake up, go to bar.
Sunday 4:30-5am - Go get breakfast.
Sunday 7:59am - Honk your horn waiting for gates to open.
Sunday 8am - Tailgate
Sunday 12:30 - Go to stadium and the game.
I'm not as young as I once was (still in my 20s) but me and a group of friends are contemplating doing this on the weekend of the Browns game. The reason for that game is that we all have Monday off for Columbus Day so its an extra day to recover. So has anyone done this before? Any tips (no alcohol related) to help someone fall asleep at 6pm? Would it be better aiming for 9-10pm and getting four hours max? Our main concern doing it is what happens if we can't sleep or even if we do pull it off are we going to pass out at the game.
Thanks.
Why bother sleeping? just sleep in on Saturday real late and start drinking when you get up until you leave the Ralph? Ive done that before. Sleep till like noon and just pull off the all nighter. Lots of Vodka Redbulls and youll be fine. Your heart will explode from a heart attack but youll be awake until you die.

Amherst. Sunday mornings its a quick trip, 990-290-190-90-219-179.
Its prolly quicker to cut out the 190. Take the 990-290-90-219- im not sure what the 179 is but get off at Milestrip (prolly the 179) and make a left on Abbott.
IMO if find it quicker. the 990 is in a rough spot where its almost on the opposite side of where you need to get but I think the 290 is faster. And at 730am there is no traffic whatsoever.
But you have your ritual I dont want to ruin that. LOL

Just think how antsy we will all be on the first full Sunday of NFL games? The season will be here, we will be watching other games on Sunday, but know that we have to wait all day Sunday and all day Monday to see our Buffalo Bills. I think I'll be going batsh!t crazy in anticipation.
This is true. However I look at it in a different light. I see us as being on Monday night as 2 opening days of football. In fact theres many openings for us this year. We get the HOF game (which im going to), opening thursday night, opening day sunday, then opening day monday night for our Bills. Then it gets better because we will also get an opening weekend which is different from opening day. I just love football and all it brings so to have opening day is enough excitement, but we get more treats the next day, and then again a few weeks later.

Anybody that hates the Cowboys, is ok with me, but sorry Stone, but you aren't settling
anything, because your really not Stone Cold. Hell for all we know, you might be some
little nasaly twerp or something.
OMG OWNED!

Being a season ticket holder there is nothing better than waking up at 7am throwing on my Kelly jersey and heading to the stadium. We have 7 of us that have seasons and we all know so many others that we tailgate with its just a huge party. There is nothing like being one of the first people in the parking lot at 8am and drinking an ice cold beer. I cant wait for this season. I might be more excited about this year than any other year in the past. With the new OL, TO, TE im very excited. The season cant get here fast enough.

I think if there is no agreement before next year, there will be a lockout and no season in 2010. I think the restrictions you mention are very favorable to the owners and not so much to the players.
Teams with expensive new stadiums will almost have to give in to the NFLPA because they cant afford to not make money to pay off their Billion dollar stadiums. Unfortunately the Jerry Jones of the world IMO are horrible for football. Its big business now and small teams like the Bills, Jags, Bengals all hurt from it. Lets just hope the majority doesnt give into the big money demands.

Listen pal, I come on here and try and have some fun and you start callin out Stone Cold? I don't remember the night you're talkin about because I don't pay attention to Rocky's little nursery rhymes. Guy had a lot of talent, probably more than me- but a lot of the boys in the back didn't take too kindly to his little speeches. Besides I've wrestled in Toronto so many times. Probably the best match I can remember in Toronto was against Razor Ramone at Wrestlemania back in '02. We were both hurtin, but I think we put on one hell of a show that night. Listen man, I'm goin huntin down here in Texas this weekend and it's time to hit the road. Crack a few Steve-weisers this weekend though and if you have to, whoop some ass.
Im not quite sure how you could forget Debra bringing you out cookies and spitting them at her, saying WHAT!?! probobly a record number of times as you lost to RVD 3 times that night. One of which was after the show was over as you and RVD wrestled an encore. Absolutely great night. All that said you were my favorite but in absolutely no way do I think your the real Stone. But I'll keep saying WHAT!?! every time you post anyway just cause its fun.
WHAT!?!?!?!?

I can relate.
What I love is when that first full Saturday of college football games starts, followed by the first full Sunday of NFL games.
The start of football season is bliss.
Mark, are you going to Canton for the HOF? Ill be there and wondering if you were gonna be there.

My old man was and is a Cowboys fan. I was talkin to him about this just the other day- when the AFL was introduced in 1960, we had a team down here called the Dallas Texans- I think they're the Chiefs now? Anyway, a lot of folks down here hated the Texans- including my pappy, cause this is Cowboys country. So he had to pick a team to root against them. Bills had a fella by the name of Dubenion that my pappy really liked and the Bills kind of became his AFL/AFC team. Always respected the way they played. Then when I was a kid in the 70's, I took a likin to the Bills myself. I hate the Cowboys though, Jerry Jones reminds me a lot of Vince McMahon and I aint got time for nobody like that.
I call BS.
Hey Stone, I was at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto for Smackdown the very same night your good buddy The Rock had a live interview from outside with Lillian Garcia and used his phrase "Pie" for the first time. Who did you wrestle that night and how many times?
What!?!?!?

Hmmm, you just said recently your pappy was a Bills fan http://www.stadiumwall.com/index.php?showt...p;#entry1364877
OWNED!!!

What? Hey Dog, you look awful purdy in your little picture there. I agree with ya talkin about my boy Trent, sometimes he looks sharp and then others, he looks a little light in the loafers, a little fragile. But I'll tell ya what, you aint intimidatin nobody with your purdy little mug there. You might be a European Title contender, but that's about it. As for me, only two months before I show up at Rich Stadium lookin to demolish Steve-weisers and root on my Buffalo Bills and that's the bottom line cause Stone Cold said so.
WHAT!?!?!?

Thanks, I had that site saved before but couldnt find it.
WOW I didnt think McKelvin was that good at returns this past year.
-
Can anyone tell me if this is true?
"All McKelvin did was set a franchise record with 1,468 return yards."

Very good read. I agree with quite a bit of this. I do think even though our OL is younger and unproven it has gotten meaner, nastier and smarter in the middle. The bookends may be better to switch and put Butler at LT and keep Walker at RT. That way we dont really have to worry about the RT spot much. But I dont think Butler can handle the LT job. Time and practice will tell. I especially like what he said about Lynch. Ive been saying this all along. I like Lynch, he just seems too stupid to run any other way than Beast Mode.
"Lynch plays with a reckless abandonment, though often it’s the type of reckless abandonment you see from a guy who hasn’t a clue how to read the field. To be an elite runner, Lynch must become more patient and do a better job of diagnosing defenses."

I dont really care much where TO lives or if this is true or just another crap post. Welcome to the board though.

Bills- 34
Cheats- 17

If the player has the talent he will eventually start or be key backup.
You certainly can not build a team in free agency or from the waiver wire.
I call em as I see em and I believe this draft will be the cornerstone to the playoffs
Wait till next year, I will be more then happy to trash the Bills draft (lol)
Sorry, not this year!
I agree, however no matter how things play out this year. I feel that the very same players that you pointed out to start will all be starters by next season. IMO that makes this a pretty darn good draft. Some can say its because they are replacing crap and they are not that good themselves. I disagree. Time will tell. Unfortunately we will not know how great or busty this draft was for at least 2 or 3 years.

That Monday Night game against the Cowboys still hurts

Any knowledgeable football fan can understand that you dont draft a guy high in the second round at a position that you plan on moving your high priced SS to when you have other holes that need to be filled
this team is still weak at DE and with Schobel a question mark coming back from injury and their overall weak pass rush Everette Brown would have been the better pick and a steal in the second round
We can all stop arguing with Max. He obviously loved Everett Brown and will stop at nothing to stroke the mans epeen.
Last point Max. They picked up Maybin(who you prolly didnt like because you love Brown so much) and addressed their DL need. They still have Kelsey, Schobel, Ellis and Johnson(plays both DE and DT) and are all costing them alot of money on top of the huge salary your going to have to pay Maybin this year. They obviously thought at least one of three things...
-Either they already have too much money tied up in the DL
-They feel that Byrd was obviously a much better player than Brown
-They feel that Schobel will be back to form, and are content with Kelsey, Ellis and Johnson backing up
Please get over the Everett Brown man crush. We didnt draft him.

Saying that a player "sucks" as compared to calling him a "pansy" are two different things. One questions his ability, the other questions his toughness. There are plenty of NFL players who lack the ability to play in the league. There are few that lack the toughness. About the only position that qualifies as lacking the toughness might be some highly athletic cornerbacks that will just not play the physical game that is the NFL. Even they are tough. I will buy some NFL Qb's are not as tough as others, but calling them a pansy is way over the line.
Can someone change the post to the least manly QB's in the NFL compared to their peers?!?
That title just rings

I think he's commenting on the fact that you don't have respect for a guy who's kicked your teams butt up and down the field the entire decade. You don't have to like him but the guy's body of work speaks for itself.
Kind of like how Kelly destroyed the Pats in the late 80's and early 90's?
What if Maybin just goes banana's & sacks everything that move

From the start Ive believed that Maybin would be converted to an OLB. Then I saw the Bills pick him up and realized that it wont happen. Unless DJ has finally decided to scrap the Tampon 2 defense they run and start the conversion to the 3-4. This may be the case. Use Maybin as is right now at DE and in another year or so make a full convert to 4-3 with Kelsey and Johnson at DE's.
