Otis Redding Live in Europe

You come back from Canada at the Peace Bridge. Pull up to the inspection booth and hand over your passport, and the first thing they do is ask what your citizenship is. WTF! Shouldn’t a passport kind of settle the whole citizenship issue?

Brian Higgins hair. Does he even owns comb?

A shocking development like that would be guaranteed to spark interest.

It’s pretty simple to me. OBJ is an attention *****. He gets more attention by skipping OTAs than by being there. Everyone is talking about him NOT being there. If he was, not so much to talk about.

As Waldo von Erich, the great wrestling villain of the 70’s famously said “They don’t ask you HOW you won, they ask you IF you won.”

KB was the Bills version of Ville Leino. when KB goes to the zoo, the elephants throw peanuts at him. he doesn’t catch any though.

Dewey beats Truman!

I thought I was watching Alabama vs. Northeast Bogalusa A&T.

The Throwin’ Samoan Pinball Clemens

The ultimate attention whore has figured out that he will get more attention by NOT being there.

This guy obviously doesn’t trust the process.

The Bills just made a significant investment in a rookie, who they hope will be the face of the franchise for a decade or more. They have to do every thing possible to provide him with an environment conducive to his rapid development as a quality NFL starter. Maybe they thought Richie and his somewhat unstable offseason, and his history are not what they want in that environment. So when Richie says he wants to continue playing, they decided to let him do it elsewhere.

When this crew is doing a game the TV listings should be changed from “NFL Football” to “The Ed Hochuli Show. “

Any announcer who uses the cliches "burn a time out" or "dial up a blitz". Oh wait, that's all of them.

See ya Walt. Write if you find work.

Bobby Crockett?

In the NFL draft that followed the last game Woody Hayes ever coached, the Bills had two first round picks. They selected players from opposing teams in that game. Who were they?

It starts with "in the sixth round, the New England Patriots select quarterback Chad Kelly of Mississippi." Fast forward to a mid season game in 2018. Steelers LB Arthur Moats lays a devastating hit on TB12, knocking him out of the game. Kelly comes in, throws for 400 yards and 5 TDs. Brady never plays again. A distraught head coach resigns after the season and is replaced by Frank Reich. Fast forward again to February 2030. I pick up the morning paper (yes, miraculously there are still newspapers) and there, next to the picture of Chad Kelly raising the Lombardi trophy for the sixth time in his career, is Jerry Sullivan's column urging the Pegulas to fire GM Doug Whaley. Below the fold a is a recap of the Sabres latest loss to the Maple Leafs, led by Auston Matthews hat trick. I take my last breath and pass away, a bitter broken man. But, hey, the Bisons are off to a good start!

While watching the presser, I thought the media jackals were just trying anger and provoke DW. And, no, I am not a big fan of his. Sullivan, in particular, is first rate d-bag, who has been cashing pay checks for writing the same freaking column over and over for the last 5 years.

What amazes me is that whoever is in charge at the Buffalo News allows this guy to keep writing the same column over and over again. Someone should tell him to find a live horse to beat, because the one he's beating now has been dead for a couple of years.

Is Aretha done yet?

I sat down to watch a football game, and all I got was "The Ed Hochuli" show. Dude was on camera so much he should have his own theme song.

I hate cheap penalties. False start, encroachment, multiple men in motion. So what if an O lineman flinches. The D should be watching the ball for the play to start. Let them stand up and do the Electric Boogaloo if they want. Encroachment. As long as the D man is on his side of the line is scrimmage at the snap, what's the big deal. Two men in motion. So what. Ever watch a CFL game? Doesn't seem to be a problem in the GWN. Far too many times the flow of a game is interrupted for one of these nonsense penalties. Flags fly, whistles blow, zebras convene a committe meeting, and one team gets a cheap 5 yards. More times than I can count, the very next play is another 5 yard nonsense penalty that reverses the first. About 3 or 4 minutes of elapsed (real) time of nothing happening except listening to some middle aged guy in a striped shirt making announcements.

The NFL hasn't been about football for more than 20 years. It's all about "revenue generating events". They just cannot keep anything simple. Everything has to be grandiose, because, after all, it's the NFL.
