I don't know how much of this is actually true for sure, but this was discussed a month or so ago here... http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/index.php?...9&hl=polian

Ha, both good observations. For some reason though as soon as I see the glasses, the face behind them becomes less important. Add that to a smokin bod and hitting this is a no brainer for me. I admit it is odd, but it is an affliction I have to live with.

I wouldn't think twice. I actually think she is looking pretty good. Though I am probably biased because I have a thing for glasses.

Doesn't Syracuse Suds in Armory have the NFL Ticket? Might not be as good as sitting in your own living room, but it is a decent place just in case you Cuse guys have no other alternative .

He could still do a better job being excited without being a total homer. Michael Kay does and amazing job for the Yankees. He stays objective, but there is no doubt his excitement is more genuine when the Yankees do something special.

Looks like Rochester is getting it. This link has always been pretty accurate since I have used it to see what is on where all over the country. http://www.the506.com/nflmaps/ Seems like everything west of Auburn in NYS will get the Bills.

When an NFC team is visiting an AFC opponent it is a Fox game. If the opposite is true it is on CBS. So basically for two games a year the Bills are on Fox and if that happens to conflict with the Giants, the CNY area shows the Giants instead. At least it has for the 4 years I have lived there.

We were really spoiled by Van for a lot of years. I am starting to think I would even rather have the confused Van back from his last few years than the current Murph. Murph was good for color commentary though.

Good luck guys. This happened last season for the San Fran game, at least in the Rome/Utica area, and always has potential when the Bills host an NFC team and are on Fox with CNY being considered a Giants market. Lucky for me I am in Florida this weekend with an NFL Ticket bar right next to my hotel. Now the trick is convincing my gf to spend 3 hours of our trip with the Bills.

I started a post about this yesterday and someone put out this e-mail address for complaints to the Syracuse Fox affiliate who I would think has more to say about it than Time Warner. programming@wsyt68.com

I agree, this still looks to be the most likely outcome. Don't be too quick to count the Pats* down for the count yet. 2 bad games don't make them terrible any more than 2 good games make the Jets awesome. Let the season play out and then hopefully we can start declaring the Pats* dead in the water.

I haven't found a place that has a bunch of Bills fans for football yet. But Zebbs in New Hartford is a decent place with the NFL Ticket to watch football.

It blacks out even to Rome where I live. When I first moved out here I did some digging about this. From what I understand the black out covers a certain area based on zip code, but also the range of any station's broadcast within that zip code. So there are stations in East Rochester that can reach Syracuse, therefore Syracuse is blacked out too. Then because Rome get's their CBS from the Syracuse affiliate, it is blacked out too. These laws need to be looked at again. Makes no sense that someone 200 miles from the stadium should be blacked out.

I live in Rome too. Where are you seeing that the Bills game will be on fox this weekend? This map has been right before and by the looks of it Rome will be getting the Giants at 1pm instead of the Bills at 4.

Will be a great warm-up for the real thing the following Sunday.

If it is done by the same company putting on that MMA thing at the casino then I am pretty sure it is Seneca Nation. Is that the place you guys are playing before the Browns game?

There was some discussion yesterday over TSW instant messenger about if the Bills game would be on television this weekend in the Syracuse market being that it is a fox game. I have lived outside Syracuse the last few years and when the Bills are on fox the Giants have been getting priority over them every time. This year the Giants play at 1, but fox does not have the double header and it looks like they will be showing the 1pm Giants instead of the 4pm Bills in everywhere East of Rochester. For all the Bills fans that this affects, I hope it is wrong, but this link has been accurate for me for years. http://www.the506.com/nflmaps/index.html

Great list though after reading each one I was reminded of the piece of my soul missing because of that game. I would add the 2001 home collapse against the Dolphins to that list. It was a terrible season, hadn't won a home game yet, though it was late November, and I had the good fortune to have been at every one. Then when the Bills put up a big lead on the fins to make us feel we were finally going to get one, the Bills somehow snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.... yet again.

This is a bad story. Last thing Buffalo needed was another black eye for the national media. It hurt us all a lot but it is only a game after all. I hope that the word can get back to all the players that this type of idiocy represents a very small portion of the Bills fans out there.

This guy is a douchebag, not to mention your typical arrogant m!@#$ type. The Bills are likely not great, and maybe not even good, but to make these kind of assumptions before any game is played is just plain stupid. If the Bills do end up going 0-16, then you can justify writing something like this. Until then f' him and that whole 5hithole New England area right in the a55! GO Bills!

That seems pretty low to me too. When did you place that bet? I got 50$ at 40-1 at Mandalay Bay just before pre-season started .

+1 and pretty much the whole Panther's team looked pathetic for the majority of that game.

What an f'n idiot. It would have taken two seconds of research to see that the Bills are sold out until the last two games of the season. Just one time in my like I would love the Buffalo to see some positive press.

I can't believe no one has said the obvious being the main theme of this board.... The Bills, hands down, number one MUST SEE attraction. ( Especially if you have the morbid like to see train wrecks and drive slow by car accidents attitude ) j/k I still have faith. Go BILLS!!!

It is tough replacing Van, he was one of the best there ever was. You have to think we can do better than Murph though. I like him, but he is much better suited for color commentary than play by play. And I second the Joe buck comments on here. He is a waste of space and has ruined many viewings of sports on Fox for me. Add Aikman to the mix and you have the worst pair in the NFL imho. Thankfully the Bills are only on fox twice a season.
