  1. Home games-------Paul McGuire club seats. Have had seasons for 4 years. First year in the clubs. Last few years up in 313 which were really good seats. But I wanted to spoil myself this year. For two years traveled 9 hours one way to get to a home game. Didn't miss any including that 6-3 Cleveland barn burner. Now live closer, therefore an upgrade in seats......Away games at the American Legion with other diehards and dollar seventy five, sixteen ounce yeungling drafts. Can't beat that.

  2. I was around when the drinking age was 18. One thing I've got to say about the kids now as opposed to us back then is that they're much more aware about having a designated driver. The young people I'm around now actively ask who's going to stay sober to drive. And the bars provide free Cokes to DD's. So, I figure if you're old enough to fight and die for your country you should be old enough to go into a bar and have a beer.

  3. Troy or Trent (whomever) had a great opportunity with the Bills. At first I thought He was going to be a good to above good QB. The int in the ( I Believe) Dallas game and then the big hit in the Cards game.......Plus the sub par coaching during the Dick regime was too much for him to overcome. i wish he would have done well....And I wish he would have done well in Buffalo. But he didn't,for whatever reason. He seemed like a pretty decent guy. I wish him well except if he ever plays the Bills or any team in the AFC east.

  4. Great listen, Thanks. I think my favorite line was that "These guys come to work every day". They're hungry, they like the little success they've had, and they want more. As for Merriman, I think some is mental. To be away for two years is a long time. He's too young to have totally lost it. He needs a breakout game where he gets a couple of sacks, some pressures, and he'll be fine. Really he's already been helpful by helping to bring Barnett and Morrison here.

  5. I think after one preseason game, if we don't shutout whoever we play this board will be calling Darius a bust. Even though he only played one play.....This will be the worst draft ever because the Bills, even though its preseaon, didn't draft Stanzi because whoever he plays for completes 2 of 7 passes for 12 yards. You know, we could of had him in the fifth.......... I've loved this draft.....For the first time in a long time I feel we're a better team then we were a coupleof days ago.

  6. I took my current girlfriend. We've had seasons for the the last two years. And now our third. At the first game we went to she turned to me and asked, Whats a first down? So she's now a Bills fan and even though she knows the players etc. She can still be pretty numb about some things. I asked her if she'd like to go to the Bills Draft party. She was all over it. I thought...hmmm.... I must be really good at getting her into Bills football. Turns out she thought they'd be giving out draft beer. But she asked questions and when Darius came out and talked she was amazed at his size and how humble he was. We got a picture of the Jills and had them sign it for her son to put in the spank bank. Was interested to know if anyone here attended and if anyone else has turned people ( who grew up in the area ) into Bills fans......Tell your story

  7. Went to my first Sabres game last week in a long time. Like over 25 years. Against Nashville. Used to have season tickets for the Portland Pirates. $99. for seasons. Worked out to $3. a game. Cost $5 to park. But back to the Sabres. Sat 7 rows behind the penalty box. Right off the red line. Best seats I've ever had at a hockey game. Even though the Sabres lost it was a fantastic experience. The Bills provide me a great tailgate, usually a so-so at best game, and a fun meal after the game. Its also an all day experience. The Sabres provide me about 2-3 hours of almost nonstop action that is exciting from start to finish. I don't have to plan a tailgate or the after game activities. Traffic is gone after half an hour. I'll never give up my Bills seasons but I'm now sold on going to more Sabres games. I'm also looking into getting some Bandits tickets because lacrosse is such a great sport.

  8. This year they left off Bon Jovi, Kiss and the Beastie Boys. Personally don't care for any of them. But I'd take any of them before I'd take Neil Diamond. Wrote good pop hits but rock and roll? Give me a break. Although you got to admit at the stadium everybody sings along to Sweet Caroline. I thought Cooper, Waits and Dr. John deserved to get in. Leon Russell was questionable. The others? Not so much. Who the hell is Art Rupe? I agree that a lot of people that are in probably shouldn't be there. But if you've ever seen Etta James perform when she was in her prime, she could put a lot of these white boys to shame.
