  1. McCoy is the idiot not Sully, obviously. Bills at all costs? Not likely. Go Bills!
  2. I'll remember the game against the Fins at Memorial Stadium in the early '70's in the blinding snow and unable to see anything on the field. I think Garo Yepremian kicked a filed goal in the fourth quarter for the win. Anyone else there?
  3. Bills 20-17 on field goal with 23 seconds left to win. We have +3 on turnover differential for the difference.
  4. I'll be okay with the season if we can just stop the opponents running game. I hate making run-of-the-mill running backs look like Jim Brown every week. Let's lose 10-13 and hold them to under 100 yards rushing. Then look forward to next year when EJ has a year under his belt.
  5. Marrone and Hackett are coming from college and used to college players which, it seems to me, gives EJ an edge i.e. fresh, young, teachable unlike TJ and Kolb.
  6. Li'l brother Joe is entering draft this year. Let's get both.
  7. Okay, I don't say much on this board but I do read a lot of posts. My only comment about Tebow is that he reminds me of Joe Kapp. Most of you are too young to remember Mr. Kapp but his label was a "football player" who played quarterback. His throwing motion and ball flight were just ... well ... ugly. He completed 47% of his passes, was unappreciated by every team he was on and yet took the Vikigns to the Super Bowl. He won games - period. "[He] developed the reputation of being a tough player and a great leader. While most quarterbacks dislike being hit, Kapp was the opposite. He loved to hit and when he took off on a run he’d try to run over defenders ... Kapp is the only player to quarterback in the Super Bowl, Rose Bowl, and the Grey Cup" according to WikiPedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Kapp. Tebow is a football player who happens to play quarterback and his throwing is ugly but he wins whether it's a national championship with Florida or playoff games with the Broncos. Bills could do worse.
  8. 64 - Remember game in old Memorial Stadium around 1972 sitting behind a concrete pillar during a blizzard against the Dolphins drinking from a flask to keep warm. I think Dolphins won 3-0. Some things never change.
  9. SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH Raised in Utica, NY; St John Fisher grad; Lived in Rochester 20 years; This is the year the pain ends. Hopefully. Well, maybe.
  10. Reporting from Salt Lake City, Utah: Huge Giant's fan growing up in Utica but attended college in Rochester and switch to Bills after my first game at Memorial Stadium in early '70's - I believe. It was a cold, blustery winter's day and the opponent was the hated Miami Dolphins. I sat behind one of the infamous pillars in a blizzard and did not see one play clearly but was hooked for life. Anyone else remember that game? When was it? Go Bills!
