The Real Buffalo Joe

Before. Long before. It's been around since like 1982. I could be wrong here, I think I heard that the name comes from the fact that the bar takes up two lots where the address are 9 and 11. Best wings in Buffalo. I always go there when I go home. Definitely worth the trip in. It's just a little hole in the wall place.

Without a doubt. Best player? Arguably. Mot famous, yes. Go to any random place in the country, and take a survey, and ask who Jim Kelly/Andre Reed/Thurman Thomas/Bruce Smith is. Football fans would know, but that's about it. Ask who OJ Simpson is. Granted they wouldn't know him as Hall of Fame Buffalo Bills running back. But they'll know who he is.

If he was a Bill we wouldn't have used him right, not had a QB to throw to him, and he'd be a nobody.

I hate the NFL family so much. Plus, if you look closely on the commercial, they're buying an Emmitt Smith Vikings jersey. But it's just good natured ribbing. It comes with the territory of being a Bills fan. Just like being a Jets fan means hearing about the butt fumble, Eagles fan means hearing about throwing snowballs at Santa, and a Patriots* fan means cheating. I have friends who are fans of all of those teams and we talk smack to each other all the time. That's what being a sports fan is all about.

So we should just erase one of the greatest players in team history from existence as if it never happened? Are we gonna pull a Joe Paterno and take away his yards and records too?

I am too. But guess what, we have the longest playoff drought in history. Not to mention, PFM makes fun of every single team. The best way to not be the butt of every loser joke in the league, is to not give them a reason to make them.

You realize this is what's called humor, right?

She better not. Love him or hate him off the field, he's one of, if no the greatest player to ever wear a Bills uniform.

It wasn't bad by any means. It's just not as good as other places. I prefer the Nine-Eleven Tavern in South Buffalo. What you did there. It took like three posts, but I saw it.

Who would have guessed that one? Lol.

I know this has been brought up before, but I don't like how, despite having warm weather Miami and San Diego on the schedule, the only December home game we get is Green Bay. I'm glad they only gave us one, since we rarely sell out, but The Ralph is a tropical paradise compare to Lambeau.

Awesome. Completely forgot about that. I remember the day that happened but was too upset that Reggie Bush was talking smack about our women, and doing snow angels in our endzone.

The Music City Miracle Travesty hurts the most. Partially because I remember it more. Also because it shouldn't have happened. I've heard plenty of Bills fans say that it was in fact a legit call. I don't know. I literally haven't watched the play since the day it happened.

Wide Right without a question. Those other three, we lost to the better team. That one should have been ours.

And Anchor Bar, although the supposed birthplace of the "Buffalo Wing" is overrated.

Possibly. He complained about it because they didn't have more common beers. Bud, Miller, Blue etc.

The sad part is everybody on this board, especially those of us who live out of town now, have had this exact conversation numerous times.

This is somehow worse than a Tebow thread.

That movie had so many unanswered questions.

Haven't been home in a few years. My dad complained about some new place that only serves craft beer and home made hot dogs, like it was a bad thing. I'm coming home for Christmas and I want to check this place out. Which one is it?

I used to have his playing card that I left up on the wall of my desk till my boss told me I had to take it down because it creeped people out. NFL network did a segment a few years ago on the top ten best rushing seasons of all time, and Juice wasn't even there. Love him or hate him, guilty or innocent, one of, if not the greatest running back of all time.

Look, I want to use tuel/tool puns as much as the next guy. But c'mon. We can also use puns like. Manuel isn't automatic. Nobody read the Manuel. Watching this team is Manuel labor.

Really? I'm the first one to say that the Super Bowl weren't legit, but you can't deny the dude is good. Or at the very least, better than the players I mentioned drafting before him.

Oh c'mon! Am I the only one angry about the fact that they're covering this, and not his storied Hall of Fame football career, or even his illustrious acting career.
