I really like them both. Roxy Music just kinda came out of nowhere. Couldn't pass it up. Didn't get great seats, but it should be a good show!

I saw X open up for Blondie a few years back... X was fantastic. $50 is a bargain, these days. For me, shows I have tickets for: Dale Watson- last week of April The Who- first week in May Roxy Music/St. Vincent - early September Roger Waters- early October Sure there will be plenty of smaller shows in between...I have really missed seeing live music, more than anything over the last two years.

If they ever bring back Terrence McGee, I am set!

Jordan Poyer going into last year of his deal

You gotta keep Oliver... -
Jordan Poyer going into last year of his deal
Buftex replied to Matt_In_NH's topic in The Stadium Wall
I know that Beane doesn't like to get too far ahead of himself, but it seems like he could create more cap space, for this season, by extending Poyer and Diggs, should a good player become available this off-season. Oh man, just as I type this, mention that Terry McLaurin could become available! He's fantastic. -
I think we have a great team, a great QB, and we have a great chance to win it all. However, I do get kinda nervous about all the high expectations...and to be honest, the cockiness of our fan base has been a little unsettling. I guess I am just not used to be that supremely confident...I can't get there, until they actually do it.

I think he was being facetious?

Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me. It seems like it could be headed that way. But, not for 2022.

I would assume it is very similar to GamePass, with one major exception...you would be able to watch games live, as they happen. If you live in the US, right now, you can't do this via GamePass.

Bills jersey number changes and new player jersey numbers thread
Buftex replied to Logic's topic in The Stadium Wall
I hate it too! I know, ultimately it doesn't mean that much, but I really don't like the "anything goes" policy with the jerseys now. It may just be an aesthetic thing, but growing up, learning the game, the jersey #'s have some kind of uniformity made it easier to understand what you were watching at times. It isn't as big an issue if you are watching your team, but when you are just watching a random game, and you are not as familiar with the players, it can take a little longer to kind of diagnose what happened on a play.- 50 replies

Beasley had three broken ribs last season?
Buftex replied to Jerry Jabber's topic in The Stadium Wall
He was awesome in 2020. -
Maybe they can get Ralph Kruger to coach them up!

My earliest memories of the Bills start in 1972. Lived through the OJ era, and enjoyed the hell out of the Super Bowl era...but I think the "era" that sealed my lifelong love of the Bills was the short, but exhilarating "Talking Proud" era when Chuck Knox was the head coach. 1980 was the first year that I had season tickets (I was 15) and on opening day that year, the Bills broke the Dolphins streak. It is, to this day, the single most exciting sports moment I have experienced live. I had season tickets from 1980-1987, and I have been to about 200 Bills games...regrettably, I have never been to a playoff game. But for me, Fergy liming around on a bum ankle, playing his heart out in San Diego is my "wide right" moment. I was devastated after that loss, but it trained me to approach sports the only healthy way a Buffalo sports fan should...with high hopes and lowered expectations...win or lose, I find this team to be a joy, more often than not. My only moment of doubt in faith came when Dick Jauron was the head coach. If he hadn't been fired the season he was, I seriously might have stopped watching them. I hated those seasons so much. Absolutely loved those teams...1980-1981 are still my favorite seasons. If the Super Bowl runs had never happened, I can't say with 100% certainty, but I think I would still love the Bills as much today. That isn't to diminish my love of those 1990's teams, but the early 80's teams are forever my touchstone when it comes to Bills football. To this day, I have missed only 1 Bills game in 42 years...seen a lot more bad football than good. I like to say I "live and die" with this team, but to be honest, I don't do the "die" part as hard as I used to. I am just glad they are still here.

Except we didn't benefit from the rule...it comes too late. Wait 'til next year!

Bills match Bears Offer Sheet for Ryan Bates, 4 yr deal
Buftex replied to nato7412's topic in The Stadium Wall
I wonder, did Beane overplay his hand with Bates at all? He probably could have offered him less, and he would have been happy to sign a contract, knowing that he was was returning. But he let Bates go out and find another team to draw up a contract for him. It looks as though the Bears structured a deal they didn't think the Bills would match. Glad he is back, but wondering if this is one of those few times where Beane got a little too cocky. -
Everything is staged, everything is a conspiracy...haven't you learned that by now?

My first year as a season ticket holder...still my favorite year.

Licorice Pizza was a movie lover's movie...would make a great double feature with Once Upon a Time In Hollywood. Lost in all the commotion over Will Smith and Chris Rock is that Venus Williams had a "Janet Jackson" moment during Will Smith's acceptance speech... they kept cutting to the Oscar logo while Smith was rambling on...I guess the glue didn't hold.

Funny, this past week, I heard a draft "expert" on GR55 saying that Hall was elite, and what set him apart from other RB's in the draft was his "vision". Said that Iowa State ran an offense that emphasized running backs who are patient, and can make defensive reads on the fly. The day before that, they had the guy who does the "Locked On Bills" who is also a "draft expert" (Joe Marino) say that he was not high on Breece Hall, at all, because he "lacked vision" required to succeed at the NFL level. I can't remember ever hearing such polar opposite assessments of the same player. Marino thinks Hall would be a terrible pick for the Bills... though I think he is one of those who is not generally inclined toward taking RB's in the first round. Personally, I have no opinion on Hall, just thought it was interesting, as I have seen a number of people mention him as their preferred pick for the Bills.

Looming Stefon Diggs Contract situation - What do you do?
Buftex replied to CountDorkula's topic in The Stadium Wall
The salary cap will go up...salaries will continue to go up. What seems absurd today, will be a bargain a year or two from now. -
Rico, you hate everyone! I never claimed Whaley did a "great job", just making the case that he gets blamed for a lot of things that were out of his control.

Beane should kick the tires on Stephon Gilmore
Buftex replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall
Lucky for us, Griese won't be doing broadcasts this year...he is now the QB coach for the 49ers! -
Thanks all!
