  1. The stadium in OP hasn't seen an abundance of concerts, but there have been some iconic ones. This pic is of the late Richard Manuel, taken by Walt Casey, Jr at the stadium in 1974, when The Band opened for Eric Clapton. What's your vote for best concert ever at the home of the Buffalo Bills?
  2. Every other Buffalo kid doesn't have an uncle that is in the HOF and is regarded by a large segment of the fanbase as the greatest player in team history. Every other kid from WNY doesn't have a litany of off-the-field issues with reports suggesting that there may be even more red flags that haven't been made public. Chad Kelly seems to be the last vestige of the old, "Let's bring in (Kelly, Tasker, Bennet, Smith, etc) as coaches to lead us back to the glory days," mentality. Don't forget that just this past fall the kid came back here to watch his brother's high school game and couldn't keep his emotions in check. He has all the talent in the world, but the maturity of a toddler perpetually mired in the terrible twos. It would be a bad bet for the Bills to roll the bones on Chad Kelly.
  3. Both Lori and Cablelady are on FB with me. Both doing well and still making keen observations about the Bills.
  4. I think it's on the Dumont network. Some rabbit ears and tinfoil should do the trick.
  5. Don't know how much he will help, but his name is right out of Tecmo Bowl.
  6. D.C. Tom is on the road as the one and only groupie for Rebecca Black. He's know for ordering drinks with the phrase, "It's Friday somewhere."
  7. If Eichel had played the entire year he would be in the top 7 scorers in the league. He is playing better than the much hyped duo of Matthews and Laine. His ability to control the puck and feather a beautiful pass was on full display in last night's gwg. https://www.nhl.com/sabres/video/kanes-go-ahead-power-play-goal/t-277437090/c-50261003
  8. INteresting thread.
  9. This is bang on. Brady is turning 40 this year. Let that sink in for a moment. I know that he has belied all other players at his position by playing so well at such an advanced age. But the fact of the matter is that time will take its toll on him much sooner rather than later. Can't wait to enjoy the pain and suffering of all of those Chowderheads when that happens.
  10. Yes, it was the last time I didn't hang down into the water. (Ba-dum-ba)
  11. This may be posted in here somewhere, but a pretty good recap of the Bills moves so far and where they stand with the salary cap. http://www.buffalorumblings.com/buffalo-bills-nfl-free-agency-2017/2017/3/10/14880926/buffalo-bills-free-agency-salary-cap-reset-micah-hyde
  12. The mascot definitely had Native American roots. He was called the Saltine Warrior and was retired in 1978 after local Indian leaders protested to the university. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_the_Orange
  13. Seems like the most reasonable way to go about it. Bravo.
  14. Wasn't throwing you all under the bus. I think that most of the newbies, including you two, have been great additions.
  15. Since the refugee boats hit our lagoon there has been a noticeable uptick in Hot Take threads doomed before the "Post New Topic" button is even pushed. Rather than take up legitimate thread space I thought it might be a good idea to place all of the inane meanderings in one place. Here's your chance at the spotlight: What is your Bills Hot Take?
  16. Happy Birthday LewPort71. For his birthday, Mrs. Lewport said, "I want you to climb up those stairs and make wild, passionate love to me." To which L-P71 replied, "Both?" Many happy healthy more, my Bills brother.
  17. I really feel bad for Aaron. His post-football plan was to become a rodeo bucking-bronc rider (no kidding). Probably the only profession more prone to concussions than pro football. Hope retirement is the choice he makes.
  18. Good luck Bobby Woods. Will miss you, you were a pro's pro here in Buffalo.
  19. Now that is the way to make a first post. Bravo.
  20. If not for the Pegulas, the Bills, and most likely the Sabres as well, are in another city never to return. That gives them a very liberal pass to figure out how to best run a sports franchise, at least in my humble opinion.
  21. Signs with the Roughriders, not to be confused with the old Rough Riders. http://nesn.com/2017/03/vince-young-reportedly-agrees-to-join-cfls-saskatchewan-roughriders/
  22. Doesn't surprise me that Simon doesn't know when to use "sole" instead of "soul." Jeremy carries him daily.
  23. He is a point a game player this year. Projected out over a full season, he is right there with those three and actually ahead of Matthews. Since the beginning of February, Eichel is the top point producer in all of the NHL. Patrick Kane, in the number two spot, was five points behind him going into last night's game. Yes, Eichel has arrived and is getting more adept and powerful with each passing month of his young career.
  24. Also, the 10, 4 & 2 on the bottles refers to the notion that one's body needs an extra shot of energy at 10:30am, 2:30 pm and 4:30 pm each day. We used to play a version of 5-card stud called Dr. Pepper, where 2s, 4s and 10s were wild. Winning hand was almost always a straight flush or 5 of a kind.
