  1. Late to the Tribute but donation made today. This is another reason why I will put our fans up against anyone else's in the country, and it will help others too!
  2. This is a day the D needs to make a statement against a solid team... Are you ready for some Footbaaaaahhhll?!?!
  3. Having a feeling it has to do with a birthday so probably a lower # ...I was feeling 27 (for Tre White) - but will go lower with lucky #....15?
  4. All good guesses and didn't see #1 so i'll go with that as in #1 in AFC East Bay-Bee!
  5. i missed a week because i was used to making (most) picks as late as Sunday AM in old league but now need to do it before Thursday night football... Love stuff like this like FF - gets the whole day to be a competition. Speaking of competition - i saw a t-shirt that said : "My wife and I laugh about how competitive we are - BUT I LAUGH A LOT MORE !" lol
  6. Love it! Those would all be awesome! In Boston it would be something like: ... "Kraft's shaft get the last laugh."
  7. I believe you are going to be psychic. The Bills seem to have no issue with hiring coaches to get the most out of their players and could absolutely see this happening. Question is - could a player ever hire these guys on their own to get the most out of their position/career?
  8. Who else wakes up on Game Day like a kid on Christmas morn'? Go Bills!
  9. Greatest game was The Comeback Game with a dear friend who is no longer with us and yes we stayed for the whole game. Followed closely by 51-3 over Raiders - lost my voice in the first half and was worth it. Recent games were The Opener against the Colts and also when we played the Buccaneers and Tre White sealed the game by causing the fumble as Bucs were driving... Worst game - a few come to mind - The strike/scrubs game against Giants (we won but boring), then there was the long ride home with my cousin who is a Steelers fan when we lost to them and a chance for playoffs, last season's home finale in the pouring rain was tough but we were already heading to the playoffs so didn't bother me as much. My son (now a huge 23 year old Bills Fan and a dedicated NYS Teacher - bought us the tix to the last game of the season - last year as Christmas gift for me. It is cool being a Bills fan, raising your kids and letting them root for whoever they want - and they pick The Red White and Blue of the Buffalo Bills!
  10. Welcome to the west side sir! The Retreat in N. Greece has done a great job with Bills games, they promote it on FB too. TC Hooligan's has a lot of TVs and wood fired pizza (I suggest the Ferrari Pizza - very spicy). Bathtub Billy's was THE go to place but haven't been in a while - sure it is still a lot of fun. Go Bills! By the way - check out Turning Point Park (off Boxart St) it isn't that far from your area and they built a boardwalk that goes over the water - pretty cool.
  11. I'd like to put a plug in for Draft Sharks - Great website! I have used them before and won FFL several times, once without a waiver pick up until week 10! The thing i love about FF is it would have me care about games even when the Bills were bad, But his year with pandemic - i didn't join PAID ones and joined 2 free leagues and Yes - One league I have Singletary and the other have Moss. Both have Allen (he was still hanging out there) and One has Bills DEE-fense and the other has Mr. Diggs. I may call that team "Ya Digg?"
  12. Maybe this is a topic someone would start for a different thread (not me) but what will be the Bills first play from scrimmage? Yes it depends on what Defense Josh sees but: A.) Run by Singletary/Moss B.) Pass to TE C,) Pass to WR D.) QB Run (as Daboll has called before) My thought is "C" - a quick Pass Completion to Diggs. We want to show off our new QB/WR Connection...
  13. The start of every season, I wake up like it is Christmas Morning... In spite of the 2020 chaos - we have a heckuva Team and it makes it easier to be enthusiastic about our competitiveness...
  14. https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/news/report-panthers-release-lb-andre-smith It said he was projected to make the Panthers 53 man roster earlier this month but others stepped it up. Buffalo's Special Teams could be something Special...
  15. UK is an awesome place - need to get back there again! Wade definitely made the most of his opportunities last year, if he can chip block (or catch) on passing plays - even better chance of making the roster. Not to get off subject - were you a Bills fan before Wade? - Where do you watch the games and are there other Bills fans around you?
  16. Thank you for the reply and astute observations. Glad you are optimistic and interesting how you could see a great way to get him in a rhythm to be even better. I am not blowing smoke - I respect your opinion and wanted to see your take - sorry I have been offline all day - TGIF to one and all and Go Bills!
  17. I am pretty sure Gilmore was the one who looked so unhappy when he was drafted - i will never know what is going through their head - but when your new fans are watching you on TV - C'Mon man - show a little emotion! You are right though that he was solid here, didn't like him going to the Dark Side... Quick question on your earlier comment about not liking the Josh Allen selection. I was not happy with the pick but have come around a lot. You have a much stronger opinion of skill set evaluation - so curious of your opinion of him now? Not trying to set you up sir - hoping like me that now you like the pick better in retrospect?
  18. There was a Buffalo Bills TV special on in Rochester last night and they mentioned we never had a TE make the Pro Bowl - I thought over the years one would have made it (names come back like Reuben Gant, Jay Riemersma, Pete Metzelaars,...) but they say this year Knox could be the first one to make it. Love it!
  19. Sad situation. Chances are she experienced this type of behavior in her parents and it perpetuates itself. Hope she gets help to break the cycle.
  20. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family during this time of sorrow.
  21. When NFL guru Greg Cosell was making rounds of NFL camps - he raved about the size and the effort shown by Johnson at St. John Fisher. Hoping he continues to turn heads - especially the other teams quarterbacks.
  22. There was a poster back in the day of Kelly and teammates with the title "Kelly's Heroes" referencing the classic movie ( with Clint Eastwood, Sutherland Rickle, etc). Maybe "Allen's Army" can work? It is cool that the fans have a nickname -not all teams have their own nickname and "Bill's Mafia" is called out by broadcasters across the USA.
  23. I live in Rochester, NY but was running a job down in Winter Park, FL and was looking to hire a mason for the job and made calls to a half dozen contractors. Up pulls a pick up truck with a Bills logo as the front license plate - what an awesome surprise! He had moved there from WNY. Fast forward - of course - I hired him for the job!
