This could get very interesting.....I'm thinking steel cage or some sort of squared circle. By the way GOBILLS78, I was at that Cardinals game in '90. Had season tickets in the tunnel endzone at the time and anyone who sat at that end of the stadium for that game and stuck it out is a diehard. That had to be one of the worst weather days, if you factor in overall sh-- from early in the morning to the end of the game. Breezy with a light rain by mid buzz (10am), getting colder, low 40's by good buzz (noon), much colder, windy, heavier rain just after kickoff and then SLEET with high winds!! Obviously the Cards weren't ready for that kind of weather. It just got uglier as the day went on but had to be one of the funnest games to be at, if you were prepared for the weather. Gotta love the good ole' days when the Bills team actually used the hometown weather in their favor.

Great Thread!! Things that I miss have all been mentioned but some that stand out: Bills season tickets - N3 Row3 seats on the aisle going to Sabres, Bandits and Bisons games the nice summers, here in Orlando, they tend to be a bit brutal but winters here are amazing all the lawn fetes and beer pumped out of the side of a truck blue light driving down RT 14 and sampling wine from Geneva to Watkins Glen Ziggy's on Main and Eggert, never really a big fan of Mighty Taco all the food, you name it, I miss it, especially a Royal Sub from anywhere, John and Mary's in Cheektowaga was the best all the people through the years that I've tailgated with, it numbers in the hundreds and everyone of them is like family I don't miss the same crap everyone has mentioned The endless winters, weeks without sun the negativity, it still baffles me every time I go back that I still hear the same crap the ungodly high taxes just to support generations of families living off the system the ill informed people who vote for someone because their name sounds familiar The one thing that really gets me though is that my two young kids won't grow up with all the variety of things to do and the close knit neighborhood that I grew up in. I'm from the Cleve Hill area in Cheektowaga and growing up, from sun up to sun down, just about all the kids in the neighborhood were together doing something, either in large or small groups but everyone basically got along and did things together. Buffalo(WNY), for the most part, is a large family spread out over miles but it's a place that we all still call home, no matter where we are today.

Per V-Coach, Cary Harris and Lankster have signed.

What Parking???? Went there a few years back for a game and tailgated in a friggin parking garage filled with mostly Bills fans that couldn't figure out where the hell to park in that Shthole for a city. Miami is just okay. Old Cleveland Municipal was a dump but had character. Where else could you go and sit 100 yards from the field in the end zone and still have better seats than the people on the 50 yd. line. Tampa isn't to bad, lots of atmosphere and tons of "scenery" with very little material covering themselves. The worst I have been in is Jacksonville though. At least Atlanta has parking within flying distance to the stadium. The worst parking at the Ralph is far better than the best parking in Jax. The morons that occupy a large number of games in Jax really make you wonder if they weren't bussing in the fans from the backwoods of Georgia and the Carolinas. The best part of Jacksonville, from a Bills fan point of view, is that when all is said and done on gameday, the most of their own fans that occupy the seats are maybe 30,000. The rest are from the opposing team or tarps.

This is very true. I read the board for a while before joining and still come here most of the time just to read. Just because my post level is low doesn't mean I'm not following TBD, I just don't bother dealing with the BS on here most of the time.

I'm for it if it means bringing back games being played over Labor Day weekend. This BS with the networks determining when the season starts and ends is a load of crap. Also, the increase in active players on gameday would be a bonus and if Jauron is still around when/if this is implemented, he might actually somehow benefit because of the ease of his training camps.

Amen. Until Edwards proves that he is a capable #1, there really isn't a need to worry about #2 because we won't be winning anyway.

This is why I argue with the throngs of Miami fans down here in Orlando, that Marino, as great of a passer that he was, was not a great quarterback!

WOW!! That brings back some great memories. I think I was there for nearly all of the home TD's and a bunch of the road ones too. (left Buffalo in '96) Great times. Amazing arm on that #12 guy. I think we tend to forget just how amazing they were after watching the crap we've been burdened with for the last decade and especially the last few years. I wonder if the current coaching staff even has a play in the playbook that calls for a WR to run a slant or post into the middle like Reed and Kelly made a living doing? I guess you need a QB with an arm to make the throw but even the short dumps into the middle can be made with even Edward's arm.

B I N G O ! ! !

Sounds pretty right on to me. This year is going to be a put up or shut up year for both the Coach and QB, IMO.

He only made it because he is black. That is obvious and not racial unless you are black. Enough said.

Thanks for the bad news Lori. I was hoping there was an outside chance that an "Empire Sports Network" type of channel was a possibility in the future but that looks very unlikely.

I'm with you on this cursed. I'm here in Orlando and apples to apples, I would take this over Buffalo anyday. Not to say I don't miss back home, this is just a different lifestyle. I'm not saying Orlando is any better, it's just different. If I could afford to commute back for every Bills game, I would but it's only going to be 2 this year. Other than the Bills, Sabres, Canadian Beer, some freinds and a wider variety of local food, there really isn't anything enticing about Buffalo except it's where I was born and raised.

Early on in the season, up to games 10 to 12, this is a great idea. Keep ML fresh until the weather turns then utilize him pounding it the final few games of the season, leading the Bills into the playoffs for the first time in a decade.

That is CLASSIC!! Probably one of the best exchanges in movie history.

If those two run wild for the Bills in games 1-3, TO is probably going to lose it. He will have a meltdown on the field and probably pull a Columbine in the lockerroom.

Lee - 7 TO - 9 Those numbers look awfully familiar.

This is true, dib and LA always have some quality to add to the site but the fact that Numark's has a Bill's logo nicely placed, I have to give him the nod for Best Avatar Ever!!

A4 - B3 - C1 Considering the young players the Bills have in at OLB right now, Harris and Compliance LB, the strategy to move Walker and Butler, the right move would be to shore up the DL considering it hasn't been address except for an UDFA.

Numark, I think, IMO, you should win some sort of contest for that avatar. I'm voting for you for Avatar of the year if there ever is such an honor.

If white people only buy white we are the racists. I see this country going down the crapper faster and faster every day. I'm only buying white. If a negro is at the counter at McDonalds, am I a racist to ask for a whtie person to serve me? This is F()cking ridiculous.

Did he just toss another interception to the Browns and yank himself trying to chase someone down?

First of all, this point of the post is based on the team basically sucking this upcoming year and who one would want as a head coach to replace the soon to be departed Jauron based on a suck a$$ year. If the Bills do suck, one position that is going to be scrutinized heavily is the QB position. To this point in his career, Edwards has done very little to me or most anyone on this board, to show that he is a ligitimate everyday quarterback. You can take his stats and toss them out the window because it's his game management, demeanor under fire and leadership abilities that fans and coaches alike are going to look at when all is said and done. I, as a fan of this team, am not going to be to happy next off season, to be looking for a new coach for one and a new quarterback. I would love everything to work out this year but the point of the poll is based on worst case scenario. I am not going to be thrilled if TE has his glorious QB rating over 85% and a great completion percentage bacause he is able to complete a 2 yard dump off on 90% of his throws because he is to gun shy and cement headed to stand in the pocket and find the open receiver. It's time for Edwards to put up or shut up this year. The rest of the team doesn't have time to wait another year or two for Edwards to catch up with them. PERIOD
