I don't, either, but it was fun to write. 

It was perfect! The perspective of a negative nancy to a T. Obviously we have a terrible coach, a blind GM and a quarterback who takes too many chances😀

you can get cbs in Buffalo but it can't carry TNF because it only is on Prime

I mentioned in the Amazon prime thread that I, as American, spending the summer in Canada, tried to watch the game on my Amazon Prime account was not able. to my disgust, to watch the game. I later learned that it was available in my area of Canada (Crystal Beach) on Cogeco the local cable provider from a Canadian channel called CTV 2. I don't know if was available to Canadians with a Canadian Amazon Prime account but I was surprised it was on regular cable TV.

As a Bills fan from when I was 12 to now at age 86 I have always thought Jack Kemp as a player was number one but more importantly also was a great person. Unmatched until now, but Josh is clearly better as a player and seems to be a great person. Go Bills and let's do it this year!!

Whippersnapper!

I'm a little surprised to see my picture. I actually went to that game when I was 11 and have been a lifelong BBFS member since .that time. I know we lost, I think 28-7. Browns had a lot of great players besides Graham and Motley. Dante Lavelli and Lou the toe Groza were others I remember. I was bitterly disappointed when the AAFC folded and the Bills didn't get in the NFL. The excuse from Bert Bell the commissioner was "scheduling difficulties". I think I may have been 13 or so at the time but I made up a schedule for the whole new league including the Bills and sent it to him, but of course never heard back.

One other historical note that may be of interest that in 1965 ( I think) I was a radiology resident living in Boston when the Bills had a big game against the Patsies. We couldn't afford tickets but I wrote a letter to Ralph begging his help and he sent us two free tickets! Of course, we lost that game too!
