Best Bills player to wear every jersey number (51-99)
ticketssince61 replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
never heard of him either - it can't be possible that he is the best 87 we have ever had! Just looked him up - played in 1960 and 1961. RIP 2015 -
For future reference, ESPY tickets are available for general purchase thought ticket outlets for about $75 It is not like the Oscars where you have to be someone or know someone to get in I have gone a number of times and there are a ton of players milling about before and after that you can meet

Cool year-by-year graphic of the Bills’ all-time TD leaders
ticketssince61 replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
A bit of a surprise that Elbert Dubenion is tied for 5th Just looked at his stats - in 1964 he caught 42 passes for 1,139 yards and 10 TD's - an insane 27.1 yards per reception The 3rd highest all - time in NFL History -
Around 5 years he "lead the charge" before the game I happened to be seated next to him on the plane back to LA and saw him showing the video of it I met him 2 other times once at the Rose bowl where he took a pic with my son Generally a very friendly and approachable person

His most significant contribution was being traded to get us another 1st round pick to get JA

Bills place TE Zach Davidson on IR...ending season
ticketssince61 replied to Dablitzkrieg's topic in The Stadium Wall
On NFL.com it said "Bills put TE on IR" - My first thought was that it was Knox's injury -
That was the first regular season Bills game my Dad took me to - we had 3 pick sixes

on NFL network they said something along the lines of the rest of the leagues should be ashamed that they let JA get Dalton Kincaid

Any Bills Fans ever been to the NFL Draft (I'll start)
ticketssince61 replied to Sweet Lou's topic in The Stadium Wall
Many years ago, the draft was not a spectacle - no tickets or reservations were required - and was held at the Marriott hotel in NYC I happened to be in NYC in 1989 at the time of the draft and just walked in for part of the 3rd round, just in time for the Bills to draft Don Beebe Was pretty boring as there was nothing to do/see between picks - no videos / highlights / interviews ... -
McBean’s draft history and who we draft at 27
ticketssince61 replied to LEBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
Probably because the best players are the ones who leave early and don't need another year to prove themselves -

Draft Success Measured by AV - Part III
ticketssince61 replied to JGMcD2's topic in The Stadium Wall
It would be interesting to factor in draft picks that were used to trade up (or down) by counting a given up pick as a "zero" I think Beane trades up too much and costs us a lot of cheap depth and often times those players would possibly have still been available at our spot It is especially painful when the player selected in the trade turns out to be terrible (Zay Jones, Cody Ford, ...) -
Major Sports Alignment and Playoff Qualifying
ticketssince61 replied to Mike in Horseheads's topic in The Stadium Wall
One thing I would be strongly in favor of is seeding based on record and not automatically giving a division winner a home game it is ridiculous that 9-8 or 8-9 teams play home games against 12-5 teams -
Will not happen since it is a Buffalo home game

Interesting Article on Big Money QBs
ticketssince61 replied to IronyAbounds's topic in The Stadium Wall
It is great to pay your up and coming QB on the cheap rookie deal (Hurts, Burrow,...) and fine to pay your superstar QB (Mahomes, Allen, ...). The problem is when you overpay a QB that is good but not great (Derek Carr, Kirk Cousins, Kyler Murray), and you are stuck paying them elite QB $ without the elite QB results. You are then in the quandary of "he's not good enough but there is nobody else out there that is better" -
Jim Johnson was McD’s mentor. Where’s his defense?
ticketssince61 replied to oldmanfan's topic in The Stadium Wall
I thought the same thing, but someone recently mentioned to me that is a penalty AND the time can be put back on the clock! https://www.sbnation.com/2017/3/28/15066542/nfl-rule-prevent-team-burning-clock-repeated-intentional-penalties -
Mel Kiper is back and you won’t like it

Considering our history, I would stay away from any one named "Zay" -
AFC championship presale link
ticketssince61 replied to quinnearlysghost88's topic in The Stadium Wall
The best thing about ebay was that it gave you a sense of where tickets were actually selling and not just being listed so you knew what to ask and what to pay for seats. One other nice thing was that you didn't have to worry about scammers (i.e. Craigslist) and there are not the ridiculous fees that Stubhub and Ticketmaster charge (approx 10% to seller and 20% to buyer) FYI = it looks like ticketmaster is really ramping up the fees for the game in Atlanta - 15% to seller and 20% to buyer
