  1. I would have been in 10th grade at the conclusion of the trial. They herded us into the library to watch the verdict live on TV.
  2. I remember seeing on SportsCenter that the Bills had signed Chris Spielman and being so excited that my sister came downstairs to see why I was yelling. It's a shame that he only wound up playing one full season in Buffalo.

  3. It actually happened to Tom Brady during "The Match" a few years ago. Phil Mickelson loaned him a pair of rain pants.
  4. Thurman going to Miami was brutal but I understand his side of it. If I remember correctly, he found out he'd been released from ESPN before anyone from the team had let him know. He was pissed! He said that if the the team had come to him and told him they couldn't afford him, he would have retired. I saw him speak at a fundraiser in Corning in June. He still looks like he could play. So does Andre
  5. Didn't he used to play a clip over and over of Gregg Williams stating that the 2001 team had the talent to win the Super Bowl?
  6. I found him entertaining even if he ticked us off now and then. I remember Wade Phillips and Lonnie Johnson were 2 of his favorite targets. He also used to have a column in the old "Shout!" newsletter that I enjoyed reading. The last I remember hearing him on the radio was in Rochester. He became Bob Matthews' co host for awhile. I always found that funny because I remember hearing Bob Matthews bad mouth him and the "Who loves ya baby" shtick a couple years prior.
  7. Misery by Soul Asylum. Specifically the line "frustrated incorporated"
  8. Spot on. It's the equivalent of somebody telling their wife or girlfriend that they don't want to breakup but they want the opportunity to see if there is somebody better looking out there. Edit- iccrewman112 beat me to the punch.
  9. I parked in a private lot on 20A about 3 or 4 houses down from the mud lot and paid $50
  10. A group of us are driving up tomorrow from Elmira. 🤞 The trip up should be without incident until we get to Wyoming County
  11. The last 2 links are from the 35th anniversary VHS tape that came out in 94. I still have it. I also have the 50th year DVD. That was really good but ends with the Bills signing TO as if that was going to be the turning point of the franchise
  12. There were 7 Hall of Famers selected in the first round of that draft. Richard Dent was also drafted in the 8th round that year. So 8 overall. Incredible!
  13. https://xxxxxxxxxx.com/buffalo-bills-arizona-cardinals-stefon-diggs/ This article discusses the possibility of the Bills trading Diggs to the Cardinals for one of their 2 first round picks. I personally don't see a team giving up a first for a 30 year old WR but that's just me. I was curious to see the rest of the board's opinion. The armchair GMs on here know more about cap implications etc. than I do.
  14. I thought I read somewhere that heated vests, socks etc were allowed now.
  15. Bottoms Up Tap System! There was one Bills game I attended where they used that system. I'm pretty sure it was the Bills/Dolphins Thursday night game in 2012. Haven't seen it before or since. I live in Elmira, NY. There's a bar here that has it. I guess it's super expensive to install but it's more cost effective long term. It practically eliminates over pours and foam building up in the lines. It is pretty cool.
  16. I was at that game. He threw a beautiful long TD pass to Marquise Goodwin that I believe tied the game and forced OT. I'll never forget the little kid that was sitting in front of us. He turned around to high five my brother. My brother grabbed him and lifted him up over his head so he could high five the people behind us. 🤣
  17. I had Spectrum News on while I was getting ready for work this morning. They ran a story about the team, interviewed him, showed him running routes, and teasing again that he was going to play tonight. A few hours later this happens. What a clown show this guy has become over the last few years.
  18. The Chiefs had all three timeouts left. The Bills played off and protected the sidelines. Middle of the field was wide open. It was garbage coaching. Not even up for debate. Squib kick and play your normal defense, the Bills win the game!
  19. Patrick Mahomes and Andrew Luck = Bert and Ernie. Can't take credit for it. That was a Frank Caliendo line
  20. Brilliant move by the guy who got the trademark ahead of time. He's probably got a big check coming his way.
  21. Not one play but Andre Reed catching crossing routes and the YAC made me want to be an NFL WR. Unfortunately when you live in a small town, are 6'1", 200lbs, and slow in high school they make you an offensive lineman. I had pretty good hands though. 🤣
  22. This isn't an issue anymore. Stadium roofs are no longer inflatable. That was part of the reason the MetroDome roof collapsed. The roof of the Carrier Dome was replaced in 2020 with a fixed steel roof. I read that snow removal isn't even necessary anymore. It was with the old inflatable dome.
