  1. You're one of the few geezers left on this board. I had a case with Dan when he was practicing law in Buffalo in the 1980s. One day I said to him "Dan, why does your name sound familiar to me?" He responded "I used to be the quarterback for the Buffalo Bills." Talk about a conversation stopper!
  2. Anyone know anything about the two OTs on the practice squad?
  3. I think this is my favorite combination for away games, and the opposite (blue on white) for home games. Everything else looks like pajamas.
  4. Anyone up for a trade? Haushka for Vinatieri, straight up. Each team pays the airfare for their guy.
  5. It's the socks, I didn't have them on.
  6. For those of you who think it wasn't a weird game... "The Bills’ defense stopped the Browns on six consecutive plays and eight snaps, including two penalties, from the 2-yard line or closer. Seven of those snaps were from the 1. In doing so, Cleveland became the first NFL team in 26 years to run six plays from an opponent’s 2-yard line or closer on a possession without scoring, according to ESPN, which cited the Elias Sports Bureau." I wonder when the last time was that this happened and the team making the goal line stand also got a safety and still lost? When was the last time you saw a 48 yard PAT attempt? When was the last time you saw an "incomplete pass" that traveled maybe an inch?
  7. You don't think it was a weird game?
  8. I had a bad feeling about this game
  9. Should have faked the FG and had Bojo run for the first down
  10. I've got a soft spot for old Lofton. He's all over the map but it was fun listening to him.
  11. Move them to the AFC East then move the Bills to the AFC North with natural rivals Pittsburgh and Cleveland. Cincinnati can move to the west where they'd play against KC.
  12. Did Phil Dawson kill us more than 1 game, or is it just a recurring nightmare of his two long wind-blown FGs in the 8-0 game?
  13. My biggest worry is the ghost of Ralph. We're talking supernatural stuff here.
  14. I remember the 8-0 snow game where Moorman had a snap go flying over his head and he kicked it out the back of the end zone for a safety. First 8-0 game in the NFL since something like 1927. I remember the 6-3 game where Derek Anderson won the game for the Browns by completing 2 passes all afternoon for all of 23 yards. Bleacher Report called that the "worst game ever" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/270428-worst-game-ever-buffalo-vs-cleveland-review Weird stuff happens against the Browns. I'm already losing sleep over it.
  15. There was no reason to text security. It was just obnoxious. In America, at least until the next election, people have a right to say what they want. And I have a right to complain about it.
  16. My visit to the Ralph for the Eagles game was a challenge. Never mind the 40 mph winds, the rain, the massive lines at the refreshment stands (for which I missed a Bills TD) or the fact that the Bills got crushed. The place was infested with Eagles fans. And I have to say that these were some of the most obnoxious fans I've ever seen. I expect them to celebrate when their team does well but they were constantly sticking it in our faces and doing their level best to remove any remaining enjoyment from the outing for Bills fans. The only reason these guys didn't get their faces pushed in is that Buffalo people are nice. The Philly fans lived up to - maybe exceeded - their woeful reputation.
  17. Female hockey fans are the best
  18. Who's going to both? I'm flying in from overseas for this, meeting my son who is coming in from the west coast. Couldn't have asked for a better time to see both Buffalo teams!
  19. Why DO the Jetsons live in the sky???
  20. They spent a lot of time talking about Josh heaving the ball into the stands after the 2 point conversion, and even had pregame video of him talking about hitting the press box. I haven't seen any video that shows where the ball landed. Anyone know?
  21. Easy way to shorten the games: on out of bounds or incomplete pass, start the game clock when the officials spot the ball on the line of scrimmage.
  22. Remember 2008 (said the old man). Let's hold onto our seat cushions just a little while longer. And get off of my lawn.
  23. What if Dolphins-Redskins today is tied 0-0 after regulation, do you want them to keep going until someone scores? They may still be playing on Tuesday. And the fans will have left at halftime.
