    I was born in the Philly area.....never really latched onto the Eagles.....kinda liked the Raiders.....fast forward to me moving to Rochester NY in 1981 for college.  Many of my frat bros were Bills fans......I actually went to a monday night game once, maybe 1981? with my brothers where some A$$clown decided to climb out onto the wire holding the kicking net up.  For the life of me I can not remember who they played other than the crowd was chanting fall fall fall fall.....idiot finally made his way back to the setas are and security proceded to pummel the living crap out of him!!

     

    Fast forward to 1985.  A work buddy was ALL over the Bills and asked me if I wanted to go to the Bills opener game, Jests I believe.  I looked at him laughed and said the bills SUX, why on earth would I wanna go to the game?  He pleaded to my inner drunk and said - "For the Tailgate"!  Good gawd if that didn't do it.  I was a single seat ticket guy for awhile....Kelly signed, I was a season ticket guy.....for 22 seasons, 10ish of them in the Kelly Club seats.....a few more single games sprinkled in after the club seats got stoopid expensive and the heated seat was a huge question mark, and then I moved to So Flo.  I walked into a bar in Sarasota in 2018 and it was snowing SIDEWAYS....I grabbed my wifes arm and I said "look honey, right there is the only snow I wanna see, is on my TV."  Havent seen any snow since 2018.  Honestly tho I have not missed one game since moving to So Flo.  Even when I was down in Key Weird, multiple times, I managed to see the games.

     

    Like Marv said where would you rather be than right here right now???  I had a AWESOMESAUCE of a ride while I lived in Rottenchester.  I am happy I am outa there but still a BILLS fan will many many many other transplants down here with me!!!!

     

    GO BILLS!!!!!

    I was at the game you described in 1981 and sitting in the endzone where the guy climbed up the cables to the net as you described. Was against the Raiders and the Bills had the game until Art Thoms (Raider D line) picked up a fumble n returned for a TD with a couple minutes left in reg. Fergy won the game throwing a TD to Amhad Rashad for a great come back victory. ....... Yeah..... me n my buddies were partying hard but the guy climbing the cable made us look Einesteinesque. .... And that was hard to do!

  2. These are some pretty cool stories. ..... I wound up watching with my gramps, Kemp, Gilchrist black and white TV era. I was about 8 and promptly painted my helmet white and made a stencil of a black standing buffalo. (came out really good) .... Went to play against some kids on the other side of my small town. It was then that a well to do kid (color TV) told me that the colors were red and white. ...... I think we probably got in a fight. ...... I'm still stubborn and bull headed but could not possibly stop pulling for our Bills if I had to. ..... All that being said. BRING BACK THE JILLS

    No it doesn't. Beane's best overall draft class was the Josh Allen pick. Period, end of story. Josh Allen is worth more to the team than every one of Beane's picks from the 2024 draft.

     

    That said, I could definitely see Beane's 2024 draft working out well.

    The difference is that now our Bills are established in a positive light. They were building five years ago. Now they are as close to rebuilding as we have seen them. They lost some very good players, so they drafted more towards need than they have in most previous years. ..... I think what we're seeing is our team/this organization learning and doing what has been demonstrated by other upper-level teams over the years.  ..... We are seeing the growth of strong organization. .... It's cool. Enjoy it.     ...GO BILLS

  4. Point being, with all of the 20mil a year entertainers/athletes. The man has class enough to do this. And I admire it. ..... There are many other good souls out there (of course) and ya gotta admire them too but in the face off the greedy, arrogant ass wipes..... He took the time for a person he didn't even know existed. He didn't have to. This is what we all need more of. ...... Plus, he's one hell of a bad man on the field! ......... GO BILLS

     

  5. I just saw a story on WKBW Buffalo where our Josh sends a Signed jersey to a Texas family who's teen son died suddenly. The boy was a huge Josh fan. I hope everybody gets to read it. This is just another example the young man, (our guy) continuing to show genuine human decency and caring. We couldn't have a better "face of the franchise" Or ambassador for Buffalo and WNY. ..... Go Bills!!!

    Keon runs so vertically and is rigid with his arms. This is stuff that the Bills can work on him with. Along with his natural talents he will be just fine. 

    The taller the sprinter the more upright they will tend to appear. ... I think he has Jerry Rice speed. "first two steps. Not so much" ...... But when he gets past those first few, he's the fastest on the field. His ability to control his coordination at the highest speeds is his gift.  ....... I would like to

    see, not his 40 time but 10yrds to 40. That's where it all goes on and the big boys run up your back and take advantage of their length. ..

    And if he doesn’t and the offense stalls it’s because ‘no receivers’. 

    Cmon man..... The team started to find cohesiveness in the second half of the season. Josh. Shakir and Kincaid.  .... There's more focus and continuity growing with out (although I loved him like everybody) Diggs distraction. .......   Now the staff just get to put the puzzle pieces on the field without a super ego say WTF? ..... I hope I'm right. ..... It's got to make things a bit easier for the coaches and Josh to focus on what should be done rather than who should do it. .... This is true.

  8. Many people don't feel the FO has done enough. "they're sitting on  their hands" .... They are bringing in guys who have been productive players at some point in time. That simply makes sense. Especially when most are still young men. Worst case is they must be cut. ... These guys are definitely worth a look.

  9. I never followed JTO..... That was some great insight and analysis. Thank you for posting! ...... Yes, both of the drops mentioned above should have been catches. On the other hand Shakir showed really great hands. This kid is gunna leave his mark. As far as Kincaid being affected by DB physicality, I think somebody with his ability can grow past that at this level. He's a smart kid who will continue to get stronger.

  10. Off topic...sorry...... It feels like a punch in the chest loosing Diggs and I'm an older man. .. Can't imagine what a 10 year old feels.? (he had to go) ........ As far as Beane goes..... You must be Sh....ng me. ... Not perfect but easily best since Polian. ......... Some of us have become jaded. .....  GO BILLS   ...... I'd rather try replacing Diggs than Josh. ..... Ya gotta remember, this is the NFL 2024.

  11. It seems obvious that Diggs ego and antics got old and for a team that preaches family/togetherness he decided not to fit. Look at the start of last seasons mandatory practices when he created a distraction. Even something as minor as flossing on the sideline a couple years ago showed how he craved the attention. The man was great but he got sick of playing here and forced this move. .... We'll never know how much chaos/distraction he caused or what the effect on his teammates was. Mentality and togetherness play a huge part.... sports psychology is a real thing and it seems he became a detriment by choice. ..... shame. 

  12. You need to have guys fill out the roster and (hopefully) create competition/motivation as much as possible. With the team up against the cap, this is all they can do. ... It blows my mind that some complain about Beane. Some bungholes don't seem to realize the $$ situation. Pissed that we didn't acquire Justin Jefferson and Aaron Darnold this offseason.  ... Get a grip

     

  13. The T. White goal Tending Academy was one of the coolest things ever to happen in Buffalo sports!! (ya get it or ya don't) .... In these days of greed and ego, awesome to see a guy so humble! ....  Fan since the 60's n I gotta say, T White may be my all-time favorite. How could ya not love the guy! ..... GOOD LUCK MAN

  14. The Bills still have elite talent as do many teams. Team chemistry, talent, coaching and fate/luck (injuries, b ounces) .. Man, it takes a lot of variables but at least now days we are poised to be strong contenders again. I am kinda surprised we haven't got one yet but it could come any year. And that sure beats the hell outta what we had for so many years. Beane is damn good. Go Bills!!

    This is true, his top picks always seem to be at position of need, he has alluded to this in past drafts, for Beane BPA is more so fourth round and lower, and even then it is for backup need, 

    This is due to evolution of the roster. When you have a strong core and you're a consistent contender, the dynamics change. Think about it.

  16. I don't think anybody can be compared to Hill but the stats you presented may reflect the fact that He's been catching passes from Mahomes for most of his career. I would like to see us draft the monster from Texas DT Sweat if possible, in the first and then move up in the 2nd to grab from the deep receiver class. That being said. It would be pretty tough to pass on some of these wideouts in the first. ..... Conclusion? .... Beats the hell outta me!

  17. Whatever.... I'm thanking Jordon Poyer for balls to the wall bleeding for our Bills! .... Good luck xept when you play my team. God bless and have the best life can bring.
