  1. Thats where I got mine (the old original wore out). Mine has the HOF patch on it. Don't think you can still get it tho.
  2. Or you could order the signed one... http://www.jimkelly.com/viewproduct.asp?it...temtype=Jerseys
  3. I'm just too much of a traditionalist, gimme the old ones!!
  4. This is the one she bought. You can look around the site as well for others. http://www.portablenebs.com/
  5. My mother-in-law just purchased a pocket one, which apparently is new technology. That way you can carry it with you just in case. The only drawback is that since its new its pretty expensive (300-400 bucks). If you are interested, I'll ask her where she got it (I'm sure it was a website). My wife also has asthma and we purchased one a few years ago at a basic drugstore for about 85 bucks. Its the normal size unit, but you just can't carry it with you. If you are in Buffalo, there is a mediacl supply store on Hertel or Kenmore (can't remember which) in N. Buffalo thats pretty good and reasonably cheap.
  6. Maybe we could use him on the field. OJ used to murder the defense, just murder em.
  7. I read where Peter King was writing an article about the biggest impact injuries to teams. I think Milloy missing 4 games certainly qualifies.
  8. Going on a date with a chick you never met before (ie set up). She sends you a picture, looks incredible in it and you think damn I'm getting a hot one tonite. Then you get to the bar/restaurant and she is not the chick in the picture and is not a hottie.
  9. With Milloy in the lineup, we could have a winning record. Seriously. This D is vulnerable in the deep middle. Thats the soft spot. Milloy is indispensible in that area. Consider the following... 1- Think Milloy would have been providing Clements with over the top help vs. Jax on the play Jimmy Smith caught the ball. At least Smith would have had to worry about Milloy laying him out. Wire was nowhere to be seen. 2- Think Milloy would get beat by Ronald Curry in the back of the Raider end zone?? Or in the 4th quarter on the long pass that led to the FG??? 3- Where to begin vs. NE??? Brady took advantage of the deep middle all day, 1st and 35 and you get 44??? There were other examples. Not saying we win the game, but played better and give ourselves more of a shot. 4- No way the refs flag a vet like Milloy on a cheesy pass interference penalty in the Jet end zone in the 2nd quarter. No obvious push, just a hand on the back. No way. With Milloy, we're sitting at least at 2-2 and maybe 3-1. He is a huge part of the pass defense, which has been sorely lacking.
  10. Lucky Charms!!
  11. I couldn't agree more with this post. He came in and said he was going to return the franchise to glory, even though we had been to the playoffs in 10 of the last 13 years under John Butler and Bill Polian. We were not very far removed from the team that Polian predicted would represent the AFC in the Super Bowl in 99 if we beat Tennessee. It was entirely his way or the highway, and popular and productive players were cut (Big Ted) or let go on less than ideal terms (Steve Christie). All the while he was trying to change what the Bills were all about, making it his franchise and not simply continuing the successes built by others. Hence the hideous uniform change (which I still refuse to buy). Hence the loss of the season ticket boxes. I didn't hear that about the Shout song, but it wouldn't suprise me. Where did you hear that? Finally, when an experienced, proven Hall of Fame coach decided he'd like another shot at the Bills (Marv Levy), Ol Whitey said thats nice, now go play some golf. Not a real nice way to treat a man who has won more games for the Bills than Ol Whitey ever will. I'm suprised Ralph didn't step in there. As far as the business end of it, is it really that difficult to sell water in the desert??? Bills fans will pack the stadium regardless. Our passion for the team is unrivaled and the successes of the 1987-1999 era only fueled that passion more. Expanding the fan base regionally could be the only positive thing he's really done for the business of the Bills. In free agency Ol Whitey has been fine, with the exception of woefully neglecting the offensive line. The draft, well, thats a different matter. He has Gilbrided each second round pick since his first draft. I'm at the point where I hope he deals each and every second round pick the rest of his short, hopefully, career here in Buffalo. Finding gems in the later rounds, well, only Kevin Thomas and Terrence McGee have worked out well, since his first draft. Ol Whitey's draft record is pretty poor. Hence, it may be time for a wholesale change. I hope we could try and lure Ron Wolf out of retirement. I don't know. It may be time to start the search for a new GM, who will return the Bills to glory, and hopefully, restore some sembalance of tradition along the way.
  12. All hell will truly break loose on this team.
  13. I have actually been to the place in Park Slope. Its not a bad little place, with pretty good wings. It is on 5th Avenue and the guy hangs a Bills flag outside of the bar on Sundays so its easy to find. Its really not a big place (I think it could hold a maximum of about 30 people) and is more of a small diner that serves beer and Crown Royal than a true bar. I've only been there twice, but the owner is a nice guy and is from either Tonawanda or Kenmore, I can't remember.
  14. I would be almost impossible to change the game time because the Giants play in Dallas at 1:00. The NFL won't conflict both local market teams (ie have the Jets and Giants play at 1:00).
  15. My schedule says 4:05
  16. Where exactly is Sliders in relation to the Stadium? We're probably driving in Sat, partying in the inner harbor Sat nite, then going to the Stadium to tailgate. We need to scalp some tix but won't be a problem. Ahhhh, Primanti Brothers!! Love the Burgh, but if you want to try something better try FatHeads on the South Side. Might I recommend the South Side Slopes Sandwich. Two pierogis, Polish Sausage, onions and horseradish on a sandwich as big as a plate. Its fantastic. http://pittsburgh.citysearch.com/review/86...rder_by=helpful
  17. Don't worry, a few of us are planning a little road trip down to your neck of the woods later on this month. We'll bring the Crown.
  18. They forgot to mention the 9.5 bottles of Crown Royal we polished off. I think I got home about 1:30 AM after the Raider game and Monday was no fun.
  19. I'll give you one of the best lineups but if you think that Woody Williams, Carpenter or Morris would stand a snoball's chance in hell against Houston, the Yanks or the BlowSox lineups you've been hanging with Ricky Williams too much!!
  20. Whaddya mean another win??????
  21. Well, hell, throw it up there. More than one of us can have the same original thought at the same time. Its a great song and appropriate for this team.
  22. I wanted to do it two days ago but didn't have time to write it. Figured if noone did, I would yesterday. Sorry, American Pie, Don McLean
  23. We're all going to lot 16C, we have kegs of beer donated by McFadden's (4 of Labatts) and we have several grills that will be going. You just need to bring your own food, but you can cook it on the grills that will be available. Bring some dogs or whatever you want to eat. Beer is free!! (God I loved typing that last line).
  24. Here ya go!! Bye, Bye Super Bowl Dream A long, long time ago I can still remember How the Bills used to make me smile And I knew if we had one more chance That Marv could make our fans dance And maybe they'd be happy for a while But now the Bills make me shiver With every loss they deliver Bad news on the doorstep I can’t watch one more rep I can't remember if I cried When that damn kick sailed wide But something touched me deep inside The day the dream died So bye, bye Super Bowl Dream Drove my Chevy to the Ralph for Whitey’s regime Them good old boys at the Big Tree did scream Screamin' this’ll be the day, a win for our team, This’ll be the day, a win for our team Did you watch without saying God Almighty And do you have faith in Flighty Whitey If ole Ralph tells you so And do you believe in running the ball Can running save Drew from a fall And can blocking be taught by a man named McNally Well I know that Mularkey likes to gamble 'Cause why else, would Drew have to scramble You knew it was 4th and three Man, I just have to disagree Man that Drew sure can chuck But then he just has to duck Wrong team, what a schmuck The day the dream died I started singin' Bye, bye Super Bowl Dream Drove my Chevy to the Ralph for Whitey’s regime Them good old boys at the Big Tree did scream Screamin' this’ll be the day, a win for our team, This’ll be the day, a win for our team Now for five years we've been a joke And Whitey’s team knows how to choke But that's not how it used to be When Kelly played for Marv and Bill In a scheme that produced such a thrill The Ralph rocked, cause of you and me Oh and while the opponents were looking around Kelly led the Bills to holy ground 51-3 and the game was adjourned A decisive verdict was returned And while Kelly sat one out Frank Reich proved more than stout The Greatest Comeback left no doubt The day the dream died We were singin' Bye, bye Super Bowl Dream Drove my Chevy to the Ralph for Whitey’s regime Them good old boys at the Big Tree did scream Screamin' this’ll be the day, a win for our team, This’ll be the day, a win for our team Gregg had airhorns in a summer swelter Killdrive taught offense that was helter skelter The players tried for a forward pass And Drew landed hard on the grass 17 up 31 down and falling fast With Whitey, our success was not meant to last The offseason he gave us great hope Only to watch our Bills play high on dope I’m a fan and how can I cope, Please just pass over a rope ‘Cause our players tried to take the field The opponents just refused to yield Do you recall what was revealed The day the dream died We started singin' Bye, bye Super Bowl Dream Drove my Chevy to the Ralph for Whitey’s regime Them good old boys at the Big Tree did scream Screamin' this’ll be the day, a win for our team, This’ll be the day, a win for our team Oh in there we were all in one place But the Bills were such a disgrace With no time left to start again So come on Drew be nimble, Drew be quick Drew just fumbled then threw another pick Ralph is Whitey’s only friend Oh and as I watched them try to engage My hands were clenched in fists of rage No football coach born in hell Could break that Whitey’s spell And as the Bills just failed to take flight And there was no white knight I saw Whitey laughing with delight The day, the dream died He was singin' Bye, bye Super Bowl Dream Drove my Chevy to the Ralph for Whitey’s regime Them good old boys at the Big Tree did scream Screamin' this’ll be the day, a win for our team, This’ll be the day, a win for our team I met Kelly who sang the blues And he passed me a bottle of booze And he just turned away I went down to the sacred Ralph Where I’d heard Shout! years before But Whitey said the music wouldn't play And in the streets the children screamed The fans cried and noone dreamed But not a word was spoken The Ralph’s spell were broken And the three men I admire most Bruce, Andre and Thurman They caught the last train for the coast The day, the dream died They were singin' Bye, bye Super Bowl Dream Drove my Chevy to the Ralph for Whitey’s regime Them good old boys at the Big Tree did scream Screamin' this’ll be the day, a win for our team, This’ll be the day, a win for our team
  25. BUMP This thread is too good to let go away.
