Your man cave needed help Most of mine bit the recycle bin a long time ago - though I kept a few of the classics. The new generation doesn't seem to appreciate the past. On the flip side - this NFL is nothing like the past. Can't even decide what a "catch" is anymore

I'll be up in SM on Saturday - missed you last time.

Marvin interviewed with the Bills years ago but stated out loud his reason was passing was the state of the school system for his kids. Apparently her never checked out the OPSD. Definitely not Hutch Tech.

Anyone remember when the early Jills were required to be married ? Time for the League teams to drop the ladies. The PC police have arrived. Mascot abuse will be next.

Marv Levy finally replied - "That guy has been fired more times than a Civil War cannon"

The Chargers have been talking for 10+ years about a new stadium. Qualcomm is a pit - RWS on its' worst day was better. The Raiders stadium in an antiquated baseball field. The Chargers say they get 35-40 % of their money from Orange County - so fans are already driving 60-80 miles to go to a home game. If & when the Rams move to Inglewood - the Chargers would see the casual fan money diverted. Neither the Chargers or the Raiders are getting any support from the locals politicians and are floating this "trial balloon" I am no fan of public money for billionaires playpens and the myth that stadiums spur growth is largely overblown. If the Chargers/Raiders (strange bedfellows indeed), achieve the stadium in Carson it would be 70 miles from my house so about 120 miles from the South Bay (Mexican border) for the southern locals. The game day commute would be interesting, even on a Sunday. Could the Chargers/Raiders make a go of it with the Meadowlands ? Or is this just grandstanding by all parties ?

There was some snow on Mt, San Jacinto when I drove through the I-10 pass on Super Bowl Weekend. It looked nice. What was nicer were the bikinis at the pool - It was 80+ degrees in the Valley for the Big Game

#1 Reason - Past ownership and the clan of insiders that have ruled the Bills from the time of the Super Bowls (and before) R.I.P RWS - you did it your way to which you were certainly entitled to do as it was your team If the new owners even mention bringing in A.J. Smith (in his newly minted role as a consultant) anywhere near Orchard Park - be very afraid.

Mr. Scott - I need that transporter "NOW"

Photoshop couldn't polish this 'turd Nothing for Canada - but there was one sign for Chino, CA - couldn't figure out what the inside joke was

For me, chili just "happens" - no real recipe *LAMP* - I won First Place (ever) in a contest last month - another one coming up in January Being in Mexicali = I have been using some chorizo, beer and mexican beans - different flavors indeed - Won't go to the chocolate side - although many do It's not about the heat (no 6 alarm here) - it's about the spice I have to make a double batch for the office party on Thursday - break out the big pot !

If I was head coach for a day - he woud be suspended for 1 game - this was pre-meditated and cost the team Why bad teams stay in a rut What would Bill Cowher do ?

Nothing in the works - but there are 7 games left I hear they have taken the fun out of Lot 1 - Pole 5

I think he's putting in one of those automated self-service parking kiosks next

A rare Bills Game shown live on the Left Coast - already cancelled work for the morning Home Made Breakfast Burritos and Bloody Mary's at kickoff Secong best thing to Hammer's Lot ;-)

I wonder if Heidi Klum still mows SDS' back 40 ? Inquiring minds want to know

I was at the Nevada / Reno Wolfpack Campus last week and was by the the Mackay Stadium and the gate was open so I walked in just to look around - nice little WAC field Finally someone noticed and said - can I help you ? I said, "No - just here scouting" - I was wearing a PENN STATE T-shirt - One for Lori They're still probably trying to figure that one out One more old bastard reporting in

Blizzard of '85 - at Slomba's (Fillmore Ave) was that you or Hogboy ? Some similarity there We had to shovel the street for a diaper and beer run Sign of the time - Blizzard of '77 was just for beer and smokes - no diapers yet

One of the absolute best things about a City like Buffalo - with so many many ethic "Mom & Pop" shops is the diversity As I have done more extensive traveling in the US - I find it impossible to stomach what other areas call "Buffalo" food Out here - they Call http://www.buffalowildwings.com/ fine cusine (good stock to buy) I have never liked Duff's - but others do - Anchor Bar is worth it - if you are in the neighborhood - I can name two other places I will go out of the way for - they are just corner joints in the "hood" I would cross the counrty for a Bocce Pizza - my wife and daughter say no - they wanted Leonardi's I will be in Buff next week - I will go to Mighty, Louie's, have some great (fresh) pizza on Hertel Ave and some awesome wings at Gecko's Buffalo is about something different on every corner - viva la difference Try and find that in that in the land of corporate exit ramp foodstuffs

Two supervisors at my place are Raiderfanz (and wear their colors) - they don't even dare mention Buffalo anymore The believers are out there

Clarence "Pooh Bear" Williams - like I needed that reference More Pabst

I had the same conversation with him more than once - drinking too Then there was the whole Bills Booster stuff ! Ask SDS about Scott Berchold. Many of us tried - and thanks to Denny and Alicia Bratten (sp ?) I was able to get a lot of info and access back in the day - but the Bills mindset was very anti - technology How else would you explain the ticket office - to this day ? Who remembers when the Bills actually tried to sell tickets in ATM style kiosks at local malls - rather than the Internet ?

Prodigy was pathetic - I was such a neophyte - but it was Ground Zero and it was fun There was BBML - wasn't sure about that and then the great Rochester D&C meltdown And then some (RIT) guy from Pembroke, NY came along - stuff happens BTW - I paid for my Chargers season tix today - I wish they were Bills ones There have been so many contributors but I nominate Deborah

Remember when Danny Neaverth and the gang at Oldies 104 did the parody songs during the Bills' Super Bowl Years? I heard "Red Rubber Ball" by the 1960's boy band, Crykle (http://www.sundazed.com/artists/cyrkle.html) last night and it triggered the memory of one of my all-time favorite parody songs. To set the scene, on December 27th, 1992 the Bills lost the season finale 27-3 to the Houston Oliers in the Astrodome. This was the first time in five years the Bills were not Divsion champions but they did qualify as a wild card team. Lo and behold the Oilers would have to travel to Buffalo the following weekend for the wild card matchup. As things happen, this truned into a memorable game - but I like the song too: Flashback to January 3, 1993 Sung to the tune of "Red Rubber Ball" "We've should have known they'd do it the hard way, We've got the Oilers once again and Houston's gonna pay. This game will be different because it's here in Buffalo, Oilers, you can't run and shoot here in the cold and snow" Chrous: "And I think we're going to blow them out Yes, the Bills will get revenge We're going to beat those Houston Oilers in Buffalo" "We've never cared for Houston all along They wear those sissy uniforms and sing that stupid song. When they play here their defense will be leaking like a sieve, A Buffalo Bills' style butt kicking is what we're gonna give." Chorus "Now last week's in the past and it's time to play football, The Bills are getting serious and their backs are to the wall. At Oldies 104 we know the Bills are gonna roll, They'll beat the Oilers on their way to a third straight Super Bowl. Chorus I'd like to credit the writer/band but no information is given
