  1. On the episode of "30 for 30" about the 1983 draft, Bills' GM (at the time) Norm Pollom explained that they took Hunter at 12 because they knew they would be able to get either Marino or Kelly at 14 (they had two first round picks).
  2. I'd take 3 pounds off her hips and put it in her boobs. Then I would make sure my will is in order.
  3. KCRW.org Eclectic 24 - all music 24/7 commercial free
  4. A calico Poontang
  5. Just bought a house in March. Haven't moved in yet as renovations are ongoing. I'm hoping I'll be happy in my house. Otherwise, I'll be very unhappy.
  6. I have an ESOP, a 401k, an IRA and some mutual funds. I had a nice savings account until I bought a house in March. My retirement statement says I'll be at about 68% of where I need to be (they say I need to be at 80% - of current income). I plan on the lottery getting me over the hump.
  7. I would look for someone exactly like my fiancee. But maybe a little more on the Eva Longoria side for looks. That would be perfect.
  8. 2010 Prius. I get between 200-250 MPG. I only drive it from the tops of hills.

  10. McKelvin. That fumbled kickoff return was a dagger.
  11. "This is the year of Super Bowl 50, the 25th anniversary since our first SB appearance." This is hard to believe; that is a long time ago. The Bills, as a franchise, was only 8 years old when I started following them. THAT seems like a long time ago, but the first Super Bowl? Remember it like yesterday. Before the kick, my wife couldn't stand to watch and went upstairs. Wish I had too!
  12. That 250-yard season-opener was an away game played at New England.....
  13. This is also one of my favorite memories. 1968 was the first season I followed the Bills closely, and I was obsessed with them as a 9-year old. My father used to take us for car rides when there were home games and we'd listen on the radio. I still remember the ups and downs and thrills of that game. I think there were one or two other interceptions (one returned by Butch Byrd for a TD) that were called back by penalty. It was a thrill to have found the AFL Highlights package of that game about 10 years ago on eBay. In fact, those were also the good old days - when you could openly buy recordings of old Bills games off eBay and could watch a lot more old stuff on YouTube before the NFL cracked down.
  14. I also remember being about 10 years old and having to go downtown on West Mohawk Street to the Bills' offices to buy tickets. I recall standing in line on the sidewalk with my Mom kind of scared because it was a scary section of downtown.
  15. I just purchased an 8 x 10 copy of the "Hit" from Bills photographer Robert L Smith. Iconic. Going to have it framed. I remember they used to play hits like the Beatles "Lady Madonna" as background music to the highlights
  16. Obviously, you do not understand the concept of "pyshosamotic". ....and another thing: I get harder than Japanese arithmetic. THAT'S porn star-level stuff.
  17. Not to brag or anything, but I too could physically perform at a professional level. Porn star. Well, maybe not the physical dimensions (if you know what I mean), or the stamina, or the disregard for my health, but I'm all in on banging hot chicks. I'm porn-star level when it comes to wanting to bang hot chicks.
  18. Add to it that it's been home/away/home/away for all these years - those gotta be Powerball-type odds.
  19. I love that guy! They did a story on him a few years ago - he seems much more mellow now. I wish I could post the CNN video; it was hilarious. Showed fat drunk guys jumping into a sidewalk hot tub, people screaming in bars ("they did the same damn thing last year!!"), and a guy literally crying in his beer. A masterpiece. I transferred it from VHS to DVD but haven't looked into how to convert it to a video format to upload onto YouTube.
  20. Exactly. I mean, why switch it up now? Actually, I went to the last SB in Atlanta and had a great time despite the loss. Ended up being interviewed on CNN when we arrived back in Buffalo. Was involved in a class action lawsuit against Small World Travel because they didn't provide the tickets as part of the charter excursion. We ended up scalping them off some car dealers that got them as an incentive. Paid $1,000 for each ticket - all in $20s. I'd love to go again - but it will be pricey.
  21. This isn't surprising if you read "Collision Low Crossers". Rex comes across as lacking the ability to get tough with guys, especially those he likes. Discipline is not his strong suit - there's lots of evidence of that. Hopefully he's learned from his mistakes and changed....
  22. In a skid row motel with some hookers and blow
  23. No need to PM; just hit reply - I promise I won't look.
  24. The wild card with Rex is, from reading "Collision Low Crossers", that his heart can interfere with his head when it comes to personnel decisions. It was clear from the book that Rex would become emotionally invested in certain players, overriding objective assessment of their talent. Rex stuck with guys way too long and other coaches on the staff began to question it. So, I guess given that information, it's not an either/or proposition when it comes to believing in this staff or not. I believe in Rex's ability to judge talent, but maybe not so much his ability to make objective performance-based personnel decisions.
  25. This wasn't my first game, but I was there too; I was 11 at the time. I think the tickets were $7. We had them pinned on the bulletin board for weeks. The morning of the game, my Dad was having chest pains and took me for a walk to tell me he couldn't go to the game. So my mother and sister took me. It was horrible - drunk college kids spilled wine on our blanket and burned cigarette holes in it. OJ goes down with a knee injury, right below us. All in all, a miserable day in my young life. My first game was the 48-6 thrashing by the Raiders in 1968. Another bummer. How i remained a Bills fan after those two experiences, I'll never know.
