  1. Same here. I remember as a kid seeing him a lot on TV and he always seemed to have himself in the right position to make these great over-the-shoulder catches without turning for the ball or breaking stride.
  2. He used to crack me up with his antics, then have me shaking my head, even as a young lad, when I'd see a big gain wiped out by a penalty
  3. Despite my screen name I now live here too and am taking the same approach. My (somewhat limited) experience is the longer you hold out the better price you'll get, but there's something to be said for certainty in knowing you already have them. If I do find something really good tomorrow or later for local transplants like us I'll be sure to share the knowledge with you.
  4. drove from San Antonio to Tampa (without a ticket) for Super Bowl 25. Managed to get one about an hour before kickoff
  5. I'm in Chamblee - only been here 6 years. Been to a couple of good Bills Backers bars not far from me, one in Norcross and one on Buckhead. Met Andre Reed at the latter a few years ago. Of course, as one might suspect from my participation in this thread, I have Sunday Ticket every year and typically watch almost every game at home. The wife and I also get regular comments from other Bills fans when sporting Bills clothing. At least a "Go Bills" if not a full blown conversation.
  6. I told my wife and son "watch, we'll squib kick it here to run a little more time off the clock and avoid the possibility of a big return". When Bass kicked it out of the end zone I was surprised, but with only 13 freaking seconds left I of course still thought we should be o.k. As a Bills fan for over 50 years I should have known better to think that.
  7. You could be on to something. In my simple observational opinion, ever since he's been on the team I thought he's looked no less than decent while on the field. Granted, much of that limited playing time was preseason against lesser talent, but whenever pressed into regular season duty, not just last week, he's looked good to me. Beeen saying to my son for a while now I'd like to see him in there.
  8. Yeah, I too heard him call Allen "Tannehill" and neither Levy nor his cohorts corrected it. He had a similar gaffe earlier. Early on he was also belaboring the point about Bills fans not really taking over in town or in the stadium and how overblown that was by others.
  9. The wife and I are driving in from Atlanta in about two weeks and catching one of these practices has been in our plans and would be one of the trip highlights. I plan to try tomorrow @ 10:00am to score some tickets to the 7/31 practice as soon as the link goes live for non-season ticket holders. But, if any season ticket holders here believe it not to be too uncool for me to ask for the presale code, please PM it to me so I can try today. It'd be greatly appreciated.
  10. Not particularly rare of anything, but for me it's Marshawn Lynch and was that crappy road design with the yoke on the shoulders. His behavior frankly made me a bit embarrassed to even wear it, but this many years removed, and not being in WNY myself, it's kind of safe to do so now 🙂
  11. Same here. Thoroughly enjoyed it, and it was cool meeting old bills like Pete Metzelaars, Joe D. and Steve Tasker, having McBean come chat at the fence, etc. AFAIK no Bills were seriously hurt, either.
  12. Also one of my all-time favorites. Playing sandlot football as a young boy I used to declare "I'm Bob Chandler". I think of him as one of the masters at sidelines and end zone toe tap inbounds. Like someone else said, very similar to Fred Bilrtnikoff. I seemed to recall he died way too young and just went to Wikipedia to confirm, and discovered something I hadn't known: "Chandler's niece Sarah George Chester and her daughter Payton were two of the nine victims, along with Kobe Bryant and his 13-year-old daughter Gianna, on board the helicopter that crashed in Calabasas, California on January 26, 2020." Bob Chandler
  13. I was a 14 year old lad there with my dad and older brother. Great memories, other than our dad forgetting where we parked in the stadium lots and us wandering around looking for it for what seemed like forever until enough cars were gone to finally spot ours.
