You should have done like me for mine and the wife's trip to Spain and Portugal; wait for the schedule to come out to know when they have their bye, leave right after the Titans game and return just in time for the Dolphins game.

Bills vs Raiders. Monday night. Ahmad Rashad.
Wow!
I was a pretty young kid but I was there too and that stands high on my list. Great game.

Kelso's no better than 4th, I'd put George Saimes, Tony Greene and Kurt Schulz ahead of him. Freeman and Henry Jones were strong safeties. It actually has been a pretty strong position throughout team history, Kelso was good, J. Byrd was very good for a couple of years, Corey Graham and Troy Vincent were decent, Bill Simpson was good for a couple years (big INT in playoffs).
Was looking to see if someone would mention Bill Simpson. Not saying he was the very best but he was damn good, and underrated.

Thanks for stepping up. I too really appreciate and enjoy reading this kind of daily update.

That Talking Proud woman always used to grate on my nerves and still would, but I remember it well enough from when it was new never to play it again.

yes, happy birthday man!

Yes, the Bills have a tendency to screw up these kinds of situations. Having extra high picks can make a team more willing to take "risks" with their picks, i.e., picking John McCargo with an extra first-rounder.
That said, they brought real quality into the scouting and personnel department this offseason, so I'm cautiously optimistic...
Good point. Hadn't thought of that but can see that happening. To be really forward looking, it's crossed my mind that with this many high picks, say they do get it right and select multiple really good players and we find ourselves in a situation about 4 years down the road when all their rookie contracts are running out at the same time and we won't have the cap room to retain them all. Good problem to have, I guess.

As always, thanks. Next best thing to being there.

May have already been stated in the thread as I am too lazy right now to thoroughly check, but I could see the Patriots pulling a Chris Hogan and then he has a big year for them and we get more bad press for tendering him too low. Not a prediction, mind you, just a bad vision. Would love to keep him around.

I'll start. I live in Augusta, Georgia. I'm not sure how many Bills' fans are around here. I'd be curious to see which fan lives the furthest from Buffalo, New York geographically.
Atlanta. Recently moved here from Denver. May need to change my username :-)

Do you mean Steve Howe, the guitarist from Yes?
You beat me to it.
-
two more:
"we need to look at the tape"
" we need to get a hat on a hat"
Actually, many of these others listed annoy me more but thought I'd add these couple of lesser but still overused sayings. Good topic!
-
yes. They have to see the pinto show at 11:30. It is a must
Thanks man! I was wondering what time that went down. Happy holidays.
-
I am flying in from the Denver area with my two high school age sons for this game (yea, I paid a boatload of $ early in the season). If perchance the lot is already full, is it still cool to park elsewhere and come in on foot to say hello?
-
It was indeed amusing how often on TV i could hear booing when a penalty was called on us, loud cheering when the Bills made a good play, etc. Certainly we've seen this from time to time with other road games, but for me I have never noticed it as much as yesterday. I thought Bills fans last year represented very well when we were at the Bills-Broncos game, but yesterday looked almost like a home game or neutral site. Very nice!
-
It reminded me of the call vs. Baltimore a few years ago when our WR Lee Evans caught a pass and went into a scrum, the pile just stood there for about 5 seconds, then the ball fell out (probably from fatigue). It was in overtime. The Bills were at midfield, and in a good position to win.
But Woods was stripped of the ball yesterday. He should have put his knee on the ground and moved on.
Exactly. When multiple guys have you like that you should know you aren't going to break free and when they are working on stripping you just drop to a knee, your rear end or something to put yourself down before that can happen.
-
I've noticed that too. Of all our off-season acquisitions there may be none more important than bringing in Roman.
-
Last year I looked into it but as stated by others, you couldn't start the feed for any of the Sunday games until after the Sunday night game ended. That is way too long after the Bills have typically concluded their game for me to avoid all media so as to be able to watch it without already knowing the outcome.
However, I looked it the NFL Game Pass FAQ the other day and I believe it says that all the early and late afternoon games can be viewed as soon as the later afternoon games are done. Still less than ideal, but that is definitely better. Hadn't been able to find a price yet, though, just the free trial link.
-
Thanks man. As I am way out in Denver and not making it to any of these, I love these reports. Both from you and Mike in Syracuse, traditionally. I know we have some other good reporters here too.
-
That was certainly near the top, but Randy Moss 'mooning' the crowd in Green Bay was my favorite; made even better by Joe Buck's hysterical, Nancy-boy response.
And while I hated Miami with a passion back then, Randal Hill's six-shooter against Texas in the '91 Cotton Bowl is pretty high on the list too.
I always thought the same about Joe Buck's response. I never cared much for him before that anyway, but that sealed it. I believe he called the pantomiming "disgusting". He probably thought that is what he should say to look cool and ultra professional.
Where were you during "wide right"?

I was at the game with a seat 19 rows up from the field and exactly at the 30 yard line that was the line of scrimmage for the kick.
