I actually used to work clean up @ RICH stadium while I was in high school, got me into games for free, heck I even saw the Rolling Stones and others for free back then. Parking lot detail was the BEST part of the job, you think they are bad trying cleaning inside the stadium

To Seattle for a 4th rounder pick in 2011 and some sort of conditional pick
Jay Glazer reporting via Twitter also same trade

Just a thought, and I may be wrong but wouldn't Brohm have run the scout team when he was with Green Bay? Maybe we should see what he has to offer if (most likely when)Matthews decides Trent should sit the rest of this one out

Couldn't T.O. help him out?

Much as it pains me to say it. I have to go with OJ. You might as well call the Ralph "the house that OJ built" with out him the stadium would not have been built and certainly would not have held 80,000+. Also you can thank OJ for the "streaking buffalo" logo. The man WAS the franchise, without him, no one would have known the Bills existed at the time (much like now)

Sorry Guys - Long time fan here, 20+ year season ticket holder, and I just can't do it anymore. I quit. At least until training camp, I will barely pay attention to this franchise. Except for the draft, will definitely follow the draft you know just to see if they are really turning things around but until then...well maybe just a glance every now and then to see what kind of staff Chan is assembling...other than that it's over I tell ya...OVER! (what's that number for text alerts?)

Nice letter, but the St Pat's parade is in the 1st ward. Not the second (nitpicking I know, but it was the first thing that jumped out at me)

1) They don't care what the fans really want
2) They abandoned the colors of the AMERICAN FLAG for this hideous color scheme - smooth move

I can't believe that fans are lower than the 1984 & 1985 seasons when the Bills had back to back 2-14 seasons . There were a little over 20 thousand people at the last home game in 1984 & in 1985 half the home games had attendance in the 20 thousands. The Bills were losing players to the USFL and people were driving around with bumper stickers that read "Bring Pro Football Back To Buffalo" In 1985 the Bills fired Kay Stephenson & replaced him with Hank Bullough (nicknamed the doctor of defense), who would be fired in 1986. One highlight of fan discontent of Bullough came on a Monday night when a caller to WBEN's Hank Bullough show said to the coach "If you're the doctor of defense, you should be sued for malpractice."
One thing that you have to remember is that back in 84-85 Bills fans did not yet know the feeling of being a championship caliber football team (mid-sixties teams aside). Fans now can still hark back to the glory days of the early 90s, and as the saying goes the higher you go the farther the fall..

Next year will be my 20th and I am on the fence right now, I grew up in the shadows of the Ralph (even played some volleyball with the infamous hammer!) So I have been going to games since '73 sneaking in as a kid, cleaning up the stadium after, just to get in for the game etc. Right now I am having a hard time justifying the expense and time commitment to watch this exercise in futility. The game day experience is what keeps me coming back. my guess is come next year my answer will be...Just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in

Dunaway lived around the corner from me growing up (in the shadows of RICH Stadium. First time I met him was at a garage sale my mother was having. All I remember was how huge he was, and my father being PO'd because he was at work at the time
