  1. Voted for the McKelvin game but the worst loss of all time to the Pats was the "just give it to 'em" game in 1998. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/199811290nwe.htm
  2. Romo and "Hello Friends" are doing the Bills-Pats game this week, I believe.
  3. is it that bad this year that SU cannot even get a single vote in either poll? http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/rankings
  4. Thank you, but another Veterans Day here at the salt mine. Raise your hand if you're a veteran and at work today.
  5. I was at that Pitt game also and the only thing that happened to us was one Steeler fan tried to spit on us on the way in...fortunately, the bastard missed. Before the game, we were on WHAM, who was broadcasting from a bar across the street from the stadium. After the game, we were just walking to our car and came across the Kelly clan and Papa Joe Kelly invited us over to partake in food and beverages. What a super guy he was! Saw Jim briefly as he was being heckled by Steeler fans walking in the parking lot to the RV. Jim pretty much ignored them and spent his time in the RV with his family.
  6. I believe you're thinking of the Meadowlands during the Bills-Jets MNF game in 1988.
  7. It's easy, Buffalo and New Orleans are relatively small markets with little national following, whereas both the Pack and Bears have a national following despite their records.
  8. Best Bills road trip: Green Bay. Great atmosphere and even better fans. Worst Bills road trip: Cleveland. Went to the Thursday night game there a couple of years ago and the place was full of a-holes.
  9. Ah, yes, the Roland Hooks game in 1981...and the catch before the Hail Mary was more spectacular than the TD. I remember looking down a tunnel in the upper deck and seeing guys piling out of the bathroom to see what the hell happened...many with their pants still down around their knees!
  10. Earlier in the season, Philly fans turned the 27k seat StubHub Center in LA into a home game and stomped the Chargers. I expect nothing less from West Coast Bills fans, who should fill 26k of the 27k seats. If it becomes Orchard Park West, the Bills should have little trouble from a Charger team that could be 3-6 by the time we play them.
  11. Umm...that game was in New England. Now, that was a great moment too. Freddy Smerlas leading some players back out onto the field and doing a victory dance, while we fans stayed and savored the victory.
  12. It's been awhile...the year we could have gone to the playoffs by beating Pitt in the finale, I think the Bills won in Seattle @SF in 1992 @ LA Raiders in 1991 I can't remember any others
  13. 1974 opener and oddly, it didn't sell out, which meant that if you weren't there, in WNY all you had was the radio.
  14. Halftime of the 1990 AFC championship and we were up 41-3. The high-fiving, hugging and other highjinx in the concourse...we knew we were going to the Super Bowl.
  15. I started with the 1996 D&C HyperBills, then migrated over to the TBD we know today.
  16. Got an F in "Beginning Weight Training" at SUNY Brockport. I never went to the class, applied for an incomplete, with every thought of finishing it the next semester after an internship on Capitol Hill. Well, I was fortunate to land a job on the Hill, never went back and needed only two classes to get my degree at George Mason. Administration at Brockport refused to pull the F off my transcripts after my numerous attempts to do so. I'm still bitter about it to this day. I have a 3.5 ungrad GPA, a 3.75 in my major, political science, and that freakin' F stands out like a sore thumb. Bastards.
  17. Really? Imagine in August buying tickets, a flight and reserving a hotel for a Sunday game, and only 10 days out be told, "Umm, we moved your game to Monday night." Not going to happen. And the above is the primary reason the NFL will not flex Monday night games.
