  1. I seriously doubt we get a Sunday night game...it's probably in Al Michaels' contract that he doesn't have to come to Buffalo. I'm predicting an early November Thursday night game against the Jets (yes, again) in NJ, and a home Monday night game in October vs. Jax.
  2. Thanks for the laugh!
  3. I still have an unopened bottle of Project Pasadena champagne...almost opened it after the Bills clinched the playoff spot, but it remains stashed away for the big celebration (I just hope I'm still alive to see it)
  4. Brits find NFL football second only to golf as "most boring sport." https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2018/01/11/london-will-host-three-nfl-playoff-teams-this-fall-but-survey-shows-little-interest-among-brits/?utm_term=.377da9763160
  5. This sequence, and the one that gave the Jags the FG right before halftime, determined the game. Passing the ball from your own 10 with less than a minute to go, only gave the Jags free timeouts which they use to kick the FG. That sequence was on Dennison alone.
  6. AJ McCarron would be an interesting pickup. Not sure our boy Nate is NFL potential. Had the "deer in the headlights" look when called upon yesterday and promptly ended the Bills season with an INT. That being the case, is Tyrod kept as a backup?
  7. That's sounds about right. Could the Bills do it? Maybe, but that's a pretty big price tag. What's sad is that the Bills, or anyone else, could have nabbed him just a few years ago for a fourth round pick. He was drafted by the Skins the same year as RG3 and Cousins was viewed as a career backup.
  8. From the article: There’s also a signed Doug Flutie jersey—and the fan wearing it selected it for the precise reason that Flutie was the quarterback for that last playoff game. “I’m literally partying like it’s 1999,” says John Griveas.
  9. I remember some of the bars in Rochester were showing the replay via VHS to big crowds. Great time to be a Bills fan in WNY...it's on the way back!
  10. njsue was just starting her homework... Heitz still had his cooler...
  11. I fly my Bills flag every game day here in Northern Virginia. Every once in awhile, I meet a person from the neighborhood who says, "Oh, you're the one with the Bills flag."
  12. Great player, granted, but Billy Shaw did not play in the NFL and he, as you know, is in the HOF. Ron Mix played primarily in the AFL and Lance Alworth would have made the HOF even if he didn't play for the Cowboys.
  13. We could still lose against NE, beat Miami and be in at 9-7, IF Tenny loses to Jax. I believe we beat Tenny on the 9-7 tiebreaker. Can't have SD win anymore though...something like that.
  14. After the Bills beat the Rams in OT in December, 1980, the Talking Proud song played on a continuous loop and Freddy Smerlas led some of the team back on the field where they danced with the cheerleaders. That's what I think of when I hear the Talking Proud jingle.
  15. Jets @ Saints is a more intriguing match-up than Bills-Fish??? And Beth Mowins?
  16. Whenever I hear that craptastic song by Mariah Carey, I want to stick knitting needles in my ears...
  17. He belongs on the Wall, along with Kyle Williams from the Drought Era.
  18. Those forecasters never know what they're talking about...it will be sunny and 35 degrees.
  19. Yankees better cut Jeter a playoff share...
  20. There use to be a guy on this board named Silver "N Red who was a huge Halos fan. Don't recall seeing him here in years, however.
  21. I go through about 40 pounds of seed every 5 weeks...it slows down this time of year though. Love watching the woodpecker on the feeder. A truly majestic creature...he's worth the price of the seed.
  22. Giving players, coaches, front office personnel a ring is, of course, the right thing to do. Giving former players, longtime/screwed fans and others a ring cheapens it. I was already sick of the Cubs and their fans halfway through the 2016 WS...didn't have a dog in the hunt but started rooting for the Tribe when the Series moved to Chicago.
  23. Time for my winter beers: New Belgium Accumulation and Sierra Nevada Celebration. Also liking that winter beer Southern Tier puts out and the Great Lakes Christmas Ale (but it's a bit pricey at $12/six pack).
