Congratulations Dallas...you lost to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.

"I was coming home on the subway...packed in like sardines we was. It was dark, no lights...hot, no fan...and I was pressed up against this 300 pound EYE-talian, half of which smelled like pure garlic."

My Bledsoe jersey does the same thing...it's well big enough, but when I put it on, it's very constricting and it effects both my forward and lateral movement. I can walk backwards when I wear it, but whenever I try to avoid oncoming pedestrians, I cannot move forward or side-to-side.
Strange.

The NFL has played loosely with the "75 mile rule" in recent years. Viewing areas are now measured more or less by general proximity and not 75 miles from a certain stadium.
For example, a couple of years ago, the Bills wanted Syracuse included in their "home viewing area" and conveniently found a slice of land within 75 miles of RWS and "within" the Syracuse viewing area. Thus, Syracuse is now a Bills viewing area.
Of course, this doesn't mean the Bills, or any other team, may not trot out the "75 mile" decree when it sees fit. In the end, you will get the game(s) your "local" team wants you to see, sellout or not.

CHARLIE GIBSON: "Well, well said, Curt and Shonda. You both have certainly lifelong membership now in the Red Sox nation. It was a great thing to watch, and I think everybody – whether they were great Red Sox fans or not — had to admire what this team did. It was extraordinary, and one of the great stories of sport. And sport always produces such great stories. Curt, Shonda, great to have you with us. Congratulations."
SCHILLING: "And make sure you tell everybody to vote, and vote Bush next week."

21-of-25 for a buck-93. Steelers rally and get a big win in Big D, 24-20, and go to 5-1.
Patsies and Dog-Ass Jets are still unbeaten going into their showdown, but they best not be looking over their shoulders. The Stinky Littles are coming on and Big Ben showed again why he's a keeper.
I'm still trying to decipher this...

Criqui had one good line: "The wind was so fierce coming from the west this morning, that when I went out to get the Buffalo News, the Sacramento Bee was on the doorstep."
Criqui, I believe, has done more NFL games than anyone, after Pat Summerall. His closest competition could be Dick Stockton. He was NBC's number two guy for ages and I think with a seasoned partner, and Tasker is becoming one, he's as good as anyone.
He's getting a little long in the tooth, but he makes up for it with zingers like the one above.

See you at Sliders....

In other words, not too shabby....

Bills had this guy in the mid 70's named Halvor Hagen. He was a reserve lineman, who, I think, played both ways. (Don't go there!
) Great name. Sounds like a Norwegian pro wrestler.Also liked this Saints WR from the same era: Jubilee Dunbar.

Hmmm....I think it's an omission...I know they early 70s jerseys had the red/blue piping on the jersey stripes.
Yeah, it is a neat site. From what I gather, this was a labor of love for the webmaster, who had to give it up because of time restraints. Go to the "UNIforum" link at the top of the page...some interesting conversations on NFL uniforms and history.
-
You're freakin' right they were the best...check the link and then double-click on the Bills to see a real NFL uniform.
The only thing though, is that you don't see the red trim on the blue jersey stripes, nor the blue trim on the white jerseys...these detailed stripes gave the Bills jersey a very clean look.

Nice looking jersey, must be a new throwback line from Reebok. Gotta pick up one to go with my JK road classic.
Memories...that's all we got these days....

Thanks to this year's Cincinnati Bengals, who now look like the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, the Bills no longer sport the worst threads in the league.
Thanks, Tom Donhoe, for another "winner."

Yankees-Red Sox....Yawn...ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz..........
What makes a rivalry is that some of the time, one team has to beat the other.
1978?
1999?
2003?
I think this is one of the most overblown "rivalries" in sports...it is so one-sided, that the "rivalry" has taken epidemic proportions, especially for those residing in New England. I'm so sick of hearing about the "long suffering" Sawx fans. Lose four god-damned Super Bowls in a row and then, and only then, tell me how to "suffer."
If this series makes being 0-4 in the AFC East a little easier, enjoy. That great sucking sound you hear will be the snores of millions of Americans who will be fast asleep by the time the seventh inning rolls around...at 11:00 PM Eastern.

1. Bills
Not even close: Orioles
On the radar screen: Notre Dame/Navy/SU football (decent, I guess)
Done till when? Sabres
When does practice start? SU basketball
Well, at least we have baseball coming to DC next spring...

I suppose you mean the baseball version? It's still a pretty good game, just call the 800 number and tell them you want the game with the 2003 rosters. The 2004 teams come out in January-Feb I believe. I think the standard game is around $40...have never played the computer version.
Did you ever play Sports Illustrated Baseball? The 1971-72 versions were the only good ones...bought a 1971 version on ebay for $125 last year. Well worth it and for being over 30 years old, still the best baseball simulation game ever, IMO.
Good luck with your son...may be hard to turn him on to these types of games. Kids today want the computer animated graphics of outfielders crashing through walls, catchers going 30 rows into the stands for a foul, and 700-foot homers...

Keep tabs on this guy, for in the coming years, he will be mentioned as a possible local owner when Ralph goes to his great reward.
Hell, he could buy the Bills with what he has in his wallet...and considering the options, i.e. Los Angeles Bills, he wouldn't be a bad choice.

Last month it was Dave Moore (is he still in the league?)
Bad vibes...really bad vibes.
Man it was nice to see that punt out of bounds!

It seems like the coffin-corner kick is a lost art in today's NFL...Moorman's punt was a real gem.
But where was the coffin-corner kick on opening day vs. Jax when the Bills most needed it? Remember Jax started their winning drive from their 20 after a short middle-of-the-field punt. Why Moorman dropped that turd in the middle of the field sticks in my craw to this day, as if you can't tell.
