Norwood for Wall of Fame Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 My son wants to buy me a Bills jersey for my birthday (which I will debut in public at the Jets Thursday night game). It'll be my first visit to the Ralph since the first game there, preseason 1973. My question is whose jersey to get? What I really want is 11 NORWOOD. Will I be the laughingstock of the Ralph if I wear it? Or start a riot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cthodge Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 My sister sent me a signed Scott Norwood helmet after meeting him this past fall at the appearance he did. It is proudly displayed in my office. As much as that miss sucks, Scott Norwood is awesome. I say go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Didn't Norwood kick the winning FG at home vs jets to clinch division in 89? So - yes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Player Available Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 My son wants to buy me a Bills jersey for my birthday (which I will debut in public at the Jets Thursday night game). It'll be my first visit to the Ralph since the first game there, preseason 1973. My question is whose jersey to get? What I really want is 11 NORWOOD. Will I be the laughingstock of the Ralph if I wear it? Or start a riot? Not at all. he didn't lose that game, and it haunts him still. Go for it. You may be a laughingstock of you wore the most recent owner of #94 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Nails Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Only if you get the lettering of his name on the right sleeve of the jersey. Save the hassle of a throwback and get a Gay #4 jersey. Then sit back and watch the hilarity ensue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Nice touch. Go for it, indeed. Norwood made a ton of kicks to win games that helped put our glory years team on the map. I met him down in VA about 15 years ago and he literally flinched when I told him I was from Buffalo, such was the weight of the bullschit he has had to put up with since SBXXV. I told him to consider Buffalo one, giant Niagara Square when they returned home after that superbowl. I suspect he is still touched by that affection. GO BILLS!!!

atlbillsfan1975 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 go for it. i bet the losers who were trolling Lawson yesterday for his injury are to young to know who Norwood is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanM.D. Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Get it. He was a good kicker and, by all accounts, a great guy. None of 'us' is any sicker about that kick than he is. Think about that for a second.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Go for it. Norwood is a good but humble guy I see every year at annual tailgate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan in San Diego Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 My Dad's name is Norwood, my Irish family heritage name is Norwood, so I vote Yes, it's a solid choice, in fact I might get one myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) go for it. My son wants to buy me a Bills jersey for my birthday (which I will debut in public at the Jets Thursday night game). It'll be my first visit to the Ralph since the first game there, preseason 1973. My question is whose jersey to get? What I really want is 11 NORWOOD. Will I be the laughingstock of the Ralph if I wear it? Or start a riot? you will not be, and if anyone laughs at you come over to hammers lot and find us. find the tall guy in the stetson. that'll be me. i stick out, for some reason. maybe it's the chaps? welcome to the board.

Freddie's Dead Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Wear #11 with pride. You would only be a laughingstock if you went with Manucci, Dufek, Johnson, or Graham. Norwood was one of the best Bills ever, and we don't get to the playoffs without his game winning kicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrivefourfive Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 This brings up an idea.... Bills should have a Scott Norwood jersey shirt game vs the Jets. Everyone in the stadium would be wearing the #11 Norwood jersey. Talk about huge national recognition for a first class town. Lift Scotty up, as many times as humanly possible.
