60’s Bills Fan Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Just a heads up-I’m a brand new member as of today and the thing I’ve wanted to say most is: To all those who respond to Shaw66 by calling him “Shaw”-just want to make sure you all know this man is an NFL Hall of Famer (offensive guard), played whole career (9 years) with The Bills-1961-1970, 8 of which he made the Pro Bowl! I watched him play at the Rock Pile back in the day. Just think he deserves the respect of either MR. Shaw or Billy-just sayin-also, check out his Bio!

Off topic, but I did a lot of work back in the early 90s with a fellow named Roger Crozier. Never been a hockey fan, but I understood he was something with the Sabres way back in the day. He was in charge of construction for a big credit card company and named one of his buildings the Sabre Wing. Another building he named the Red Wing, which then segued into an entirely different direction with the White and Blue Wings. He was a great guy to work with....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi 60s, I'll put this out there for all: 1) I have no idea if the Shaw66 poster is or is not the actual Billy Shaw who played for the Bills. 2) sometimes folks who are players or retired players or otherwise in the NFL don't want to be "outed" Sometimes you make an educated guess and message them privately "are you?" and they'll tell ya, BUT, it's not cool to "out" them without their OK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punt75 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Didn't the Shaw66 poster grow up in the Buffalo area and went to Amherst High School? He's about 71 and not the real Billy Shaw ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerJ Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 As long as we're being honest here, I am the real TigerJ. I am among those who never had the impression that our Shaw66 was the original. I enjoy and respect him as a poster for his knowledge and respect for the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
