BillsPride12 Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 My name is as Vanilla as they come...I've been using it since I was much younger at the old BBMB. It was during the earlier years of the drought era but at that time the Super Bowl years didn't seem THAT long ago and I still would often watch the old highlight videos and read books about the Bills glory years etc so even though we sucked I was a prideful Bills fan....figured I would throw in the number 12 for good measure and I'm sure I don't have to give an explanation on what the number 12 represents. I have thought about updating my name on here once in awhile but I also can't seem to bring myself to go through with it. Think I might be stuck with it for life now! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was living in Guilderland at the time but Albany sounded better & was more recognizable. Thanks, now we can steal your identity😄 my daughter in law is from albany. Her parents both retired professors from SUNY Albany. So Now it's a family connection to albany. and Ulster County an hour away. :-)))) I hope to visit your area with WNY as often as I possibly can 🙂 Edited December 25, 2021 by muppy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a documentary out a few years ago you may want to check out about creating their album— “Fading West”— lots of So Cal scenes and concerts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCockSportif Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 It started as Groin then (d)evolved into this one. As a tech nerd, I got involved in this programming language called "Ruby": mailing lists, code patches, going to conferences, etc. This one person appeared on the mailing list using the name of 'bigmacturdsplash', and at first I thought they were going to ruin the mailing list. And yet, they were super nice and helpful. In that light, and not to say that I'm helpful, but... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guffalo Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 My parents named me Kevin, but my brother who was 16 months older couldn't pronounce it and did the phonetic equivalent and said "Guffin" ("K" and "G" are formed the same in the mouth as well as a "V" and an "F") So instead of correcting him the family went with variations of Guffin, Guff, and since I am from the Buffalo area, for the board I just concatenated Guff and Buffalo. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like just about everything that is not "peaty". My new favorite is the Glenlivet 14 Cognac cask. I can get in South Florida for $45 https://www.theglenlivet.com/en-US/the-collection/14-year-old That’s a nice one; Balvenie price point is tough to justify most times. Have become a fan of Glenfiddich 15 year solera. Just picked up a Kirkland 24 year expression. Might get into it if the Bills get to the AFC Championship again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Pete, pretty self explanatory. Pre 2001 (around) TBD reload, where you had to reregister your name, I was Peter. But upon reload a Bills fan Peter from Florida beat me to the name, hence why I became Pete. Where did Peter go?

EmotionallyUnstable Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 (edited) I had seasons for years. Through high school with my family and then in college with buddies and my then gf, now wife. This was drought era circa 2005-2016 I came to the board around then as “AlwaysBillieve.” They hired McD, I dropped my seasons, the bills broke the drought and now I’m emotionally unstable.

Dukestreetking Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 My call sign in Iz and Afg (elsewhere it was AnvilMike6...too hard to explain). Anyway, comes from "Backstreets"... Where desperate lovers park they sat with the last of the Dukestreet Kings. I hadn't been able to follow a full season since 2001 as I was always somewhere else, so to speak. As soon as I knew that part of life was over, I joined the board in Oct 2019 but kept the call sign to remind me of the fallen. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talley56 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I am not a big Darry Talley fan. I just wanted to choose a name of someone who maybe isn't one of the first players who comes to mind when you think of Bills greats. It's just one of may ways of being different from everyone else. Heck, I even have a Donte Whitner jersey. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PastaJoe Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 About 30 years ago I was running a mens softball team at work, and the guys called me papa Joe because I took care of everything.
