Name a random Bills player and one thing you remember about them

A few thoughts in no particular order (copyright)

@Virgil @Bill from NYC

 

1. My father worked at a bank in late 70's or so and got me a black & white autographed picture of our backup QB Dan Manucci (some old timers remember him) 

 

 

2. We sponsored the Thurman Thomas Show at our restaurant, Daryl Talley was a guest as well. An old timer who didn't come back right from Vietnam was busting his balls after his DWI telling him don't drink too much boy. Darryl said to me personally if that MF'er calls me boy one more time I'm gonna F*** him up!

 

3. I was working in sales at a Mercedes dealership. Sam Gash came in, met him with the GM. I was about 6'-3", 195 & about 38. I'm in a suit and said to him, ya know what? I don't think you can block me, I think I can beat you. I get down in a 3 pt. stance... We all just burst out laughing! 😂

Good times

Anyone remember Tommy Sweeney?  Flying home from the Bills vs Miami game on Halloween (2021?) I was seated next to his mother.  Actually one of his better games.  His mom was pumped.  Lots of BC stories and parent stories about him and his sister who I think was a swimmer or something like that.  When his father stood up and helped my wife get her over head bag down I could see where they were related.  Good people.  Kinda rooted for Sweeney while he was in Buffalo just because his parents were nice.

Sweeney is a Bills legend.  The heat game in Miami, the Bills last loss to Miami, Bills players were injured and overheating, and we ran out of OL.  Tommy Sweeney, with torn ligaments in his knee, went and played Tackle, because we had zero other OL healthy.  Bills players always raved about Tommy

Brad Butler retired way too soon.

 

 Brian Brohm never got a fair chance.

 

Kelvin Benjamin was a Popeyes biscuit away from being a TE. And then he converted to TE.

 

Kevin Kolb hates rubber mats.

 

Gibran Hamden was prettier than Matt Milano.

Brian Brohm? Really? Are you serious? The man had zero for an arm.....

Was it safety Bryan Scott who played jazz piano?

Charles Clay signed a lucrative contract.

 

Robert Foster was Josh Allen's best weapon his rookie year.
