One heartening thing about last night's game

They went back to him in game for some news tidbits, and he brought up an Ilio D'Paolo reference and said "so far, these Bills appear to be circling the wagons."

 

Not much, I know, but at least Boomer gives the appearance he still cares about the Bills. That's a plus for a network guy, most of whom jump from one bandwagon to the next.

 

Whenever Boomer talks about the Bills, I'm always reminded of ESPN's Monday Night coverage (where they sent Boomer to the game for live remotes for SportsCenter). I especially treasure the time he and Jimbo made post-game plans live on the air after a win against the Dolphins.

 

Jimbo: You comin' with us tonight?

 

Boomer: I didn't realize I was invited anywhere.

 

Jimbo: Well, you are. You comin'?

 

Boomer: I guess I am.

 

Or words to that effect. I just remember busting a gut over it.

 

If and when the Bills ever return to national prominence, I hope someone educates the players on Berman's history with this team. It was nice having someone in the national media pimp us, for better or worse. I hope Berman can again see the day where he gets to trot out, "No one ... AND I MEAN NO ONE ... circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills!"

 

Man, I miss those days.
