Two Bills Drive

‘“Everything will fall into place for me,” he said. “I’m not trying to rush anything. As long as the team accepts me for how I am, that’s all I have to worry about.”’

The San Diego Bills Backers fan club has been around since the early 1980's. They were incorporated under the Bills Backers umbrella in 1988 and are one of the oldest continuously operating fan clubs in the NFL.

‘Where is the weirdest place you have ever been asked for an autograph?

"Do I have to comment on that? No comment."’

‘Of course, the best Bills marketing tool will be winning games this fall.’

Buffalo Bills running back KEN SIMONTON (Scottish Claymores) won the voting for Offensive MVP after leading the league with 871 rushing yards and finishing fourth with 39 receptions.

‘"I believe the Bill’s Shout Song was and is one of the greatest things for the team and us fans. No matter where you hear shout you get excited about the Bills. It is one way that fans can connect to the team and get enthusiastic about the team. I for one love the song and what it does for the fans….I wish they would play it more at the games though."’

‘"The song is old and totally outdated. Lets get something more modern and not so ritualistic. Fans singing shout sound like they have been wound up and programmed. Something not as structured would be better."’

‘During their tour of duty overseas, they stopped twice to pose for pictures, once in the desert of Kuwait and again in the heart of Baghdad in front of a military academy. In both pictures a Buffalo Bills banner was proudly displayed. The 15 men adorned their tank with Bills insignias, decals and even a "Bledsoe 11" on the canon. Their passion for their team was proudly displayed for all of Iraq to see, they were fans of the Buffalo Bills and they didn’t care who knew it.’

‘Due in large part to a considerable increase in season ticket sales, availability will be very limited for the team’s home games vs. New England (9/7), Philadelphia (9/28) and Washington (10/19). The only way to guarantee tickets for all home games is by purchasing season tickets.’

‘After visiting various pro, college and youth-level fields in 10 – 15 cities, Munson and Frandina settled on AstroPlay for a variety of reasons. One of the biggest was the field’s "G-max" rating, which measures the hardness of a ground surface based on vertical-drop tests. A measurement of zero is extremely soft; a measurement of 200 is extremely hard. Natural grass is an 85, and AstroPlay is close, "around an 85 to a 95," Munson says.’

Ryan Denney will have something to celebrate this Father's Day. The Buffalo Bills defensive end is a new father, welcoming his daughter to the world just two months ago. Though he is in the midst of training during mini-camp, he has also has his hands full at home, caring for an infant. But Denney doesn't let his fatherly duties interfere with his job. He's been hitting the weights and practicing hard in anticipation of the 2003 season.

‘"I have one request, actually an order, for you ladies – to beat the Patriots on opening day."’

Kevin (Buffalo): Mort, my beloved Bills have made many great moves this offseason with the only downside being we had to trade Peerless Price. Do you think that Josh Reed will be able to fill his shoes or not? Thanks

Chris Mortensen: (7:12 PM ET ) Price and Reed are different receivers. Price is a speed, deep guy and Reed is a possession, run after the catch guy. Don’t forget, Eric Moulds is still the best receiver on the Bills and he’s not going anywhere. Bledsoe will be better in the system. The O-line will be better. Travis Henry will be hungry. It may be a little different, but the Bills should be better this season.

‘Sape didn’t expect to be drafted. He’s enthusiasm has shown in Mini Camp with many off sides which drives new defensive line coach Tim Krumrie crazy. You can tell just from his brief time of the field, Sape’s motor is always running.’
