Two Bills Drive

The Rhein Fire will play in World Bowl X after beating the Galaxy 3-0 in front of an NFLEL-record crowd of 58,572 in Frankfurt’s Waldstadion. Curtis Alexander had 15 carries for 69 yards plus 3 catches for 17 yards in a defensive battle between top rated Rhein Fire and Frankfurt Galaxy. Backup QB Hendricks was able to make only 9 completions in 30 attempts, many of them overthrown, underthrown (including one of the receptions to Alexander who dived for the catch) or otherwise off target. World Bowl X will be an all German matchup..

‘"I enjoyed the whole time I was in Buffalo," he said. "The owner made a decision. He’s allowed to do that. The disappointment for me was I still wanted to be there. I had a successful career going, and it got derailed. I did a good job and won a lot of games. I’d still rather be the head coach of the Buffalo Bills."’

‘The Texas A&M product weighed between 285 and 290 pounds and saw limited action in seven games as a rookie. He’s up to 305 pounds at the team’s minicamp this week.’

The Bills unveiled their new uniforms during a rally Saturday at Ralph Wilson Stadium. While the traditional red helmet and charging buffalo logo remain unchanged, the team will be sporting new navy blue uniforms trimmed in red, silver and royal blue for the 2002 season. Picture is shown of Jim Kelly holding the jersey with his son Hunter’s name on it.

‘So the idea is to pound the football. Travis Henry is a pounder, although not in the mold of Bettis, so Huntley may be the second prong of a two-pronged pound attack, just as he was for a while in Pittsburgh.’

‘"It gives us a more aggressive, dynamic look on the field, but it doesn’t drastically alter the look," Donahoe said. "Everyone in this building recognizes the great tradition of the Buffalo Bills. We didn’t want to change the logo. We even dipped back into the history of the franchise and added some gray."’

“Belichick does a great job with the fundamental teachings that has to go on throughout the whole team — special teams, defense and offense,” says Buffalo’s Williams. “It’s the way he gets them all playing under one roof, the way he gets them to all play together.”

‘An hour after the unveiling, a long line snaked outside the team store at the stadium.’

‘Dark navy blue, vivid red, a touch of royal blue, some eye-catching silver, a white road jersey with navy on the shoulders, red helmet with new stripe and same charging buffalo logo. Old yet new. In the words of Dolce & Gabbana, "Me likey."’

‘The year before switching uniforms, the Sabres ranked 24th in merchandise sales in the NHL. Their first season in their new attire in new HSBC Arena, they rocketed to seventh and have remained in the top 10 ever since.’

‘"This is exciting," Bledsoe said, modeling the Bills home uniform bearing his number 11. "New uniforms for the past seven or eight years have been good luck for some teams. The Broncos changed and they won it all."’

NOTE: interview is sound only.

Tom Donahoe says they wanted uniform to be evolutionary not revolutionary and some of the original designs were more ‘Stars Wars’ like. Wilson appears to have been a balance and kept some of the more radical changes out of uniforms.

The hype is over and now you see what they are hyping. The new Bills jerseys have been modernized in the Tennessee Titans and Denver Broncos type of style as previously leaked by game maker. Logo has not changed on Helmet.
