Two Bills Drive

“It’s very different,” said Johnson, the former Bills Quarterback. “We kind of ran the remedial version of the West Coast up in Buffalo. Down here, it’s a lot more advanced. Coach Gruden coaches it very well. He’s very detailed, and knows where he wants everyone and what to do. He’s a very good coach that way and it’s nice to be in this type of system.”

The Greater Olean Area Chamber of Commerce came around to my business and asked for donations for a big parade in Olean with Jim and Hunter acting as the Grande Marshalls.

Recap of the Bills in the NFLEL.

The NFL Europe League will conclude its 10th season on Saturday when the Berlin Thunder face the Rhein Fire in World Bowl X at the Rheinstadion in Düsseldorf, Germany.

In January of 2001, owner Ralph Wilson was looking rebuild his Buffalo Bills. He started at the top by hiring football expert Tom Donahoe to run the team. Donahoe had built the Pittsburgh Steelers into a powerful, playoff-bound team in the 1990s, and Wilson hoped he could do the same for the Bills.

The four adult teams that won their respective divisions were Mallare (Red division), Buffalo Scale #1 (Blue division), Tony's Steakout (White division), and Stumpfs 2 (Green division).

RUBEN BROWN, the Bills six-time Pro Bowl offensive guard, will be hosting his Second Annual Motorcycle Run to benefit The Salvation Army on Sunday, June 23, 2002 at Ralph Wilson Stadium.

Drew Bledsoe replaces Alex Van Pelt. Mike Williams and Trey Teague (who I’m not crazy about because he failed with the Broncos last year) upgrade the Bills at tackle. Tom Donahoe has fixed a horrible cap situation. Heck of an offseason, and it will show on the field in September.

Since they signed Mathis, don’t be surprised if the Steelers trade disappointing former first-round pick Troy Edwards to the Bills, if they can. Otherwise, they may just let him go and hope he doesn’t sign with the Bills. Tom Donahue, the Bills’ GM, was the driving force behind the Steelers taking Edwards in the first round.

The Rochester Red Wings, the Triple AAA affiliate for the Baltimore Orioles major league baseball team, has announced that five members of the Bills draft class of 2002 will be at Frontier Field on Tuesday, June 18 to take batting practice prior to the game and sign autographs during the 7:05 p.m. game against the Columbus Clippers.

Bills allocated RB Curtis Alexander finishes season with 1,040 total yards from scrimmage.

One of my fellow Backers organizers here attended the uniform unveiling ceremony and took some photos. I’ve posted them on our website. Enjoy.

‘For the True Believers, "wide right" and "no goal" are not yesterday’s sports news. They remain viable, current topics. Few days in the lives of True Believers have been darker than those days. And the "greatest comeback"? It continues to send spasms of pleasure along their spines. Plenty of people have videos of the game and regularly watch it.’

‘The club has discussed a deal for Buffalo’s Shawn Bryson, a talented young reserve who is expendable in a backfield that includes 2001 second-round pick Travis Henry, free agent Richard Huntley and 2000 fifth-round pick Sammy Morris. The asking price for Bryson is believed to be a third-round draft pick.’

‘A younger Bledsoe had to play against Kelly, Thomas, Smith, Andre Reed, and other mainstays on Buffalo’s four Super Bowl teams. They were like idols to him in a way. “I know a lot of those guys,” Bledsoe said. “Jim Kelly is still a huge presence in Buffalo, and I’ve seen him quite a bit. We played golf a couple of times. I just hope we can get back to that level of dominance and we can take it one step farther than that last step that they were fortunate enough to make.”‘
