Two Bills Drive

WR Eric Moulds has stopped endorsing a bodybuilding supplement, a deal that was in violation of NFL policy, according to his agent.

Curtis Alexander only had 12 rushes for 49 yards and 4 catches for 23 yards in a Galaxy loss to the Fire. Galaxy has not been the same since it lost its starting QB. Elsewhere David Dinkins did not play in meaningless game in which Admirals triumphed over World Bowl bound Fire.

‘"It was just easier to stop (the endorsement deal)," said Moulds’ agent, Harry Henderson. "Rules are rules and this has become, essentially, a condition of employment. So, really, a player doesn’t have any choice."’

‘Moulds’ endorsement of NITRO-Tech, a natural protein supplement that’s free of any substances banned by the NFL, was not the issue. The league was concerned about the supplement’s manufacturer, MuscleTech Research and Development Inc., which also makes products that contain banned substances.’

Good to see so many returning faces though I must admit there were a few that didn’t make the squad that I wish had.

Over 100 young ladies performed an initial dance routine before a panel of judges. The group was then narrowed to 70 finalists, which all went through a brief interview before the 45 women were selected to become members of the 2002 Buffalo Jills.

‘Moulds had been a spokesperson for MuscleTech Research and Development, Inc., of Mississauga, Ontario, since his 1996 rookie season. He had specifically been promoting an all-natural protein supplement called NITRO-Tech. However, the company also makes other products containing banned substances by the NFL such as ephedra, a controversial stimulant used for weight loss and energy gain, and Androstenediol, an anabolic steroid.’

The Bills bit the bullet last year, stunk up the division and seemed like they were destined to join the ranks of their football friendlies a short drive north in Canada. But a funny thing happened on the way to the CFL — they got pretty darn good and cut loose a lot of dead weight.

Let’s see who’s laughing at the Bills this year

Len talks about the Bills possibility of looking at DE Marco Coleman. It is near the bottom of the article in the PUNTS section.

NOTE: Coleman signed with Jacksonville Friday.

Will the addition of Drew Bledsoe propel the Bills back to the playoffs? NFL fans seem to think so.

Grant went to Notre Dame, while father Gerald — a 10-year NFL linebacker for the Oakland Raiders and Cleveland Browns from 1970-79 — graduated from Maryland-East Shore.

‘Hill, 25, grew up in Marrero and played football at Brother Martin High School and LSU before playing strong safety for the Buffalo Bills in the National Football League. He now is a free agent and may try out for the New Orleans Saints, he said.’

Dave Moore says that people are underestimating his ability to catch passes. Moore actually made into the NFL because he caught 89 career passes from Alex Van Pelt when they were teammates at Pitt. The offensive output was enough to get Miami interested as a possible weapon for Dan Marino.

‘Next stop: preseason training camp starting July 24 at St. John Fisher College.’

A man who kidnapped former Buffalo Bill and LSU football star Raion Hill and stole his vehicle was sentenced to 50 years in prison.

Earlier this week many of the Bills players participated in an autograph signing of items that will be sold for charity via NFL Auction, an online charity-based initiative of the NFL. The first five items from that signing will be available for fans to bid on starting tomorrow. They include a Drew Bledsoe signed helmet, an Eric Moulds autographed mini-helmet, a Mike Williams autographed panel football, a Keith Newman autographed mini-football and a Ruben Brown autographed authentic football.
