Two Bills Drive

Former Ohio State Buckeye Corey Stringer collapsed at practice yesterday and was unresponsive upon arrival at the hospital. He had an extremely high core temperature of over 108 degrees. Stringer developed multi-organ system failure throughout the day and night. He never regained consciousness and despite all efforts his heart failed at 1:50 a.m.

‘Wegman’s said they never expected that kind of demand on Tuesday morning.’

‘Managers at the Wegmans corporate office decided to give the tickets away earlier than scheduled…But apparently not all Wegmans locations got the message. All the stores are tied into the same pool of about five thousand tickets, which disappeared in twenty minutes, before some locations even had a chance to give them away.’

‘Cornerback Antoine Winfield, sidelined for Tuesday’s practice by a hamstring pull, said he thinks the injuries are a result of the increased running the team is doing under Williams.’

‘A current Bills player who likes both quarterbacks backed Flutie’s version, saying the main source of friction between the two was mostly because of Johnson’s insecurity as Flutie’s status in Buffalo grew.’

‘In 1996, fresh out of Maplewood High School in Nashville, Tenn., Black red-shirted his freshman season at Tennessee State. He didn’t play, he just practiced. That’s essentially just how his rookie season in the NFL went.’

‘Buffalo Bills equipment manager Dave Hojnowski has been on the job 24 years. After that long, you’d think training camp would become ho-hum for "Hojo." To the contrary, he’s having a blast.’

‘"I’m hoping I can use my celebrity to raise awareness about the issue of domestic violence," Cowart said.’

‘"A few stores sat back, still waiting for 10:30. And when they turned the system on at 10:30, there were no tickets left."’

‘"I scrambled around too much," Johnson said. "When you’re learning an offense, you should really stay in the pocket and get through the reads."’

‘Antoine Winfield, Travares Tillman, Jay Riemersma, Brandon Spoon, Jeremy McDaniel, Ken Irvin, Leif Larsen, Lance Brown, Sammy Morris, Josh Roth and Corey Moore all sat out Tuesday morning’s practice with various injuries. None are serious.’

"I feel I’m getting better and better at it," Johnson said. "Last night I scrambled around too much, guys weren’t open and when you’re learning a new offense you should really throw in the pocket and try to go through all your progressions. … come game time, when the scrambles are there and you’ve got to make plays, then you take them, but it practice you really have got to get through the reads."

‘The Buffalo Bills started their first day of hard-hitting, aggressive practice on Sunday. The vets are back in camp and the fans are out in full force (5,130 the first day, 6,738 the second day) to get a glimpse of the new team everyone is buzzing about.’

‘Tuesday morning, 11 players watched practice from the sidelines at St. John Fisher College outside of Rochester. They included cornerback Antoine Winfield, tight end Jay Riemersma and tailback Sammy Morris, all starters who are nursing hamstring pulls — the most common injury in camp.’
