Obviously, JetBlue Airways needs a better spell-checker!

‘For Polian, it was a chance to reminisce about his days as the Bills’ general manager. “Those were some really special times,” said the President and General Manager of the Indianapolis Colts. “Western New York remains a very special place to everyone in my family. Seeing all the guys again is very special.’

“Broncos officials said Friday the visit wasn’t finalized yet but any decision likely would be made before the staff goes on vacation after the team’s mini-camp Tuesday through Friday.”

“The difficult fight against Krabbe disease could not have found a much more fitting poster child than Hunter Kelly. The son of former Buffalo Bills quarterback has proven to be a fighter extraordinaire. He was expected to live only 14 months. He now is 3 years and 3 months old.”

“Yes, I know. The issue became moot long ago. The pass was completed. The Titans scored the touchdown. The officials reviewed the pass and decided it was a legal lateral. The Bills lost the game. The NFL published two photographs of the play to convince everybody that the referee’s decision was correct. After a preliminary analysis, I decided that the officials were probably correct.”

“I know what happened, I know what I had to say,” Kelly told the Buffalo News. “I know that when you get out of a plane and you go underwater, it’s a little deeper than six inches. I know I’m not a goldfish, I know I’m not that small.”

“Around the NFL, Phillips is admired for the work he did in picking up the pieces of the 1997 team, which bumbled to a 6-10 record in Marv Levy’s farewell season. Phillips’ first team reversed the record to 10-6 and made the playoffs.”

“Up until reading the Page 1 article on the Bills (May 28), I was feeling great, playing tennis daily, and enjoying the 80-and-over international tennis tournament in Austria.”

“Not enough, apparently, that he quarterbacked in four Super Bowls for the Buffalo Bills. Not enough that he takes his vacations in remote sections of Alaska accessible only by airplane and hundreds of miles from the nearest limo for hire. Not enough that he hunts bears there and not just defenseless ducks.”

“Do you avoid Buffalo Bills games because you’re afraid of having beer spilled on you by strangers? Or do you cringe at the thought of wading through a sea of tipsy, rowdy tailgaters in the Ralph Wilson Stadium parking lots?”

“The pilot of the plane carrying Jim Kelly has a less harrowing account of the rough landing in the Berring Sea than the one given by the former Buffalo Bills quarterback.”

“Former Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly says he is lucky to be alive

after a plane he was in went down in the Bering Sea recently, 100 yards off the Alaska Peninsula.”

That is one big bear…

“Pat Kelly was on the beach helplessly watching as the two-seat plane carrying his famous brother – ex-Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly – struggled to land on the Alaskan coast.”
