‘The 2000 Bills are facing a leadership turnover much as the 1990 Bills did. In 1989, our most vocal team leaders were offensive tackle Joe Devlin and nose tackle Fred Smerlas — very well respected veterans, but not the team’s best players at that point in their careers.’

‘HOH has learned that Bruce Smith, the legendary defensive tackle, will be the star attraction Friday night at a Virginia fundraiser for Clinton’s New York Senate campaign.’

‘The 5th castaway has been voted off Buffalo Bills Island. The voting was clear this round, as yet another future Hall of Famer was asked to leave the island. That means one current Hall of Fame player and three future inductees have been shipped back to the mainland.’

‘Wade Phillips is not expecting Marcellus Wiley to replace Bruce Smith at right defensive end. He is, however, looking for a good season out of the fourth-year player, especially rushing from the right side where he says Wiley is more effective. Here’s a Q&A with Wiley.’

The 4th castaway has been voted off Buffalo Bills Island. Once again, the voting came down to the wire. Only one vote separated these two future Hall of Famers! Just like rounds one and two – betrayal was the deciding factor in Round 4.

‘In the early line issued by the legal sports books in Las Vegas, the Bills are given 8-1 odds of making Super Bowl XXXV in January at Tampa. Buffalo ranks No. 5 on the odds list in the AFC behind Jacksonville (7-2), Tennessee (5-1), Denver (6-1) and Indianapolis (7-1).’

‘The 3rd castaway has been voted off Buffalo Bills Island. This was a very interesting round as an old-timer battled with the youngest castaway. The vote went down to the wire. In fact, only one vote separated the two castaways.’

‘You Make the Call is a presentation of both real and imagined NFL scenarios, where we invite you to "make the call" based upon the Official Rules for the NFL for 1999. Good luck, because you’ll need it.

‘June 18 to June 24 (in alphabetical order by subject). This is a weekly collection of the fans’ most interesting posts on The Stadium Wall message board. Posts will be highlighted each week on the Shout!/TBD web site. Posts from the previous week follow the new posts.’

‘Mike linebacker John Holecek has been busy strengthening the muscle around his knees this off-season. Holecek said he hopes the extra training will eliminate any chance of a leg injury forcing him to miss games during the regular season.’

The 2nd castaway has been voted off Buffalo Bills Island. This pick was another surprise to the TBD staff. He undoubtedly was one of the greatest Bills ever to play in Buffalo and will be remembered as one of the greatest players to ever play the game.

‘Around July 10, the transformation of the sedate, private college into Billsville begins in earnest. Festival tents for vendors and corporate sponsors will take shape in the parking lots adjacent to the Fisher football stadium. Fencing to direct crowds, which could number 12,000 fans a day, will be erected. Portable restrooms, baby changing stations, shade areas and medical emergency posts are among other details germane to creating the fan-friendly camp. In addition, 70 training camp jobs earmarked for Fisher student-athletes must be assigned and the people trained. On July 17, the college plans a dress rehearsal.’
