nothing better than getting one of those skillet fried hot dogs and then going to the big mustard jars, the guys older than my generation would bring lotsa of beer in. it has been said that one group had a season ticket seat for a quarter keg . obviously never fly now, but certainly says alot for how times change.
i truly love reading about everyone's memories of the rockpile. so many, too numerous to mention, but wonder if anyone remembers that small band that used to play before the games? it was tucked in the corner where right field would be. it consisted of about 10 people, just was great background music.
this board can be tedious , i know there are fact-checker police, but now spelling??? on a friggin football talk site! please.. stop.. stick to content!
he was charged as the result of a DUI checkpoint. no one condones drunken driving, but it remains to be seen if DUI checkpoints pass the constitutionality test.
the best thing , i would think, is to almost ignore the thing. wouldnt that somehow show acceptance? bringing attention to it seems to undermine the whole objective.
it was in blasdell, at the regency motel. i used to ride my bike from south buffalo, saw O J, all of them close-up.. really cool, but certainly something from days gone by.
i never heard of him, but after watching the video, he looked good, nice release, a little brady-esque, maybe? if they dont reach on nassib, or glennon, etc, i would love him in the 4th.
as for a punter, hard to come up with one. the first one was billy atkins, who was pretty good, he was followed by wayne crow, so so.. then maguire, only other possible weak punter could be marv bateman..
well, it was me who mentioned gant, "loco".. thanks.. i think this a board to express opinions and i was expressing mine about gant..
donald wilson was a DB and punt returner around 83-84
would loved to have seen cookie against the browns, i believe were the nfl champsin 64 , or the pack.., but he was gone when the pack were champs obviously. .. it is all just a pipedream, but something that you always wondered about back then.
great minds think alike! as the saying goes.. but really, of all the teams, i have a soft spot for THAT TEAM, it seemed like we sucked forever(but compared to now, it was only about 3 years post OJ).. started the year beating miami.. just was very enjoyable..
i am partial to the 80-81 team.. still believe they could have won it all.. bad luck, fergy injury.. loved that team.. and i have been around for them all.
