IMHO, there is a window right now where apparently plans for a new stadium are not in the works, being discussed. if that is the case, hopefully the NFL comes to its senses and heeds mark cuban's words about eating themselves up and common sense prevails over the greed going on right now within rhe NFL. i am for anyone making as much as they can.. but the owners want it all. shaking down cities to build them a stadium has to stop. hopefully a mindset will prevail that centers around the game, the traditions.. hence the ralph is tradition.

all things considered, due respect to OJ, KELLY, and THURMAN. (obvious first, or early picks) it is a tie between billy shaw and tom sestak, based on where picked and production..JMHO

i came to know tom sestak much later when he worked for erie county.. he was one great man.. soft spoken.. died much too young. and i am pretty sure you meant Coles.

totally agree.. hands down.. and being very young when the Bills came into existence in 1960, seals the deal as far as answering the OP question. going to real live games at the rockpile.. cookie, kemp.. actual championships. case closed! .. (IMHO)

Why so miserable?

plus he is a native.. why wouldnt he?.. nice gesture on his part

well, outside of that, can he help the bills D?

reading that article just makes me glad we arent there, and hope we never get there! status quo is fine.. it works..

talking about a downtown domed stadium is akin to all the BASS PRO pie in the sky nonsense.. good thing that never came to fruition.. and yes, canalside is great and well within what the reality of the area offers.

or think realistically

well said..

ride on! you got it! miss em.. but that is progress i suppose.. all in the name of just trying to keep up with the (jerry) jones's!

yep, and as mark cuban said, the NFL will eat themselves up if they continue the practice of squeezing every frickin nickel out of people..

exactly.. i want a place to tailgate, then watch the game. all the "amenities" really are just fluff. we are buffalo, not L A or dallas.. lambeau works, so does the ralph.

you are actually quite perceptive!

hit piece by a well known race-baiter.. should be ignored.. let him re-open up the JFK assassination investigation.

there you go! guess the "freedom of speech" argument can be put to rest!. the NFL is becoming so PC, So worried about the Left that it is turning a great deal of fans off. political statements should be off limits, people watch the NFL to escape from it!

if i am missing another thread on this, or you boot to this to the political board so be it, just want to offer and opinion on beyonce's "salute" to the black panthers and her anti cop BS. disgraceful and another reason to really question what the heck is wrong with the NFL? letting a blatant political message be sent during a halftime performance?

as someone who has "three warning points" which to this day befuddles me, isnt it time to remove this and move it to the political board? as a recovering"alleged political poster"on the regular message board when it strayed into politics before i realized you "dont do that".. i am recommending it.

trying to connect the dots based on the little that has been said , or unsaid, it seems the powers that be MIGHT be thinking in those terms. a sterile dome is unthinkable IMHO, just not "buffalo".. we arent ever going to host a super bowl and that seems to be a reason for the "dome" talk.

hope you are right! could not agree more. and it does actually make the most sense both fiscally and logistically.

that loss has bothered me to this day, more crushing than "wide right" for the mere fact that the team jelled from that opening victory over miami and the kelly bills , greatest of all time certainly, was expected to win, we had confidence, those 80 bills finally made us "talkin proud" after a decade of futility.
