  1. It is much easier to just say "Here is $54. Now go over there and lie down."
  2. It means they need more cowbell!
  3. As a "small market" team, the Bills have surprisingly finished in the top ten in paid attendance in the league in 2003 & 2004. Back in 2001 they were 20th. Things aren't always as bad as we paint them. attendance ranking Looking at Arizona - dead last all four years, with an average home attendance under 40,000 - I think the NFL should look elsewhere when it comes time to relocate franchises.
  4. No. They would not be the Buffalo Bills, just a team of familiar players living in another city.
  5. Hmmm. J.P. Looseman?
  6. Shook his hand in 1964 and I have been a Bills fan ever since.
  7. Only unaltered Bills Jersey I have. Great choice!
  8. Current: Coy Wire All Time: Fred Smerlas or Tom Day
  9. Ahr & Ahr & Associates They must be twins.
  10. At our local school, teacher's salaries (including a raise) are placed on the austerity budget, while transportation of elementary school children was supplemental. So 5 year olds within one mile of the school should walk to kindergarten? The district just keeps having additional votes, moving a few numbers around, until panicky parents finally pass the BS budget.
  11. His one liners were along this line: "I love my mother.... and for $25 so can you."
  12. You are such a sexist! Hi, Sweetie!
  13. I agree. Not everyone can be Bruce Smith; I'll be happy with a Hansen style player anyday.
  14. I believe that the cash is there. If I am not mistaken, the issue is that RW's heirs are not all interested in owning the Bills.
  15. No, I have only stayed at Rui Jalisco, Club Marival, (both about an hour north in Nuevo Vallarta) and this last trip at the Marina Vallarta, a 40 cent taxi ride to "Centro". We have stayed at all inclusive resorts as a "base" because of young nieces and nephews, but if it was just my family, all adults, I would find someplace downtown. If you want Mexico, stay close to the city. If you want beautiful resorts, a bit more "americanized", go to Nuevo Vallarta. Where exactly is Pueblo Rose? I may know the area. Um, you know that summer is the rainy season right?
  16. I just got back from Puerto Vallarta a couple hours ago. Where are you staying? Let's see, shots of tequila Wednesday night, horseback riding from Mismaloya beach, up the river into the Sierra Madres (El Eden) on Thursday, went out that night for buckets of beer at the Zoo until 2:30 Friday morning, and here I am 24 hours later, back on the wall. It sucked getting back into Rochester, almost midnight and SNOW everywhere, still wearing shorts and sandals! Feeling old? I am only 51, and no thanks!
  17. I have been absent because I was in Mexico all last week, Jay! Got back about two hours ago. What happened with the mods? I will keep 4/1 open.
  18. TH for LJ Trade?? We are bringing Lonnie Johnson back?!
  19. Since I have seen references to this a few times I thought I would add my two cents. Landry was the only coach the Cowboys had known. The new owner, Jerry Jones felt that the times had passed him by, so he wanted a new wunderkind, an arthropod by the name of Jerry Jones. Johnson summoned Landry to his office on a Friday, but TL decided he needed one last weekend before the ax fell. He saw the writing on the wall. He took off to spend the weekend with his family. Rather than wait, Jones and Johnson, the J Squared duo, got on Jones private jet, trailed down Landry who was golfing with his family, ON THE COURSE after the 8th whole and fired him on the spot. So much for class acts. This is my recollection of Landry's description of his firing from his autobiography. Feel free to correct any errors or omissions. I read it several years ago. Jones and Johnson, what a pair of Scuds.
  20. I met Jeff Nixon and got my picture taken with him on Draft Day 2000. Very nice guy. THIS Rochester area fan is sending in his membership renewal this week. I have to carry on the tradition since my father was a co-founder of the Boosters in 1961. I will probably make it up for the next meeting at the Ralph.
  21. Did someone fart? Oh, Hi Mike!
  22. You'd like that, eh Harriet?!
  23. The first day he showed up in Training Camp at Fisher, I was amazed by him. You are right, if it was in his direction he would catch the ball. Since his rookie season he has been a bust - a one hit wonder?
