Here are my pics for game balls - did I forget anyone? "Old Al Davis had it right, didn’t he? You know, the whole “Just win, baby” mantra? In the end, a “W” is all that will be remembered – not the maddening fashion in which a coach seemed to conspire to snatch defeat away from the jaws of victory only to have it returned to his team in a series of events that would truly put a keen edge on Ockham’s razor." http://niagarahub.fatcow.com/category/nfl-football/

The Cardinals have an awful Offensive line - even the Bills' woeful defense should be able to keep their backs in check. (I hope)

Thanks

Whoever posts it to the web gets listed as the poster - the columns are all written by me. Staba and I wrote together for years at the Reporter - the pizza and wing report is a bit of an homage to him.

I'm picking The Bills to save their season this week - here's why... http://niagarahub.fa...y/nfl-football/

Bills-49ers recap with game balls. http://niagarahub.com/2012/10/08/bills-thrills-bills-have-49-problems-and-a-fitz-is-1/#comments

Picking anyone deserving of game balls was hard work, but I do think Chan needs to realize he's in a crucial third year and won't get a fourth giving up 550 yards + per game. http://niagarahub.fatcow.com/category/nfl-football/

Pizza report is always with the Monday column. I like Goodfella's too, but am always a fan of Sammy's. Go to Michael's and try the Greek Chicken wings - made with feta cheese - really diffferent and really tasty.

At this point you have to wonder if Morrison will ever see the field again as a Bill.

Sheppard, Chandler key for Bills to have a shot at winning. http://niagarahub.fatcow.com/category/nfl-football/

Anytime you turn the ball over more than your opponent you are normally going to lose the game. I thought it was pretty lame when Chan rolled out the same argument in his presser after the game. Turnovers are a huge part of the NFL pecking order - bad teams make them and good teams force them. If the Bills want to win games they need to play better on all levels - period!

Oh, and my editor is a huge *Pats fan so you can imagine how much s*it I've had to take over the past 48 hours.

Here is the recap and game balls (yes, there were a couple) for the Bills-*Pats game. I picked the Bills to win by 10, so please pass the salt so I can eat my hat. http://niagarahub.com/2012/10/01/bills-thrills-patsbills-recap-pizza-and-wings-from-papa-leos-were-quite-delightful/

"Did not know Trusello's had been reborn... the old place was around the corner from home... I loved that bread almost as much as I loved the pizza. And of course it was fun to go into that OSHA nightmare that was the one-room bakery and store." Not to hijack my own thread into a pizza and bread discussion, but a place called E. Antonio's in Wilson has recreated the bread flawlessly (and the pizza too, for that matter). If I had a time machine I'd go back to 1977, just to walk into the old Trusello's on Elmwood Ave and drink in the smell of the flour and oil.

Trusello pizza is back - just in Lewiston now - no bread though Remember doing this last year? Get ready for an encore. Go Bills!!!!

Different, LaHacienda, San Jose. It's not Bob and John's -it's on Pine Avenue in the Falls and is owned by a great guy named Aldo.Seriously, go there for a pie the next time you're in town (and bring cash because they're so busy they can get away with not accepting plastic).

I'm holding the pizza because I rate the offering from a different establishment with each Monday column. Oh, and it's a slice from LaHacienda (the best in WNY in my humble opinion).

Look, something has changed Marcia is long in the tooth *Pats ain't what they were

If *Pats fans are counting on refs to deliver a win, things are worse in New England-ville than I even imagined.

I'll catch you after the game...and if I'm wrong, I'll use your Romney quote.

"The Patriots are the football equivalent of too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere: they're in for a long, hard drought, but their fans are trying to convince themselves that it's just a short-term setback." "Bills' fans can take heart in the fact that this is not your father's New England Patriot squad that will invade RWS this Sunday (nor your slightly older brother's, for that matter). For starters, these Patriots come in with a losing record of 1-2 and it is a record that they rightfully deserve after losing to Arizona at home and blowing a two-score 4th quarter lead against the Ravens last week." http://niagarahub.fatcow.com/category/nfl-football/

Happy for such a class guy to find a new home so quickly, but hard to see him in this uni.

Two things: The first is that I'm surprised that the NFL.com page printed Jackson's "WTF" tweet. I know it's shorthand, but it is still an obscinity and if a player uttered the same aloud he would probably get fined. Second, is that Moorman holding on kicks is more of an immediate concern for me with this move. he is rock solid there and I hope we don't see Lindell have issues. Will Powell hold or is there someone else on the roster that has that skill set?

If it's real, it's a shocker! Powell did look strong, so maybe it will solidify the position for the next decade.

Come on, no takers on the Banned Books challenge?
