April 5, 1974 - BILLS INTRODUCE NEW LOGO The Bills announced a major change in the team's logo for the 1974 season. Gone was the red standing buffalo that had been the team's mark since 1962. It was replaced by a blue charging buffalo with a red streak, the crowning achievement of artist Stevens Wright. How the Bills got their name: Following the 1946 season, in an effort to generate more fan interest and distinguish the football team from the city's minor league baseball and hockey teams, which also bore the name "Bisons," the team ran a contest to select a new name. Over 4,500 entries were submitted, and "the Bills" won out over "Bullets," "Nickels" and "Blue Devils." Several contestants suggested the winning name, but James F. Dyson was named the winner of the $500 prize based on his essay comparing the team to a band of "Buffalo Bills." He wrote that, while the legendary Indian Scout William "Buffalo Bill" Cody helped trailblaze the American Frontier, the football team (owned by the president of Frontier Oil) was opening a new frontier in Buffalo sports.

1,000% agree that this whole setup is stupid. Still, I can't fault someone for furthering their education, its not really his fault, its the system in place.

Just heard that on the way over to the supermarket. Georgia, the entire state, is getting absolutely hammered by rain, storms, and wind right now but it looks to clear out by Thursday for the most part. https://www.baynews9.com/fl/tampa/weather/travel#Southeast_Radar-WX

Behind a paywall but this is what I have: BUFFALONEWS.COM Record-setting goalie prospect Devon Levi informs Sabres he's returning to school Devon Levi, a record-setting sophomore goaltender at Northeastern University, informed the Buffalo Sabres on Monday that he is returning to school for his junior season, sources told The Buffalo News.

Somewhere, Jayhawk is a happy camper.

Pretty much forgotten. Never got into them but they were around. Kind of like Black Oak Arkansas.

I'm gonna say that it was the French's mustard that did them in.

I'd forgotten about this with all the Bills news, Its going to be strange watching without the fellow lefty in there. Go Freddie lol.

I heard on the local sports radio this morning that he was calling it a game time decision.

No Phil this year, kind of surprised me. I have a plant/bush called yesterday, today, and tomorrow... once that baby blooms I know the Masters is just a couple of weeks away, never fails. Masters website: https://www.masters.com/index.html

Back when we were high tech:

Just reopened:

Tbh... this is a boring story. Rich people fight among themselves lol.

Hope you are right! Just heard RJ is doing the call and then I remembered that he will do all of the home games this month until he retires.

Matinee game at 1pm today... Panthers, the top team in the conference, @ the Sabres. We are 6-1-3 in the last ten games, this is going to be a real challenge. Hope they are still riding the high from Friday night.

Not going to be that high lol... where did you hear this?

Ever since the LV game this team has been electric... I may have missed only one or two games but its kind of strange to look forward to them even though we don't have a dog in the race. Great Night, long live RJ.

Yeah, it was great... gave me the feels for sure. Tonight Rick is the man of honor, won't be calling any of it... we'd better pull out a win.

One of my hero's, whom I've never met... like Van and Tim. Looking forward to the ceremony, been listening to him since I was a kid and I'm not far from collecting SS now. Everything I've heard is that parking will be difficult, sold out crowd of 19,000 or so. Really going to miss him. https://www.nhl.com/sabres/news/april-1-2022-sharpen-up-buffalo-sabres-rj-night-preview-rick-jeanneret-banner-ceremony-nashville-predators-game-night/c-332513974

This reminded me of a thread... put the Don Kirshners RC one in there. Agree, they were good and under the radar.
