  1. Niagara Falls Pirates and later Niagara Falls Rapids
  2. Thanks for the correction on Lou Piccone - sorry (but it still stings) On Bruce Smith, it was the REGULAR season game against the Bengals that year not the playoff game "There also was talk that Smith was battling a bad case of the flu that day. He has refused to address the subject specifically." Thanks again for correcting. Sorry - a few people corrected me that I had confused a few games - those were not the game
  3. The Bills are the NFL's official "red white and blue"!
  4. That delay of game on 4th down that nullified the 1st down completion to Lou Piccone still bothers me (and that Bruce Smith was out because had flu and had not his flu shot)
  5. I always separate OJ the player from OJ the person ... I grew up watching OJ, and aside from Jim Brown who was before my time, I don't think any other RB in NFL history comes close I think he had the greatest moves ever by a RB - only one who comes close is Barry Sanders. He had the most unique running style. You could watch videos of OJ's runs with the names, numbers, and uniforms blanked out, and you would still know it was OJ When you watch the video posted, keep in mind that those are not CAREER highlights but just one season! Everyone talks about his speed, but people forget how big and strong he was, and he was an unbelievable kick returner until he got injured returning a kick (against Cincinnati?) I think 75 was greater than 73 because of his receiving yards. Remember in those days, RB's were not catching passes like today
  6. One of the craziest plays I ever saw is at 45:33 At Boston, a fan sneaks on to the field and on last play of the game knocks down the sure game winning TD pass
  7. Exactly - the article says "Either should be on the block if the team gets a good vibe from ..." not that either "are"
  8. I would think catching footballs would be more relevant to improving his game! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: Dawson - why did you drop the wide open pass Dawson: I thought it was a ping pong ball
  9. A much overlooked play: a wide open Andre Reed dropping a pass on 3rd down a little past midfield late in the first half against the Giants in the Super Bowl At the time we were up, 12 to 3. If he holds on, we, minimally run out the clock or maximally score more points instead the Giants, get the ball and score late in the first half If he makes the catch, no one on TBDwould know what "wide right" means That was a gut wrencher. Went tailgating with a group of around 8 HS buddies right before school started,. Ruben Gant catches a pass late in the game to set up Tom Dempsey for the winning chip shot FG in the rain. Fans ready to go crazy and he missed it.
  10. It depends on where your seats were. If they were excellent seats (i.e. lower level between 35 and 50), there was always a market.
  11. you need BOTH - in the long term you want to be a perennial contender - but within that, there are greater windows of opportunity than others
  12. How many of you remember the years when there were 17 rounds in one day (and you never heard of anybody aside from the 1st round picks)?
  13. program from Bills - Jets 1974 (Hurricane Game) mint Ticket stubs (4) Bills-Patriots Sept 30 , 2012 RK
  14. I don't think it will cause to him to drop too much. The impact could be on teams picking 2 or 3 that might pass on him if the decision was close between him and another QB
  15. That is the "sunk cost fallacy" We can't get those draft picks backs so it is irrelevant what we spent in the past
  16. had he bought the Bills - he would not have run for president in 2016 (Just stating a fact - no political diatribe responses please)
  17. very happy - really like his unique skill set - need to find a way to get him the ball more
  18. Teams should never trade up except for a QB! Draft is a crapshoot and you want as many picks as possible
  19. He wrote he has not "yet seen the complaint" - does not mean he did not know about it Very odd that the attorney writes it is "not about $" but only files a civil complaint for $ and not a criminal complaint (does not mean he is innocent or guilty, but it is about $)
  20. now he can throw a pick six and TD for his 9th team This may be one of those sports records that may never be broken!
  21. Preston Ridlehuber III (for those who remember the 60's)
  22. A lot of times people think giving details of a game but not the score isn't giving anything away. A friend of mine taped a basketball game and his friend said "Great game 3OT - but I won't tell you the result"
  23. The garbage time 51 yard TD run against the Broncos - added 0.33 to his YPC (I know other runners have those as well)
  24. There goes two of Colin Cowherd's dominos down the drain
