Wouldn't have made the news

I started watching the Buffalo Plus YouTube channel during training camp this year. I enjoy the chemistry the 3 of them have. I saw Jenna walking around at the practice I went to. She looks even better in person.

Brady introduced himself to Josh's dad at a golf event last year and the first thing he said was "I love your son" The term check down isn't really a dirty word. It only has a negative connotation to Bills fans because of Trent Edwards and the nickname "Captain Check Down" 😆

Ralph was from Detroit. According to the Bills 50th anniversary DVD he and his father had a small stake in the Lions at one point. As far as Miami goes, I remember hearing there was an issue with a lease for the Orange Bowl and Ralph chose Buffalo instead.

Hard to believe it's been 10 years. My dad, brother, some friends, and I went to the home opener against Miami after it was announced that the Pegula's had agreed to buy the team. They also had the ceremony to honor Ralph. Jim Kelly was in the early stages of his cancer battle. The ovation he got when he stepped up to the podium to speak at the ceremony gave me chills. What an atmosphere that day! Not to mention the Bills went on the beat the snot out of the Dolphins that day too.

There is a "50 Greatest Drought Moments" video on YouTube. Of course the drought was brutal. But the video is kind of a fun watch. It was fun remembering where I was for some of the moments and what ones I was there for in person.

I was at this game too. I was gifted the tickets at about 8:00 the night before. I scrambled around to find someone to go with. I ended up taking a very attractive former classmate. It was her first NFL game. What a finish!

Sent!

I never tried to get tickets because I didn't know I'd be up that way at all during camp. But I'm on my up to visit my dad and go to the races with him tonight. Does anybody have an extra ticket or 2 for tomorrow morning's practice?

So why are they requiring tickets for every practice? I used to go every year and the night practices were the only ones that a ticket was required. The only thing I've attended recently was the blue and red scrimmage. I got a ticket to that because someone from work gave me one.

Toronto and the stadium naming rights always went hand in hand for me. On one hand we had to listen to Ralph and Russ Brandon whine about Buffalo being a small market and how selling a home game to Toronto was necessary to expand the fan base and create more revenue. On the other hand, they completely ignored a huge revenue stream by not selling the naming rights of the stadium for over 15 years. That has always infuriated me.

I didn't remember that Cornelius Bennett and Peyton Manning were teammates.

I remember watching this game with my dad. I was 11. I told him I thought they were going to block that FG

A group of us, including my dad and my brother attended the Bills/Bengals game in 2013. It was the one that Thad Lewis started at QB. There was a father and son sitting in front of us. It was the son's first game. He couldn't have been any more than 7 or 8 years old. Thad Lewis connected with Marquise Goodwin on a long TD pass late that tied the game. This kid turned around to high five my brother. My brother picked him up and held him over his head so he could high five the people behind us. The kid loved it and I don't think I've ever laughed that hard at a Bills game.

The Broncos probably wouldn't have cut him if he'd crashed on Von's couch that night. 😆
