This. This subject comes up periodically - and this "game" is head and shoulders below all the rest. Flying in, we just found out our kids had swine flu. My son went to the game anyway - and he (also) remembers it as one of the worst experiences of his life. We had the worst seats I ever had at a game (top corner upper deck) - with the bitter cold wind just cutting into your bones. I just remember sitting there wishing over and over for it to be over. The only interesting thing that happened was a drunk tripping while running down the stairs and going full superman airborne right in front of us about 20 rows - had to be a world record. Can't believe the guy didn't die. All who attended died a little that day. There was another horrible Cleveland game in the mid-80s I think that was the only rival - freezing cold with rain - I was literally shivering the whole 2nd half thinking WTF am I doing?

You'd need a quantum computer to calculate all the permutations of Bills starting QBs and their college RBs over the last 17 years

Bills Beat Deep

Slightly off topic but the greatest nickname in all of sports - "The Great One"

Bills Run Deep

That's all great - but how do we get rid of the train horn?

Too bad we don't have sigs anymore

Josh Allen is really growing on me more and more

OK thanks. I see now the non-night ticketed practices (@ 8:45, 2:15) are weekend so that makes sense now.

So if you live out of town you would have to find someone to get them for you? Is there a cost or are they free? I guess I don't get the point of the tickets - I can see for night time practices where it might get filled to capacity - but for a practice at 8:30 in the morning?

Can someone explain how/where you get tickets for ticketed practices? (I thought historically the night practices were the ticketed ones - but doesn't seem to be the case)

Wow - that was one positive, feel-good summary

Love hearing Shady when he's in a real positive mood

Cleveland will come calling during TC when they realize nether Tyrod or Baker are viable options ?

Another serious vote for getting rid of train horn. It is obnoxious to begin with - and went from being a 3rd down thing to a constant annoyance throughout the game. It is pure bush league. I have never heard a person say they like it - but have heard plenty who hate it. They need to do an informal fan poll if they don't realize the opinion of the fans on this one - and get rid of it once and for all. I also feel strongly that for 'Leading the Charge', the guest of honor should be on a golf cart on the field and actually, you know, lead the charge? Standing there stationary waving a flag to 'lead the charge' is ridiculous. Billy Buffalo I guess gets a stay of execution since apparently he wasn't the cause of the drought after all (although I do believe it's possible the really Billy Buffalo was killed in a secret ceremony allowing the Bills to make the playoffs and the hideous blue furry thing we see now is a masterful replacement)

Translation - I've taken many tests and never got caught

I was at this game. I remember when the game seemed out of reach fans just streaming out the stadium in numbers I had never seen before - and I said to my brother - "We're staying - this is going to be an Alcoa Fantastic Finish!" We were in the EZ behind the last drive - Hooks' diving catch down the middle was the greatest athletic play I have ever seen live in any sport. It was truly remarkable.

In my life I think this might have been my saddest most devastating Bills moment. Most people would say wide right, but that just caused me numbness. This play caused real pain - almost physical pain. I can still remember screaming NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! and the pain - the pain - just lingering. I used to keep a picture from SI of the ball bouncing off Harmon's hands in my home gym as motivation to get me angry when I would lift.

So the whole shower issue got resolved before that then - was there some final confrontation/agreement that he not use your shower, and then that was it?

Holy Crap. Not in your shower I hope

What was the final resolution to the epic Shower conundrum - don't think I followed it through to its conclusion (if in fact it is concluded )

Will he quit life if the Sabres don't draft Dahlin? What NBA lottery pick does he feel strongly enough about to quit sugary cereals for?

Yep - was just about to post this. Knew from the article he was getting worse but didn't think it would be this quick. RIP

Anticipating that whatever room I am in on July 11th watching the ESPYs will have an issue with it being dusty

What about Bills Run Deep?
