  1. It's the WNY economy! Where will the money come from? Taxes are not a solid option, and ticket/parking/concession prices will fall far short. New Era is appreciated, but far from the big name corporate "stadium naming" entities that the other "new fangled" stadiums have found. I just don't see it in the future. Nothing will ever happen till the current bonds are fully amortized.
  2. Oh yeah, well you cut 150 miles of lawn.
  3. We got "old" by being patient. However, even that only goes just so far. Maybe most 20 somethings can't afford ticket(s)? Not saying that's a bad thing, because I can't either.
  4. Are you some other age when you're not around them?
  5. Maybe more like NO judgement? I suspect a Pats fan, maybe even Smerlas?
  6. Can't enjoy LaNova because I'm celiac (gluten free.) Loganberry is another story. My wife buys Costco Sangria, mixes it with orange juice, peach schnapps, loganberry syrup and a little 7-up for a fiz. That's very good! Our Wegmans only carries Crystal Beach brand, no Aunt Rosie's, but it's still good. Have you not ever had a Loganberry Shake at Ted's? Round Hill VA is in the very north, N of Dulles . I call that the communist part of Virginia. Lived in Sterling, in the 70's. It was OK then, but very different now. Used to enjoy the Concorde flying over.
  7. Miss Kitty's been gone a long time! She never got close to 71.
  8. Maybe I saw you there? The age question speaks for itself.
  9. Thanks to Al Gore's amazing internet, you are right. But it can cheer one up, in the off season. I live in the South. If anyone were to ask me if "I'm a yankee?" I say no, I'm a BILLS fan. That cheers me up too, no matter how the team is doing.
  10. No! 50 years have not been kind to the old house or the old neighborhood. Wait, 50 years have not been too kind to me, or the BILLS, either.
  11. Do we blame the meth, or the salt air?
  12. Get over it! Where's "None of the Above" on the "survey?"
  13. OK, so I'm not a Facebook person. I don't want people to "friend" me, know what I'm doing, where I've been, what I had for dinner etc.etc. Having said that, my wife IS, and just wanted to share this. It's from the BILLS MAFIA page, in Facebook, courtesy of my wife, who while from Florida, is a BILLS fan. I had to ask her what was so freakin funny, and this is what she showed me. Enjoy! Damn PROUD! “I'm from Buffalo. We eat chicken wings, not buffalo wings, and we only eat them in Buffalo. We drink Labatt Blue and Molson Canadian. Mighty Taco, NOT Taco Bell. Pop, not soda They are sneakers, not tennis shoes. It's a sucker, not a lollipop. Bison Chip Dip, La Nova Pizzeria, Aunt Rosie's Loganberry, Chevettas Chicken, and Ted's Hot Dogs are all too familiar. Our bars don't close until 4, We have fake IDs at 15, but we don't need them at 19-Canada. Jim's Steak Out at 4am is calling it an early night... We never cuss, but we swear way too much. We know that a 65 mph speed limit really means 80. We will cut you off, swear, and give you the finger if you are not keeping up AND do it all in the snow, while expecting nothing less in return. Driving in the snow not only comes naturally, it's fun. We start the weekends off right at Thursdays We lived through Wide Right, The Forward Lateral, and No Goal. We love the Bills (no matter what) and accept that it takes 2 hours to get home from a game. Nothing closes in 3 feet of snow or -20 windchills... in fact, that's how we prefer to tailgate. We can correctly pronounce, spell, and identify Chippewa, Scajaquada, Lackawanna, Cheektowaga, Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, without hesitation. We are 30 minutes from another country, one of the seven wonders of the world, and even a few beaches. It's the second largest city in New York. I AM FROM BUFFALO, a drinking town with a sports problem, and damn proud"
  14. Just, Happy Birthday!
  15. You must have really been BAAAAD to get those Christmas "gifts!"
  16. I remember seeing a guy, at Busch Gardens-Williamsburg, about 13-14 years ago, with LOSMAN -7. Being a BILLS fan, thought it was cool, at the time. Often wonder where he is now? Does it FIT?
  17. Looking up "QB futility," there's the BILLS logo. We set the standard! I dare any other team to unseat us. BTW, we're long overdue to change, and I hope the past is not prologue, starting with this season. Not to take away from; Kemp, Lamonica, Ferguson, and Kelly but the years of blanks over almost 60 seasons is glaring.
  18. The guy's dead and still a genius!
  19. Very outdated, needs a complete interior gut, and no pool??? $320,000.
  20. We have pretty much cut out the "wedding" visits. They never last, so what's the big deal?? Now we just make the funerals. There's more certainty there, and usually a better bar.
  21. Sorry for your loss. Sad to say but several of our best cats are buried in our yard. Have 3 now but still really miss a few from the past.
  22. Maybe even a new airport for Buffalo & Rochester??
  23. There is always safety in numbers. I would Never consider going to a road game, wearing anything with Bills on it, unless I was with a large group. That's pretty sad, but that's been my experience(s).
