Rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb, you know better but I know him. Like I told you, what I said, Steal your face right off your head. Now he's gone, now he's gone, Lord he's gone, he's gone. Like a steam locomotive, rollin' down the track He's gone, gone, nothin's gonna bring him back, he's gone. Nine mile skid, on a ten mile ride, hot as a pistol but cool inside. Cat on a tin roof, dogs in a pile, Nothin' left to do but smile, smile, smile! Now he's gone, now he's gone Lord he's gone, he's gone. Like a steam locomotive, rollin' down the track He's gone, gone, nothin's gonna bring him back, he's gone.

The End of the Lamar Jackson Era
Bill from NYC replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Good point wrt OJ. The game has changed to the degree that the running back position has been seriously diminished in importance. Don't misunderstand, I love a good running game and a player like Derek Henry is very exciting to me, but today fans seem to want high power passing games and Arena League scores. Old timers like us tend to prefer balanced offenses and strong defenses. -
The End of the Lamar Jackson Era
Bill from NYC replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Good points. Before Brady passed him, Joe Montana was regarded by a whole lot of fans and sportswriters as the GOAT, however; I heard MANY players say that they felt that Steve Young was better than him. One thing is certain, running quarterbacks are thrilling to watch both in the NFL and college. That said, they get hurt. It virtually HAS to happen because every NFL player gets hurt and a running quarterback increases his exposure. The rules are set up now to protect QBs and running and getting hit by genetic mutants can work in the short term, but will eventually get a QB slaughtered. Btw the above includes our Josh. I was VERY happy when we drafted him and I didn't even know that he was a great runner. He has the potential to be the most exciting player in the history of the Bills. Yeah, I know this is a bold statement. My wish for him is that as time passes he runs less, the thrill of watching him do so notwithstanding. In summary, Jackson is a fine QB imo. I don't know if the will ever have an "era," however he is good enough to win titles for his team IF he lasts. As always, JMO. -
I find it impossible to argue with this post. Seriously, talk about hitting the nail on the head!!! Yes,after the strike, people found out that there were other things to do in the summer than watch baseball. Then McGuire came along with 18 inch forearms and was hitting 550 ft. home runs. Steroids ruled the day and even the ball was juiced. Today, whether or not we agree with them, there is ZERO doubt that some fans are furious with the politics of the NFL and some of the players. The NFL isn't stupid and wants these big spending fans back. Period. Again, great post.

Buffalo SB Win OR Election Victory?
Bill from NYC replied to Numark3's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
In the "credit where it's due" department, you do raise a very good point. -
I sent a letter to a man I know Said, "One for the money and two for the show" I wait all summer for his reply Said, "Three to get ready and four to fly" Only two things in the world I love That's rock 'n' roll and my turtle dove When I was a young man, I needed good luck But I'm a little bit older now and I know my stuff Come on honey let me sing 'em away Come on honey let me sing 'em away Oh honey let me sing your blues away

Inside track on Lawrence after 2 weeks?
Bill from NYC replied to 4merper4mer's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am going to respectfully, but strongly disagree. I don't think that Lawrence and Fields are on the same planet. Lawrence is 5x better as a passer and he too can move. Of course, this is jmo. Yours is an interesting scenario. I would consider it even a bit low for this kid. He might be considered the best prospect since Petyton Manning or even John Elway. -
See the curtains hangin' in the window, in the evenin' on a Friday night A little light a-shinin' through the window, lets me know everything is alright Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind

Maybe you should mind you own business. -
Buffalo SB Win OR Election Victory?
Bill from NYC replied to Numark3's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Taking it even a step further, this election means more to me that a Bills Super Bowl and a National Title for the Crimson Tide combined, but I will not be in a crying room if my candidate loses. -

100% election victory. Buffalo will have more chances to win than both candidates. -
I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes. The love that's all around me, And so the feeling grows.

Belichek’s Subway commercial
Bill from NYC replied to Jerry Jabber's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Maybe he made hundreds of thousands of dollars for a few hours of work. Also, I don't know; did he have to pay out lots of cash in alimony? -
I don't want to spend my time in hell Looking at the walls of a prison cell I don't ever want to play the part Of a statistic on a government chart There has to be an invisible sun It gives its heat to everyone There has to be an invisible sun That gives us hope when the whole day's done

The point spread is a trap. I'm looking at 31-13 Bills.

Week 2 Bills @ Dolphins Postgame Thread
Bill from NYC replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm not going to make a habit of this, but these are the Robert Hunter lyrics that come to mind and inspire me after 2 divisional wins. We deserve this SO much!!! I have spent my life Seeking all that's still unsung Bent my ear, to hear the tune And closed my eyes to see When there were no strings to play You played to me In the book of love's own dreams Where all the print is blood Where all the pages are my days And all my lights grow old When I had no wings to fly You flew to me You flew to me Let's win a Super Bowl!!!!! -
Who gets promoted when Daboll becomes a HC?
Bill from NYC replied to Bangarang's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This post , while maybe not so timely lol is to be taken seriously. Daboll has been a whipping boy in these parts but he is a great coach, one who Allen seems to love. Daboll coached for Belichick and Saban, perhaps the 2 best coaches ever. They thought highly of him as does Allen, but many of us complain about him. I agree with you in that he is gone after this season. I hope we win now! GO BILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
