    They left their hearts in Buffalo

    in The Stadium Wall Archives

    Posted

    After moving from Buffalo after graduating, my wife and I have lived in NYC; Greenwich, CT; and now Texas for the last 14 years.

     

    And quite frankly, after living elsewhere and going back to visit Buffalo once a year, I have found Buffalo and WNY to be one of the most bigoted and prejudiced places around. No other place that I have been to even comes close (and that includes the Southern U.S.).

     

    I hate to burst your bubble, but it's true (unfortunately).

    Sorry gotta disagree with you on that statement. Ever been to South Carolina?

    haha... Thanks. I was up there over the 4th of July right before I came out here to Iraq and they put on the best freakin fireworks show I'd ever seen. I couldn't believe how good that show was. Olean is a very patriotic town. I love that....

    Have a Merry Christmas and thank you for your service. Come home safe, there are bigger things to worry about than Tm Donahue's future and Takeo Spikes ankle.

    I haven't aggressively yet. I have a little over two years until I can retire and if I can talk my wife into it, I will be. I know there's nothing in Olean because I have a lot of family there still but until I get to within about 6 months I can't look too much. I will try though, that's where I would love to live.

    Hey USMC - Did you graduate from Olean High or Walsh?

    The Top Five Reasons You Can't Blame

    The kick was missed because Frank Reich failed to turn the laces forward.  Any right footed kicker's ball will hook left several feet during the flight toward the posts, but since the laces were sideways, they affected the trajectory and it did not hook left at all.

     

    When the ball left his foot, I was sure it was going dead center.  I had wondered why the ball didn't hook, and read an article quoting Morton Andersen saying it was Reich's fault.  Next time I saw the replay, I thought, Damn!  He's right.  Andersen praised Norwood for not pointing the finger at his holder.

    I'll make sure to ask Frank when we have lunch again about this. Laces in or out, you should kick the ball straight IMHO.

    7. Thought our rookie qb who had a broken leg a majority of the previous season was ready over a qb who was one game away from playoff contention after a 0-4 start-Missed

     

     

     

     

    No - I'd give him a WIN on that one. Look at how Bledsoe is showing his true colors when the season is on the line in Dallas. This team would still be 4-10 with him here...

    I live in Charlotte, NC and have for the past 17 years. I grew up in Allegany, NY - the sticks of WNY. I have very fond memories of my hometown and the entire WNY region. I like Charlotte, but it's a city without a soul. It has nice weather, but now because the city is growing at a rapid pace, so is the crime and traffic.

     

    Funny, but most of my friends down here are from up north. You can always tell the WNY'ers because they are down-to-earth and want to talk sports. I attended a party on Saturday night at a neighbor who is the Danny Neverth of Charlotte television. Tons of Charlotte TV folks, anchors attended. I spent the majority of the night chatting with his cameraman from Williamsville. We lamented about our Bills and didn't dare turn on a tv. We knew what the result would be, so we talked Sabres. My star-struck wife was bouncing from anchor to anchor and I worried about the Bills with a fellow WNY. Maybe it is a sickness?

     

    If I could find a job in WNY, I would consider moving back. I had a great childhood and want my kids to experience that joy.

    Would you rather the Bills stayed with Bledsoe, who likely won't be taking the Cowboys to the playoffs either?  Or is there some other magical player that is a can't-miss prospect?

    I work with a kid, huge Cowboys fan. I told him in August that Bledsoe might look good early, but he'll break your heart come crunch time. He thanked me today for warning him.

     

    I'll be seeing Mr. Bledsoe this weekend playing the Panthers. I have a feeling Carolina will tear him apart...

    Wasnt the "grooming' supposed to have been last year behind Bledsoe?  Sure he was hurt, but what else did he have to do except study football day in and day out.

     

    Dude was downtown partying instead of earning his millions.

    Please for the love of god stop. Jesus Christ could not throw behind this offensive line. I like Losman, the kid is dedicated to winning. He spent the entire summer at TBD and will do the same this year. We all want a quick fix. The drive through mentality has got to end. We forget about much rookie quarterbacks suck. Give the kid some time to prove himself and quit throwing him to the lions. Put him in and let him take the lumps and learn. Hell MM even screwed that up!

    Why does the Sabres website suck?

    When it check out the latest news on the team and found I could order a Rick Jeanerette CD for Christmas. Fill out the form and wait 15 minutes - nothing. To make matters worse the website main area doesn't come up (done in Flash?). I am just amazed a professional sports team has a horrible site.

     

     

    GO SABRES!!! BUT PLEASE REDO YOUR SITE!!!!!

    Frank Reich for HC

    I've tried my best to get Frank to coach or after some games even play quarterback for the Bills. I had lunch with him last week and he's extremely busy running a Seminary here in Charlotte and raising his family. I'm thinking it would be a stretch for Frank to be the next Bills head coach. For selfish reasons, I'd love it, but its not gonna happen. :doh:

    I'm sure Leinhart will excel in Bflo. playing behind this line. Remember folks, he barely gets his jersey dirty. Look at what Drew Bledsoe is doing in Dallas! My god people, give a QB a decent line, a chance to throw and it will work wonders. JP will be a good QB in this league. Give him some time and an offensive line. I'm not ready to press the PANIC BUTTON yet.
