  1. As a local WNYer one trend I am starting to notice that might also play a role into this is that it seems so many people are into doing the Bills road trip thing now and with the Steelers Sunday night game coming up next week I feel like a lot people are going to that game so in a sense it almost seems like people are overlooking this game. Personally I know many more people that are amped up and talking about going down to Pittsburgh for the big prime time game than talking about going to the Ravens game. I'm not saying this is the only factor but I do think it plays a role. I know people have always done the road trips but it really seems to be a growing phenomenon.
  2. Well deserved! I feel like this is only the beginning of accolades he will be receiving in his career. Feels great to have a front office that knows how to draft impact players for a change.
  3. Maybe everybody is saving their money for playoff tickets this year?
  4. It does seem like a generational thing to me as well but I'm not exactly sure why. A lot of the superstar athletes from the 90s and I'm sure before then had a larger than life feel to them and they carried themselves that way whereas it seems a lot of athletes nowadays seem a bit more grounded. Part of me wonders if its the power of social media and if they are being coached up to carry themselves a certain way.
  5. You really need to see this piece then. It will give you a different perspective of Bruce as a person, or who he grew into as a person I should say. I know my father wasn't a huge fan of Bruce as a person but I told him about this and he DVR'd it and I am going to go over and see him later today and watch it with him. I think a lot of those superstar players from the Super Bowl years were jerks originally but they really became outstanding men in life and I think Marv Levy deserves a huge credit for that the way he had an impact on them as men not just football players. Very special stuff He was in Cheektowaga for an autograph signing the weekend of the Patriots game and he was still in great shape for a 94 year old!
  6. He was a very good player, a classic overachiever but to me not close to a Hall of Famer. He belongs on whatever is the equivalent to Miami's Wall of Fame. He could already be inducted into that by now for all I know.
  7. Not at all...this is the big leagues kid....Go back and watch the Bills Super Bowl runs...Bruce, Biscuit, Leonard Smith all did similar things back in the day. Feels refreshing to finally have another Bills team with some swagger again
  8. You know Hell must be freezing over when Mel Kiper is the voice of reason and the Bills are 9-3
  9. Someone had a huge banner draped over the barrier from the stands between the field that said Bo Don't Know Snow and was shown on NFL Films all the time back then.
  10. He looks like the second coming of Troy Polamalu. He's gotta be a legitimate candidate for DPOY right now.
  11. Sadly I think there's some truth in that
  12. I've been to the Pinto tailgate many times but have yet to try Pete's Pizza...one of these days.
  13. He was one of us. He is right up there with any of them as far as guys who played for the Bills that represented the persona of WNY. Was an extremely sad day when he passed, can't believe it's been 8 years already.
  14. Watching at home. Bringing out the deep fryer for Wings, Fries, and Pizza Logs/Banana Pepper Logs
  15. We are one stud pass rusher away from being an Elite defense but boy we are getting close!
  16. Sabres Baby Sabres! Once the hockey game is over I will flip over to the football game. I have a buddy who is a Rams fan so I will be rooting for the Seahawks of course
  17. This is a pretty cool listen and gives a glimpse of the mutual respect between Bills fans and El Pres. Really cool that the Pinto crew backed him up instead of pleasing ESPN
  18. He does love Bills Mafia though! The Pizza Pete review is getting a ton of positive feedback all over the Social Media sites. Really great to see
  19. It's not just you. I'm not a regular in the Hammer lot but I try to stop by a few times a season for some bowling ball shots and to catch the Ketchup and Mustard thing once in awhile. But they really dragged on the pre ceremony yesterday and a lot of people in the crowd were getting restless and starting to complain. I agree that I think the Ketchup and Mustard thing is starting to jump the shark. With that said nothing but love and respect for the Pinto Man's tailgate party though.
  20. His catch radius is insane! Would be the perfect weapon for Allen to have
  21. DeAndre Hopkins(It's a shame Watkins didn't work out)
  22. No cell phones, no social media, a different type of fan mentality back then, just different times in general. You will never see crowds like that again in sports unfortunately ?
  23. Cannot believe nobody is mentioning Milano! He was all over the field today and played like a madman.
