  1. So what are you saying, he breathed in too much of the dust from Bethlehem Steel?
  2. I remember the classic picture of the speed limit sign after that Broncos loss. "Speed Limit 55, Broncos 10"
  3. It has been discussed ad nauseum on this board about the Pegulas owning both the Bills and Sabres so I found the current ownerships of Stan Kroenke interesting. On top of owning the Rams, he owns the Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche. So, despite what we had heard about an NFL owner can own a team in another sport in another city as long as there is no team in his city in that league, how was he allowed to own the Avs when St Louis has the Blues? There is no NBA team in St Louis so his owning the Nuggets would be fine. Now that he's moving the Rams to Southern California, where there are 2 teams each in the LA area in the NBA, NHL & MLB, will he have to sell his shares in the Nuggets & Avs?
  4. Is Karras related to Alex Karras?
  5. To use Rex's statement on Wade's success, "the history speaks for itself"
  6. Remember, the trade of Ron McDole after the 1970 season to George Allen's Redskins because he was getting too old. He went on to play 8 seasons for Washington.
  7. I guess the Kelly era Bills were just continuing the partying tradition. By the way, Cookie was traded after the 1964 season so he wouldn't have played in that game.
  8. Thanks for the info. I thought it was last week and I missed it.
  9. Maybe Lynch lobbied for it. Every time one of their RBs went down or were let go (Michel) you'd think it was an opportunity for Fred but they always put someone else in there. They even brought Michel back when Rawls went down and he started. My sarcasm meter is pinging to the right. Is it operating properly?
  10. I know I shouldn't let it, but it still irks me that all we ended up getting in return for him was Chris Hairston & Tank Carder. Yuck! And he had 4 great seasons with the Seahawks helping them get to 2 Super Bowls.
  11. The Bills trade Mario and their 1st and 3rd round picks to Tennessee for the 1st pick and draft Jared Goff.
  12. Happy 24th birthday to Seantrell Henderson! Hope you are doing well!
  13. Remember Seattle also signed Whitehurst and Flynn to big deals but they made 2 Super Bowls. You have to take risks. Some will work and some won't. I say the Bills took the risk with Harvin and it didn't work out. Time to move on.
  14. I would've taken the job for no pay. Damn
  15. Well, since X-Files supposedly killed off the Smoking Man in the original series finale in 2002, there is hope. I saw that the actor, William B. Davis, is supposed to be in the upcoming mini-series but hopefully it's just in flashbacks.
  16. Blast from the past with your handle. I wonder how many people on this board even know who John Gianelli was?
  17. Damn, the last couple of years: Ralph Wilson, Van Miller, Bob Kaufman, now Marchibroda. I think I'm also forgetting someone?
  18. If they didn't wear helmets, nobody would be leading with their heads. Seahawks are learning to tackle like rugby players.
  19. Yes, they were number one in kickoff average allowed. Now, about that roster spot that's taken by a kickoff specialist. The Bills were 17th in number of touchbacks. Stats I'm looking at don't show percentages though with the Bills just over 50% (42 of 82)
  20. Jamon Meredith, David Nelson, Thad Lewis, Fitz, Tarvaris Jackson, Fred, Kelvin Sheppard, Chris Hairston and Legursky.
  21. OK now the Bills should trade for the rights to Justin Blackmon and Josh Gordon.
  22. Why would they sign a free agent TE when they just shelled out all that money for Charles Clay?
  23. In the TV series Paper Chase in the 1970s, one of the characters occasionally wore Bills clothing.
  24. Hopefully this will finally put an end to this discussion. http://www.nytimes.com/1997/03/12/sports/nfl-to-let-owners-have-franchises-in-multiple-sports.html
  25. So, where did you get those rose-colored glasses? I still can't believe that a head coach with Rex's experience responded to a question about why he didn't challenge a play call with "because they didn't show the replay on the video board".
