  1. What a blast being there!
  2. I listened to this game via shortwave radio on the roof of a 20 story building in Saudi Arabia and was going wild; great post!
  3. Super Bowl coined by the media and then adopted in 1967; NFL/AFL officially referred to it the world championship, check out the program.
  4. Tom Day was a phenomenal guy; the players were just normal guys back then who lived, worked, and hung out in the community like we did. Marty Schottenheimer used to play uecker at a local bar and Paul Costa would arm wrestle for beers, he never lost!
  5. With you, seen the first playoff in 1966 the decided who went to the first World Championship now known as the Super Bowl; family season tickets since 1960!
  6. During the mid 1960's many of us wore white sneakers and loved Otis Taylor despite playing for the Chiefs!
  7. This topic brings morons out of the woodwork; so many political sites to go to but we have this need to get in each others face here!
  8. Now all we need is Chan!
  9. Ya, was at that one too!
  10. Fergy used to hang out at some bar on Oliver Street in North Tonawanda to watch the Razorbacks play on Saturdays - maybe Klimeks? Smerlas and Haslett used to drop in to McKays Third Base on Oliver Street just down the road from Klimeks!
  11. I agree, great arm but just could not get the job done at times!
  12. The Eagles were the first NFL team to visit the Rockpile and was probably the greatest pre - season game I ever saw; 4th quarter and both teams still playing starters. Tension almost like a playoff game and Tom Flores hooking up with Art Powell, both having a great night. Tom Flores gets injured and in comes Jack Kemp to loud and thunderous boo birds. First snap Kemp hits Dubenion for a 69 yard TD turning the boo birds to a standing ovation
  13. But the signing was announced the next day; I was at that game and loved to watch Lombardi pace the sideline. Mini Max Anderson had a big night!
  14. Dante, I think it was the lowest of the low points, crowd was just hostile, not drunk, just hostile!
  15. I was at that game; painful!
  16. 1977, The Washington Redskins beat the Bills 10 - 0; it was cold, small crowd, really sloppy football, and the Bills really sucked! During the 4th quarter the few Bills fans attending were openly hostile chanting "We Want Wilson!" Man I remember that! 1968, another nightmare season, Chargers beat the Bills 21 - 6; just horrible play. You know it's bad when the home team gets a standing ovation getting a first down!
  17. I am not going there, but I do believe Biscuit fancies himself as an enlightened modern version of "Che" out to save the downtrodden!
  18. Keep dreaming, he's toxic and no wants him with good reason. Possibly check the CFL next year he may be a back up! I can see you are quite the intellect!
  19. Slowly back away from the bar, put the drink down, and get coffee!
  20. Lot's of credence to this, Giants had a big physical offense line and Jeff Wright, Smerlas replacement at nose tackle was a speed and finesse guy. Smerlas size ability may have at least slowed OJ Anderson; great post DCBongo!
