I have never heard anyone else but Dr. Z refer to the WNY November/December winds as "The Hawk." I grew up there, did I miss that day in school or something?

I actually thought DeRogatis and Curt Gowdy made a good pair...so much more professional than the carnival barkers they have today. BTW, do you know that Don Criqui has been in the booth now almost 40 years?!?!?! Criqui

Granted, Simpsons is one of the all-time greatest, but I think it lost some its edge when Phil Hartman died and took two of the best cameo characters, Troy McClure and Lionel Hutz, with him.

I never knew there were so many Rudolph spin-offs... And I wonder where I can find the Kenny G Christmas special: "Happy Birthday Jesus, hope you like crap." Norm MacDonald

I'm partial to the episode regarding the "Leftorium" myself....

And what it comes down to, is that the mighty NFL, of all the major pro and college leagues, remains the only one with a 'blackout rule.' Incredible.

OJ (wearing Bruno Maglis?) telling Bob Costas at halftime: "...the Bills just look out of it, and I don't know how they can come back." (Or something like that)

At 3-5, EVERYONE'S job is in jeopardy...from TD to the guy selling Labatts in the concourse, right down to the hockey kids selling candy bars in the parking lot. In a 3-5 environment, NO ONE is safe, as well it should be.

Suggest getting the DVD from Fezmid or the NFL Films version via the Bills proshop.

Thanks...sometimes we lose sight of the fact of just how good that '90-'93 team actually was, and need to face the same fact that we will never see a team as dominating playing in Orchard Park again in our lifetimes. I think that on Sunday, rather than flipping through the games on the Ticket, I'll pop in the tape from the '92 AFC championship vs Miami...and maybe next week, when KC is in town, pop in the '93 championship game with those same Chiefs. It's sad to see the troubles facing this year's 3-5 bunch and think back, and actually see on tape, the teams, and more importantly the MEN, who brought Bills fans soooo close to final glory.

Why did you make me Google this...I'm forever scared. lyrics

King starts off, "I was at The Expansion Bowl between Houston and Cleveland on Sunday," Why on earth was a national pro football writer for perhaps the weekly sports journal of record, SI, in Houston to see a game between the Browns and Texans?!?!? What could you possibly witness at this event to merit the trip...how do you convince your editor that this is the game you need to be at?

But there's a warm wind blowing the stars around...

Jerry Gray's defense is the squirt gun that shoots jelly....

Talked about this at length in another post...Jets fans and 4:15 start=Perfect Storm.

These are the types of situations where the NFL Network can chime in and broadcast the game live...but no, they don't think that way. The way I heard it explained is that the Sunday Ticket package is for Sunday games ONLY (and the occasional full slate of Saturday games, like this year)...check-cashing whore Tagliabue could have stepped up on this one, but in typical fashion, folded.

Same here, Lori. Jeeziz, I like beer, the Bills, and a good time as much as anyone, but what I witnessed last Sunday was WAY over the line...Buff News said 128 were "escorted" outta RWS. I've got to believe 127 were from the scoreboard endzone area.

Jets fans are the closest thing we have to European-style hooligans in this country... My favorite soccer (err, football) quote came from an English coach after the Brits were beaten by Germany, I believe in 1998: "Well, they beat us at our national game today but we beat them at theirs twice this century."

Didn't he lose a bunch on thousands of ear-muffs he bought in Canada and couldn't get them accross the border in time for a late-season Bills game? Remember reading about that one time...

Saw plenty of that just this past Sunday at RWS...saw guy decked out all in Pat gear, and thought, hey aren't your boys playing RIGHT NOW? Also saw a guy all in Raider stuff and thought the same thing.

Let me see if I get what you're saying:

Was at the Jets game Sunday, Sec. 142, scoreboard end zone, and watched a virtual parade of "fans" being escorted out of RWS by gentlemen in bright-colored jackets. Asked an Erie County sheriff later why all the commotion...he stated that because of the Jets, and their legions, and the 4:15 start, they were prepared for all the high-jinks. Maybe I’m getting old, but I can’t remember a game with soooo many a-holes in attendance, wearing both Jets and Bills colors…Jets fans were obnoxious as ever, but it seemed like a lot of Bills fans were taking the bait. After the game, Jets fans were still talking smack, you know, about losing four Super Bowls. Hate to imagine their “glee” if they pulled out a win.

I saw that live this morning...dopes Matt and Katie were laughing at the farce. Don't these people ever freakin' learn?

Can you believe it's been 30 years? "We're gonna win that Cup...we're gonna win that Stanley Cup...me and the Buffalo Sabres yeah, yeah, yeah..." Now I got that stupid song in my head!
