DC Tom Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 This thread serves as a GREAT honey pot. Now, with all the posts carefully marked to review we can start evaluating who should be fitted for the proverbial TBD cement shoes. Well done Die Hard! It saved us a ton of time. Want me to start a "Farewell, cruel board!" thread and maybe draw out a few more for you?
bowery4 Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) Costa was one of my favorites! Oh an Tom YOU are on the list already lol J/K Jason, Wow you choose to love the Bills? I thought it was a childhood disease I caught. Edited September 2, 2010 by bowery4
erynthered Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 I have had drinks in person with a few dozen of the posters here over the years, and I will tell you that some of the very nastiest, impolite, malodorous, feral and abusive of the posters are the nicest guys and women you'll ever meet. Thanks
OP Class75 Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Die Hard, I just signed up yesterday to this board after reading your post - I was compelled to do so....For One Reason....I have to say thanks for the memories!! If you ever practiced at the old Camelot Hotel on Milestrip road, I'm certain our paths have crossed. The assistants would let my friends and I help retrieve balls and set up obstacles on the practice field, etc....From this 53 year old kid.....thanks for the great memories!!!!
Original Byrd Man Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 [/b] Too bad we had to switch him to OT to shore up poor O-line play.. Cunningham?? It is a shame. He played on some "BAD" BILLS teams, and left just as OJ was showing signs he could be the star the team drafted. Costa was one of my favorites! Oh an Tom YOU are on the list already lol J/K Jason, Wow you choose to love the Bills? I thought it was a childhood disease I caught. Costa was also one of my favorites. I loved that catch where he laid out to pull the pass. Out standing!
birdog1960 Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Remember the traffic that evening?? i remember waiting in the parking lot for about 2 hours and then waiting in traffic another hour to get home. we started a touch football game in the parking lot to kill time while we waited...most people took it in stride and made the best of it. they had traffic flow almost figured out by the next home game.
bruceisloose78 Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 This off season die hard will be taking his talents to the message boards at buffalobills.com
cåblelady Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 This off season die hard will be taking his talents to the message boards at buffalobills.com Does that board still suck as bad as it used to?
JasoninMT Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Bowery4 - Touche... It is a childhood disease, maybe I deluded myself into thinking I could choose otherwise... I'm in it for the long haul. About the only thing to break the tie would be if the team moves.
bowery4 Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 My school didn't have the vaccine and I got contaminated at the rockpile.
bills44 Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 I am Chidi Ahanotu, and I will remain on the board. I will, however, be posting from Toronto from Monday-Friday.
metzelaars_lives Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 OK guys, it's about time you knew. I am in fact Pete Metzelaars. Fire away, ask me anything, I won't shy away.
The Dean Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 I am Chidi Ahanotu, and I will remain on the board. I will, however, be posting from Toronto from Monday-Friday. I'm guessing that was funnier in your head. Still not too bad.
Billswatcher Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 For what it's worth, the only Bills player who officially was on the roster from '67 through '72 was Dick Cunningham, OT, Arkansas.
jwhit34 Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 For what it's worth, the only Bills player who officially was on the roster from '67 through '72 was Dick Cunningham, OT, Arkansas. You are correct, there are a couple that are close (Howard Kindig 67-71 then played for Miami in 72, John Pitts, 67-72 and a couple of games in 73) and Paul Costa played from 65-72 and Paul Guidry 66-72.
ChasBB Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 For what it's worth, the only Bills player who officially was on the roster from '67 through '72 was Dick Cunningham, OT, Arkansas. He is absent 1969 roster -- not on any team that year -- perhaps he was injured that year.
BuffaloBill Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 OK guys, it's about time you knew. I am in fact Pete Metzelaars. Fire away, ask me anything, I won't shy away. Any interest in coming back to play? You have to be better than anyone currently on the roster.
The Poojer Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 well the poster did say a 'playoff birth' was possible, so mistaking his 'berth' day isn't out of the realm of possibilities Hmmm.....If this ex-player has the correct birthday (6/13/46) listed in his profile, I have some questions. Nobody on the Bills roster between 1967-1972 was born on that day. Nobody on the 1967 team was born in 1946. If you assume that only the birth year is right in the profile, three players played from 1968-1972 with the Bills and were also born in 1946. So, either this person is (A) full of it or (B)got their birthday wrong in their profile and didn't know what year they started with the Bills when they posted their farewell. Just for fun, the Bills went 17- 64- 3 between 1967-1972 including two 1 win seasons (1-12-1 in 1968 and 1-13 in 1971).
Captain Caveman Posted September 3, 2010 Posted September 3, 2010 OK guys, it's about time you knew. I am in fact Pete Metzelaars. Fire away, ask me anything, I won't shy away. What kind of shampoo do you use?

I use a fake birthday in my profiles most of the time, and I keep the same month.... and so, I am confident it is Howard Kindig.
