BuffAlone Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 Can't believe the yard from scrimmage leader several years in a row, on top off his overall stats, seen him NOT be a first ballot HOF'er. Shame/Sham. Bout time Thurmal!
26CornerBlitz Posted October 23, 2018 Author Posted October 23, 2018 This might be the best thing about the game on Monday.

Should of been a first ballot HOFer. he fit into an excellent system, if he was on a bad team he wouldn't have been all that much Juice was 3 times the RB Juice CARRIED the franchise to a playoff game, literally.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 24, 2018 Author Posted October 24, 2018 From BuffaloBills.com Top Seven Storylines for MNF against NE: HALL OF FAMER IN THE SPOTLIGHT Hall of Fame RB Thurman Thomas decorated career will be in the spotlight all week, as the Bills get set to retire his number 34 at halftime Monday night. He’ll join Jim Kelly and Bruce Smith as the only other Bills to get their jersey numbers officially retired. Dozens of Thomas’ former Bills teammates are expected in town for a reception Sunday night and the ceremony at halftime. And ESPN is expected to spend considerable time during their pregame pump-up to honor “Thurm.”
nucci Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 so the place empties out after the ceremony being down 35-3 at the half?
Fadingpain Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 It's a shame the number retirement is taking place on this night of all nights. It would be great if the team could find a way to win this game.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 24, 2018 Author Posted October 24, 2018 As the Bills prepare to retire Thurman Thomas' number, Hall of Famers reflect on his rightful place in 'the legacy of 34' By Tim Graham - The Athletic There’s power within a jersey number. Some carry a mystique. The first time Thurman Thomas pulled the No. 34 over his shoulder pads at Willowridge High, he wanted to channel his hometown hero, Houston Oilers running back Earl Campbell. The final time Thomas took off his No. 34, he’d so comprehensively established his own legacy that no Buffalo Bills player would wear that number again. No. 34 has been out of circulation since Thomas’ last game in 1999. The Bills on Monday night will make it official like they did with Jim Kelly’s No. 12 and Bruce Smith’s No. 78. “It’s a great thing for Thurman Thomas that the Bills want to retire his number,” all-time NFL leading rusher Emmitt Smith said. “It’s well-deserved.
Elite Poster Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Probably the worst game of the year to do it at. It's a shame.

Billsfanatic8989 Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Why couldn't they honor him before the game? It'll feel odd to do it at halftime of a blowout game.
davspo Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Poor Thurman- he deserves to go out in a more classy way then watching his team in the middle of a butt whipping.
