Lamonica traded to Oakland because of rumors with Kemp’s wife. Nary a peep from the team, but all of WNY was talking about it like they knew. Much more likely the fans just hated the trade because they thought Daryl was the better QB..

That Bill Cowher would have been our coach if it wasn't for his wife (God rest her soul).

 

...TRUE story....the late RW offered Bill $10 mil/yr and Cowher texted back and forth with Brandon about it...the late Mrs C was Carolina comfy and wanted no part of life in Bflo, much the same as Sabres Drury had his wife nix re-signing versus the Rangers in the Big Apple......if Cowher wanted to return to coaching, the Carolina job was his (in his back yard) when Fox was fired....the booth was more comfy......

Old time, I thought this was true and almost had confirmation. 

 

Coach Cowher and I frequented the same Starbuck's in Raleigh (Six Forks and Lassiter Mill) for a number of years.  One Saturday morning he was in front of me in line and my boys had their Bills gear on....the Barista at the time was a kid from Buffalo and also a huge Bills fan. 

 

Both the Barista and I said, "Coach are we going to see you roaming the sidelines at Ralph Wilson Stadium next year?"  He just smiled at both of us and said Buffalo was a great football town.  I thought for sure we had him. 

 

A really nice man by the way... talked to my son -- who was a Mighty Mite pass rusher and tackle for about 10 minutes and gave him some good pointers.

The dope who slid down the railing in the upper deck was actually in cahoots with the people below, all in search of a big lawsuit/payday. He missed and landed in the wrong row, messing up their best laid plans. The rest is history. This is true. 

 

 

 

 

As far as you know.

...WOW!...thanks for sharing a great story.....a close friend of mine who was close friends with Brandon actually saw the texts on Russ' phone...couldn't believe Ralph would pony up $ 10 mil....they were also talking to Shanascam but he wanted too much control which hearkened back to the nightmarish control freak days of Donohole which collapsed Ralph's "Inner Circle of Trust"...hence he promoted Brandon into uncharted/no experience waters and "re-tired" Marv with polyglass radials from the 70's....and "F Troop" began......

Wide Right, they narrowed the uprights.

While the kick was in the air....NFL should pay for all the therapy Norwood needed.  Letting the Giants win like that was crazy..

You gotta cater to the big markets, like...well, that team from New Jersey.

The Bills lost SuperBowls because they were partying too much. Never mind that the Raiders were legendary partiers in the 70’s and 80’s but had little trouble winning.

Because da Raidahs’ opponents also showed up with a hangover so it was still a level playing field? :P

Oh, I know full well you wouldn’t, but was jokingly suggesting your friend might be ‘Dunkirk Don’, without you even knowing it.

...who the hell would need enemies??....some day, I'll post the details of Pegula's 4 year, $19.6 mil extension offer to Marrone and how that unfolded, eventually crashing...Brandon was already in Florida for the holidays and TP summoned Whaley to Boca.....
