BillsFanForever19 Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 http://www.nflplayers.com/players_network/...ion=qa&ID=37183 Roscoe claims that the Bills were his favorite NFL team as a kid. Do we buy it? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...5200992015&rd=1 Now this is interesting. The NFL Rookie Premiere took place just days ago. Topps' NFL cards aren't set to come out for months. But somehow this guy got one of Roscoe's personal cards from the set. It's really cool looking with Parrish in his shiny, new #11 home Bills jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBuffaloDisease Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 The Bills were ALSO Travis' favorite team growing up. I believe it, because they were a fun team to watch when these guys were just kids. The fact that they WERE their favorite team, despite them losing all 4 SB's, is pretty amazing though, since kids usually go with the front-runner just to fit in with the crowd, unless they live in the vicinity of a team.

MadBuffaloDisease Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 you mean, kids from Ohio might like a team like the Bills? They might, but they're closer to the Bengals and Browns. And Travis is from Florida. Bastige! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadBuffaloDisease Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Unfortunately, too close to the Bungles. Sorry man, I didn't look at your info and realize you were talking about yourself. I thought you were talking about Parrish. My bad. You're not a bastige. I can see the stadium from about 2 blocks away. My condolences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buftex Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Frankly, I buy Travis' story. I remember the week after he was drafted, a picture surfaced of him, somewhere (sorry can't remember) of Travis in a Bills jacket, probably 12 or 13 years old. Now Roscoe, on the other hand....good PR ploy though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Toboggan M.D Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I remember reading an old interview, a few months before he was drafted, and he asked which was his favorite team growing up and he said the bills. He also said that was the team he had hoped would draft him. Pretty sad ending for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
