2003 Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Bills are starting to believe after 3-0 start September 21, 2008 6:43 PM Posted by ESPN.com's Tim Graham ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- A sacrilegious cheer resounded at Ralph Wilson Stadium sometime in the fourth quarter. Buffalo Bills fans actually were rooting for the Miami Dolphins. The update flashed: Dolphins 35, Patriots 13. "A couple guys started chanting that Miami's winning," Bills defensive end Chris Kelsay said. "Towards the end of the fourth quarter we were on the sideline, and I glance up and it's way out of hand. It was obvious Miami was going to win that game." http://myespn.go.com/blogs/afceast
SDS Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Sunday's final play gave the Bills their first lead. No, it wasn't... we led 7-6 Timmah!
The Dean Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 And Tim should know, Bills fans weren't rooting for Miami. They were rooting AGAINST the Pats*. (I had to explain that to some confused people at the bar, too.) Miami can rot in hell. Pats* getting beat is what the cheering was about.
drnykterstein Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 His blog has turned into a full fledged Bills lovefest. Not that I'm complaining.
Steely Dan Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 Great article. My favorite part: "We didn't play well, and everybody stayed positive," Bills receiver Lee Evans said. Edwards "stayed positive, stayed a leader in the huddle. We just kept plugging away." In his after game press conference TE said he really wanted to win it for his teammates but he mostly wanted to win it for coach Jauron and that there were a lot of guys in the lockerroom that felt the same way.
l< j Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 I like the stuff he writes and everything but what does this mean? Reports out of Oakland had been portending Kiffin's ouster since their abdominal loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 1. This is from TG's blog post on Kiffin, a little further down on that page.

Just Jack Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 An earlier post of his, our very own Lori showed him the Pinto.... Example A why Buffalo Bills fan rock
TimGraham Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 No, it wasn't... we led 7-6 Timmah! I fixed it. Sorry about that.
SilverNRed Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 I fixed it. Sorry about that. If it makes you feel any better, when the FG went through to end the game I threw my hands in the air and yelled "first lead of the game!" It really felt that way, didn't it?
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 Actually, I kinda like Tim hanging around this board. It's keeps him close to the pulse of the Buffalo Bills. Hey Tim, let's try and keep the whole Stroud thing quiet...we don't want anyone to know this is the first time we've seen collapsing pockets for the OTHER teams offense in a LONG time.
Acantha Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 "Hopefully we get more respect in this division and we will deserve it," Mitchell said. "We've won the first quarter of the season, if you break it up into four games each. That's a nice feeling.
JujuFish Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 A winning record is one above .500. Regardless of how they do in St. Louis, they will have a winning record in the first quarter.
cåblelady Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 His blog has turned into a full fledged Bills lovefest. Not that I'm complaining. Tim Graham ROCKS! Met him before the game yesterday in Lot 1. (Thank you! Lori for inviting him over!)
Heels20X6 Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 "We hate to put everybody on the edge of their seats, but we just try to make good television out there," Bills tackle Langston Walker said. Oh Langston...always a comedian....
Lori Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 Tim Graham ROCKS! Met him before the game yesterday in Lot 1. (Thank you! Lori for inviting him over!) No invitation necessary (although I certainly would have offered one); that was entirely Tim's doing. When I PMed him Saturday evening to let him know about the thread on his Crowell story, he asked where we'd be at before the game and said he'd love to stop by. Thanks for taking the time to do that, Tim, and it was a pleasure to meet you. 'S funny -- when the Bills looked like they were dead in the water and Miami was rolling in Foxborough, I wondered if you were having second thoughts about switching games. Glad they gave you a great story (and us an even better win) after all.

Glad they gave you a great story (and us an even better win) after all. I have to admit I'm still having second thoughts. That game at New England was epic for a lot of reasons, and I do cover the whole division. That the Bills actually won at least justified my trip. Had the Bills lost, ESPN would have been very disppointed it took me off that game. I had a great time before the game. As I mentioned to Lori, I got itchy hanging around there. I would have preferred that setting to the press box. Going inside to work is the decision I really second-guessed yesterday.

We Bills fans have some hygiene problems now and again. I wasn't there so it wasn't me.
