Vegas line for the game...

The Buffalo Bills are one of the original AFL teams and joined the NFL through the merger. Ralph Wilson is the only owner in their History.

The Bills have played in four consecutive Super Bowls, losing all four. They lost Super Bowl XXV to the Giants, XXVI to the Redskins. They also lost XXVII and XXVIII to the Cowboys, the 3rd and 4th Super Bowl victories in Cowboys franchise History.

The Bills have 6 members in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The most famous (infamous) member of this fraternity is O.J. Simpson who was accused, but not convicted, of the murders of his ex-wife and her friend. Many people remember O.J.'s infamous Police chase in the White Ford Bronco with friend Al Cowlings at the wheel. Few knew, or remember, that Cowlings was a teammate of O.J.'s at USC and with the Bills. O.J. was drafted #1 overall in 1969, Cowlings was the Bills 1st pick of 1970.

The Bills have one former Head Coach in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Marv Levy, the architect of their Super Bowl contender teams. The Bills are currently coached by Dick Jauron who is the 14th Head Coach in their History.

I'd love to go, I'm in NY and could just drive up, but it's too late to get tickets without paying through the nose, I'm sure.

Do you need a Passport when traveling to Buffalo?

That young QB is going to have a panic attack this week when he see's tape on us. We are going to knock him out. He will not finish game.

I was at that game in 1981.

Charlie Waters got poked in the eye that game.

That was the last time I was in Texas Stadium....until yesterday.

That would be sooo sweet to see. Doubtful many Bills fans would even understand it though...I'd repress those memories if I were a Bills fan.
