Woof

You all saw the egg the Bills laid on Thursday night. Well it didn’t do the Southtowns Clowns any favors either. In fact, the two garbage time touchdowns nearly doubled their point total as it stood halfway through the fourth quarter.


--- Losers keep their mouths shut ---

I can’t even rag on the Gohawks because the Clowns were absolutely pathetic. The only dumb thing he did was leave Sebastian Janikowski in while the Raiders have him placed on IR. Even with quiet days from Jimmy Graham, DeSean Jackson, and Devonta Freeman, he still managed to bludgeon Southtowns.


--- Clownin’ around ---

Ugh.

More turnovers than an Arby’s commercial.

More meaningless scoring than a game of solitaire.

The Jets D shut down the ground game like a January blizzard shuts down the Thruway in Buffalo.

The only receiver who did anything noteworthy wound up getting hurt in the first game he was actually impactful in.

--- Reaction in a gif ---

[ERROR 716: Extension not functioning correctly. Please consult an offensive coordinator to resolve this issue.]

--- Next time out ---

The Bills face a daunting task when the 6-2 New Orleans pay a visit to New Era Field. Buffalo desperately needs a win to keep pace with New England and Jacksonville.

Southtowns, meanwhile, will have its first repeat opponent. Richers Ravens will take on the Clowns for the first time since Week Two. In that outing, the Ravens clobbered Southtowns, 104-39.4 and it probably should have been worse. Lucky for Noah Richer, now is his chance. Drew Brees and Mark Ingram will be doing double damage for both New Orleans and Richers.


--- Prediction ---

Southtowns keeps it competitive, and Buffalo stays unbeaten in Orchard Park. Richers Ravens take it, though, 95-70.



Editor's Note: Matt Birt is a former Buffalo Bills employee and possibly a future one as well.

The Story Behind the Hilarious Marshawn Lynch Applebee’s Clip

Image
A video from 2007 featuring then-rookie running back Marshawn Lynch has recently been making the rounds on social media. The clip then exploded when ESPN tweeted it out on Wednesday, allowing many followers to enjoy its humour for the first time. While the video itself is funny enough, there’s a heavy backstory to it that many who weren’t Bills fans at the time might not know. - - -  Willis McGahee was drafted by the Bills in 2003, and from 2004-2006 was the team’s starting running back.   After the 2006 season ended, McGahee sat down for an interview with Penthouse, in which he seemed to suggest the team should move to Canada. The comments did not sit well with fans, who for nearly two decades had to deal with relocation rumours surrounding the team. They despised him for what he said; they burnt posters of him, wrote songs for their YouTube channels, sold “Willis is Trash” t-shirts, and even chipped in for billboards. About two months after (and perhaps because of) the Penthouse cha

Forgot About Buffalo: What’s the inspiration?

Image
Some of you may look at our logo and wonder why it looks vaguely familiar. Many more may have no idea what it is or why we chose it. Here's its origin:    In January 2000, Roswell Park Cancer Institute announced they would be teaming up with the Burchfield-Penney Art Center to put on a fundraiser unique to Western New York. The two organizations received over 450 bids from local artists who intended to turn the plain, life-size statues of buffalo into distinctive works of art. The completed pieces of those chosen would then be placed all over the city for the duration of the summer, and in October of that year, would be auctioned off with the proceeds benefiting both parties.  The driving force behind the project’s formulation was Patty Capstraw Wilkins. Wilkins had been diagnosed with stage four colon cancer in 1998, and received treatment at Roswell Park. Inspired by Chicago’s Cows On Parade in 1999, Wilkins envisioned hordes of buffalo roaming around Western New York in a si

Old Team Tuesday: The Buffalo Gamblers

Image
Old Team Tuesday is a weekly feature taking a look at former teams that have gone by the wayside. This week’s edition takes an extensive look at a team loaded with historic greats that tried to make summer lacrosse stick in Buffalo. ********************************************** Loganberry, the drink locals in Western New York proudly claim as their own, actually originated in Canada. Summers weren’t complete without a trip over the border to Crystal Beach, until the 101-year-old park was closed down in 1989. But on the flipside, is there something Buffalonians took from Canada that neither side of the border wants to lay claim to anymore? There certainly is: The Gamblers. Not the kind you’ll find crowding the Fallsview Casino or Seneca Niagara. The lacrosse team that represented the region briefly yet brilliantly in the late 1990s. --- Canadian heritage --- The Ontario Lacrosse Association’s top senior circuit, Major Series Lacrosse, had undergone some hefty
