Fish are Squished / Roadtrip!!
Hi Everyone,
"It's All Over, Clap Clap Clapclapclap!" was the cheer going up from
Little Buffalo with about 8 minutes left in the game yesterday. With an
unbelievable performance by the defense, the Bills thoroughly squished the
Fish on their home field in the searing heat. Gone were the memories of
last years 4th quarter collapse, this team clearly got stronger and more
confident as the game went on. Truth be told, the moment I truly knew the
game was over was when the Calico Jacks crowd when from booing Mike
Mularkey to cheering him. As Phil points out in his excellent article,
Mularkey did more for the Bills this week than he had the previous two
seasons.
Since he is a much better writer than I am, I will leave the recap to Phil
and his weekly feature "This Week at Calico Jack's…"

Also, Phil is planning to do a future column about Bills fans' superstitions,
and would like to get your input.
Once again, for those of you that attended yesterday, we need to hear your
feedback. Had a great time? Terrible time? Let us know!
This Sunday will mark our 3rd trip to the Motherland to watch the Bills
stomp the Jets. Like last year, the tailgate is going to be held in a
private lot off of 20A/Big Tree Road. We’ll be located next to Kenny
Johnson’s Pinto tailgate in Lot 1 - Pole 5 on the other side of the
tree line. The festivities officially start at 8am, but the private lot
we're in opens before the main lot we'll most likely be there even earlier
than that! We’ll have 2 kegs of Blue Light and some special coolers
with Bloody Marys and Mimosas which were a huge hit at our last tailgate
so get there early if you want some. We’re going to charge $5 per
cup to cover the cost of the beer and drinks. We’ll also have plenty
of grill space, so feel free to bring some food to throw on there.
Here’s a map, we’ll be in the white area directly to the right
of Kenny’s tailgate (its pole 5, NOT 6,) so if you find him,
you’ll find us!

As a reminder, this game will mark Kenny's 200th straight Bills game and
our friend Michelle Girardi will be there with some new friends from NFL
Films to check out the scene. Don't miss it! Also, if you’re
planning on tailgating with us, please let me know by replying to this
email.
Both bars WILL be showing the game next week, so if you can't make it up
to Buffalo be sure to come out and support the team with your fellow fans!
Despite the stellar play of the Bills this week you didn't really think
I'd miss an opportunity to highlight the Sabres, did you? The team plays
it's first preseason game (already? Yup!) against the Leafs in Toronto and
here's hoping they follow the Bills lead and destroy their main rival.
This year we have started up a new email for the Sabres fans, so if you
are interested please head to our homepage and sign up or just email and
let me know.
Finally, I hear that Culpepper got sacked again on his way to get coffee
this morning. Poor guy.
