Yikes III, Sabres!

Hello all 1,355 Bills fans!

Ouch, that 82 yard kickoff return by Terrence McGee which ended with him being brought down 4 yards from the end zone is basically a good representation of the 2005 Buffalo Bills season so far. The good news is that we’ve lost all three games to NFC teams and the Jets & Patriots (who got spanked) both lost yesterday. The Bills are still in the thick of the race for AFC East title.

However, Bills Daily (www.BillsDaily.com) is reporting that a fight broke out yesterday between some of the Bills at halftime, including Moulds spitting on his teammate. GM Tom Donahoe has stated that this team is not playing as a team, and I think that’s become evident. Let’s wait and see how Mularkey approaches this problem.

NYCBBB raffled off the autographed London Fletcher jersey and raised $878 for the victims of Katrina. I know some people are mailing in checks, so if you’d like to add to this total please let me know and I’ll hold off sending the check in for a few days. Thanks to all of you that donated, we’ll have the information on the winner of the jersey in Thursday’s email.

As always, we’d love to hear your positive and negative feedback (including a member telling NYCBBB to go to Hell on our message board!) about the bars. I was in Calico Jacks and had an amazing time, and it appeared everybody else did as well (despite the outcome of the game.) Please either send me an email or post on our message board.

Sabres vs. Islanders
The Sabres will be opening the season against the NY Islanders this Wednesday at 7pm. We’re going to televise the game at Calico Jack’s and run some sort of a drink special throughout. If you’d like to be added to the Sabres mailing list, please email Kevin Smith at SMITHKE@PIRNIE.COM

Also, if you’ve requested tickets for the Sabres/Rangers game please arrange payment ASAP with Kevin.

Sahlen’s
We’ve gone through 50 pounds of Sahlen hot dogs and are now sold out! If anybody would be able to go to the Sahlen’s distributor in Buffalo this weekend and bring back more, please let me know!

Is it just me, or do Mondays seem longer after a Bills loss? I’m fired up to SQUISH THE FISH on Sunday though!!!
