Freddy you have become my nemesis.
I’m going to spend all day Thursday (BOTH bosses are out that day) coming up with four guys you have never heard of, and the clues are about to get much more obscure, be prepared for clues like – “I once caught a pass for the Bills” and thats it!

First time I got them all though
My prior entries were all flawed – so in my eyes I was due.
I really started following the Bills in 1966 and would still say my favorite teams were the Chuck Knox led squads of the early 1980’s. To put a perspective on my addiction, Charlie Romes is my favorite all time Bill – Mario Clark’s other CB!
Loved Robert James – too bad he blew out his knee or he would be in Canton – a man that played with boys! And Steve Freeman gave the Kent Hull post game interview (accent and all) before Kent got here – both Mississippi boys.
Just remember how upset my dad was when Gogolak left – belive he had a brother Charlie that kicked too!

Not to make you feel old or anything but...
My mom was 11 in 1966. A lot of these guys I’m picking are guys that I’ve never heard of or know very little about.
I’m gonna go real old school next week, so dust off the memory banks, you’re gonna need them.

You always make us feel old...
Freddyjj – was it Charlie Romes or Mario Clark that returned a int for a TD early in the ‘81 wild card game against the Jets? That play set the tone for the rest of the day if I remember correctly.

I feel old sometimes too
Between Brian, K, Jri111, and myself, I’m the old guy.

By the way...
The trivia the last few weeks has been tougher – nice work. I’ll admit, I had to use the internet a little for some help…
I have some ideas for some players if you’d like, but don’t want to post them here. You want me to throw them over to you in an email?

just don’t say anything about trying to sell me knock-off Rolexs, or Viagra in the subject. I get a ton of junk mail and might just over look it other wise.

I'd never do that...
Because at my age I need the knock off Rolexs to get the girls to use the Viagra I have. I’m keeping it all man- not selling a thing.
But I do have info about working at home, a letter from a rich arab who needs to deposit money into my bank account, loan consolidation, and of course, porn…

I always accept porn

Just saw this as back from business day
Believe the Bills picked off 3 or 4 passes from rRchard Todd that day – the biggest was Bill Simpson’s in the end zone to stop a last gasp Jets drive.
Chaz – as Charles Romes was called – actually returned a fumble on the opening Kickoff for a TD that stunned the Shea Stadium Crowd.
Bills were up by 3 TDs early and barely hung on to win.
