FINALLY!

Maybe NFL Commish Roger Goodell's endorsement clinched it for RALPH WILSON but FINALLY the only BILLS Owner is elected to the Hall Of Fame! Bills long-time Superstar #78 BRUCE SMITH also elected in his first year of eligibility, Ralph was asked about going into the HALL in the same class as Bruce he said "to be inducted with Bruce Smith, I knew after I saw him play for 15 years he won so many games for us making that tackle in the last minute...to be sitting up here with him, let me shake your hand."



ANDRE REED, sadly didn't make the cut...maybe next year #83 (we're all pulling for you)!

UB Men on National TV!

If you didn't hear...UB MEN'S BASKETBALL (on a Tear in the MAC recently) will take on TOLEDO in Alumni Arena Saturday at NOON and will be broadcast on ESPN2! The second part of the Doubleheader will pit Western Michigan vs. The UB Women at 2pm.

Brad to play Steve?

The HEAVY Hollywood rumor is that BRAD PITT will portray STEVE McQUEEN in an upcoming movie about the legendary actor's life! No details yet, but we'll keep you posted (I'd vote YEA for it)!

Local boy makes GOOD in HOLLYWOOD!

Nice to see old friend CRAIG SCIME make it big last Saturday on Ashton Kutcher's new TV show on CBS "GAME SHOW IN MY HEAD." Craig, who you might remember from a few years ago on Channel 29's U's PLACE, made a cool $40 GRAND on the show hosted by FEAR FACTOR's Joe Rogan. If you missed it, Craig was "on the street" getting instructions via an earpiece from Joe to perform some wacky stunts with people passing by earning cash for each successful stunt performed. Craig completed each stunt he was required to perform to pocket the cash, and it was nice to see his wife Krystal in the audience to cheer him on. We'll keep you posted on the further exploits of our former U's Place host while he's working hard in LA-LA Land.

I'd still take Buffalo's 2008 Winter Classic

The NHL's 2009 Winter Classic is in the books, and for my money I liked OUR Classic better!

Not only did OUR Classic go to a SHOOT OUT, but you can't beat our SNOW GLOBE effect and of course MORE FANS (and closer to the action too)! Don't get me wrong, still an exciting game in Chicago but about the only thing better than last year was the ICE...but Buffalo Ice (both in the AUD and The ARENA) has never been been much to write home about.

By the way...GO UB BULLS in the International Bowl in Toronto Saturday (NOON/ESPN2)!
