Bills to play in Hall of Fame game...

**Uncle Jesse** · 01-31-2009 11:45 AM

Against the Titans. This is pretty cool actually. It's the first game of the preseason and is nationally televised.

The NFL will announce here today the Titans have been selected to play in this year's Pro Football Hall of Fame, according to sources familiar with the situation.
Their opponent in the league's first preseason contest will be the Buffalo Bills. The game is scheduled for Aug. 9 in Canton, Ohio, and will be nationally televised.

That's very cool.

The HOF game they have in Cooperstown is absolutely a joke. It's a question of which major leaguer wants to be there the least. Mark Grace was the biggest asshole that day, beating our Cecil Fielder.

Way to ruin the thread.

Who's getting inducted?

Make it an all-Bills year: Ralph, Tasker, Bruce, Reed

What a weird choice. The Bills have no national appeal whatsoever.

**LALALALALALAFONTAINE** · 01-31-2009 04:41 PM

I'm sure they do. 4 Super Bowl appearances does that.

**calr** · 01-31-2009 04:43 PM

Was that sarcasm? Those four Super Bowl appearances hold no relevance anymore; this isn't the middle '90s. It's almost 20 years since their first SB appearance.

I think there is semi-rotation basis so everybody gets a shot.

Given that, Dil, and the fact that the Bills have two people entering the HOF, I suppose the choice does make sense.

They're guaranteed a large contingent of Bills fans, I guess.

**Ralph Wiggum** · 01-31-2009 04:54 PM

I'll be there. Should be a fun weekend.

Awesome!~

No. Why is LISabres a 49ers fan? I'm sure it has something to do with their Super Bowl appearances.

20 years? That's perfect for kids who saw the Bills 4 times in the Super Bowl become a fan and then reach adulthood.

Trust me, every little thing counts. My nephew is being courted by Sabres, Oilers and Flames fans. The Sabres destroying the Oilers 10-2 had him wearing his Sabres jersey to school the next day.

It made more sense than when I went to Cooperstown (Schmidt and Ashburn got inducted)...they had Detroit and Chicago. Who the fuck cares? I know their players didn't.

It was a great baseball diamond though.
