A lot of Bills fans were palpably curious, especially on Thursday, that the Bills might sign the ex-con from Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary.   Now, I was among those were curious, and some of those might have even seen Adam Schefter’s RT (re-tweet) from a Rochester twitterer reporting Vick was at RGH (Rochester General Hospital).  It was [...]

How in the world did I miss this?
The event begins Aug. 14. Stroud will provide the participants with a brief survival class in the Hornepayne high school gym, toss them a copy of his book SURVIVE!, and set them loose for two nights and the better part of three days in the wilderness with no [...]

The Buffalo News digs up some dirt on the cabbie who Kane and his cousin rolled (allegedly).
No drivers license, a couple DIWI’s in his past.  No wonder his attorney has advised him to disappear.
It won’t change much in the eyes of the public as punching a 62-year-old for pretty much any reason is not cool.  [...]

Something about Pat Kane beating up a 62-year-old man doesn’t feel quite right.
But regardless of the “feel,” and irrespective of what comes to light that led to the instance, there is no changing the fact that it happened and that what happened is pretty much indefensible in the court of public opinion.
I’ll be the first [...]

Does this mean that the Sabres are now committed to winning?  Seems to me that the Sabres have only added to their reputation of not being committed to winning since Mike Grier walked out the door three years ago with unkind things to say about the Buffalo organization.
And yet, Mike Grier is a Sabre again.  [...]

Here is part two of my interview with Sean McCormick of Football Outsiders on the 2009 Buffalo Bills.  A special thanks to Shawn F. for his contributions in developing a few questions for Sean to answer.  Enjoy.
BB: Who is the better every down running back: Marshawn Lynch or Fred Jackson?  Is a stat like DYAR [...]

The 700 block of Main Street is now open again.  While this has some people perturbed about 2 way traffic also returning to Tupper (link) many are rejoicing.
Back on July 18th a unique and AWESOME band (literally) of revelers marched to the beat of a different tune.  The celebratory tune was belted out by three [...]

Over the winter, Anthony Bourdain and “No Reservations” came to Buffalo.  This was one of the stops on the “Rust Belt”.
Here are the videos.  I’m not sure if they’ll be there forever, but here they are.  They are broken up into several parts.
Part 1: Baltimore (some scenes of Buffalo) [...]

While Hot Buffalo has written a true story about the company that Mickey Kearns keeps.  Today at 5:30 Kearns will be having a Q&A at one of our favorite Buffalo Pizza joints Campieri’s.
Even if some Hot Buffalo authors are seen as “Anti-Kearns”, everyone here encourages you to use your own judgment and get involved in [...]

It had been a few weeks since I went on a Friday night ride with Bug and the gang so after a day of busting up a concrete floor I took 20 minute nap, pumped up my tires, oiled my chain, replaced my LED light batteries, adjusted my brakes, grabbed a 12 pack and wheeled off! There is no better way to kick off a weekend than a friday night bike ride!

When I let Chris know that we were doing the Eternal Flame hike he was sure to go out of his way and call it a ‘trek’, which really scared me to say the least. I brought 12 quarts of water, full first aid kit, whistle, GPS, satelitte radio, food for 2 weeks and of course my harmonica just in case.

After checking out Amherst State Park, we were still hungry for adventure and Wolf suggested to go to Glen Falls, a place shorty up the road where he takes his babes to make out with. Wolf is cool like that. Anyhow, we headed down Mill St. for a short bike ride and this is what [...]
