Summer here. Summer gone. on Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

Ah, Summer, we barely knew ya. As we turn the calendar over to September and make out last minute preparations to send our kids to school, we do so with a heavy heart, knowing that the calendar might say there’s still three weeks left in Summer, but, really, it’s over. Earlier this year, I said, [...]

Emmys Barely Beat Tape-Delayed Bills on Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

Image via Wikipedia This is what I’m thinking: * And the winner in Sunday’s head-to-head match-up between the Buffalo Bills on Channel 7 and the Emmy Awards on Channel 2 is…  The Emmys.  But not by much, especially when you consider the Emmys were live and the Bills’ 35-20 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals Saturday [...]

Senecas + Albany = Drama on Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

The state and the Senecas are arguing and sniping over taxing cigarettes and casino revenues. Under the 2001 agreement with the state allowing the Senecas to operate class III casinos, a cut of the take from slot machines is to be paid to the state. If the state were to legalize gambling and allow non-Indians [...]

UB2020 Dead, Simpson Out on Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

Government and public spending has, can, and should play a role in moving Buffalo forward – out of its dead industrial past and into a knowledge-based future.

The Bills Look Great, But… on Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

There is a certain buzz around the Buffalo Bills for the first time this offseason. While the Bills generally manage to do enough in the offseason to generate excitement among the most fiercely loyal of NFL fans, it has taken a while to set in for the 2010 season. This season, it took some good old-fashioned results on the field, not some big name signing, to create a buzz in Buffalo about their Bills. While it is nice to have something to get excited about, let’s try and maintain our realism, and see this team as it really is.

Maybin Makes Most Of An Opportunity on Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

Since he’s entered the National Football League, Aaron Maybin has been an easy target.  Unfair as it may be that he’s so harshly judged less than a game into his second NFL regular season, Maybin could be the poster child for all the erroneous…
