Today was the 22nd Jim Kelly Celeb golf tourny for charity. It was held in Batavia New York at Terry Hills CC and I have to say, this might have been one of the best experiences of my life. JFreeman was there also, and we were like kids. For you Sabres fans, I got the honor of driving around Rick Martin of the French connection for the day. He was one of the nicest, most down to earth guys. A hell of a golfer I might add as well. Ill post some pictures here, and Im sorry about the quality, they were taken from my phone.

Me and Sabres great Rick Martin

I was hanging out with Stroud most of the day, and I gotta say, he is a gentle nice guy. Lets just hope that changes on the field. He says hes excited to be in Buffalo and really thinks this will be a good season. He also said the rookies are coming along great. There was a lot more celebs and players there, but I didnt want to go around bothering everyone. All in all, it was an amazing day that ill remember for the rest of my life!

1- I've played golf with Rick Martin on more than one occasion. That man hits (or at least used to) hit the living bejesus out of the golf ball.

2- You should've shanked a shot right at Dan Marino's earlobe.


Good times, man. Congrats

Actually, Marino almost took me out! I was ahead of the group and heard him yell fore right when a ball zipped about 5 feet in front of me at head level. Maybe it was for the isotoner ball busting I gave him.

Bruce looks good. i bet he can still get to the QB's better than our DE's.

He was awesome. It was best ball scramble and his ball was the one chosen 75% of time. He made some clutch putts also. I got to see a guy hit a hole in one in his group, first time ive ever witnessed one.
