We only have 17 days left to vote for our 50th Anniversary All Star Team. It's time to amp up this event with a contest of our own and have some fun, all in good spirit. Which message board will have more participants VOTE for the correct team of players who will end up being selected?

I'm going to go around to the message boards that I know and ask each board to post a thread and see how many members from each board can correctly pick the 50th anniversary team.

Remember, the more times you vote, the more likely YOUR team will be selected, so vote often. Let's see which message board has more participants that can pick the exact team who is selected in the end.

This is serious business, folks http://boards.buffalobills.com/images/smilies/smile.gif Remember, you and your favorite message board's cred and rep is on the line here.

VOTE FIRST (and often) and post your team here. Remember this is for bragging rights and I'm curious which message board will post more winning selections.

Here's my completed team. GAME ON.

HC: Lou Saban. Marv will probably be the sentimental pick but I'm sticking with Lou because he WON two championships with less overall talent.

QB: Jim Kelly (no brainer)

OL: Kent Hull, Joe DeLamiellure, House Ballard, Reggie McKenzie, Stew Barber.

RB: Cookie Gilchrist. Again, OJ or Thurman will probably win but if you ever saw Cookie play, you'd know why he has my vote.

WR: Elbert Dubenion, Andre Reed, Eric Moulds

TE: Ernie Warlick (by a mile)

ST: Steve Tasker (no brainer)

K: Steve Christie

P: Brian Moorman

DL: Bruce Smith, Fred Smerlas, Tom Sestak

LB: Mike Stratton, Daryl Talley, Cornelius Bennett, Jim Haslett

CB: Butch Byrd, Robert James

S: George Saimes, Tony Greene


VOTE and then post your team here. I dare ya. I'm going to have to vote a LOT because some of the younger members probably won't vote for some of the older players I've picked.

Proper kudos and bragging rights will go to the message board that wins.


Now get voting because you have to VOTE to make it count!

Nobody's posted a team yet here? I had the hardest time picking the lines. The biggest miss I see on the BBMB is that a lot of people are missing Kent Hull. How can you NOT vote for Kent Hull? He belongs in the HOF IMO.

Replace Stew Barber with Will Wolford, and get Billy Shaw in there.

Barber wasn't much.

The Bills have sucked for so long that I'm in no mood to care about voting. This organization don't care about winning, why should I care about them?

My dad always said that if Jim Kelly was QB in the Houston Comeback the Comeback would have never happened...He said Kelly never had the patience.

Robert James was much better than either Nate Odoms or Butch Byrd.

OJ, Robert James and Bruce Smith were the best at their positions, I think, that this team has ever had.

I have always thought that Stew Barber is among the most overrated Bills of all time.

I think your dad was right.

HOwever, I dont think the Bills woulda been down by 32 points to begin with.

Why not? The Bills got blown out a few times with Kelly at QB during those years. Especially SuperBowls and Nationally televised games.
