Found a great article on cnnsi.com by Don Banks, I thought you all might enjoy it. I grew up in Pittsford so it is nice to see so many great things said about the town and team I love till death. I think the word is out that Buffalo is going to be very strong this year, I agree.

I apologize if someone has already referenced this article.

Have a great night.

They put on a great camp at Fisher. I got my invite from the Bills to go up on 8/11. I am taking my brother we always have a great meal and get to talk with the players. In years past my wife talked with Ralph and his wife for half an hour.

Doug- They do indeed, I came home last summer for a visit and was extremely impressed with the camp. Your dinner sounds like fun, who invites you out? My father and his friend went to the first camp at Fisher and ran into Wilson also, said he was very nice and talked with them for a while as well. Good stuff. He is a great owner, I am concerned about what is going to happen to the team when he passes. Apparently his daughters don't want the team (think he would adopt me, I'll take it), what happens then. Does someone take the team to Toronto or LA (God Forbid). Scary!

I get invited to the VIP area for the day because I have seats in a suite. We get there at lunch time and they feed us and show films and such and then we have a private area to watch the afternoon practice. A lot of times the players come into our area before and after the work out. It is a lot of fun and it feels great to get the VIP treatment once in a while.
