Takeo Spikes came up to Rochester, NY and signed autographs at a car dealship called Vanderstyne. I got to ask him two questions. First, I asked him if he has ever found a necklace that fit him and he just laughed. Second, I told him to knock some sense into the coaches because they dont appear to know what they are doing. He just said that he was surprised I felt that way coming off of a win. And I said that "talented players like yourself got us the win, I still hate GW and KG." Once again, he laughed

Nice guy overall though. Now I have a signed Spikes Jersey and Bobblehead

Dude, that is sweet! Was it really crowded? How much did it cost?

Sometimes I can't believe that Spikes is a Bill. It just seems too good to be true.

No man it was free all the way. I only had to wait in line for 90 minutes too. The lone was real long but he got through them really fast. The bobblehead is the best part. He didn't even know they had one of him. I got TKO and 51 written on it.

Vanderstynes are good friends of mine, the owner Jerry is a great guy. His son plays football and baseball with my son. Takeo bought his Envoy from them, while he waited for it to come in he used the owners sons vehicle, when he gave it back to the son he signed the head rest, and a jersey for the kid!

Next time you go to Buffalo for a game, stay in the Four Points Sheraton (Buffalo Airport) across the street from the Walden Galleria Mall. The players stay there the night before the game. I can't guarantee talking to any of them, but you'll get to see them up close and personal. :) That's where I stay when I go to Buffalo.

Boy do I wish I woulda lived in Rochester on that day :D

Ive met Moulds once at a Destroyers game and he signed my jersey and Bills hat. It was pretty sweet. Also if you live in the Cheektowaga area, The Sam's Club on Union is where alot of players go. My friend works there and has met Lawyer Milloy and Willis McGahee...Both were getting Sams Club memberships.
