When the Bills brought out Van Miller and gave him the keys to his new car and plane tickets, they should have pulled the sheet off and presented his name on the Wall of Fame. As the only play by play man of the Bills for 37 years, he should have been made a memeber right then and there!

Nah... do it again next season- when it's warmer, and all the greats can be there -
He was not the only one...Al Meltzer was the play by play man for 7 years...and didn't do that bad of a job. Van didn't even call OJs 2003 season.Originally posted by kgun12

I thought Rick Azar called the Billls games in the mid 1970's, including many of the OJ YearsComment

Al Meltzer, (now sports director in a station in Philly, channel 10 I think) Ed Rutkowski, and Rick Azar, from 1971-78. I always thought those three were just as good as Van, maybe better. They basically did the Bills while he was doing the Braves.
I met Meltzer while working in Philly in 1989. He told me he loved the fans and the city, but he just couldn't handle the Buffalo winters.Comment

LOL! Not quite. It was a Buick Rendezvous I believe. The only SUVs that are American made I would call luxury would be a Lincoln Aviator/navigator and the Cadillac escalade/(what ever that new thing is with the sliding top)
Any other luxury SUVs are made by BMW, Lexis, Mercedes Benz, and VW.
OH YEAH and that monster of one that Porsche makes!

All I know is Van didn't get a pimpin ride like Rude has.
There's not a stone in my heart I've left unturned
Not a piece of my soul that I ain't searched
The only answer I found for all this hurt
Is there ain't not answer here on earth
