    Now THAT'S Throwback !

    Anybody over 40 yrs of age may like these a little more than the younger fans, I kind of get that feel by reading the posts about the throwbacks.
    I LOVE THEM! Which dates me :) but I wouldn't of changed all these years of being a BILLS fan for nothing.
    They finally went all out with the helmet, I didn't think we'd ever see that again, after that feeble attempt during the 75th ann. year with the red helmet and WHITE standing buffalo(although I bought the mini-helmet)
    My bet, if they go with our history, they'll wear them in SD for the away game, that's who we beat both times for our only CHAMPIONSHIPS!
    The uni's look awesome, they say BUFFALO!
    GO BILLS!!!!

          They rekindle my earliest Bills memories, b'golly!
          Someone said "What's he gonna turn out like?" Ha!
          And someone else said "Never mind!"

            Wait til opening day when we get to watch them PLAY in those uni's!
            It'll be like going back in time.
            Living in CA, I won't be at the opener, I'm flying out for the FISH & Jets games, but I'll also be in San Diego, so I'm hoping that's the away game for the throwbacks. If SD wear their throwbacks, it would be awesome!

              Nice to see some of us older guys like the throwbacks and the memories they bring back.
              Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

                Now that they have brought back all of those warm, fuzzy feelings of pride from my youth with these terrific throwback jerseys, what I'd really love is for the current team to play as well as those championship teams that these jerseys celebrate! That would really make this old guy feel great!!!
                Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.

                  This just might be the year, LBF, for the Bills to star in their own Cinderella story.

                    I love the throwbacks. They remind me of when I first became a Bills fan as a young boy in the early '60s.

                        I'm 23 and I love them. I'd like to see them switch to those uni's permanantly! The white pants with the black spikes really adds to the old-school football feel...

                              I've been around long enough to personally see (and remember) them play in every helmet except with the one with numbers as their logo, and I will gladly be the first to say that my favorite of all time is the current blue-on-blue. That's one bad-ass look, imo.

                              And while the standing buffalo brings back some fantastic nostalgia for me, that was one stiff-ass boring buffalo that would make Al Gore look exciting. The only thing he had going for him was a bigger package. Nah, give me the updated charging goat/buffalo thingy with the blue streak and barely discernable peepee any day.

                              The only thing I would change is that I’d rather the current helmet be white with the dark blue facemask and a big fat strip down the middle. Su-WEET!

                              Oh, and sleeve logos. When the hell are they gonna give me my damned sleeve logos? We’re Buffalo Bills fans, dammit - we’re proud of it and we’re tired of people asking us “so is that a Giants jersey?” Arrrgh!
