    American Bowl Question...

    Why the hell the Bills are not invited to play on American Bowls?

    Yesterday, Japan hosted the 13th American Bowl and believe me that I'm sick to see other teams coming here and no Buffalo Bills signals...

    IMO this kind of international games might only be possitive to this organization...

    I'm glad. A trip to Japan entails too much wasted travel time and disruption of the training camp schedule.
    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?

        Do the Japanese really appreciate American football, anyway? It would be like me watching Sumo Wrestling, which appears to be a shoving match between big fat guys in diapers.

            Thanks, Phil. Some of us never let the facts get in the way of our opinions.

              Philster, Thanks for the information.
              It seems that only contenders are invited... I hope Bills will be invited as soon as possible.

              On the other hand, despite some damn comments.... I still think American Bowls are not only possitive to this organization... it's also a great opportunity to travel and know other cultures and economies enjoying your favorite team.

              Did anyone know that a total of 215,976 people visited the 2005 World Exposition in Aichi (Japan) on Sunday?

                The Bills also played Minnesota in Berlin. It was either in 1992 or 1993. I can't remember which.
