    Who's your favorite Bills writer?

    Is there a writer who covers the Bills that seems to write things in a way that connects with you more than others? Mine would be Carucci. Has done a solid job with his character stories this winter/spring.

    Felser was the only one who ever wrote with constructive criticism.

    I like Vic Carruci & Joe Buscaglia.

    Mike Rodak sucks.

    Re: Who's your favorite Bills writer?

    Felser will always be my favorite. Used to listen to him for years on the radio as well.

    As we were waiting for our luggage at the Buffalo airport after the Atlanta Super Bowl, my friend I went to the Super Bowl with & I saw Larry Felser also waiting for his luggage from a different flight home. Larry was friendly & polite with us but while my friend wanted to continue the conversation Larry was more interested in talking with a couple of women who were also fans. Pretty funny, given the choice to talk with us & a couple of women, I don't know too many guys who would have wanted to talk with us.

    Felser is my all time favorite, I like what Carucci and Buscaglia bring to the table.

    Current favorite though is Tim Graham. He taps a great network of contacts and throws you their thoughts. I think he's the younger Carucci and wiser Buscaglia and he expresses himself well.

    On Radio, Sal Cap is awesome. I wish he had the afternoon slot instead of Shemp and Bullfrog.
