Sully on Sports

Mary Wilson, the wife of Bills owner Ralph Wilson, said Friday that her husband is doing well and is hoping to attend the team's home opener in September.

"He's doing really well," she said. "He's great. Today is Friday, so he's going to work out with his trainer. Our goal is Opening Day. Ralph wants to make the home opener."

I'm pushing the chat back a half hour today (to 1:30) because of an interview that came up at the last minute. I promise to go at least an hour. Talk to you then.

Friday's show will include plenty of talk about the Sabres, the Masters and more. Guests include golfer Dudley Hart and former Niagara and new Hofstra coach Joe Mihalich.

 "You want to hear a good Mike Rice story?"

I'm sure that sentence has been uttered a few times over the last week or so. I heard it from a former Niagara University athletic employee, who was working on Monteagle Ridge when Rice served one year as an assistant coach under Jack Armstrong in 1997-98.

Rice, as you might have heard (and how funny was the Melissa McCarthy skit on SNL), was fired as Rutgers head men's basketball coach after ESPN aired footage of him verbally and physically abusing players during practice. The athletic director, who had seen the video months before, also lost his job.
