Monday Morning Cheerleader: Liz of the Buffalo Bills

Unless you hail from Buffalo or Cleveland — or you're a big fan of The T.O. Show — odds are you didn't exactly circle the 1-3 Bills against the 0-4 Browns on your must-see-TV schedule. Be glad you didn't. In a game so offensively ugly it'd make a Pop Warner coach cringe, Browns quarterback Derek Anderson completed two of 17 passes and the Bills rang up nine false starts before return man Roscoe Parrish muffed a late punt, and the game, in a 6-3 loss. But out of the chaos emerges the lovely Liz, a second-year Bills cheerleader, to make sense of things. The aspiring child psychologist, ripping snowboarder, and lifetime Bills fan talked T.O., the no-huddle offense, and whether coach Dick Jauron deserves his spot on the hot seat.

Buffalo Jill of The Week Liz

This year's series of Jill of The Week features leads off with one of our second year vets. Liz spent her rookie season as a Buffalo Jills Ambassador and while she enjoyed the experience, she decided to make a change for 2009. This year, she spends gamedays as a dancer on Omarlla's line between Lisa and Omarlla. It shouldn't be a surprise that she made the transition as she did dance all through her school years. Her future plans include clinical psychology but isn't gonna shut the door on a little bit of modeling if the opportunity presents itself after she not only got a few shots on Maxim.com but even spent some time appearing as a model for the Buffalo Bills' online store this spring. See her perform at the 1st rd of Jills dance cuts at http://s15.photobucket.com/albums/a375/buffalojills2005/2009/1st%20cuts/?action=view&current=084.flv and read more about Liz at http://buffalojills.net/roster/elizabeth.php

Buffalo Jill of The Week Liz

This week, we take a look at one of the rookie members of the Jills Ambassador Squad as our Jill of The Week. Liz is one of those girls whose dancing ability was not a detriment to joining the Ambassador Squad as opposed to the dance squad. Many Jills Ambassadors simply don't have as much time to commit to practice as the dancers. Ambassadors typically meet once every other week while the dancers are practicing twice a week, every week. Liz has been dancing since grade school and keeps active in the winter with snowboarding as well. Since she wants to learn to surf one day, snowboarding is a great start although she obviously wouldn't be as bundled up on a surfboard, something beach-goers those days would certainly appreciate. Too bad for them that this statuesque brunette is attached. Beyond that, Liz is aiming to become another doctor with a Jills pedigree like current Dr Amanda K and future Dr Holly. Unlike her squadmates, however, Liz is planning on dealing with the mental and emotional aspects and become a licensed clinical psychologist. You can read more about Liz at http://buffalojills.net/bios/elizabeth.html and don't forget to check out her 97Rock photo album at http://www.97rock.com/Article.asp?id=1091842&spid=21994

Taste of Buffalo 2008

The 25th Annual Taste of Buffalo kicked off Saturday with 56 restaurants participating this year and the day was hot in more ways than one. The 88 degree temperature and all the fantastic foods were just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. It was also a great place to see a number of local musical acts, all of which are new to the Taste this year and see friends you haven't seen in months. But the hottest part of all was getting to see plenty of beautiful women, the hottest of which could be seen right in front of City Hall and the 97Rock booth. I'm talking, of course, about the First Ladies of Buffalo, the Buffalo Jills. The Jills were on hand handing out Bills schedules and posing for pictures with fans from noon to 4 and rookies and vet alike seemed to pick up a lot of new fans.

Here's a few pictures from the day that feature Jills rookies Liz, Kristin M, and Shana (who put in 4 hours under the sun) as well as popular veteran Amanda F in a few scenes from the day.

If you missed Day 1 of the Taste, don't fret. Just make sure you make it to Day 2 and sample some of the great Buffalo foods, listen to some local bands, and of course, meet some of our beautiful Buffalo Jills.

Also, whether or not you make the Taste this weekend, don't forget that the Jills Golf Tournament is coming up on July 21st at Fox Valley Country Club in Lancaster, NY. The $125 fee includes a full round of golf, cart usage, lunch and dinner, the chance to win lots of prizes, entertainment, and of course, the chance to meet all the 2008-09 Buffalo Jills! Just visit http://www.buffalojills.net/contact.html to order your tickets.

Buffalo Jills Photos of The Week

This week's pictures come from this year's Buffalo Jills Congratulatory Party. This was an event, started a few years ago, meant to introduce the new Jills to the public, and allow the public to not only meet the new squad members, but see the returning vets as well. It usually takes place at the end of April or beginning of May so don't be afraid to set aside a few Saturday nights for next spring. But before we think about next year, let's take a look at a few pics from this year's event.
The 1st pic features rookies Kristin M and Brandi. All I can say about Kristin so far is that she's kind of a quiet and reserved girl, at least at first. Brandi should be no stranger to anyone who's been to Jills events, or at least looking at pictures from them, the last few years. She's had some friends on the squad, like Omarlla, and even gave it a shot trying out a few years back. Thankfully, she never gave up and made the squad this year.

The 2nd pic features Liz, Kelly, Alison, Danielle, and Sarah. Kelly and Danielle need no introduction as they're the captains of the Jills Ambassador Squad. Kelly's been with the squad since 2002 and Danielle is in her first season as Kelly's co-captain and her 3rd year with the Jills. Rookie Liz is a psych major and Alison is one of her closest friends. Rookie Sarah is one of our two Canadians on the squad and the two Toronto games are basically going to be in her backyard.

Of course, you won't have to wait until football season to meet these, and other, rookies. July 12th and 13th is the Annual Taste of Buffalo festival in Niagara Square in downtown Buffalo and you'll find mostly rookies at the 97Rock, Bills, and 103.3 The Edge booths at the event both days. And July 21st at Fox Valley Country Club is a time you can meet not only the entire group of rookies, but all the vets as well at the 6th Annual Buffalo Jills Golf Tournament. So if you're a golfer, or just trying to be, that's the date to take a vacation day.
