It is very simple. We have so much invested in this team that many fans can't accept the reality that we have a senile doddering old fool for an owner and he makes senile doddering, foolish decisions. So when someone who is free to be objective points out the obvious, they attack. They'll tell it's because he's not a good writer or that he know football, but it's really just that acknowledging the truth drives home just what a futile exercise it is to be a Bills fan. It is CLASSIC shoot-the-messenger stuff, and it's shame, because the guy does have some connections and some insights [/quote name=mannc' date='Jan 5 2010, 12:18 PM' post='1695324]
True, but that doesn't make him any less right. I really don't understand the hostility toward Sullivan in these parts. He's been calling BS on Ralphie and his boys for the last decade, and I think the only time he's been wrong was when he was caught up in the exuberance of last year's 4-0 mirage.
