  1. Someone should check the Niagara Gazette for a headline written in crayon that reads something like "With Perfection Within Reach, Bills Two Missed Extra-points Leave Embarrassing and Indelible Stain on Record Books".
  2. Really? These are Boston sports fans... the end of the Patriots*** run was always going to look like this. A significant percentage of their fanbase comprises some of the most obnoxious, least sports savvy, fickle, delusional, front-running fans on the planet. They have a well earned reputation as an all or nothing fan base; their teams are either the best of all time and they can't understand why everyone doesn't root for them, or they sawwwck and the fairweathers fall off the bandwagon in droves.
  3. This argument is nonsense. If you have an issue with the act itself and it bothers you, fine, that's legitimate. Trying to insinuate that it will ruin the perception of the game for 250 million people who don't care enough about football, or sports in general, to have otherwise known about the game is absurd. If it wasn't for the act itself, those that don't care enough to look at a sports website may not have ever even known the game existed.
  4. I'm certainly not morally outraged by it, nor do I think it changes the perception of Bills fans by the outside football watching community. I do, however, think that this gesture would be better served as a Brady taunt than a general Pats*** taunt. I propose that instead of a Bills-Pats*** tradition this be adopted by all non-Bucs NFL fans and that Brady be pelted with them in all visiting stadiums from this day forward until his retirement... and if people chose to throw them at him after he retires, that's cool too (would be EPIC to see someone toss a replica of the original smiling gem at him during his inevitable HOF induction speech).

  6. I get the Fitz love, but if I’m Beane I don’t want the curse of the Fitzpatrick anywhere near my starting QB.
  7. Tua’s entitled to spend his free time as he sees fit. If he’d rather improve his handicap than his skills as a QB, who am I to judge. Wasn’t Billy Joe Hobert a scratch golfer? His career turned out ok. Couldn’t be happier that Flores going scorched earth on his way out the door basically negates any return in a trade and forces the Dolphins to ride it out with him or cut bait.
  8. Without looking it up, I'm guessing it should have been the Tampa game...
  9. I was at #2 on the list. I bought my family tickets for Christmas and refused to let them puss out. We were drinking Jameson and hot cocoa from a Thermos out of Styrofoam cups and it was turning into a slushy within minutes. My right foot went so numb that the feeling didn't come back until I had walked the mile+ to the car, and then it burned so bad I wanted it to go away again. It was several years before the feeling was relatively normal again. I'm still not sure why this is one of the Bills memories I pride myself on... 🤷‍♀️
  10. Is that what he calls his hot pink SPANX nowadays?
  11. Don't let Cornelius Bennett find out... Mitchell might go from "Mr." to "B word to" Biscuit.
  12. He's featured pretty prominently in this video and both he and Josh compare themselves to the other: https://www.buffalobills.com/video/josh-allen-and-buffalo-a-perfect-match
  13. I can't find it, but I swear there was a quote from Steve Young where he basically said Allen runs like he would have if he was built like Allen is.
  14. The real intrigue is where does Luke Russert's mom fit in with all of this?
  15. Fine. Be that way. I supposed next you'll be telling me that Beasely wasn't yelling at McDermott and that Levy won't die if he leads the charge.
  16. Michael Stahan was the last player to see him when he flew past him in the Blue Origin *****. He said he looks happy up there, like he's really found his calling.
  17. Hopefully they put the 4-5 seed matchup on MNF. It's clearly a disadvantage for the winning team that ends up playing in it, so they should foist that turd on the lowest ranked division winner.
  18. It’s an optical illusion owing to the fact his head isn’t on straight.
  19. If it's a good game, I think the color guy is superfluous. While there is the occasional salient point to be made, if they're good, at the end of the game my enjoyment would be no more or less with or without them. A bad color guy, however, can make a good game annoying to watch and can make a bad game almost unwatchable. I enjoy the Manning-cast, but only if I'm not really interested in the game. They're entertaining, but it's like a football talk show with a football game as the backdrop. If it's a bad game or one I'm not that invested in, their broadcast is what I'm watching. If it's a good game that I'm really interested in I have to switch to the regular broadcast. For me it's akin to trying to watch a Bills game with friends at a football party. My limited attention span keeps me getting distracted by all of the conversations going on around me and I miss a bunch of the action.
  20. When I die, I want to go peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather... ...not screaming in terror, like the passengers in his car.
  21. I think the Wonderlic should be repurposed by owners for screening GM and front office candidates, and to a lesser extent HC's. Might have saved the Bills some of the time they lost with Buddy Nix, Doug Whaley, Russ Brandon and Rex Ryan.
  22. In the matter of Rodgers versus Arkush… or is it Arkush vs Rodgers… I agree.
  23. On a related note, commentators will no longer be allowed to point out that Ryan Fitzpatrick went to Harvard.
