If you are a true “fan” and not just a casual observer of your team you are always going to be optimistic and hope for the best — and obviously many of those hopes will not be realized. The definitions of fan and fanatic suggest that this exercise is a positive one — being an ardent, uncritical admirer. I often wonder if those who piss and moan about everything and bash players and coaches are actually fans at all, or if criticizing the team simply gives unhappy people an outlet for releasing their pent up frustrations. As a fan I’ve hoped and wished for many good things to happen for the Buffalo Bills. More often than not I’ve wound up disappointed. When you know you can’t control a situation, however, you don’t let it impact your life in negative ways. My most embarrassing Bills opinion ever is that for a moment I thought OJ’s son might have committed the murders and OJ was covering up for him. THAT’s how much of a fan I am. Cheers and Go Bills!

I don’t know, but I sure wished for Frazier to depart. We’ll see how that plays out.

Why do Bills fans have such thin skins?

Kincaid took one step into the locker room, realized McDermott is a cancer, and is actively seeking a trade.

You're not that interesting.

Odd flex. And no I haven't.

So do you live with dad or mom?

This analogy could be spot on…or it could be out in left field.

Poor kid whose parents were Jets fans and named their kid “KeeSean”…has anyone ever seen it spelled that way?

Teams do this literally every year. It’s a “reward” to the players for showing up and buying in.

A psychologist could have a field day with a guy who calls himself @Einstein and consistently boasts of his superior intelligence.

Well look at old Jerry trying to make himself relevant!!!

When I heard it from one source, I ignored it. When I heard it, unsolicited, from a completely different source, I made my own decision that there may be something to it. I'm neither misleading anyone nor "promoting" misinformation. You're free to draw your own conclusions. I have no idea what exactly you are suggesting we are "beyond."

It’s not an allegation, it’s recounting what I’ve been told (no “link”) and my opinion as a result.

Umm, “boss,” local police sweep more under the rug than you’d ever believe… Again, I don’t know whether any of this is true but it came, unsolicited, from two separate sources who don’t know each other but have some tie to local OP police.

Where is Barbara Billingsley when you need her?

I tell ya, situations like this bring out the worst in people…including posters on this forum. I’m not a rumor monger but my gut instinct is that this is a Josh/Diggs personal issue, with a smidge of playoff frustration added in. It’s not contractual, and it’s not about Dorsey. I have heard from two separate sources on different ends of the country that there was a domestic call at Josh’s place the night before the Cinci game that has to do with Josh knocking up a bartender who may or may not have been Stef’s ex. The domestic call was because Josh’s gf found out about it and confronted him. The Diggs blow up at the end of the game was, in effect, “was it worth it?” It will get worked out, even if it means Josh and Stef won’t be on the cover of SI Kids again. Bros before Hos.

Wait, what?

For ***** sake, Diggs! Jesus. I'll totally eat crow on this; thought all of the chatter was nonsense.

Well damn…

Hey @Gugny, those aren’t pillows… And when you say “go on 3” is it one, two, three, GO or is it one, two and GO on three? Yes of course he is there, just as all sane people knew he would.

You new here? It’s called sarcasm, sport.

I guess we'll find out all we need to know about the malcontent Stef Diggs, amirite?

None. Why the !@#$ would I root for an NFC team?

There’s nothing yet on the app, which suggests the dates have not been finalized. I’d expect to see something come out this week…
