I travelled back to the Buffalo area to watch the game at my mother’s home. My childhood buddy and his wife were there with me. When the kick left Norwood’s foot, I jumped in the air and when I saw it going wide, I swung my fist and lost my balance in mid air....and landed directly on my back.
My buddy, his wife and I then went to a neighborhood bar. The bar was full....and it was practically silent. It was as gloomy.
I talked to another buddy a couple weeks later and we were talking about the Norwood miss and how the fans at Niagara Square cheered for him. My friend told me those same fans would be bitter towards Norwood if the Bills didn’t win a SB soon. He wasn’t completely right but I think there are more fans that are bitter about Norwood than we know because you are looked at as a rotten person if you are bitter.
Me? I’m good with Norwood.
