El Guapo

No doubt, winning the AFCCG would be poetic for the organization, but I have so many fond memories in that stadium that will surpass that win. I’m not saying it wouldn’t be great. I’m just saying there are so many opening weekends, midseason, and freezing games that I have enjoyed so much. I am just glad my wife and I have been part of it.

Look, guys. We pick late in the first round. Most teams only have 12 to 17 with first round grades. That means we’re always picking second round talent. That’s the cost of success on the field. So to expect a day one starter with our first pick is really stretch . And that goes throughout the draft. We’re picking late because of our success on the field. That means 30th in the second round, 30th in the third round and so on. Beane’s draft, every year, is handicapped from the start. I know that sucks, but that’s the fact of life for the Buffalo Bills. We could have worse situations in the draft.

They won’t sell season to out-of-area individuals. I live in Alabama, and my wife and I had season tickets for over a decade. I lost many of my travel privileges, like air miles and hotel points, and it became very expensive to travel to a game. We canceled the tickets in 2013. The year after Josh got drafted, I called to see what I can get as far as season tickets go. The rep told me they would not sell out of area season tickets. Even though they had my history, they would not allow me to buy them. I have not inquired if I bought PSLs if I could buy them now.

Disinterested? Never. I’ve had NFL ticket since it started. I never miss a game. The rules when I got married were Sundays or football days. Do not schedule anything on a Sunday after 11 AM. My wife became an NFL fan and a huge buffalo fan. And Sundays were our day together. We had seasons from Bledsoe‘s first year until 2012 when my job changed and I lost all the travel perks which made it affordable to go. We still try to make it to a game or two every year. We have great friends from Canada that had seasons next to us. Good times. when things got boring, during the drought years, we came up with a silly game, called scoring shots. We’d pick a shot for the week, and every time the bills scored we do a shot. Well, there were a lot of games where we only did two shots. So we added turnover shots. If the ball was taken from the opposing team boom another shot. Well that didn’t work very well either. We added kickoff shots. So the beginning of the game and the halftime kick became another shot. That was about where we were OK with it. We were not getting hammered, and it just made those miserable games a little more fun. Well, then, Josh Allen came along. All of a sudden, we were drunk by halftime, and comatose by the end of the game. We had to stop playing the game. The kids still play it. Although, they’re not kids all of them are in their 20s and 30s. i’m just too old for that *****. 🤪🤪

As Josh stands up from the bench and says, “Oh yeah? Hold my beer!”

My first game. We were at the goal line the Jets were running to. The stadium was electric prior to kick. Hell the crowd was electric for two seconds after the kick, but I have never seen the stadium, anywhere, go from so electric to numb in five seconds. Before they even reach the end zone, the aisles were full of people walking out. My wife and I cannot believe the feeling of jubilation going to one of disappointment so fast. It was a great game to be at, but we did not like the outcome.

We loved our seasons in 116, row 5. Right on the goal line. Yeah, it was low seats and we watched the jumbo tron half the game,but when a play happened in our side of the endzone it was more electric than you can imagine. Now that we’re in our fifties, give me club seats. 😜

Driving to Atlanta for the first half. I’ll find a bar to watch the Bills’ choice. Friday afternoon, I will watch from Carlo & Charlie’s Bills Backers bar in San Pedro, Belize.

Atlanta would be the most neutral site. Close to same distance from Buffalo and Kansas City. Also not an easy drive for Cincinnati.

It would be too pricey for me. I would have to take my wife, son and nephew. That puts walk-in at $20,000, not even taking into account ancillaries. Probably end up over $30k. Not to mention how upset my daughter-in-law and my nephew’s wife would be for leaving them out (one is a Bills fan but married into it; the other is a Chargers fan). No, we’ve already decided that if Buffalo is in it, we will go somewhere together (all 6 of us) to watch the game. We could go to the Caribbean for half that to watch the game. And I would be with the Bills fans that mean the most to me.

I think he’s going to have to have surgery on the elbow after the season. He is not pushing the ball down the field like he usually does. He will if he has to, but he looks hesitant to do it. I hope I’m wrong, but something seems off.

White on white is the best look.

This is the perfect place to ask this question. I just don’t understand why there is any negativity here. 🤷‍♂️

Are you looking past the Pack to the Jets?
