You don't seem to understand - the refs are SENT by the football gods. They're our punishment for drafting Walt Patulski #1 overall. It's a 50 year curse, and we're only 49 years in.
On October 31 at 6PM the situation in Buffalo was as follows:
The Bills were 5-2 and a popular favorite to make the Super Bowl. Josh Allen was the leading candidate for MVP
The Sabres were 5-1-1 and although they were clearly punching above their weight, people were looking forward to a fun season with a young and exciting team
On December 6 at 11:30PM:
After the loss to NE, Bills fans have begun to make calculations about whether we can make the playoffs or not
The Sabres are 8-14-3 and can't seem to do anything right. The few fans who show up at home games have booed them off the ice after each of the last three games.
When they make a sequel to "The Four Falls of Buffalo" maybe they'll explain what happened.
There wasn't a football broadcast cliche that went unused by Feely. Next time we get him I'm going to play Feely bingo.
You'd think a kicker like Feely might have commented on the kickoff technique Bass is using sometimes, with only a 3 step kick (like a FG) instead of the usual 10 yard runup. I'd like to know more about it.
How bad is Ryan Bates that nobody is even thinking out loud about putting him in the lineup? And if he's that bad, why is he holding down a spot on the roster? Versatility is overrated.
If it's the Dec 6 game you're going to, you should take your friends to the Sabres game the next night. No better way to love Buffalo sports than a Bills/Sabres doubleheader.
That helps a lot.
But who the hell are Mike, Sam and Will? Or is that MIKE, SAM and WILL?
And if Ferguson is the LONG HIKE, is there also a MEDIUM HIKE?
Also, where are the JILLS?
