SF Bills Fan

Same- I thought it seemed like a good story at the time. I had no idea what was ahead. Also, now we know the Pats likely cheated in that game so I take back any goodr thoughts I had for them and replace it with white hot hatred.

I've been in the club seats a few times. It is nice to have no lines for anything. The only thing for me is that you feel removed from the action. I tend to walk up to the bar and then end up grabbing a beer and just watching the TVs inside. Same happens when I go to hockey games in a box.

This is what happens after years of crap teams. It's not even about the football anymore- just the zany partying.

Easy money. As I like to say- it takes money to take money.

So incredibly lame. I recall turning it off in order to preserve my IQ.

The article in Sports Illustrated several years back was terrific- very sad article, though. "All who knew him remember him in different ways. The clan, as a family man. The football players, as a tough jock. Then there are those who knew Kalsu on that terrible hill. They have the most painful and poignant memories of him. Fotias has trouble talking about Kalsu, his voice soft and filled with sorrow. So does Renner. He walked over to Kalsu's body lying outside the bunker and peered into his motionless face. He would see that face for years. Now, however, "I can't see the face anymore," Renner says. "I can see his silhouette. I can't see a lot of their faces, only their silhouettes. Renner is having trouble getting out the words. They come in a whisper. "I've thought of him every Memorial Day," he says. "In my heart, I pay homage to him. And Johnson. They are all very important." He closes his eyes and bows his head and quietly weeps."

My vote would be Sanders but the Lions did have some success in the early 90's going to the NFC championship game and making the playoffs a few times after that.

The thing about Sully is people hate him because he says negative things about the Bills, but the Bills are pretty much junk and have been for a while. It's just the truth and people don't want to hear it.

At least it's not 14 kids with 14 different women

I think they are talking about wins and playoffs, not support and attendance and Buffalo and San Diego are the top major cities for team futility as of recent. I think there ESPN magazine had an article on this too. Cleveland would be tops but the Cavs championship helped them.

I had no problem with him. 16 years is a long run- no shame for Solomon.

did someone say Bay Area shack? Here you go: http://blog.sfgate.com/ontheblock/2015/09/21/this-is-what-350000-buys-you-in-san-franciscos-crazy-housing-market/

Great move to hold on to it. I know exactly where that is. Id sell now- give your daughter a nice chunk of change and have them move to another city and pay cash for a big house.

Wise- I've been here 23 years and we are looking to get out. It's just too damn expensive and not worth it. I'd advise anyone thinking of moving here not to. I think there was a stat recently that said 40% of people are actively looking to leave the Bay Area and it is mainly because affordability. I could buy a house, but simply refuse to lay down 1.5 million for a modest home in a sub par neighborhood. If I pay 1.5 million for a home, it is going to be a 1.5 million home, not a shoe box next to an on ramp with a homeless tent city down the street.

I like it. That condo out here in the Bay Area would be 5-6 million easily.

I was at that NE game in 1981. My dad and my friend and his dad all left and heard a cheer from the lot and all wondered what happened

I agree

I think NFL teams make far more money than what is publicly known or believed. This is 35 million is likely a tiny amount for them.

Cue Ball

I've seen Cunningham mentioned by others. I'll agree on that.

Yep and then pick a guy that is not high profile but fits their system perfectly. Then he will be awesome for them until they get rid of him and the Browns get him and wonder why he is not the All Pro they thought they were getting.

My heart physically hurts hearing of this

There is no way they will make the Canadian fans travel further. The new stadium will either be in OP whether a total rebuild across from the old one or an putting 100s of millions into New Era or a new one downtown. I think some of the recent revelations that the Pegula's are buying land at a premium downtown points to the latter.

I forgot there are now direct flights from Buffalo to LA now. Still waiting on the direct San Francisco to Buffalo

I have Redzone and even during live broadcasts, it seems like they will show other teams that are in the redzone over the Bills when they are in the redzone. Last year, there was one day when they were showing another game and the teams were at mid-field while the Bills were in the redzone. Then they showed a quick replay of the Bills touchdown and went back to the other game. I was so pissed I nearly called and cancelled. I get that the Bills are not a top team, but redzone is supposed to be pretty unbiased. At least show a split screen.
