but, but, but...they have favre [/sarcasm] (sorry, couldn't resist)

Wow. Awesome responses guys. Thank you for that. I really want to expound upon my original post, but I'm not in a proper state of mind to do so at the moment. At any rate, I would love to hear what others think as well. One thing I have to say, is that I really enjoy the meaningful input from posters on this board. Very thought out and very substantial. Thanks again and I will add more of my thoughts tomorrow.

We are only two games into the season with the third coming very quickly. I've been biting my nails since the first game. Don't get me wrong, I love what I've seen so far. But with so much disappointment coupled with the hype that has surrounded previous years and teams, I'm still waiting for it all to go bad. I'm not expecting it, I'm very happy with the team. I see a lot of potential and a lot of improvement from years past. I have a lot of hope, but I think that I'm so used to making myself not get too excited so quickly, that I'm trying to keep an even keel within myself. For instance, usually the first game of the year, for any team, both teams play hard and is really not indicative of who they will become for the season because they've had so long to work on their respective game plans and have no tape of what the opponent has done in previous games for the new season. We know that first hand. I suppose my questions is, for anyone that what I'm saying makes sense to, what are your thoughts on the season so far and how many games do we need to win before you "accept" this team as a legitimate playoff contender? (remember the year when we opened the season trouncing the pats* and then beating the Jags) I think we are beyond that. I think that if we have a good showing and a solid win over Joakland, we are for real. Just my thoughts and my question to you guys. Thanks for reading.

OK, I'm worried.

No doubt about it, this is still a pretty good hawks team we beat today. No way can this achievement be taken away from the Bills. A very good team we beat today. (yes, I said it twice).

Sorry to hear about your loss. The passing of a loved one is something we can all relate to. Prayers for you and yours.

Absolutely hilarious! Sorry, I just had to give you props for this one.

Looks very functional, and I'm sure you put a good amount of work into it, but I think it looks like that typical crappy local news website. You know, the one in everyone's home town. It just doesn't seem to have a "fan site" feel to it. Hard to explain the last part, but definitely reminds me of the local news type site. I don't like the font for "Two Bills Drive". Other fonts look okay though. Perhaps the way the colors are presented is what makes me say what I say? Not sure. Not sure if you have the time, but you should try experimenting with a couple of different designs if you are going to change it. I actually like the regular design. You should make an option available to let people use the old design or the new design and see which one gets more hits over time. That will tell you if the new design is effective, maybe. I don't mean to sound harsh, but that's just a few quick things I see from the .png.

I'll try: Sept. 9 DENVER BRONCOS Win Sept. 16 @ Pittsburgh Steelers Loss Sept. 23 @ New England Patriots Loss Sept. 30 NEW YORK JETS Win Oct. 8 DALLAS COWBOYS Win Oct. 21 BALTIMORE RAVENS Loss Oct. 28 @ New York Jets Loss Nov. 4 CINCINNATI BENGALS Loss Nov. 11 @ Miami Dolphins Loss Nov. 18 NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS Win Nov. 25 @ Jacksonville Jaguars Loss Dec. 2 @ Washington Redskins Win Dec. 9 MIAMI DOLPHINS Win Dec. 16 @ Cleveland Browns Win Dec. 23 NEW YORK GIANTS Win Dec. 30 @ Philadelphia Eagles Win

how bout: "Who's your daddy"

Post of the day! I agree.

what 5 yards???? did you see the play???

I don't know. That was just !@#$ed up. No field goal attempt?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, a non sports related bad weekend. Bad night at a bar/club, saw a bad fight in the parking lot on the way out, some idiot who drove me and my friends to the bar starting trouble with one of the dudes from said fight, he also started trouble with one of the friends in our group, he was drunk and we did not want him to drive us home. I told him I was pulling his card and he was not driving us home, I was not going to let him endanger me, my cousin and another friend. He ended up driving himself home and the rest of us took a cab. Just a bad, bad night last night. There is nothing like having your life in jepordy, but at least we did our best to do the right thing. I was hoping that the Bills would have won today and make everything right with the universe again, but alas... Tough loss. I'm just going to let this loss go and try not to get too worked up. I hope you guys on the board are ok, I know it's tough.

As a fan it mattered to me. I kept saying to myself, please don't give up, don't give them the shut out. It was obvious that we were not going to win, but that touchdown made ME as a fan feel a little better. I know it is somewhat a moot point, but good on the Bills for not giving up and getting that score. It is just something they had to do. BTW, did you see the Jets score, ah that also made me feel a little better

OMG!!! That was absolutely hillarious! Seriously, I love that type of humor. I'm going to use that in the future.

Well, no sex here but there was booze and rock n roll. It's 5:51 EST and I'm going to bed. This is a good and bad thing. At least I've set the DVR record the Bills game. Go Bills. I think this will be a tough one but we will win. GO BILLS! And have a great day for the posters that are ready to go to the game.

We had our back against the wall. Even though the result was an L, I feel that we really won this game. Yeah, we f'ed up. But it feels like the world is against us (refs). I saw a lot of heart. I saw some newness in the form of inexperience. I saw hope and rawness and signs of maturity. I saw BALLS (4th down try). I like. WE ARE THE BILLS AND THE BILLS FANS! WE ARE HERE TO TAKE ON THE WORLD! SAY WHAT YOU WILL, BUT WE HAVE HEART! AS A TEAM AND AS FANS! Tough loss. But we knew what to expect. F THE REFS! We are getting there and that's what counts. It's going to be an exciting season to say the least...

Ok, what about Moorman getting tackled twice? Why was that not a call?

Thank you very much. Works great!

Well, all I have to say is DF inspired a lot of people and helps many people with his charity. He IS a part of football history and we were lucky to have him as a Bill. It is all behind us now and in the end for better or worse, it adds character to the Bills. That sounded awefully mushy so read it again and look at from a history angle.

I kind of already knew that we were not playoff bound and the point of the post was sort of an in your face to the coach. You know, like 'Coach eat your words. When you are fired simply look in the mirror.' MM pretty much sealed the seaon with that statement and I think there will be repercussions in some way shape or form. Either players not playing, getting fired... I'm a little surprised that MM pulled that knowing the meaning of such a statement, he kind of...well...bagged himself.

Oh, C'mon Adam, you would enjoy me asking MM that question more than seeing me escorted out. C'mon you big lug...you know it...visualize...that's it...ah. Let it out and see it and chuckle. It would be cool
