BillsPride12

It took me forever to get around to it but I finally just watched that Class Action Park documentary and it was a pretty fun watch. It's crazy to think about how different times were from the 70s through the 90s. You would never see something like that place nowadays

Just out of curiosity what is your seniority? Congrats Btw!

Who would've thought the Buffalo Front Office would be the model other organizations envied....what a time to be alive!

From the reports that are out there it sounds like the Texans are going to really try to poach from the Bills front office

Agreed but we finally have the offense now we dreamed of back when we had good running backs

Nothing against Moss but he has done absolutely nothing to be mentioned in the same sentence with Thurman Thomas

Dude you answered your question with the correct response before you even asked the question Just sit back and enjoy the ride FFS

Where we should be. This team was finally built the right way for once. We are going to be a contender for a long time.

Agreed. I love football but nothing about adding a regular season game to an already long season excites me.

A true classic!

Thanks I am already feeling much better today. It's not something that completely consumes me year round but I'd be lying if I said the leadup to the Holidays aren't tough and then it gets worse on Thanksgiving and reaches it's worst point on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Once the Holidays are over it's a bit easier to move forward. Reading the other replies and stories were actually pretty comforting in a sad way. I appreciate everybody that took the time to reply in this thread, it meant a lot to me!

Beverly Hills Cop is an awesome movie but purely as a comedy Coming to America blows it away.

I was more kidding than being serious

I wonder if he figured playing behind that O-line he knows he's not going to get that big second contract so he couldn't afford to get them nicer presents

Makes me like Josh that much more...which I didn't even realize was possible

A lot of good replies and it sounds like a lot of people can relate to the feelings in their own ways and with their own situations. In a way it is comforting knowing other people are going through the same kind of struggles. I think it's a part of life and changes are bound to happen but I also think the American culture has changed a lot over the years too and that's contributed to family issues. Deaths are always going to be a sad part of life unfortunately but it's always going to be hard to accept. It is always great to have memories even though sometimes they are bitter sweet! Cherish the good ones, make peace with the bad ones and try your best to move on because the old days are never coming back

It was also around 2010 when things started to change for our family. There was a big divorce in the family between my aunt and uncle that had a lot of side elements and created a lot of ripples that began the family getting ripped apart. Meanwhile on my other the side of the family my other Grandmother had Dementia in 2010 and began to fall apart pretty fast. She eventually passed in 2013 and then my grandfather passed away a little after that, and then an Uncle on that side of the family passed away after that pretty much knocking off having any extended family on my Mom's side because there were already family issues with the other two Uncle's that went back years ago. Then you add in the political tension nowadays and Covid and I really don't embellish things when I say it's been a BRUTAL decade. But I agree the Bills have finally been a positive distraction for once!

I can really relate to the two statements I put in bold. For one I have the same feelings of tension and anxiety whenever the Holidays come around and that in itself is so depressing because I grew up absolutely loving the "magic" of Christmas. When your younger you just never see the downfalls coming. The person I feel for the most is my 89 year old Grandmother, as I mentioned in my first post there's been a lot of issues(which I won't get into specific details) that have caused a lot of the siblings on that side of the family to stop talking and no longer gather at the holidays. It just tears her apart and I can feel her pain whenever I am talking to her(on the phone because of course I don't get to actually see her on the holidays because of all the drama). It doesn't seem fair that she has to deal with something like this as her time is winding down. She is last my grandparent I have left and this isn't the way I want to be spending her remaining time with us but here we are. And I felt the same way as for your last statement because in normal years I get really jealous of everybody having their big Christmases with all the extended family and this year with everybody doing the social distancing it felt like an even playing field for once where my Christmas isn't too different from everybody else's but yes a goddamn shame that feeling that way about this year was comforting in a way.

Merry Christmas to all! I know this year in particular isn't a normal Christmas for most people but I feel like the last few years I always deal with a little bit of depression around the holiday season and mostly Christmas. It was a rough decade in my family, lost some grandparents, some issues in the family that have left relatives not speaking to each other, divorces etc...It's just totally changed the family dynamics of my Christmas now. I get really nostalgic for the old Christmases and all the great memories I have. You don't even know how great you have it until it's gone. I'm in my mid 30s and I get things are going to change over time but it still doesn't make it hurt any less. I really had an awesome childhood with a lot of great family members that are no longer around and it's tough thinking those days are never coming back. Can anybody else relate to this or have any similar experiences?

Can't believe we have some folks in here who don't appreciate the original Coming to America. Easily top 5 comedy of all time

I have so much Bills stuff that I specifically let people know not to get me any for Christmas because I am covered already whether it's hats, shirts, jackets, jerseys so I ended up getting some new Buffalo Sabres royal blue gear!

Sounds like there's more to this story than we are going to hear

It reminds me of when we got thumped in KC on MNF during the 91 season. Bruce and somebody else I think were out for that game. We got them in a rematch in the playoffs at Rich and we returned the favor

I know this was just a PR thing but I said it before in another thread and I'll say it again...this team is finding that right balance between staying focused and having fun!

I got a nice framed Photo of the pic in my avatar. It was cool to me because I was way too young to be there and experience it and knowing something like that will never happen again I always thought that was such a cool moment in Bills history. I am also a Memorabilia collector so I thought that was a pretty unique piece of Memorabilia to have. If anybody saw the recent video Marv Levy sent out congratulating Sean McDermott and the Bills on winning the AFC East you can see he also has a framed photo of that pic in the background as well!
