Estro Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Today I decided to show up to the game with a brown paper bag from Wegmanns with eye hole cut outs, tears and a frown. To my surprise I wasn't the only one, there was another group of 4-5 wearing them in my section. It's gotten that ugly. The atmosphere at the games this year has been downright pathetic and for good reason. What an embarrassment this franchise has become. Hopefully better days are in store, but I just don't see this trainwreck getting back on track within the next couple of years, we are a dreadful football team.

Estro Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 Bout time. Yea, hopefully fans will start to show their discontent more and more with this team as the season progresses. I won't be there, the 15 hour roundtrip from southern New Jersey to watch this mess has become tiring. I was treated like a celebrity wearing that thing today. Everybody seems to agree the Bills have become near unwatchable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit the guy sitting in front of him right in the back of the head. !@#$ing hilarous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing wrong with being positive and keeping hope, but I think you overrate Ralph's ability to successfully head this franchise. If we had a leader I could believe in than I could deal with the down times, but when it appears to be a never ending cycle of ineptitude it's tough. The NFL has a salary cap so every franchise is on an equal playing field, so technically speaking, the Bills "should" have a 6 in 16 (37.5% chance)of making the playoffs each season. To successfully avoind that 37.5% for 11 straight years is the sign of true ineptitude and the only constant has been Ralph. I'm with you, but not until Ralph is no longer leading the franchise.

Everybody seems to agree the Bills have become near unwatchable. Some guys were wearing their paper bags down below me and it ended up with a near brawl in my section. The paper bag guys got kicked out I believe. I have no issue with people wanting to show their distaste for the bills, by all means, but this kinda back fired with Bills fans getting into it.

Oddly enough, I found myself wearing one while watching the recorded game last night in my office...just in case the neighbors looked in.... In all sincerity, this team has bottomed out, but will remain there for another couple of years... Clearly devoid of talent - everyone not showing will do nothing to fix it soon...

JPS Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 The only thing more embarrassing than that defense is a grown man wearing a bag on his head. Well, at least the Bills finally know their fans are frustrated. Without bags, it was hard to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
