BuffaloWest Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Imagine if The Bills bring back Edwards as Defensive coordinator, don't give Fred the raise he was promised (and he holds out), they let Stevie walk and bring in no significant free agents. Brandon is a doosh, we all know that but he has marketed the team well, but even PT Barnum couldnt sell tickets to that trainwreck. The Bills must make a splash and not just cosmetic ones like T.O.

Â At least bringing back Edwards at DC is better than bringing back Edwards at QB. Â I don't know how people can continue to blame Brandon. At this very moment Brandon is being skewered for using half and half instead of cream by a dude named Jeffrey. He is saying "Sorry, Mr. Littman. I spent some of the cream money on repairs for the teams charter plane. It won't happen again Mr. Littman." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrules Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I agree. Those with season tickets should give them up in dispute. Stop paying your money for a team that does not want to win. Stop spending your money on tailgating and party elsewhere. Â Â Â Now what is the phone number of the Bill's ticket office so I can upgrade my seats.

BuffaloBaumer Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Buying a season ticket defines stupidity! Â Or it defines having a good time with friends and family while carrying on my father's tradition as a season ticket holder since 1960. Hey, I know this team will be garbage as long as Wilson is still breathing but getting out to that lot and soaking it all in for those Sundays is priceless in my book. Good football is just icing on the cake and that is the truth of it for now. Those first 3 home games with the wins and the 70 degree weather was worth the entire 2011 season. Â Now if we can get a meaningful game in December with a foot of snow coming down - one can dream..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toshiero Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Here is how this will go... Â They will fire Edwards, Wanny will be DC Â Ralph will state 'It will take several more years' Although teams are doing the turn around in 2-3. Â Nix will state 'We aren't spending money in FA, we just need to draft better' Â Gailey will state 'We are almost there, just need a few more years' Â Â And Fans will flock to the stadium because they have no lives outside of Buffalo Bills football and fear the team moving. They would rather have a 6 win team each year than them move and Ralph knows it. Â Do you want proof fans would rather have crap than the possibility of them moving? Here ya go... Â Dick Jauron and his GM's at the end of 2 years 14-18 Â Chan and Nix at the end of 2 years 10-22 Â AND DJ/ his GM's had Trent Edwards and JP Losman as their QB's!!! Â Â But hey, you guys keep padding Ralphs pockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That explains the looks I get when in the course of conversation I admit to being a Bills fan. Â I can't wait for the draft. You know that (now) three day period where we draft a player who played at one position, but we "project" him to play (at a higher level) at a totally different position.

CodeMonkey Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Asking a buffalo Bill message board junkie whether he'll buy season ticket next year or not is a lot like asking whether a drunk will buy alcohol again. The real test is whether the majority of ticket holders who do not use this board will buy season tickets next year. They bought them for the past 12 years so there is no reason to think they won't next season as well. Will the number of season ticket holders go down a little, probably. But don't underestimate two things: 1) The power of the "if we don't support the team they will leave" mentality. Better to have a perpetually ****ty team than no team, etc. 2) The power of the tailgate. Many people care far more about the social experience and/or getting shitfaced and acting like a !@#$ in general than if the team wins or loses. Those people will buy tickets as long as there is a team, regardless of record or team quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy seasons anymore because I don't live in Buffalo, but I plan to go up for the Home Opener again. Â Looks like 7 wins to me, just in that bunch. Â Â Yes, but many people said the same thing about the Bills when they were 5-2, thinking we would loose only 1 or two more games. Never understimate the FO ability to do stupid things like (1) not resign SJ; (2) bring back Edwards; (3) not pay Freedie; and (4) not get a real NFL starting caliber QB.

Frit0 Bandit0 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 The Bills are nothing more than inert ingredient in the NFL and historically mediocre with a few good years.

If the Bills let Johnson walk and don't make any serious moves to improve, I'm not going to financially support a team that doesn't spend the necessary finances to get better. By getting seasons again, I'd feel as if I'm just enabling the Bills to continue with this losing culture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
