Homey D. Clown Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Open Letter to russ brandon, You have finally made the team so un-watchable that moving the team to another city looks appealing!!! The product on the field has gotten so abysmal that the thought of playing a meaningless game in Jacksonville, where I actually have free tickets to go see, make my stomach hurt. Your plan of fielding a garbage product that forces attendance to drop and making the team's viability in WNY seem overwhelming to a highly populated area has worked to a T. I would applaud you in standing fashion, but it seems you have tried to make the product so crappy that even the Toronto populous, sports writers, and elected officials don't want this pile of hapless crap. Your constant efforts have defied all statistical odds, where it is actually statistically harder to suck for this long, than to occasionally be "sort-of" good. At this point I'm dreaming of a 7-9 season, and you've made that seem like a success.... congrats again on that one. Ohh and another golf clap for bringing back the miserable 70's in Blue Pants fashion. Nothing screams of piss-poor, decades long suffering like the classic, blunder filled 70's digs. Finally, an honorable mention goes to the stadium lease with lots of "out Clauses" and little trap door gems written into it that will make for an easy and clean break... well played, and you thought you could slip that one by the fans.... well you did on most of them. Signed, Your biggest fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Vent away but the NFL today is about the QB / head coach combination. Nothing else matters. Nothing. The probability of hitting it right is the only statistic that matters and I'd say there are far more examples of failure or sheer unexpected coincidence than a clear selection, marriage and success path. In fact the only case where I can see a team that selected the head coach who then went and got "his" franchise QB in a draft and rode it to success is Flacco/Harbaugh. Lucks situation may have a shot at this as well. Almost ever other case is dumb luck, a surprise in a free agent pick up who outperformed as compared to his pror team, or late pick or a guy drafted as depth who just made it happened. My point here is this will be the only thing that matters in the end and we won't know until late next season what's there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jauronimo Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 If there's anything this board needs, its more open letters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PearlHowardman Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Your letter is entirely-completely misdirected. It should go to Russ Brandon's boss, Buffalo Bills owner Ralph Wilson. Russ Brandon is only doing what Ralph Wilson wants him to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Bills Backer Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Nothing is going to change with this clown in charge. He may be a good guy but doesn't have a clue about how to run an organization. At this point I'd just prefer we had a new owner and they either decided to keep the team in Buffalo and fire Brandon and the rest of the clowns, or moved and then I'd be done with this team.

Perhaps if the open letter were simply addressed to the Bills front office in general, or even, To Whom It May Concern, we could affect some real change?

cage Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Wow! I usually hate these kinds of "doom" threads, but you pretty much hit the nail on the head.... unfortunately, well said! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Yes....after all these years of totally unwatchable football, it's this game--the 2nd game all season that the team looked unprepared and out-classed, that is the tipping point. Thanks for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsInMaine Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Absolutely superb my friend. Who knew a relatively meaningless game against the lowly Bucs would push me to the edge. I have lost nearly all interest in the Bills. Finally my pain and agony of being a diehard fan have come to an end! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsBytheBay Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I have super cheap USO tickets. But I'm going to have to drink so much during the game, I'm going to do it from the house...and maybe root for the Jags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorkington Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 As long as they make a profit, they won't listen to a single thing the fans want. And they certainly won't care about putting a winning product on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stony Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Did you even bother to read the original post? Read every word of it. You're very upset. I'm assuming the game yesterday put you over the proverbial tipping point. You're blaming Russ for everything you perceive to be wrong/bad about the Bills. You seem to infer some conspiracies are afoot. If Russ is responsible for everything, then he probably told EJ to throw all the picks. Right?

Had you read every word you wouldn't question the losing, blue pants, Toronto, Russ, lease provision theory. Its water tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardinalScotts Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I don't have much of a problem with Russ I like the direction of the team, not a week to week basis but how they are handling things. My only problem with Brandon is when he brings up ticket sales and refuses to mention the quality of product on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
