YoloinOhio Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 (edited) I love the trolling and trash talking as much as anyone, but if the team doesn't back it up on the field this is all going to look really silly.they haven't trash talked. They have said they are a great team and they don't like them. The trolling is on behalf of the entire world and they more than deserve it.We were destined for that as soon as the game was over last Sunday and the fans chanted 'We want Brady*"yeah the fans did that. But the team has done nothing but say how great they are. They are going to say they expect to win too and give it everything they have - what else are they going to say? That they don't think the have a chance but they are sure going to try? That's not even true, they know they have a chance.

FLFan Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I think it's rather cheesy and classless for the team store to be selling these, but to each his own. "Lighten up, Francis" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 If I lived in Boston area, I would go to any sign related to the Patriots and put *'s on them. The exit for the Patriots stadium, asterisk sign. The sign for the the Patriots entrance, asterisk sign. Anything that mentions the Patriots or association to them, I'd asterisk it and post it to Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Hammersticks Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 no offense, but you are quite easily offended. It's good humor. And sends a message to the NFL that Brady's cheating is not forgotten. Oh yeah? Give me some examples of me getting easily offended. Don't worry...I'll wait. I even stated in my previous post IN THIS THREAD that the whole thing didn't offend or bother me. If you don't want to read people's opinions, get off public message boards/forums.

BillsFan130 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 This is funny and all but I don't know how I feel about the bills giving New England big bulletin board material Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I think it's rather cheesy and classless for the team store to be selling these, but to each his own. Isn't this just something the store sells all the time? Do they sell any items that need inflating (balls, balloons, etc)? Seems like a legit item the store would always sell. Maybe they just optimized the product placement in the store this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And anything like this that they see, they brought on themselves and will deal with it every where they go except Gillette.

If there is a bulletin board, it has been full for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think at the stadium store, but if they normally do...I like my crow medium rare. In any event they definitely "optimized the product placement" as the tweet boasts "front and center in the Bills Store this week" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any event they definitely "optimized the product placement" as the tweet boasts "front and center in the Bills Store this week" I'm getting the idea this is an item normally sold in the store. I also think they don't typically stock this many, or place them front and center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Well, demand for those should peak this weekend. There might be a run on them. Good market practice - maximize sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"bulletin board" was a figure of speech, and I understand they brought it upon themselves and I definitely see the comedy of it, but I for one don't think it's a good idea to poke the bear especially when we have got our arses handed to us the last 12 years by the patriots.

Just my opinionsure - if a coach or team member started talking about deflate gate that's one thing. None of them have, they won't even answer questions about it. The closest was Eric Wood a few weeks ago who just said "whatever the league decides, blah blah". This was a retail employee who moved air pumps from the back up front for the weekend as a joke. I don't see that as "poking the bear" but if the Pats* do, they have thin skin. It has nothing to do with the Bills record against them and everything to do with their team's cheating. They will see much worse everywhere they go, and I don't believe any team in the league beats them regularly or has a winning record against them over the last 15.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I think it's rather cheesy and classless for the team store to be selling these, but to each his own. I think it's rather stupid. Like the time I wanted to plant cherry tomatoes in the park down the street until my friend set me right, laughing: "teenage boys. red fruit that goes SPLAT! when you sling it. What can go wrong?" Bring Back Fergy nailed it: "Let's see.....open glass of beer....spray pump. Nahhhhh, nothing could go wrong." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make good points, can't argue with much of that but my main point is I wish the bills didn't provide New England with any more motivation than there already is, whether it is a player or an employee part of the bills organization Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 It makes fun of a situation. It doesn't denigrate any human beings. I'm okay with this and thought it was funny. Yep I agree! Some need to get a sense of humor, and not be so damned serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of it will matter at 1pm Sunday when the teams line up across from each other. It's just fun and games throughout the week. GO Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
