Coach Tuesday Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I don't dislike John and I think he means well but most of us would be better off if he put us on ignore. Hard to have rational discussions when people take criticism of a professional team with an abysmal track record as a personal affront. It's been "show me" time for Bills fans for a good ten years now.........they don't need people to stand up for them......they need to stand and fukn deliver goddamit! 100% agree. At a certain point in some fans' lives, the lens through which they see the team seems to solidify and never change. John is gonna stick up for the QB. Big Cat is gonna stick up for the coaches. Scott Law and WEO are going to have bizarre, half-empty takes. 26CB is gonna post his links and blindly defend OBD as our resident Fifth Column. Posters become caricatures and you wonder why they even come here - if you're not open to being convinced of anything, yourself, why do you think you can convince someone else of your viewpoint? Yesterday's loss, from what I can tell because I didn't see it, was a collective faceplant stemming from a complete lack of mental toughness and focus, from the coaches down to the players. There is no excuse and no sugarcoating it; nor is it the end of the world, because it's always possible that the team will get its act together and turn the corner.

A good take here My problem with and I am trying to explain myself so that you understand it (some people I am done trying to explain it to because they just are not listening) I have no problems with complains about this team....again....a fan site...people entitled to their opinion and all that.....I may not agree with you and tell you so but I DONT GET INTO EVERY THREAD AND MAKE IT A THREAD ABOUT THE QB. repeating and repeating and repeating the same information does not make you right. There are rules against this in place to prevent this. They are not being enforced. Still enjoy discussion with all of the posters whether I agree with or not......but Im not going to deal with this crusading and paroting and making everything about this one subject on the board. I want to be able to discuss other aspects of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were getting there but then you changed things up with your weekly game recaps/tributes to Bill in NYC, which are fairly objective and thoughtful.

Jobu Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Ignore function? I have never used it before but I guess today is that day.....anyone? The proper way to apply the ignore function is to make sure your computer is plugged in and powered on. Then with a pair of old school scissors (all metal) cut through the power cord at a point closest to the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenhigh Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Ok, so if nobody is gonna answer him, you go to your profile, select edit profile, ignore preferences, type in MAJBobby, and click save. Post of the week! Why arent you asshats up voting the captain? I don't dislike John and I think he means well but most of us would be better off if he put us on ignore. Hard to have rational discussions when people take criticism of a professional team with an abysmal track record as a personal affront. It's been "show me" time for Bills fans for a good ten years now.........they don't need people to stand up for them......they need to stand and fukn deliver goddamit! If by most of us you mean the circle jerk in your mother's basement attended by Scott, Joe Six, Bills Vet, with Bobby in the pivot slot and you off to the side arrogantly shouting that "everyone is doing it wrong!", then yes I agree.
