McBean Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 (edited) The Bills have gotten me through some rough times in my life. I’ve always looked forward to seeing the red white and blue on Sunday. I’m 28 and I haven’t missed a game since I was 4. Haven’t seen us in the playoffs since I was 9. I can’t help but tear up to think back to all those memories up to this point. I used to think I wouldn’t live to see the day my Bills would be in a playoff game. All the heartbreak and disappointments the past 17 years...I can finally say was WORTH IT. I love all you guys and nobody deserves this more than us. Win or lose next Sunday, I’m a Buffalo Bills fan for life. Thank you Andy Dalton, Sean McDermott, and all the guys who give it their all every Sunday. GO BILLS!

Bills fans in your age bracket amaze me. No appreciable success in your lifetime, and yet you love this team as much as anyone. Hell, I’m 40 and I feel like I’m among the youngest fans that can vividly remember the super bowl runs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PolishPrince Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Same man, I am 30 and have watched every minute of almost every game (maybe miss 1 game a season due to things like a wedding or funeral). This is so bittersweet. I am not expecting them in the Superbowl at all... but getting this far is enough for me (for now) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 36. I have faint memories on the darkness of the mid-80s, and vivid ones of the early 90s. We've waited a very long time for this, Bills fans. Enjoy it, savor every moment.

I'm also 40 and i too remember every Superbowl loss vividly. Until recently it seemed that another Superbowl was only ever going to be a pipe dream. Being just the first year of this rebuild and getting the playoff monkey of our backs it makes me excited about what's to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the ups and downs. If you can't win it all the playoffs aren't much to most teams. But it's surely a huge thing for Kyle and Bills players and fans who weren't around to experience the 90s. I said it elsewhere, and I like McDermott, but have some reservations about him. But I LOVE him for making that call for the Kyle TD and that can go a long way for players giving their all for a coach. Love that to no end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domdab99 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 54 here, and I remember the dark days BEFORE the 90s Super Bowls....the 80s were not great....the 70s were not great...always assumed some success would come back...but this drought was unreal.

schoepfel1 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 The harder the battle, the sweeter the victory. As crazy and at times painful today was, it was one of the greatest days of my life. I can promise you that no New England Patriots fan has ever experienced the joy and satisfaction that I experienced today. when a team like New England experiences such little adversity and hardships as a team, The fans don't even get that excited when the pats scored because it is expected and just so normal to them. The pain over the years makes today just that much sweeter. I can die happy honestly. But ****..... now I'm thinking I might actually see the Lombardi trophy hoisted in Orchard Park in my life time. Anything can happen going forward and I believe that all that pain we went through the past 17 years is gunna make the story that much greater going forward. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
