Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 In the spirit of allowing the over-emotional gameday thread posters a chance to recant their in-game foolishness, I thought It might be a good idea to resurrect an ancient TSW tradition. This thread is for you to walk back your hottest of takes, be it a "Put in barkley" or "Josh Peterman" take, whatever that may be. Now's your chance to atone for foolishness, Bills fans. Have at it. As for me...I repent for my underestimating Motor Singletary's playmaking capability. Mea Culpa. 8 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 My mea culpa, I didn’t venture into that Hell hole. It’s never been my intention to jump into a GDT and start bootin’ jag offs, but it becomes necessary, even though we all understand the Jekyll & Hyde, frenetic emotions during the 16 hours per year the Bills take over our psyche. So I’ll just wait for reports. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddy KGB Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I got nothing. Shaq Lawson’s clutch plays had me thinking we were gonna come back eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan1959 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 No mea culpa here - but I like the resurrection of this. I thought it would be a tough game to win and it was. I make it a point not to post anything until the game is over and I have a chance to evaluate it in total. If I underestimated anything, it was the level of idocy people can reach when emotional. You would think nothing would surprise me after years of being on this forum; however, each game day thread, some posters rise to the challenge.... 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 For letting the thought cross my mind that I needed to start composing an "I guess you were right @ScottLaw about the Jets" post around halftime yesterday, when I should've just rested secure in the knowledge that no, nothing to be concerned about here whatsoever! Mea Culpa. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true, particularly during games when things might not be going quite right. It’s amazng how some think the second half of games will play out exactly like the first. It never happens that way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for me...I repent for my underestimating Motor Singletary's playmaking capability. Mea Culpa. YOU. You are Mr. Positive in the game-day thread! I did not expect the offense to generate any points after going down 16-0. I thought the D would continue to play well, but didn't see any positive plays coming from Allen. However, Allen wore out Mosley by continually throwing the ball to him, and alas, he couldn't handle it. Mosely goes out, Bills come back.

He audibled quite a bit in the first few series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Positive Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I gave up on the team and season at halftime. I didn't post anything in the GDT, but I sure as heck said a lot to my TV before turning it off and leaving the house. The turnovers just drove me nuts, especially the one that got called back to the unrelated defensive holding penalty. How can you let a safety bait you into that throw? I'm still mad about it. FWIW, I dislike social media and message board hot takes because Internet culture doesn't allow you to walk back anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
