ComradeKayAdams Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Bills fans are getting soft these days. I was ready to tear down your goal posts for you after your successful scrimmage with the Panthers in August. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playoffs? Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I lived through the glory years, and vividly remember the joy of watching the goal posts taken down in Rich Stadium. Great moments. Some of you want more class, or are worried about it being an embarrassment... newsflash: our fans are taking flying leaps into tables, and as much as it is total stupidity, the world has come to appreciate all of it, even when laughing at it. And although not all of us can (or want to) relate to Bills Mafia , pretty sure we’ve proven how much our football team means to us. I say do it. Rip ‘em down if it means playoff berth. Make the headlines! Be Bills fans. Most teams in the NFL would never dare to have this thought. That’s why I love being a fan of the Bills. Have some fun, people! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the fun celebrations as much as the next guy, but I REALLY like the juxtaposition these days of the guy just jogging off the field like "yea, thats what I SHOULD do".

Tearing down goal posts is so old school … we've moved on to tables. The Bills should have about 100 ready to roll out to the logo. Trust me, that would go viral.

However part of another upright got to the visitor upper deck where I was sitting and there was almost an attempt to toss it over the stadium. That would have been a bad move! Likely would have wiped out a few fans that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
