Dave in Avon Lake now Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 That was a terrific video to watch. It's amazing how much emotion was tied into this. I'm also a Pirates fan who endured more than 20 years of losing seasons so when they finally broke through in 2015 and made the playoffs as well was a similar emotion. Can't wait for Sabres to do the same however unlikely it seems right now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Brought me right back to watching that Bengals finish after our win and running laps around the house yelling "IT'S OVER!!!!!!!!" uncontrollably. I'll never forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanSD Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 I don't think I'll ever forget watching the end of the Bengals-Ravens game after they switched over from the Dolphins game. I totally cried and it was arguably the greatest sports day of my life. (The comeback was probably bigger in the grand scheme of things, but I didn't fully appreciate it at the time the same way I did with breaking the drought). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To root for the Bills and the Buccos at the same time during overlapping extreme droughts was an exercise in grim endurance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loyal2dagame Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 I was at that game in Miami on New Year's Eve. I had the live stream of the Cin/Bal game on my phone as we exited the stadium. My stream must have been like 30 seconds ahead because I watched Dalton throw that TD and started running around the lot screaming how we made the playoffs like i just won the Powerball while other post game tailgating Bills fans were clueless. Once they saw the play, they understood....... and also began to act the fool. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he makes it past the next round…his voice is good but not great. So far the Korean Quartet have been the best singers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo03 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I always hated when people tried to take something away from it by saying "we made the playoffs but in my opinion the drought is still on" simply because we needed help to get in.

Making the playoffs for the first time in nearly 2 decades was emotionally more impactful than getting to the AFC Championship last year to me. The way things unfolded were magical. The only thing that would obviously beat that moment is winning the Super Bowl. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comebackkid Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I was pretty happy watching the end of the game,. Like when you get manly giggles. But then to watch Kyle in the locker room after and imagine what he was feeling and everything he had been through to reach that part, that was hard.

SoCal Deek Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 It was New Years Eve. Went out to dinner with my wife after the game and can remember sitting there smiling from ear to ear the entire time. A HUGE weight lifted off the shoulders of every Bills fan. (I also remember not giving a rats rip what happened in the playoff game….I think I was still smiling.) 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipkid Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 I watched here in SC with a buddy from the southern tier and his son who he inexplicable allowed to become a Bills fan after he was born two months after the BS in Tennessee. We used ti give the kid grief that the drought was on him: he used to use Billy Buffalo as an excuse, which I appreciated because Billy Buffalo became a thing at about 2000. And then I watched as he went nuts (as we all were) when Boyd caught a d turned upfield between the safeties. The kid was another generation. This was also when Bills Mafia became a national influence beyond drunks jumping through tables, but of a responsible, caring community. Go Bills! A few weeks away from actual news!

Loyalty, camaraderie, sense of history/where we’ve come from, and unbridled optimism normally springing from no good faith basis!! But in this case, ever since JA burst on the scene, we can’t be optimistic enough! A sense of history and a sense of humor 👍all the best qualities for sure… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
