It completely ignores our team name and focuses only on the city. Buffalo Bill fought in the Indian wars, and scalped an Indian chief They're not touching any association with Buffalo Bill anymore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Things Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I'm glad that Josh is attracting more people to be Buffalo Bills fans, but as a former Colorado State Ram, I have zero desire in making a connection between the Buffalo Bills and my main university rival. (Wyoming.) When did we ever do this for another player or college? Were we huge Miami fans when Jimbo was out QB? Hell no. Wyoming fans have always been Denver Bronco fans, because it's a Rocky Mountain regional thing. I'm sure they'll root for Josh, but they're Bronco supporters, at their core. Let's go Buffalo and Let's go CSU Rams! 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen I'm totally against cancel culture But if the name Cleveland Indians has to be changed, and Washington Redskins... Bill Cody actually scalped a native American... There's no reason he won't be deemed offensive to PC people because of his actions Edited October 16, 2021 by Buffalo716 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bucking buffalo logo and helmet decal to go with it. the san diego padres switch between their old school brown and mustard yellow to camo to blue and gray and white etc. Meh I dunno, having that drastic a color change for a uniform when it relates to just 1 player thats a bit much... maybe a commemorative helmet decal for a special game? I dunno. 5 minutes ago, Bad Things said: I'm glad that Josh is attracting more people to be Buffalo Bills fans, but as a former Colorado State Ram, I have zero desire in making a connection between the Buffalo Bills and my main university rival.

Let's go Buffalo and Let's go CSU Rams! I have it on great authority that the rivalry between Ft Collins and Laramie is legendary....The Rams right? I heard there was a game when Wyoming threw an actual real but dead severed head of a "ram" onto the field lol geez NASTY Much? smh but rivalry Yes Im aware.

Especially being located where the Bills are located. Which is why just leaving it at as a Buffalo is the smart move. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WyoAZBillfan Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) I’m from Wyoming, been a Bills fan since Kelly finally joined to the team. Wyoming absolutely roots for Josh and the team, until they play the Broncos. Majority of folks (as previously stated) are Denver fans still from what I’ve seen. Either way, more people cheering for the Bills is awesome and been much easier to find apparel.

Again cancel culture people, absolutely will not see a difference between things that happened in wartime or peace If they heard he scalped a native American Indian chief he would be next on The chopping block There Is not a doubt in my mind they would come after him next And I'm as pro military as you can get.. this is just what would happen Edited October 17, 2021 by Buffalo716 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much else going on in Wyoming, is there. lol I'd argue that you're devaluing the character of the American West, and our ever diminishing rural landscapes. Cities aren't inherently superior.
