AlCowlingsTaxiService Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 Amazed at all the wringing of hands here … mains are quit passable with caution. Same for the interstates. They got home with zero issues. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I’m guessing they were allowed to use the Thruway to get from Rochester to the Buffalo airport, and then they were all allowed to individually drive home from the airport to their homes in OP (or the south towns), while everybody else is locked down at home, and there is a standing traffic ban, with threats of arrest for being out on the roads!? Just Wow! Rules are for suckers, not NFL organizations, I guess. 🙄 What are you 12? This world is us. And this world is them. In most cases "us" are only here because "them" allow it. Either way.

zow2 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I saw on Twitter where the buses came from Rochester down route 33 through Batavia, Corfu, etc.. I have no problem with the team getting the players back to their homes, which would require some driving on local roads. They should be with their families. People that want to b*tch about it just live to complain and find things to be upset about all the time. 9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since1981 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Usually, side roads and state roads are open even if/when interstate is “closed”. They can’t physically “close” all roads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starr Almighty Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I understand the players get paid big bucks. But in the grand scheme of things, they play to entertain us. I can't believe people are actually mad that after freezing their sacks off. They are being allowed to be with their loved ones on Christmas. I'd want that for any person, let alone the team. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People that want to b*tch about it just live to complain and find things to be upset about all the time. This deserves a Bump. Everyone assuming the Bills violated the closure of the NYS Thruway. No, they came down main roads, that were open. Yes, they did violate driving bans in Erie County, but those normally don't apply to "Essential Workers". I have no problem with considering getting the Bills home as "essential travel" especially if they had guidance on what roads were open and what to avoid. 14 hours ago, Since1981 said: Usually, side roads and state roads are open even if/when interstate is “closed”. They can’t physically “close” all roads. I know this goes without saying for most, but the thing that physically closes the roads is often the physical conditions - the driving ban exists because the roads are in such bad shape that cars are getting stuck just from folks trying to get home from work, then that makes plowing more difficult. Witness this pic looking N on Transit from Sheridan road: The plow obviously needed to be creative already, and one more guy who gets stuck in the only open lane, and EMS is screwed on response. Anyway, point is, being a dick about getting the Bills home on Sunday afternoon after the storm isn't going to do a Thing to help people who couldn't get an ambulance or a rescue from their stuck car during the thick of it on Fri or Sat. It's tragic, but me ripping my clothes and smearing ashes on my face Sunday night doesn't get you heat or a ride home on Saturday morning.

Any crew the team might have wanted to hired could well have been unable to get out or unable to travel - the team tried to hire snowplows to clear the player's driveways for travel to Detroit and the plows couldn't get out. But according to this video from Coach Dorsey's wife, there were apparently teams of volunteers who turned out to help shovel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppy Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I had to laugh at the irony. While the team traveled on Route 33 to Return to Buffalo It was the very same highway my own parents got stuck and stranded on during the Blizzard of 77 In an attempt to attend my aunts funeral in Buffalo. They could not get back home for FIVE days. But the same road was clear enough for travel and escort home for our Bills. My parents are undoubtedly smirking up in heaven as I type this 🙂 I read 25 deaths so far. This chit is really no joke Im not making light of it. But of course Im glad the Bills are home. I hope everybody gets at home ASAP. amen.-m 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playoffs? Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Sorry if already posted… but I’m watching GMFB right now, and they’re showing clips of the Bills players digging their cars out of the snow at the airport. Im actually blown away that they didn’t have the team park under cover (somewhere, anywhere), having a good idea that the weather was going to be insane. Pick ‘em up in a covered lot or garage and bus right to plane. Perhaps overreaction, and bigger issues in the world though… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
