Mikie2times Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 I don't have any connections to Buffalo but I still couldn't be a fan if they moved. Some times it's the fans that make the team, Buffalo is certainly an example of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2003 Posted December 5, 2005 Author Share Posted December 5, 2005 Look the Colts are sitting 12-0, and the Rams have won a Superbowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 The reason I love the Buffalo Bills isn't because they're such a well run organization (because they aren't) or because of their uniforms (because those change) or because of the players (because those change, too). It's the "Buffalo" in "Buffalo Bills" that I'm really supporting. And I don't even live in Western New York, okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have dedicated blue collar fans that can truly appreciate success because fair weather is about the worst thing somebody can be. The journey will be more difficult for us, but in the end victory will be that much sweeter. Throw all that in with one of the toughest winter stadiums to play at in the NFL, and they have a unique relationship with the city they play in. You might move them and still have success on the field, or financially, but they would lose the aura that makes some of us such die hard fans.

nodnarb Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 SDS would probably say that it doesn't really matter. It would matter. I think it would be devastating to western NY. Not meteorite impact devastating, or 3 mile island devastating, but devastating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconator Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 New Orleans will be in L.A. No chance for Buffalo to be relocated there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt in KC Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 I would still root for some of the players I knew as Bills, but would not care about the organization/franchise. I think after 2 years I'd feel about the same as I do now about the Vikings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 I dont think i could be a Bills fan if they left. Id be heartbroken. 520104[/snapback] I'd end up a Panthers fan cause the days the Bills leave Buffalo I quit being a fan, sorry I root for the Bills cause I grew up in WNY listening to games on the radio in the early 60's, traveling to Rich with season tickets in the early 70's, was at the 1980 opening day win over those DAMN felons after suffering thru the 0 for the 70s. sang talkign proud as the 1980 Bills made their run, sat thru the 2-14 seasons. Moved to NC however have had DTV sunday ticket since it came out and now with Sirius I can listen to Bills announcers instead of these other Morons they give us week in and out.

It doesn't make sense given the topic. The Bills would no longer exist. The name, the colors would be gone, so I don't see how anyone would follow the team in a positive way.

Shamrock Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 A tout le monde... Hmmm. They could come to Melbourne. I'd save a lot of money getting to games that way. Let's see. US ally, check- that rules out any Canadian move! Good weather. Sport mad city. Host of the 2006 Commonwealth games. Yep. The Bills can come to Melbourne, only they can't change the name, uniform or anything else- that'd be the sticking point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
granitestatebillsbackers Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 You don't have to take a poll to figure out what some of the Bills' "fans" are going to do. Just read this bulletin board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
