Ramius Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 anyone see the new claymation Bills commercial? Theres a family with bills gear watching the game, and you hear the announcer say how the game's about over and the other team is gonna take a knee. Then you hear him go crazy and say "he fumbles the snap" and the Bills return the fumble for a TD, and "the bills win, can you believe it". The family goes crazy. then you hear this... "Wait...the officials are saying he stepped out of bounds on the 30 yard line, and the Bills lose. What a heartbreaker." Then the words come up on the screen... "Without Sports, we'd stop believing." What a cheap shot. !@#$ you espn. :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zac Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 It's kind of a compliment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maguire's Beer Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 It's kind of a compliment. 561325[/snapback] Yeah, I like it. If we can't win, at least it's nice to be acknowledged as the Red Sox-style hardluck capital of the NFL, instead of dismissed as an inconsequential loser a la Arizona.

Stussy109 Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Old news, that came out about a month ago or earlier... great commercial nonetheless... Sums up the rollercoater ride of a Bills fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Why would any Bills' fan be pissed about this commercial? It's an homage to being a diehard fan. Geez, do some of you just wake up in the morning looking for reasons to get bent about something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X. Benedict Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I got a great laugh out of it. It just sums up so much....kind of like McGee getting tripped up at the 4 yrd line against New Orleans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corp000085 Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 its definitely not a regional ad. I've seen it here in NC, in y-town ohio, and in buffalo. Its a great commercial though. Shows everyone what its truly like to be a DIE HARD bills fan who's blood is red white and blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sound_n_Fury Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 An arcane reference to the non-call on Bebee when he stepped on the line on his TD in the "greatest comeback" game, perhaps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
