‘Sometimes you can actually see the penalty on the replay, and after we’re done hurling curse words at the TV we begrudgingly accept it and move on. But they generally don’t show a replay at all, which just lends evidence to our conclusion that it was made up to screw Buffalo. Anti-Buffalo conspiracy theories have been a past topic of conversation across all of our local professional sports teams. Now, rather than reopening what is an old wound, it’s been reduced to the quiet acknowledgement of that possibility. Still, many a celebration has been turned to aggravation, watching something so exciting go away – benefiting the opposition in the process.’
