gloryhole has lost his street cred. He's another one of Goodell's corporate shills

is that the astrodome next to the Texans stadium? Why isn't that thing imploded yet?
Aikman looks like he just rolled out of the rack

72nd with a bullett

it makes sense. The season's over after the final gun Monday

waiting for talent to come around has got us to the decade of fail. Great organizations build culture and process so that above average talent can succeed in the absence of great talent

never been to a reunion. Have only stayed in touch with a few friends sparingly

I won $2. Made a down payment on the Seahawks

Why are you slumming with us riff raff?

I love the Bills. Never miss a game...in fact, I've only missed one game since 1984. It was the game against the Colts (coincidentally) where Howard Ballard missed a block, Jim Kelly got creamed, and the "bickering Bills" were born. Watched it a few monthls later, on VHS. I obsessed over this team since I was 7 (1972).
At one point, during the Jauron era, my love of the team slipped a little. I still remember the game...JP Losman was getting his "final chance" to prove that he had any value as a Buffalo Bill. We were playing the Jets. Late in the season. It seemed like the Bills were going to ice away an unspectacular, but hard faught win. All they had to do was run out the clock. For some reason, they had JP roll out and try to run the ball...deep in their own end. Predictably, JP had the ball swatted out of his hands, the Jets scooped it up, and ran the ball into the endzone for a win in the waining moments of the game.
I hated Dick Jaruon so much...that season was so frustrating...I remember snapping after that play...everyone in the bar I was watching was angry, and slamming their cups down...I just started laughing hysterically...people thought I had lost my mind...I couldn't stop laughing...I wanted to, but I couldn't.
My love of the Bills is still strong, but it has never been quite the same after that...just got so numb to the ineptidtude. I will confess, last season, though I didn't think we had a great team at all, I did enjoy them making the playoffs. I never expected it, never expected them to win that game..but it was fun, for one week, to remember how exciting it could be.
I no longer read every article I can get my hands on...never look at team/league stats like I used to...don't tune into the national shows to see how they are talking about us...I just watch on Sundays, enjoy hanging out with other Bills fans, and love it when we win...but if we lose...eh, who cares anymore? I am 53 years old now...I have come to the realization that the Bills aren't likely to win anything in my liftime. My brother passed away last fall...he was 60. He was every bit the Bills fanatic as me...maybe even worse. The last day I saw him, we watched the Bills lose to the Bengals last season. He was really sick, we both knew he didn't have a lot of time left. Our last cognisent conversation he said to me "don't waste too much time on the Bills...there is so many other things to enjoy"
Thanks for this heartfelt post. I've been a season ticket holder for 14 years of mostly terrible football. Still it has given me some of my happiest memories. Last year's playoff appearance still seems surreal. It was a challenge to manage allowing yourself to feel hope. I have confidence that the Beane/McDermott brain trust will restore us to respectability if not glory. Drafting Allen feels right even if it means more waiting.

maybe Josh Allen can play half a season before we relegate him to the scrap heap

I'm a big Bills homer but this is going to be a bloodbath. People will leave at half time

actions not indicative of high intelligence

it's going to be ugly

I think new coaches overhaul rosters so as to be the boss of the locker room and to implement their vision as opposed to competing with their predecessor's. They also do it to buy themselves more time in a precarious profession.
That said, not every new coach gets to overhaul their roster depending on the team structure. I find most big market teams never really do a tear down because their fan bases won't tolerate it

Giants playcalling is terrible

what exactly was that foam zone piece all about?

should have taken the under

I feel fortunate not to have seen the last two games and will similarly avoid the upcoming MNF bloodbath

I'll own it but he's been reduced to a dink and dunk Chad Pennington
