I am not being negative.
I am basking in the glow of perpetual mediocrity. (50 year fan here)
I am tired of the resounding mantra "We are number two".
I want to see someone take charge and just WIN a championship before I die.

I would just like to introduce myself to the board. I have read it practically everyday for about ten years but never commented until now, it seemed like the time is right. I have been a Bills fan for about 35 years. I was born and raised in Rochester but reside just outside New Orleans now. I have always wanted to get on here and talk Bills football but the negativity and put downs of others differing opinions caused me to hesitate. I decided to add my two cents and hopefully add some insight and humor.
So you will have to let us know if you come north and we can go to Nick's for a Garbage Plate.
I am from Buffalo but have spent most of my life in Rockchester.
Differing opinions should be welcomed, but that is just my opinion

The stories regarding some of the talent that didn't show is pretty interesting. The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Bob Dylan, The Stones. All invited but for reasons didn't show up.
Some could not get through the traffic. Most ended up coming in by helicopter.
Sha Na Na was there because they won a contest at a bar (at least that is what I heard).
Too many did not make the movie or soundtrack cut - mostly due to record label conflicts.
Honorable mention to Richie Havens. He was one of the few there at the start, so they found him a guitar and asked him to play anything to calm the impatient crowd. He played all the songs he knew and then started making songs up - improv.
That got us the song "Freedom"
John Sebastion forget the words to his own song
Canned Heat was audio only inthe movie and soundtrack.
CSNY, Suite: Judy Blue Eyes was unreal
Jimi and the Star Spangled Banner in the A.M. gives me chills.
No, I was a tiny bit too young to have been there.

Objectively, he is a better QB than I am.
Like me, he is not a starter in the NFL on a winning team.
-
Worst team in football. We got steamrolled today.
I hope Orton gets aids and sleeps with CJ and they both are forced into retirement.
Remind me not to p*ss you off.

So what is this your extremely dim witted defense of the current regime?
I hear a song coming around, "Hakuna Retatta!"
Proteus, when was the last time a Bills game on Christmas week was worth watching?
With this team, you take whatever enjoyment you can get, with no other expectations.

It will be a sad day when this streak ends.

Did anybody see the penalties called on the INT returns? They didn't show them on the replay and they seemed questionable. 76 total yards lost on those penalties.
On one play they just called the penalty on the "receiving team". Did they all do something?
KO is terrible. 3rd and 1 and he slides two yards behind the line of scrimmage? Playing the best QB in the NFL and you don't dive for that? Playing for the post season?
Nice of him to get a few garbage TDs and Yards tho
We were screaming when he did this! He had the first down by just letting his momentum carry him forward instead of sitting down. That was a gutless play.

I am just surprised that it is December and the Bills have a chance (albeit small) to BE in the play offs.
-
Really. The Bills have to realize that quarterback is not synonymous with band-aid.

I'm about to sound like a giant beer snob but some of these answers are laughable. Might as well call Bud Lite a fine craft brew.
You sound like a giant beer snob.

Really? 6,000+ posts and this is what you have to offer?
I liked it! Beats another poll on who gets fired next, or should EJ start.
-
I'm hungry for some Karen Carpenter.
Wow, what a concept!
-
Ugh, how could I have forgotten Aimee Mann & Zooey Deschanel???
I love Zooey and M. Ward as She and Him performing "Never Had Nobody Like You" (M. Ward?) and "You Really Got a Hold on Me" by the Miracles

Good for her. I am glad she won. I hope every child like this wins a lawsuit.
Then maybe people will finally stop having kids when they cannot afford to have kids then.
Parents should do everything within their financial means to pay for college or give some type of assistance, it is the obligation of a parent.
The you are 18 now get of the house parents make me sick, selfish bastards. You have kids to try and give them the best chance in life to succeed, and you make sacrifices for them.
As father of four fantastic adult 'children', I believe this has to be mutual.
Everybody wins.

No way to pick one.
Here is a vote for Emmylou Harris!

Thurman Thomas, off tackle.

Working 1:30 to midnight and I don't have NFL Network, so I cannot even DVR it.
NY tax dollars at work.

Been a long long time since we Bills fans even had a game that mattered enough to get pissed off about....so for me that's a moral victory.....and so somebody's got to say it so I wil - there's always next year!
I have been saying that since 1966, and it tastes really bad.
I am trying to figure out how to be a Bills fan without caring if they win or lose.
As it was said earlier, I have seen this game scenario100 times, and I am sick of it.
Time to take a step back and think of better things for a few days.
-
If the band is paid to perform, they should be declaring it as taxable income, right?
If they donate their time, they can deduct their band fees and expenses they would have earned for a paying gig.
If they can and they want to donate their time, great. If not, it is a free choice. Do not get upset.
Every year I walk and collect money for MS. I am SO thankful for donations, but NEVER get upset if someone does not sponsor me.
-
I really love the optimism expressed here. It is hard for me to have confidence in the team, simply because they have smacked me down too many times.
What I will hope for is that the Bills take care of their own business every week, and not rely on someone else to lose.
They need to get the train rolling and get in on their on merit.
Just my $0.02.
GO BILLS!

Apology Letters to the Pats*
in The Stadium Wall Archives
Posted
I feel bad for a close friend who has loved the Patriots forever.
It was hard enough to suffer through all the 0 for 4 jokes as a Bills fan.
It was hard to listen to all the OJ jokes.
I can only imagine he must be feeling right about now.
