I don't buy anything in the stadium and I park in a private lot. If anything I would do them a favor by not attending, cause I wouldn't be blowing up the sheeters. That said, I will be at the game on Sunday. I don't want the players to feel like I'm giving up on them. I don't feel like this year is on the players. As much as Fitz kills me, as much as Mario disappointed me for 6 weeks, as frustrated as I am with Lindell not being able to put it through the endzone, I think the reason we are not at least 6-5 right now is the coaching staff. Just like every week, I aim be the most obnoxiously loud fan in my section, because I have a sinking feeling that one of these upcoming seasons may be our last.

I don't know if not showing up really creates an impact, especially if you have already paid admission. I know it isn't realistic, but what would send a bigger message: 10k empty seats, or 10k fans clad in paper bags? People react to what they see, not what they don't see.

This is the most frustrating part of it all. The niners were the best team in the league last year, IMO. The Colts won 2 games last year and are in the first wildcard spot right now. The Falcons. The Texans. I'm sick of watching other franchises hit rock bottom, then turn it around, while Buffalo hovers just above the bottom.

13 points doesn't win many ball games.

A picture of a blue and red, rudderless ship going over Niagara Falls would be perfect.

Eight. I feel bad for my 17 year old brother. He may never know what it having a competitive team in Buffalo is like.

Having a third whack at NE would be amazing. Beating them in the playoffs... I would cry like a baby. I'm not kidding. I suppose at that point my alarm clock would go off and my day would begin.

NE, NYJ, PIT, DAL. <-- These teams can do no wrong. Ed Reed got crucified this weekend, and it came immediately. Guys like Spikes and Landry get a slap on the wrist. Oh well.

Ditto that. I picked him up last week and he has been Billy Fuccillo.

Mario doesn't show up on sunday again... WHERE WAS HE?

Lighten up Francis. What does it take, four extra seconds to click on the link?

Holding? Is David Patterson reffing out there?

I wish they were still around. Give them a few more weeks experience on the big stage, and I would be willing to bet they would be an improvement.

Name an easier place to spend drunken nights without the risk of running into national media.

I think the camo is to hide the disappointment.

Yeah. He might not be the best we can do, but he is the best we can do RIGHT NOW.

I have been and always will be against drafting a QB out of USC. I don't know why. Maybe I just hate that they always seem to be overhyped by espn.

When the D is playing well, you don't chance giving them the ball on the 40. You drop it in the 20 and trust your D. Please don't bring up kickoffs... that experiment is over.

Cause that makes the situation better. Next time use the fan hotline.

That's because "I NEED TICKETS" is scapler code for "SELLING TICKETS."

Russ would fit right in.

Having trouble selling tickets?

I park at a private lot. I feel like the situation is a little better because regulars in those lots feel like it is a privilege to use it, and if they don't take care of it, they could lose that privilege. It is always strange walking across the stadium lots to the gates, wading through garbage. There was more trash last night. Inside the stadium, I thought the crowd was a little more tame. I could be wrong, but at least in the few sections around me, I didn't see a single fight or even a heated exchange of words. The one thing that annoyed me most was the freakin' paper airplanes. I predicted that would happen with those cards.

Yeah, thanks for reminding me. Huh...

I agree with you. This isn't a 17 yr old kid we're talking about, this is a 26 year old man. If that was my brother, I wouldn't let it get to that point. You gotta nip these things in the bud. I've cut people off while tailgating. Sometimes it needs to be done. All these things said, I'm surprised there isn't a drunk tank at the stadium.
