  1. The only team I ever stopped following was the Buffalo Braves/San Diego Clippers. Loved the Buffalo Braves as a kid...was heartbroken when they moved to San Diego...I really tried to keep following them...but at the point in time, trying to follow an west-coast NBA team was near impossible. They were never on tv, and box-scores might appear in the Courier Express two days after the fact. I switched allegiances to the Celtics. It was the early days of cable, and we could watch every Celtics game on the Boston super station. I hated them when the Braves were in town...but my older brother and father were both Celitcs fans from the pre-Braves era of the NBA, so it wasn't as bad a leap as it sounds. I did like the Montreal Expos as a kid (Bills colors), but kinda lost interest in baseball early on. My love of the Sabres is on life-support right now...I still watch most games, but they are starting to be nothing but depressing. I think about ditching them every season...but something keeps me holding on. It gets a little harder each year... The Bills? No, I will never stop pulling for them...as hard as this ***** is right now, I still love team..
  2. And I still remember how many here laughed when they heard that Whaley wanted the Bills to take Mahomes...hindsight is always 20/20
  3. I have taken the Monday off after the Super Bowl every year since 1990...it's my own personal holiday. I am sure I will watch the Super Bowl this year...but I absolutely loath both teams involved. At work today, wish I had taken it off... really depressed about the game....sure it will pass. But, there are few things worse than people offering hollow consolation over something they don't know, or care about...especially when they mostly Cowboys fans!
  4. Yeah, I get it...it sucks to lose...again. But I hate these kinds of posts too. It's fine to be a fair weather fan, if it makes it easier for you to cope...but why project that on to our players?
  5. The more talk there is, the less I care. If Josh wins it, it will only confirm, to all of us, what we already know...but it will also just take the whole MVP argument to even more absurd levels. The MVP award only really matters in national perception. The narrative will be that Lamar got screwed, the NFL favors Allen...and most depressingly, that there is some racial undertone to the whole thing. ***** the MVP! A Super Bowl is the only thing that will ever end the argument!
  6. That is pretty much all sports commentary is these days...
  7. When I had season tickets (1980-1988- i got out just in time!) we used to go to a local bar (Fletchers) and they had their own bus that drove people out there...it was something like $15 per person, with a few kegs...all the beer you could drink. It was awesome...they didn't know I was a minor the first 3 years or so! Me, and my sister are getting older...I think I could walk the 4 miles...maybe...not sure about my sister!

  9. The things I root for most are the Bills...whichever team is playing the Chiefs, and for Aaron Rodgers to lose. If the Bills are eliminated, my fallback teams this year would be Green Bay (just to annoy the piss out Rodgers) and, I suppose, the Lions. The teams I would most hate to see win it all are KC, Philadelphia or Baltimore.

  11. Nice, thanks. Can you tell me, was it pretty packed? Did a lot of people use it?

  13. So, I am going to be in town for Christmas...my dear sister (who has never been to a Bills game) got us a pair of tickets for the Jets game. Parking is expensive as hell...just wondering, has anyone here ever taken the Game Day Express to and from for a game? It's only $5 each way... anyone know if it gets packed? I haven't lived in Buffalo in about 35 years, but my memories of NFTA are not great. Is it worth it?
  14. Disappointing outcome tonight, to be sure. I really thought we needed to get the lead first, to win this one...that said, is it crazy for me to think it was odd that the Bills didn't go for it on 4th & 2 on that opening drive, after going for it on 4th & 1 on their own 39, on the same drive? I don't get it.
  15. Heard one of the talking heads discussing Phillips matchup with Brown, prior to the game...sorry can't remember who it was. They said that when Brown has struggled it has typically been against shorter guys, who can get underneath him...but they predicted that Brown would match-up well against, becasue he is a larger guy. Brown is 6 ft. 8, while Phillips is 6 ft. 5
