  1. I think it’s honorable to not take sports too seriously, considering you have nothing to do with the outcome. So if you want to switch teams because of one player that went to your college, or you like the logo or the uniforms, then fine. People switching teams seems very petty, but it’s all relative to how big of a fan you actually are. That being said, if you don’t feel something when you see the logo of your team, you’re not really a die hard fan. When I see the charging buffalo, I feel pride and hope, but also a bit of sadness, and I feel all those things at a fairly intense level. The last few (semi) successful seasons have been extremely cathartic after having spent thousands of dollars and sacrificing countless hours to watch every single game over the years. Not to mention it’s so much easier to see every game now. I grew up and live in Seattle and when the Seahawks win, I’m happy for my friends and family. But when they lose, I’m laughing inside because this town is full of bandwagon jumpers and fair-weather fans. I’m pretty comfortable in saying I’m the biggest Seattle born Bills fan. If the Bills moved or disappeared I wouldn’t watch the NFL at all. When the Sonics left Seattle in 2008, that was it for me. Haven’t watched a full NBA game since.
  2. Shadow GM Von Miller with his first signing

    Matt Araiza

    Ariaza needs to rebrand as “Punt Gosh” and maybe shoot for the XFL.
  4. Hell oui! Looking forward to him getting action with a 21 point 4th quarter lead in several games this season.
  5. The last bills game I didn’t either watch or at least keep up with online in real time was in 2008 against the 49ers. We lost 10-3 and it seemed like a pretty pitiful effort. It was my dad’s 60th birthday and we were in Hawaii. Aside from that, I’ve planned my schedule around games without exception. If you’re checking an NFL teams message board several times a day in April, you can’t miss any games during the season. I don’t know how the folks who attend church deal with this. Sounds complicated.
  6. Seems like there was a run of tall, slender receivers that were busts. Malcom Kelly and his legendary freestyle, James Hardy, Limas Sweed…probably more
  7. It brings his tenure to crescendo and will cement his legacy as a Buffalo legend or merely a good HC that couldn’t quite make it to glory town.
  8. Only 192 more pages to go!
  9. My optimism sees Ed having a great season in a contract year and he helps us get that Lombardi. If the guys in the top of my field could get 23.5 million a year, I would ball out.
  10. My god, anyone can see that Davis blew that play. He could have easily slowed up to make a catch at helmet level and been completely ran over, which would be an easy PI call. Instead, he hand checks him for several yards, which basically negates any PI and turns it into “hand fighting”. Then he doesn’t get his body under the ball or even get a hand on it when he could have easily had both hands on the ball. It was a terrible play on his part on a 70 yard throw from JA. This is who he is. Pretty good, but not good enough to make that catch and never will be.
  11. I’d sign my children away to get out of that room. Good lord, it’s like the Windows 3.1 Hot Dog Stand color scheme.
  12. I remember that guy from my Seahawks game programs from the late ‘80s. Number 22 maybe?
  13. They did basically fire the ST coach for the kick. And Levi Wallace more or less took personal responsibility for the coverage debacle.
  14. I’m with you here…a play action roll-out especially. It always seems to have potential for a big gain on the throw and the chaos is exciting.
  15. My name is Zane Alderson so I’m loving this
  16. The buying and wearing a Herbstreet jersey part
  17. Funny story, a friend of a friend of a friend showed up to pitcher night at the bowling alley about 18 years ago wearing a Herbstreet Ohio State throwback jersey. It was so incredibly stupid, I couldn’t stop laughing at him until I realized he was ready to kick the crap out of me and I had to weave a tale about my cousin wearing number 4 and being obsessed with it and so on.
  18. Exactly. See: Texans 3rd and 18 conversion in the playoffs a few years ago.
  19. The issue is that it allows for yet another subjective call from the officials, which allows them to control the game even more they already do. It’s a countdown timer. When it’s over, it’s over.
  20. That Diggs pick for the Vikings could have easily ended up being Jaylon Raegor which would have made it a laughable win for us.
  21. The bengals getting first downs on half their plays and having multiple several minute drives also played a part.
