Seemed like it. It was a weird year even a weird atmosphere to start the game, the tailgate included, kind of disappointing it was only a wild card birth. Just different from the other playoff games in previous years, not as much excitement. And I am just referring to playoffs, as the Bills attendance has always been lower in December, no matter what the record. I don't remember it being 75k, I thought it was much lower. But maybe I am just thinking of the second half when everyone from the upper deck moved to the seats that were vacated in the lower bowl at half time. I sit in row 1 and tend to look around the stadium prior to every game. There's nothing like the opener looking around a jam packed house. The Houston game had a lot of walk up ticket sales IIRC, but I don't think it was 75k, but could be wrong...

yes, the last year of the 4 SB run. This was the year where attendance declined from the previous 5 or 6 or so seasons. And everyone points the Houston game and the Bills non playoff sellout to prove their small market theories.

I don't think anyone really believes that any more. It used to be though.... "when it's too cold for them, it's just right for us!"

Yes, that was the end of the run. Previous to that, the stadium was full. And if this team is not just in the hunt, but one of the top teams in December, the games will sell out. It's not a "small market" argument, it's all about winning.

Towards the end of the run of 4 SB's attendance started to dip. But when Kelly and crew began that run, it was a full house every game, no matter what time of year.

The only reason Bills fans do not "currently" like late home games is because 99% of the time, at least during the past 17 or so years, they are meaningless. Good teams prefer late games at home late in the season. In the late 80's/ early 90s, 3 out of the last 4 games at home would have been fantastic. This is actually a good thing if the Bills are a good team.

Ruben Brown, Donald Jones teaming up for 'Buffalo Soldiers' podcast http://buffalonews.com/2018/04/19/ruben-brown-donald-jones-teaming-up-for-buffalo-soldiers-podcast/ Donald Jones and Ruben Brown may have played football for the Buffalo Bills during different eras, but now they’ve decided to team up for a new sports podcast called "The Buffalo Soldiers," slated to debut during the week of the 2018 NFL Draft. They said they plan to talk about sports in general, not just football. And when they do talk football, it will be about the entire league and not just the Bills. “We’ll have a Bills piece for sure and every episode will have a full Bills segment. But we’ll also have other topics going on and guests in the studio – players, celebrities, and different analysts throughout the whole NFL, and the entertainment industry,” The Buffalo Soldiers podcast will be filmed on Monday nights at McFadden’s Saloon, a popular Bills-backer bar based in New York City. When it starts to get more traction, Jones and Brown want to literally take their show on the road and travel to different Bills-backer bars around the country. “We’ll shoot those shows on Saturday nights,” Jones explained. “So, if the Bills are playing in Miami one week, we’ll go down there, find a Bills backer bar and go all out.”

Wouldn't wear it, but not bad. I would have went with Trust instead of Billieve though...

ooooh, interesting...I heard the same thing from Brocton Brad...F5 F5 F5!

Not odd at all, fairly common practice in all of sports...

Her top is more manly than his...

I never got this argument, but hear it all the time. The studio is located at One Bills Drive, it doesn't get any more "homer" than that. Would you rather have someone B word about the Bills incompetence throughout the whole show? We get enough of that here....

Yes, looked like they were joining the fight in the previews. The helicopter and the flare's, wtf? The Saviors holding Rick and Morgan are rattled by walkers? It's like they are seeing them for the first time and running scared. Maybe just close the door after going inside? Lame... I thought Negan going to head to head with Simon was a brilliant move to solidify the Saviors. Simon's zombified body was awesome!

Good choice! As long as it's the one on Transit. Amherst Ale House pizza and wings "ain't bad"? The Ale House pizza and wings are very good. Top 10 for wings in the Buffalo area, love the Crown Royal BBQ (Finished on the grill and coated again...)....

At least it's original and not the "I wanted my post to stick out, aka LAMP, and not put it in the other thread already discussing this topic in great detail"...

The scene where the injured turned into walkers was reminiscent of the prison scene when they were "attacked" from within. I just don't see how they didn't have anyone on guard. I understand why the did it that way, so the hillside would know Negan is resorting to "chemical warfare", but it just didn't make any sense to me...I am in it until the end and do still enjoy most of the show for some reason. I really like the book that Maggie was given, it provides a little glimpse of hope...

Let the record show that I will forget Pete's LAMP by draft day....

I turned down free suite tickets for tonight, so I would think it's still a tough sell...

I think you're on to something....

Doesn't help them, doesn't hurt them.

EPIC indeed...Good thing he adds the "lol" or we might think he's serious...

Race does not factor into analyzing TT, for the most part it's all about your statement which I bolded. He is a decent QB and game manager and nothing else. He is a high character guy and I wish him the best in Cleveland, but I am glad he is no longer in Buffalo. He wasn't treated unfairly here as some might think, he started for 3 seasons! He was benched for refusing to throw the ball into tight windows and playing it too safe. The anger here isn't directed at TT, but towards other posters who over value TT's contributions and believe he is better than he actually is and that the Bills were somehow holding him back. It's those ridiculous comments that will ensure a heated TT debate, but I can assure you that most here appreciate TT's contributions and have nothing but respect for the way he handled himself as a Bill. The color of the QB's skin does not matter to Bills fans, it's all about winning. It's unfortunate that your post mentioned race, but welcome to the board...

Will let you know in August...

Just End The Season...
