Figured I'd go with a little opposite take on the "what did you do that caused the Bills to lose" threads that were circulating a few weeks ago. Pretty good stuff in there so here goes.
Let's take it back 6 years to the season opener. Optimism at its highest, TO in a Bills uniform, MNF at Razor against our hated rivals. The Bills play brilliantly for what about 55 minutes? Then we know what happened. A Pats score followed by the McFumble.
I did was any other self respecting Bills fan would have done. I calmly and quietly walked down the stairs into the storage room of our basement. I picked up a hockey stick and proceeded to go to town. Nothing was safe. Metal coffee pots, plastic storage containers, etc. The stick itself was turned into pieces by the brick wall. After a few minutes of destruction i sat at the bottom of the steps for 10-15 minutes then calmly walked back up stairs, showered and went to bed. Pretty sure my wife feared for my sanity.
Fast forward to this morning. After years of unnecessary crap piling up in the basement, I decided today was the day a thorough purging and cleaning was to commence. I came upon the back corner where most of the remnants of that night's destruction had been consolidated and still sat. I had left them in a pile there all this time as some kind of sick and twisted momento or offering to the football gods. They have certainly not listened and this is a new era of Buffalo Bills so what better time to exercise the demons right?
I cleaned up and bagged all the debri from that fateful night and just dropped off a packed Jeep Grand Cherokee worth of garbage at the landfill. So there you have it folks. We can breathe easy again, as brighter days are ahead. I've gotten the ball rolling who else is going to help me?
