BillsPride12

Being from Buffalo I think part of the problem is the Bills and Sabres have such a college town following to them that nobody actually cares about the college teams lol

Yeah like I said it's not like I am against UB, it just doesn't strike any emotion with me. But I think you are right about them never having much of an athletic tradition. Growing up I never gave them a second thought but I loved the Bills and Sabres so that's where my fandom for those teams came from. If either of them got their act right it would be an incredible high for me...but with the UB thing it was more like this is cool but I wish I cared more lol.

I saw the other UB post listed and it got me wondering how many of you follow UB or even have any interest in UB sports for that matter? The reason I'm curious is because I went there for two years to finish out my Bachelor's Degree and I just don't have a care in the world about their sports teams. I realized this during their March Madness appearance. Now I am not Anti-UB and I was happy for them but I just didn't find myself having any genuine excitement over the whole thing...I mean I tried but just couldn't muster up any feelings!

True, but I just thought that was an interesting choice for funniest movie ever. Don't get me wrong I like that movie but I wouldn't even consider it a comedy.

A fun, feel good, nostalgic look back on Christmas that is worth a watch at Christmas once a year but funniest movie ever?

Roy McAvoy lol

Here's another old school classic....Bachelor Party with Tom Hanks!

Plate cover but not the Plate itself

Dumb and Dumber Kingpin

How is the draft party at the stadium? I've never been to it before but I've got a buddy who has club seats who asked me to tag along with him if I wanted to. I'm leaning towards going

There is no such thing as a second favorite team....but I do have a soft spot for the Packers

Happy Easter to the best damn fans in all of sports...Our time is coming! But for now hope everybody gets to enjoy time with their family and loved ones

That's impressive!

The E-60 on Ryan Leaf last year was great stuff. I'll never hate on a guy who turned his life around and learned from the mistakes he made when he was young and dumb.

I guess you expect a lot of change when you are talking over the course of 20 years but to me the real scary thing is just how fast 20 years have gone by. I feel like life has been on fast forward ever since I graduated college. One of the cool things about being a sports fan is carrying a sense of tradition and the past with you as you move forward in life

One of the most unexpected major sports stories in years. I have a buddy in Vegas who said everybody in town is going crazy over the Knights...this is great for the sport of hockey and NHL. As a Sabres fan there is definitely a depressing spin to this too

It's become a tradition over the years now to take off Friday from work and go out to the bar with about 8-10 guys from my fantasy football league and catch the draft. Makes it fun because we hang out and socialize in between the picks coming in. I would be too bored having to sit home and watch the draft on the couch. For the next rounds I pay attention to when we are picking and see who we grab and then research on that player but I don't actually sit and watch too much of it.

I've got a bunch of miscellaneous Sports Memorabilia and I collect shot glasses from every big city I visit

Fair enough. I'm not upset or anything about it but I guess when I saw that title before I clicked on the thread my first thoughts were Wow he must've really been in a bad place(to a degree we already know whatever happened was very bad but it really could just be the result of a bad reaction to synthetic weed etc..and not related to any depressed or suicidal feelings) but once I saw the tweet itself I was like Ehh...people post that kind of stuff all the time when they are celebrating their birthday so to me the context was different than I was expecting. In any case, I just wish the best for Zay going forward. Can only live and learn, I know I sure did from a lot of things in my early 20s. Life is all about Living....and then learning from the dumb mistakes we make along the way!

His tweet is clearly related to him reflecting on it being his birthday today...maybe that part is semi-related to his incident but I think this thread title is a bit misleading

Out of the guys who actually had game....Favre, Marino, Elway were the best gunslingers I've seen in my lifetime

Something that has plagued the Bills far too long during the drought years were too many "good moral character guys" who don't get in trouble and know how to say the right things but lack the relentlessness the kind of players that want to be great and win championships need to have.

I just watched the 30 for 30 on the 85 Bears the other night and was thinking about how different the game was back then. I still love football but it will never be what it was in the 80s and 90s

Ha excellent reference, I haven't heard the name Major Magic's in yearsssss

I made it official today...I'm Back
