Is a "Bad" Year Really All That Bad for the Bills?
BillsPride12 replied to Midwest1981's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If we bottom out this year and get our "Dahlin" in the draft I'd be fine with it. -
3rd Super Bowl loss sends Tim McVeigh over the edge
BillsPride12 replied to NeckMeat182's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I was just referring to the national perception. Unfortunately when that story broke a lot of people on the internet were connecting him to the Bills. It's stupid but it's reality. Just like how I don't feel McVeigh should be connected to the Bills in any way but some idiots out there will. That article was a joke. -
3rd Super Bowl loss sends Tim McVeigh over the edge

The goalposts came down in 80, 88, and 91....it seems like some don't realize it happened on 3 separate occasions -

Ugh first the shooter in Jacksonville and now this.....this is not the type of publicity the Bills want -
Count me as a wing snob then because in all honesty I haven't come across any decent wings outside of WNY in my travels. At the same time I've also seen out of towners who absolutely rave about how amazing the wings are in WNY.

If Allen Shines Today, What Is McD's Decision?
BillsPride12 replied to OldTimeAFLGuy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If Allen shines today the decision really becomes easy...simple as that. -
This "chain letter" has been around way before Facebook blew up. I can remember emailing this to my aunt and uncle when they moved to Las Vegas in 2003

Worth another look: All of Bruce's sacks
BillsPride12 replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Finally found the time to sit through and watch them all, man what an unbelievable talent Bruce was. I remember some younger posters(at least I hope they were younger posters)trying to put Mario Williams on the same level as Bruce a few years back. Not even close I still get chills after every sack with the BRUUUCCCEEEEE chants -
His age alone doesn't fit with what we're trying to build IMO...same reason why the Sabres had no problem getting rid of O'Reilly because of the ages of the core being 19-22 years old. Doesn't make sense to give up draft picks and spend a ton of $$$$ on a guy who will be "old" once the young core they are building here are all in their prime years.

Some very interesting and good replies in this thread. I can't pinpoint exactly when it started but my level of enthusiasm for the NFL as a whole has been declining more and more each season. I haven't watched any preseason football outside of the Bills games this year. The NFL as a product has just gone completely downhill. The coverage is way too commercialized these days, the big hitting has been taken out of the game, the officiating is always terrible. Somebody posted that video collection of all of Bruce Smith's sacks the other day and it was beautiful but oh so bittersweet at the same time because that's when the NFL was in it's prime and what made me fall in love with the sport. The presentation was so much simpler back then and they used to let the players have fun, and the games were more intense with real rivlaries. The game was for the blue collar demographic and nowadays the NFL markets itself to the mainstream and I think that has taken some of the special feelings I always had for the past-time away for me. I still watch but can see the day where I walk away from it if things keep trending this way. I stopped watching the NBA this year because of the circus that became.

I wouldn't use overrated as how I would describe our defense but I would say it is still a work in progress...in the sense that there are still holes to be filled and they will continue to build it up over the next couple years. I think we are on our way to having a legit top 5 defense but not expecting it this year.

BillsPride12 replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He was something special that's for sure Starting at 1:07 in that video....he just pinned this dude down and did the 1-2-3 WWF Pin That's a 15 yard penalty in today's game man the NFL was a million times more fun back in those days -
Bud Light "Victory Fridges" in Cleveland
BillsPride12 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Cool concept but budweiser sucks It would be cool to see Labatt do something like this if the Bills ever made it into the playoffs and they would give out free beer if we won the Super Bowl(Hey I can dream right )
