    Yep, I know plenty more tix holders that feel this way.

     

    Showing loyalty to Ralph with our wallets doesn’t exist anymore with “drill a well” Terry.

     

    I have a hunch the ticket office already knows what their numbers are gonna look like next year and it’s not gonna be pretty. They are already cold calling season tix holders for “feedback”(read: sales pitch).

     

     I wonder if they’ll  have the nerve to raise prices next season.

    For what it's worth I was just talking to one of my brother's best friends yesterday and he was telling me how his wife has a friend who is a Bills Ticket Rep and he said "Were F***ed" when it comes to selling season tickets next year.

     

    I know I'm done after this year, It has just gotten to the point for me personally I no longer really enjoy the hassle of spending a whole day and a ton of money on going to all of the game.  The atmosphere has changed drastically even over the last 5-10 years.  It feels like more of a chore to go now then something I am actually enjoying.  Would much rather spend my discretionary income on golf trips 

  2. Bills Redskins 1996, the last hurrah for the Jim Kelly Marv Levy era...I think the Redskins were like 7-1 or something like that heading into the game and we kicked their ass that night(pretty sure it was a night game? or it definitely had to have been at least a 4pm start) but I was hooked for life after that one and forever thankful I at least got to see one glory years era Bills game even if I was pretty young and the team was already past it's prime at that point.

    If we can win games that we're supposed to win, (see San Diego, vs Miami, vs Indy and at Miami) and can some how pull off a win at KC or vs NE or at NE) than I like our chances. Yet if we lose to an expected team than the playoffs are good as done. 

    I'm more confident we find a way to lose one of the games were supposed to win than we pull off a win v.s. KC or NE

    January 27th, 1991. EVERYBODY was rooting for the Giants and me being the 10 year old rebel I was rooted my ass off for the Bills. I couldn't tell you one thing about football before that day. By the next Super Bowl I was a complete know it all, started betting with my uncle's and the rest is history. 

    Way to not disappoint! Awesome story and someday it'll all be worth it when the Bills finally hoist the Lombardi(hopefully :mellow:)

    It was definitely an epic experience that I can laugh about now, but at the time, followed by how that season played out ... ugh!

     

    Yes sir, woman here and never been to Buffalo (which confuses people on how I became a die-hard Bills fan while being born and raised in a desert). My 1B bucket list item is a home playoff game in Buffalo. I will do everything in my power to be there this season if the Bills make it happen and Hammer's lot is a must. 

    Don't leave us hanging, whats the story on how you became a Bills fan?

  6. I feel like Bennett is the forgotten Super Bowl Buffalo Bill. Nowadays everybody refers to the Big 4(Kelly, Bruce, Thurman, Andre) but go back and watch games from those prime Super Bowl years and The Biscuit was right up there on their Superstar level. Now I realize he didn't have the longevity here in Buffalo as the other four but he played a MAJOR role in the Super Bowl runs. I hope we get to see his name on the Wall of Fame someday soon.

     

  7. Just to be clear, I don’t think he’s a jerk at all. I think he’s a big ole teddy bear of a fun loving guy who just isn’t that much into football anymore. I sincerely hope he can return to form and that the DC in Jax is another Schwartz for him. I just doubt it very much at this point.

    I've met him before and he's not a jerk by any means. He was very friendly and down to earth. But that doesn't win football games and the guy clearly does not have a burning desire to play football at the highest level he is capable of right now. Sometimes it is tough to hear the personal attacks on Dareus because he really is a good dude as a human being but it was absolutely time for the Bills to cut ties and move on from him

  8. Keep fighting brother. Although different circumstances I had been battling pretty severe depression for a few years and it is TOUGH. No way to sugarcoat it but everyday is a battle to get through but you never know when your luck and life can turn around. For the first time in years I am feeling really good about my life so I guess the point I am trying to make is things can turn around no matter how dark they may seem right now.
