I can’t really answer, since my perfect season is a blend. I don’t know if one is “better” than the other, but they are certainly different. In a perfect world, I’d love to get to one home game (preferably the opener) and travel to one road game. I don’t live in WNY any more, so I’m not sure where I’d stand on having seasons. I think the 8-10 games would probably be more than I’d want.
But then, I’m an old fart.... If I had to choose every game at the stadium, or every game on the couch, I’d probably pick the couch. That makes me a little sad.
Good answer. After I made the poll I realized I couldn't pick one over the other either because I also like both experiences. In my 20's it was definitely going to the stadium but in my 30's now there are a TON of things I appreciate about the at home experience. I mean going to the stadium is always an awesome experience but there are so many little things that factor into it as you get older(all the additional expenses, parking, tailgating supplies, gas, concessions, etc.) the fact that it eats up your whole day, feeling like dog ***** at work on Monday, missing out on a lot of the action because you got stuck in a 20 minute bathroom line, etc.

I'm good. Watched all 4 of the playoff games this weekend. I like football but after watching a marathon of games I am usually a little burned out. But then as the week goes on my anticipation for the next set of games will start growing lol.

The thread about season ticket renewal gave me the idea to start a debate about which experience you like better and why. There are pro's and con's to both but just curious to see where the majority on here stand...

As of right now I think I am dropping out. I'm getting older and my crew has dwindled over the years and I'm finally at the point where attending every home game of the season and making all day affairs out of each game is just exhausting and I can't get any money back for the games I don't go to. Then there's the financial aspect because I already do a yearly Bills road game which is a lot of fun. I also plan on doing a Bills man cave in my basement which I'm excited for and I'm sure I will still go to some home games. So yes I do plan on stepping away from being a season ticket holder but it does not reflect how I feel the direction of the team is going. I'm just burned out on being a season ticket holder but I am really looking forward to hosting some fun Bills home parties once I build my Bills room. I would've loved to keep my seasons if I could afford to eat the loss on the games I don't go to(which has turned into half of them) but finances are a little bit tight and I don't want to give up doing the annual road trip game because of how much fun that always is.

These stories never get old. I enjoyed reading each and every one of them. Happy 26th Comeback Game!
Never Give Up!

This kid has heart and guts. You can't argue that. I really hope Beane is capable of bringing in legit weapons and seeing what Allen can really do with some firepower around him.

Didn't get to watch this game...just saw that the Blues scored 3 pretty quickly in the 2nd...what happened? Seems like Hutton isn't playing very well right now?
He did let in some bad goals but the entire team played awful in the 2nd and pretty lackluster in general for the entire game. Lack of production from the 2nd and 3rd lines is killing them right now.

That was much cooler than I was expecting.

Could be Christmas specials such as the Grinch or Frosty etc or Christmas episodes of regular tv shows...Could be all-time favorites or favorites of yours when you were a kid..Let's hear em

From my understanding, talking to parents with teens....the cool thing anymore is not being a bad kid or doing bad things. The cool thing now is being a good kid and doing good things.
Is this true or just an exaggerated perception? It's not a bad thing at all..but it just sounds so foreign to me when I think back to how things were when I was in school.

I don't remember how old I was, but our son learned about "the act of mating" from watching Animal Planet when he was pretty young.
One day, when he was about 9 or so, we were driving down the highway with him in the back seat. Out of the blue, he asked how a human egg was fertilized - specifically, how the sperm and egg got together. I said, "You've seen animals mating on TV; it's similar with humans, but without the growling, clawing, and biting."
My wife's jaw dropped as she looked at me incredulously. Then I whispered, so only she could hear me, "Usually." ?

I'll be rocking my Bills ugly Christmas Sweater on Sunday but a traditional Red sweater on Christmas Day

Growing up every year during the day time on Christmas Eve we went to a family(including extended family) party for my Mom's best friend and there was a relative there that gave me one of those giant Popcorn Tins full of Caramel Popcorn every year...I hate Caramel Popcorn. This was during the childhood years where Christmas gifts were supposed to be fun and exciting and kick ass toys, I just always remember hating getting those damn popcorn tins every year.

This has to be a thing that is going the wayside
who buys playboys or hustlers anymore lmaooo
That was a right of passage as a young pre-teenager back in the day stumbling upon your Dad or Uncle's stash
That and getting together with a bunch of your buddies and staying the night at someone's house and watching all the soft core HBO/Cinemax skin movies. A true male bonding experience during elementary school. Very simple but fun time in life!

I was the oldest so I had to pretend to still believe for a couple years even when I knew what the deal was. Truth is I didn't want to believe that Santa wasn't real, that is probably the first real coming of age thing you experience in your life. Christmas loses some of the magic at that point but I had no problem playing along for my younger brother's sake and I can remember being pissed when he eventually found out about it from his buddy but for whatever reason I really tried to cling on to childhood for as long as possible. Didn't care for the middle school years much at all because I hadn't come out of my shell yet and missed the true childhood fun of Elementary School. Luckily I was able to grow out of that and enjoyed the fruits of high school life

Sports were best when you were 11
Thank goodness that was 1977-78 for me, those were all time great champions
That's 100% Accurate

The NFL was a million times more fun in the 90's
Bittersweet feelings...sucks that era is long gone but forever grateful I grew up then and got to experience it.

None of Jim or Thurman or Andre were elite, but very very good and meshed perfectly
Bruce was elite
Thurman Thomas was absolutely elite...1991 NFL MVP, Led NFL in total yards from scrimmage 4 years in a row, was considered Top 3 RB in his era along with Emmitt and Barry. I can see at least a debate over Jim and Andre but you cannot tell me that Thurman wasn't considered an elite RB during his playing days...hell to this day!

Even though they looked really bad today, they also looked really good in just their last game they played against Toronto which is one of the top teams in the NHL. From what I have been reading on social media etc. they is way too much over analyzing going on right now. We are still a super young team and we knew there were going to be some bumps in the road but we are still heading in a great direction. Not worried at all.

I have season tickets but I decided to skip the game and watched it over at my parents house with family. I instantly regretted not going once I realized how special of a game it was going to be. I was at the 8-0 Blizzard game in Cleveland in 07 though so I'll always have that.

Finally had a chance to flip through the catalog. Wish I wasn't broke, there were some great items that would have been cool to purchase for my man cave!

The Sabres looked flat last night. But I'm not worried about it. I think they were exhausted from going toe to toe with Tampa the night before in a very intense game. They will be fine.

Spongebob was after my time but I have always said that was the one kids cartoon that I'm sure I would've loved to watch as a youngster. I have a kid brother 13 years younger than me and he grew up on Spongebob. Seemed like the one good cartoon for kids who grew up post 90's. RIP

Had the Bengals playing the Jaguars in the AFC championship, did ya?...?
Haha to be fair, I wasn't one of those guys sold on the Jags this year! I knew they didn't have the offense, but I also didn't expect them to be this bad(but I'm not complaining)
Cincy on the other hand I thought was pretty well rounded on both sides of the ball
