I commend the fans who follow this team with no Buffalo ties whatsoever...that's on a level I'm not able to comprehend. For me, it's always been about the city...the team represents the city. I could never follow a team not based in Buffalo. Living in Maryland now, I didn't give a rat's ass that the Ravens won a Super Bowl...they may as well have been the Shanghai Ravens.
When Bob Irsay was playing tricks with the Colts fans back in the late 70s and early 80s, the fanbase in Baltimore jumped ship quick...Bills fans have either been much more loyal, stubborn, or a combination.
I think a lot of people from Buffalo take it with a lot of pride that there are fans of the team with no connection to WNY or southern Ontario...in fact we are pleasantly shocked by it.
