Nope, I was not a bandwagon fan. I was a huge fan of Thurman Thomas back to his days with OSU. He pretty much was my idol when I was younger. There were a few years in my life that I was heavily involved in bad stuff, I don't really remember any football until the late 90's. I was a teenager, and I was partying too much to worry about football.
I am a Nashville native, so when we got a team, of course I really had nothing tying me to the Bills anymore. Almost all of their great players were gone. Thurman Thomas (which deserves to be in the HOF), went to stinking Miami.
So how could be be a fan since 87? Did you come out of your momma's belly watching football?
Living in Tennessee pre internet era and during my teenager years, when the Bills were struggling, I had no way of even keeping up with them. They only got maybe one game a year here televised.
