If LA ever does STEAL a team from another City, I hope you get season tickets. I hope you become EMOTIONALLY invested with your HOME Team & become a REAL fan...........................then after 12-16 years after being a REAL FAN all those years & the team is playing POORLY & the GLITZ of the Stadium built over a decade ago has WORN OFF & attending games is no longer the TRENDY thing to do in LA, I HOPE they MOVE the team as they have done before in LA. Only then will you understand what it means to be a REAL Fan of a team.

You just don't get it. If the Bills were to move to Toronto or LA, they would NO LONGER be the BUFFALO BILLS so you would NOT be a BILLS fan for life. You would be a fan of a team that at one time WAS the Bills.

There is NO CONVERTING. If the Bills ever leave Buffalo, I would have no more reason to root for them. My new favorite team would be the team that played against them every week. If the Bills moved to LA with the Bills Name & Colors, it would be even WORSE than if they became the LA Thugs or whatever. If the name & legacy stayed in Buffalo, there would be a REMOTE possibility of getting another team in the future that could carry on the tradition like they did in Cleveland. Real Fans of a TEAM root for the CITY as much as the Team. So it would HURT even more that the LA team would be called the Bills (I Doubt that would ever happen).

Buffalo is one of only 32 jobs available in the entire Country, that makes it very attractive.

The KEY word of this post is WERE, as in past tense, meaning that they NO LONGER exist. REAL fans of a team want that team to remain in the City they are from, they do not want them moving anywhere, even to the City they now reside in. Real fans LOVE their team. If you had a woman you loved & she left you for a richer better looking guy, you would always love the memories of you & her together, but to still be in love with her would be pointless & only cause you further heartbreak.

He didn't just act as a reporter, he said he would LOVE to see the Bills move to LA. That is a personal choice, not reporting. It does not matter if it is LA or Jax or ANY other city, if the Bills ever leave Buffalo, they will NO LONGER be the Buffalo Bills. The Buffalo Bills would cease to exist. The Tennessee Titans are NOT the Houston Oilers. The Baltimore Ravens are NOT the Cleveland Browns, nor are they the Baltimore Colts. The Browns still exist because the legacy name & Colors remained in Cleveland. Cleveland still has the Browns, but the new Cleveland Browns are an expansion team that SUCKS while the Baltimore Ravens won a Super Bowl. Even so, Browns fans root for the CRAPPY expansion team they have NOT the Baltimore Ravens. You never lived in Buffalo or left when you were very young to not understand the big deal. I would bet that 99% of Bills fans Would not root for them if they left Buffalo. As I said about the Buffalo Braves, THEY NO LONGER EXIST. If you want an NFL team, MOVE to an NFL City or wait (feel free to hold your breath while waiting) & a team will come to LA eventually, just know that the fans of that team will be HEARTBROKEN when their team MOVES. To call yourself a fan of a team & then WANT that team to move is ASININE!!!

You call yourself a HUGE Bills fan? You are anything BUT a fan of the Bills!!! NO FAN of the Buffalo Bills wants them to leave Buffalo. You are too STUPID to understand that if the Bills left Buffalo, the Buffalo Bills would no longer exist, the same way the Buffalo Braves no longer exist.

I remember watching that game at the Cabanna Inn in Sarasota Fla. One of the 1st Bills Sports Bars down here, back when the Dishes were HUGE & they had to search for the game.

Dallas is mentioned because they face some GOOD teams in December & everyone expects Romo & the Boys to fold their tents in Dec. as they do evey year. Adam Schefter also said he did not think Shannahan would go to Buffalo.

But they don't have Pioli. Hopefully it will be like losing Polian.

The Pats* no longer strike fear in their opponents. I loved seeing the smirk Brady always had wiped off his face last night.

The refs didn't favor the Bills, they let the players play. They could have made calls against BOTH teams but ignored the petty stuff as they should. Davis could have been flagged for contact beyond the 5 Yds on the same play.

Why don't you go root for the Pats*? You are NOT a BUFFALO BILLS fan!!!!

No doubt about double secret probation. This looks like the begining of the end for the Pats*. They can still beat the lesser teams, but can't hang with the Big Boys anymore.

If you are talking about the Sunday Ticket, the NFL wants LIMITED exposure of that because of the Network Contracts. The day the Ticket is available to everyone with Cable & Sat. will be the day there is no more FREE Games on the Networks.

It has NOTHING to do with losing Empire. Living in Fla, I never got Empire & my bill did not go up with NFL Network. Why can Direct TV pay for it without charging their customers extra & cable can't? Sounds to me like Cable wants to MAKE money on it.

Games on the local channels are blacked out on the ticket. I think a game the wasn't a sell out would be on the ticket in Syracuse & Rochester.

Direct TV has it on their BASIC package, it has NOTHING to do with the ticket. I said if a bar has the ticket it will also have NFL Network because I knew the bar would have Direct TV.

True, but if they have the ticket they will also get NFL Network.

Maybe it isn't a group of failures but the fact that they were playing for a FAILURE of a HC. They probably will miss the playoffs, but at least we can think of them as spoilers now under Fewell. Maybe they can keep another team or two out of the playoffs.

Good post. The only thing I would add is that Ryan was making that kick in Pregame so Perry & Ryan KNEW it was makeable.

MOST games are decided on a handful of plays. The Bills made those plays therefore they won.

Fewell could coach the Defense as Dungy did in Indy & AVP called a good game yesterday. Maybe with the rest of the season for experience & the offseason to prepare he might be a good OC.

Fixed it for you.

In Fla, I get Sunshine Sports & Fox sports on Direct TV. You can't get the local sports channel from Direct TV?
