Owf71 Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Good idea of what the RALPH is gonna look like this Sunday after the game...... Who's with me
KollegeStudnet Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) IF the Bills...end 'the streak' and beat New England...after the game...could it be similar to the famous 1980's Phins game! I'm looking to be present at this game...as I was for the Phin's game and Jets OT 11/20/88 game...when the posts came down! granted both games clinched the AFC East crown, but does this game of defeating New England and going 3-0, push us to a point of fandamonium? GO BILLS! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eX27Wq2ob6c&feature=results_video&playnext=1&list=PL253E8E4F7FD39D40 Edited September 19, 2011 by KollegeStudnet
ETD66SS Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 That would be stupid, and make Bills fans and WNY look really lame.
Captain Hindsight Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 That would be stupid, and make Bills fans and WNY look really lame. Why? If anything it shows the true passion from the fans
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I agree if we end the streak the fans should go out onto the field it was well warranted in 1980 to end the oh for the 70s and is just as deserving today. Lets go Buffalo and lets rock the Ralph
Jauronimo Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Because you don't rip the posts down week 3 of the season. Maybe AFC championship vs. the Patsies, maybe. Storming the field/court doesn't mean the same thing now that its premeditated before every other college hoops game. With heightened security, people getting tasered, nutjobs mingling with players, it would all end very badly. Society has changed, and I don't think we will see any truly organic moments like that again.
It's in My Blood Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 That would be stupid, and make Bills fans and WNY look really lame. I kinda agree with you. While it would show the immense passion that fans have for the Bills, it kinda makes us look like losers. If it was a playoff clinching game, then Hell yea , but a early season divisional game against NE , not warranted.

GO BILLS! Your date is a bit off. The video is from Dec. 23, 1990. I was at the game and remember it distinctly.
cowtippur Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I think it shows just how one sided this "rivalry" is. Do you think Pats fans would storm the field after beating us? Judging from the years of abuse, no. I think this is still a proud franchise we root for and part of that is that we as fans act as though we have been here before. Ask any number of players around the league, Buffalo is known for great fans. I don't think storming the field is an indication of that.
dpberr Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Maguire probably hasn't called an NFL game in at least five years. He's still alive though and in broadcasting...just not NFL games.
Dave_In_Norfolk Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Whatever happened to Roosevelt Leaks?
bananathumb Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Was there. End zone. Couldn't believe pro football fans would climb, rock, then pull down goal posts. It was awesome. If we win, DO IT!

If we beat New England that's great, but ripping the goal posts down might be a little too early in the season.
DrDawkinstein Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 That would be stupid, and make Bills fans and WNY look really lame. I like the idea of storming the field, but agree that to do so this early in the season is pretty lame. WHEN we clinch the AFC East, then we can run out on the field.
dayman Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 IDK I think it's lame as hell to this but Bills fans should anyway. Our situation justifies it. If other people don't get it, so what.
LabattBlue Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) When was the last time fans ran onto the field after any NFL game? Seems like it hasn't happened in a long long time. More security around the perimeter of the field? Edited September 19, 2011 by LabattBlue
K-9 Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Like Marv used to say, "Act like you've been there." Beating NE on Sunday doesn't win us anything. Beating Miami in 1980 was an entirely different animal. GO BILLS!!!
ThurmasThoman Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 i live in new england. for the love of god, please DONT storm the field if we win. you think i want to go to work on monday and hear about how you jabronis got liqoured up and ran on the field to celebrate our THRIRD win of the season. it's a different day and age. everyone on every network has a take on everything that happens in every game on every day. bills players would have to answer questions about it for the rest of the season. not to mention how PC this country is. it could literally lead to sweeping NFL rule changes - see the palace at auburn hills brawl. imagine if someone threw a bottle at brady at field level. best case scenario - we win, storm the field, and look like complete tools on a nation wide scale for tearing down goal posts after our 3rd win. worst case scenario - we win, storm the field, and NFL tightens security league wide, alcohol is banned at the stadium for a year or god only knows what in this day and age. maybe if we win the afc championship, but christ almighty. talk about embarassing. pats win the division every year. if you guys rip out goal posts because we beat them at home, it would just be pathetic. browns beat them last year at home, their more down trodden than us. didn't see them ripping out goal posts.
