PearlHowardman Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 I'll tell you what I did to help: I wrote on a 8.5 X 11.5 piece of paper THE BUFFALO BILLS NEED NEW OWNERSHIP. I took the piece of paper and hung it on my refrigerator. I did this in mid-September. I read it at a conscious level whenever I intentionally look at it. I read it at a subconscious level whenever my eyes happen to glance at it. It helps - a lot.
marauderswr80 Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 They all hurt my man....they all hurt!
Bills of Boston Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Living in Boston really builds character with losses like this.

PromoTheRobot Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 (edited) Emotional pain inflicted by outside people and circumstances only hurt because we let it hurt us. Reflect and dial things back a bit. PTR Edited November 13, 2012 by PromoTheRobot
BillsFanNC Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 I gotta say, it just doesn't hurt anymore for me. I don't know if it's just that I've grown up and have other more important and fulfilling interests or if the joke that this franchise has become has finally sucked the last ounce of passion out of me. It's probably a combination of the two, but either way I'm just not affected by what this team fails to accomplish on Sunday's anymore.

The only thing the that hurts is usually my liver the next day.
Bills of Boston Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Well right, no one is saying its THE #1 issue or pain any of us deal with, but on a Bills message board talking about the Bills causing "devastation" is in its rightful place.
Marv's Neighbor Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Scar tissue will eventually dull the pain. Also a lot more skepticism at the beginning of each season will allow you to accept this more. It's not exactly a new feeling!
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 I turned the game off after fred fumbled on the 1 yard line. I've seen enough bills games in my lifetime to know that the game was, for all intents and purposes, over at that point. I was proven correct. And i got to enjoy a nice dinner with my kid to boot! win/win

MDH Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 I'm surprised the Bills didn't score a TD...then miss the extra point and lose in overtime.
