halijack Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I've always been a fan of the teams my dad roots for in sports (NHL, MLB, NFL) I have a 2 year old myself and got him all kinds of Bills gear and already try to get him watching games with me. After sleeping on it last night, I honestly feel it would be cruel to have my son suffer through the agony of being a Bills fan. I feel I should set him free and let him choose his own team (except the pats). Does anyone else feel this way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PearlHowardman Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Suggestion: Depends on where you live. I live in Syracuse so I follow the SU Orange and college football in general. Try to point your son in the direction of your local college FB team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other teams I would add to your list: Miami, Jets & Cowboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel I should set him free and let him choose his own team (except the pats). Does anyone else feel this way? no. I have various friends that are Yankee fans and Pats fans, etc... I dont really envy them at all. In a way they are really missing out. The real thrill of the chase is gone. Games arent really meaningful until the Conference Championships. Bills fan is exceptionally bad because there is just no good things at all. I am thinking though if we are blessed with a new local owner, the team will once again break out of its 53 year slumber. Being a Bills, Sabres, and Indians fan, I wouldnt trade it for anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Watch non Bills games as well as Bills games and let him decide who to root for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjt328 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I've just about given up on the NFL in general. The sport is becoming a sad shell of itself. I've got no confidence the Bills will ever become something. Meanwhile, the same teams win year after year. As I spend another Sunday night/Monday morning in a terrible mood (thanks to the Bills), I can't help but wonder if my time would be better spent doing something else.

GOBILLS78 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 The only team my daughters are rooting for are the Bubble Guppies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazed and Amuzed Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 lol Why would you NOT let your son chose which team he roots for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cugalabanza Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 lol Why would you NOT let your son chose which team he roots for? It's not that you don't let them choose. It's just that if it's something you share with them from a very early age and it becomes something you do together (cheering and suffering for the Bills), then it's likely to stick with them. I've had the same thoughts with my little one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrock Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Should I post a pic of my kids Thomas Thurman- 2 years old & Henry Jones (wife's maiden name is Jones)- 9 months old. Maybe when they're old enough the Bills will make a playoff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corp000085 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 My 4 year old is a bills and sabres fan now through osmosis. Heck, our first game that we watched together was the mckelvin MNF fumble disaster. That's a legacy right there!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
