billsgpr88 Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 After witnessing the endless collapses that all of you remember too well, I've concluded that I will not watch a single bills game unless the team is .500 or better. I've watched every game since at least the music city miracle and I've absolutely HAD IT.Call me a bandwagon fan but at this point anyone who still watches with their hopes up is just a masochist. I know there's a lot of old school bills fans that have seen it all and can tell me all about the superbowl years (I was an infant at the time), but god d@mnit this team has ripped the hearts out of the fans chests so many times that they don't deserve our loyalty. From this point on I'm not watching them until they've proven to be a winning team. I swear this franchise has lost more games that they should have won than any I've seen in ANY sport. Drafts, training camps, wild card races, all of that hope crushed over and over and over. I'm done
Leelee Phoenix Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 I don't know how one could be a fan of this team if they weren't around for the Super Bowl teams, or at least some of the 90s. They forever forced me to care about this loser team. Free yourself, for your own sanity.
mead107 Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 See ya.. we will let you back on the wagon next year.
CodeMonkey Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) I don't know how one could be a fan of this team if they weren't around for the Super Bowl teams, or at least some of the 90s. They forever forced me to care about this loser team. Free yourself, for your own sanity. The Bills have sucked for as long as my kids have been alive and they are still Bills fans. Almost certainly because of me. But they expect the Bills to suck every season, and why wouldn't they. One of my sons came home the other day with a 49'ers t-shirt though, so who knows. My oldest has a bit of a foul mouth at times. I call him on it when I hear it, but it emerged during the fumbles yesterday and I could not bring myself to scold him then Edited December 2, 2013 by CodeMonkey
JohnnyBuffalo Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 I may be done watching for the year. I am so angry right now that I don't want to give them anymore of my time. Utterly disgusting from ownership down to the field....and it all looks like it's headed to toronto....f em
Gugny Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 See ya.. we will let you back on the wagon next year. Yup. Exactly.
metzelaars_lives Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 This team is different from the 2005-2012 teams. They are pretty competitive on both sides of the ball. They just need to learn to win football games.

I cannot imagine being a fan without having benefited from the Kelly-Reed-Thurman-Bruce era.
KellyToTasker Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 I was 10 during SB 25. I've been attached to this team since that first superbowl season. I'm not giving up, ever. However, because it's been so long, I wondered yesterday what the edge of your seat stress would be like iwhen the Bills make another superbowl. Seeing what it's like when they're 4-7 and trying to keep the hope alive! I'm not going to lie.....Lots of ups and downs.
GOBILLS78 Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Can someone please explain to me what it was about this loss that set the higher-than-normal amount of fans over the edge? The team loses in heartbreaking fashion a lot. If you aren't used to it by now, I don't know what to say.
KellyToTasker Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Because....At some point.....The bleeding has to stop.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 See ya.. we will let you back on the wagon next year. Ditto Can someone please explain to me what it was about this loss that set the higher-than-normal amount of fans over the edge? The team loses in heartbreaking fashion a lot. If you aren't used to it by now, I don't know what to say. the chances of what IF went down the drain. The elimination game always hurts the most
Wacka Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 I've been a fan for 50 years. All you kids just shut up. . I'll be a fan till I die.

dib Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 The earliest game I can remember is the '64 championship game. I have been through the 0-forever losses to the Dolphins, The Miracle at Rich, and the Kelly era. Lately however watching the Bills is like getting poked in the eye with a sharp stick. Did I say lately? Maybe a decade. I may not be done forever with the Bills but I think I'm done for this year.
Just Jack Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 See ya.. we will let you back on the wagon next year. Just remember what LA said about jumping on and off the wagon (in my sig below.....)
Marv's Neighbor Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 I've stopped watching. I work on Sundays but i swear, whenever I have time to watch, if they're winning, they do something to screw it up. So in the interest of a few more wins, I won't watch again because I'm convinced that my watching is causing too many L's.
