PromoTheRobot Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 So the bills will lose in heartbreaking pre season fashion? Which, of course, will prove the season is doomed. But if we win it's only preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Which, of course, will prove the season is doomed. But if we win it's only preseason. Especially if EJ throws a TD against the other team's backups. Doomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buftex Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) Why don't they make preseason more fun. Make it during the day for some locations, on a Friday, at like 2pm, so you can ditch work and go catch a game? Exactly...tap into that World Cup slacker vibe! People ditch work, go out to the pub during work hours, watch on their computers at work... all for a super dull event!

CodeMonkey Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) drop the ticket prices, $5 upper bowl. $15 dollars lower bowl, first come first serve seating. for $5 you get a hotdog and drink. $15 2 beers, 2 hotdogs, and fries. What you are describing is the kids day preseason game (if you buy your tickets from a season ticket holder). And coincidentally, the game being discussed in this thread IS the kids day game Edited July 25, 2014 by CodeMonkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanNC Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I'm thinking about driving over to the game myself -- perhaps dragging either my wife or dad with me. Probably won't make a decision until that week though. I'll be there. Don't know how yet, but the tickets will be free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 yeeeeehaaw. Love it. This will be the game considered the "dress rehearsal", correct? Where the starters play the most? Also the first game in our reno stadium and MW19 gets to play his former team. That's correct. Interesting that they are playing so early in the day for this game.

YoloinOhio Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 That's correct. Interesting that they are playing so early in the day for this game. It is the perfect time for a Kids day game. After naptime, before bedtime. Night games are really tough to take kids to, at least young ones. Mine turn into pumpkins after a certain time.

ThurmasThoman Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I'm actually taking the plunge this year and buying the 20$ preseason package from NFL.com. Every year I think "what a rip-off, why would I pay 20$ to watch preseason football!" And every year, I'm sitting in front of my computer watching the espn.com gamecast of every Bills preseason game.

Best Player Available Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Which, of course, will prove the season is doomed. But if we win it's only preseason. Also, I have seen it described right on these pages like this. if we win it's awesome, everything is jelling, and were gonna kick butt this year. if we lose well it only a scrimmage and meaningless. These games don't count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's well worth the money, unless you are just somebody who has zero interest in pre-season games....I love being able to see the Bills games, live, with a good, clear feed. Like you, I wasted more than a couple Friday evenings trying to watch pre-season Bills games on-line...choppy picture, normally losing the signal a few times...$20 is a small price to pay.

K-No Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 With this being the nationally televised HOF season opener game, will starters play longer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Vader Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 With this being the nationally televised HOF season opener game, will starters play longer? Usually the starters will play for two series at the most, at this type of game. Get ready for a lot of 3rd string action next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffHead Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 With this being the nationally televised HOF season opener game, will starters play longer? No. Probably just one series and I bet you don't see a lot of the guys coming off surgery at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
