NextYearGuys Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 I'm frustrated. I'm 21 years old so I've never really seen the Bills be a good team. My dad tells me the stories of our dominant days and I've watched some old games and saw how awesome it must have been to be a fan back in the day. I want that. I'm sick of us ranging from the joke of the league to average. We have the talent. We have a new owner. We had the scheme. We were supposed to have a promising new head coach. It gave me a lot of hope. But like we always do, we squander it. We ruin the 3rd best defense in the league. We make 100000 mental errors every game and lead the league in penalties. We catch the injury bug year after year. We never ever have a 300 yard passer in a game that we win. People predict us to lose week in and week out. No one takes this team seriously. I'm sick of it. I've never been a fan of any other team in the NFL but I'm convinced that being a Bills fan is the hardest.

I've never been a fan of any other team in the NFL but I'm convinced that being a Bills fan is the hardest. I can relate. I barely remember the glory days. My fandom has been encompassed by the 15 year drought. It's frustrating, to the point where you wonder why bother. Well, we all need something to believe in. Religion, politics, etc. I choose to believe in the Bills. It's not as simple as game by game, but long term. Sure, you may question your allegiance to the team after a frustrating loss, but we all well know the following week we are right back at it, living and breathing Buffalo. Hang in there, we will succeed! (eventually)
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Lol I've been a frustrated fan for nearly twice your lifetime. Get out while you can.

Yep, Browns and Lions may be close but until another team loses 4 straight Super Bowls and has 15 (16?) straight seasons out of the playoffs, I agree it's toughest being a Bills fan.
r00tabaga Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) My son (I'm 40) asked me the other day if we were EVER in the playoffs. Playoffs????? We were dominant FOR A DECADE!!!! Edited December 1, 2015 by r00tabaga
finn Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Welcome to the club, kid. Get out if you can, but we understand if you can't, 'cause we can't either. The Bills suck, and our curse is to be loyal to them. I just hope you get at least a few glory years to compensate for the grief coming your way.

Not happening. Maybe some day we'll get to the top.
fansince88 Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 My 21st year was marked by two words: "Wide Right." Stop your whining, kid. Yes! I was 20! And I've seen it every year since that heart breaking loss!
Reed83HOF Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 My 21st year was marked by two words: "Wide Right." Stop your whining, kid. That was on my 14th birthday...
Storm Front Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 The first time I ever watched a Bills game there were fans wearing paper bags on their heads...shoulda told me something.
enlightener Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 maybe if we stop hiring losers(williams,malarky), idiots(philips, ryan), aholes(mauron), and milqtoasts (jauron) as head coaches, we might actually win again.
May Day 10 Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Team has won one playoff game in the nfl without jim kelly.
BuffaloMatt Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) The Bills are a cursed object from the TV show Friday the 13th. Once you become a fan you are doomed. Unless you can break the curse. Let us all know if you figure out how to do that. Edited December 1, 2015 by BuffaloMatt
chaccof Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Team has won one playoff game in the nfl without jim kelly. Wow, been a fan since the mid 60's when i was a mere pup and never realized that......so you're only counting post AFL/NFL merger? I can't even think what playoff game they won without Kelly now that you mention it.....must have been in the early 80's when Chuck Knox was coach?
3rdand12 Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Lol I've been a frustrated fan for nearly twice your lifetime. Get out while you can. Hilarious!! But so true. My son (I'm 40) asked me the other day if we were EVER in the playoffs. Playoffs????? We were dominant FOR A DECADE!!!! sure they were Dad. sure they were.... The first time I ever watched a Bills game there were fans wearing paper bags on their heads...shoulda told me something. we dont listen well do we. Or its something deeper and darker. Cut the limb off to save the body NextYearsGuys. do it now. maybe if we stop hiring losers(williams,malarky), idiots(philips, ryan), aholes(mauron), and milqtoasts (jauron) as head coaches, we might actually win again. maybe...

The Bills have never been good. They are the NFL's Washington Generals. Just a punching bag to prop up the real teams. At least they're not the only ones. Same thing with the Browns, Lions and Jets.

Here's the game http://m.pfref.com/m?p=XXboxscoresXX198112270nyj.htm I guess you could include the Reich games?
