Dr. K Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 An all black team ... or Sean Penn becoming owner. Don't want no uppity Toms on this plantation. Seriously. Black people riot because of inequality. Whites complain. Blacks vote in a black guy and he's Muslim, communist, and wasn't born here. Black people protest peacefully in DC and they're unamerican muslims (million man march). Black people move into the suburbs and whites move out. One black guy kneels because he has a platform blacks don't have in most sectors of American life and again whites crap on blacks. Hail all ye torch carrying bigots. No more CHIP. Thanks guys. Real love mongers. Anyway, like the guy in Brokeback mountain. Buffalo Bills "i wish i knew how to quit you." I agree.
Jauronimo Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 Relocation. If the Bills went to LA or St. Louis then I think I'd be a casual NFL fan and a Texans fan.
Augie Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 Relocation. If the Bills went to LA or St. Louis then I think I'd be a casual NFL fan and a Texans fan. I might become a casual Titans fan. Our son is there, it's a great town 3.5 hours away and a very nice place to see a game. But it would NOT be like my Bills fandom.
MiltonWaddams Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 I'm with Alphadawg. I love the city of Buffalo, and it is where my greatest football memories lie, but I'm not from Buffalo. I go to Buffalo for the games and the tailgating. I would be immensely disappointed if the team moved, as I feel as though we are as good a fanbase as exists in pro sports, but I know that I would follow them and wear my JK, Biscuit or Bruce jersey to wherever they played. Let us all hope this never occurs!
frostbitmic Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 1. Leaving western NY 2. If the Pegula's sold the team to someone I can't stand
Rubes Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 (edited) If they ever win the Super Bowl. Then I can finally quit this **** and get back to my life. Edited October 19, 2017 by Rubes
dave mcbride Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 (edited) Relocation or a purchase by Trump. If they move, theyll mean as much to me as the Kentucky Colonels, the Cleveland Barons, the San Francisco Seals, rhe Memphis Showboats, and the Miami Screaming Eagles currently do. If they ever win the Super Bowl. Then I can finally quit this **** and get back to my life. This too. If they win a SB, Im out retiring on top. Edited October 19, 2017 by dave mcbride
Fadingpain Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 For sure if they relocated I would stop following the team. How much talk do you hear these days in WNY sports circles about the Buffalo Braves? I would suggest almost none. That's because they relocated a long time ago. If the Bills ever relocated, they would become a distant memory for most as well. If they ever win the Super Bowl. Then I can finally quit this **** and get back to my life. An interesting comment. Being a Bills fan would be a LOT different for many, I think, if we won a Superbowl. We'd finally get some closure, we would know we did it, we would have our moment in the sun, and the pressure or sense of urgency to win it all in the future would instantly fade.
xRUSHx Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 Relocation from WNY. I would love for them to return to Buffalo from OP but if they leave WNY I'm done as a Bills fan.
fridge Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 The only thing the last 17 years have proven is that I am stupid, and you can't fix stupid. Fan for life, baby.
Rocky Landing Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 For me, they'd have to relocate AND change their name. I could handle a relocation (I relocated), but I wouldn't be happy about it. If they relocated and changed their name, it would be only a few seasons before any semblance of continuity was left, and they might as well be the Chargers-- which is the team I'd switch to, now being an LA resident and all. Or I'd start watching baseball, and be a Dodgers fan, instead. Baseball is a lot less stressful, after all. I'd probably live longer.
Blokestradamus Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 I highly doubt that I'd quit the Bills for a reason of their doing. As a relative outsider, I don't think relocation would prevent me from watching. Obviously, I get why it would be a huge issue for the natives but I'm not sure that I'd have the same emotional response to that news if it happened. I made no secret of the fact that signing Richie and drafting Karlos Williams made me think long and hard about aligning myself with the organisation but it turns out that I'm not as staunchly ethical as I hoped I was. Only way I stop is if I fall out of love with the game itself. The most likely scenario is that I disconnect myself once I start seeing players that I have an emotional attachment to suffering the long-term effects of playing the game. I know how it affected some fans seeing the state that Darryl Talley is in now, I assume it's about a decade away from that happening to someone that means a great deal to me.
H2o Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 If they left Buffalo they wouldn't be the Buffalo Bills anymore. Otherwise I can't see me letting go. Hell, I've been a fan through 4 SB losses and a whole lot of mediocrity in their wake over the past 30 years. No justifiable reason to change up now.
EmotionallyUnstable Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 I'm kinda there now. It's not just the Bills, but the whole NFL. They can all kneel without me, and I've been a fan since they started in '60. Yet, here you are, on a Wednesday, posting on an NFL message board about that team you quit on? Give it a rest

Gordio Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 When the Dodgers moved my old man and I wore black armbands for the whole first season they were in LA. We mourned the loss and he never watched or listened to another game (to the best of my knowledge). He passed soon after that first season and wasn't around to disown me for becoming a Yankee fan. Same with the Bills. Would morn the loss. See I would think you would of became a Mets fan. Didn't the old Dodger fans hate the Yankees so much that most of them either stayed with the Dodgers or became Mets fans? Hell if you go to Citifield now when you first come in their is a tribute to the old Dodger teams which I find kind of odd. Relocation would do it for me. I am not even that crazy about the NFL anyways anymore. I rarely watch a game that the Bills are not playing in. Back when I was younger I would watch football on Sundays all day & never missed a Monday night game. I can't remember the last time I watched a Monday night game from start to finish, had to be the Bills/Seattle last year. The league is just not that interesting to me anymore & it is clear that the league has a bunch of hidden agendas with the way certain games are officiated. (NE last week)
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 since I don't believe they relocate I would have to say when I take my last breath...
