That's just not the kind of person I am. I would applaud -- and maybe stand if it was an opposition team's star player -- as the player was taken from the field in the cart just like I would a Bills player. Thank you, great post that I hope speaks for the majority of fans! 9 minutes ago, Kirby Jackson said: We would cheer and anyone that says differently is lying. Everyone wouldn’t cheer but there is a high enough BAC in that stadium to head that route. I would not and trust me, I am not lying! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's a fan in Buffalo that would not have cheered if Gronk was injured on the next play. So yes! No! Gronk was not only wrong, he was lacking in ethics and professionalism. Just because someone is lacking don't make it right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 1 hour ago, ricojes said: I don't think it's fair to compare the NBA and NFL on this topic. If there is a huge hit in a game, the crowd will roar. That's the same for any team's fans. Now if that player is a key player on the opposing team, and does not get up immediately, there will be an immediate "yes! This greatly increases our chances of winning" thought from most. How 60 or 70,000 people sound during that moment can be interpreted as cheering for the injury rather than cheering for the Bills chances of winning. And there are some that will cheer the injury, especially if it were Brady. How long the "cheer" lasts is the key. For the KD instance, it's completely different IMO. The fans knew he was coming off a significant injury and was off to a hot start in the game. When he went down, there wasn't just cheering, many fans were waving goodbye and shouting at KD. Well, in a NBA context, if the Buffalo Braves were one win away from an NBA Title and Jabbar blew out his Achilles, I’d be thrilled! juss sayin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd cheer Gronk visiting on sideline during game and having a player chased off field hitting him with him with helmet destroying Gronk's knee. Does this count since he has retired?

What's your age limits for laughing? I think anyone ages 14-60 is appropriate. Anyone above 60, I hope they aren't seriously hurt. Under 2...it's cute. 3-13....eh.

aristocrat Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 i cheered at the Rj Umbereger hit put on by Bryan Cambell. I cheered a hit Aaron Williams put on a Titans wr a few years back at the end of a game. Both I celebrated in the moment and then you realize oh man he''s hurt yikes.

thebandit27 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I was at the 2000 home game against the Chargers when our fans cheered our own QB getting hurt. Let's not act like we're above cheering injuries in Buffalo. I was utterly disgusted then, and I'd be utterly disgusted in the future. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasons1992 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I distinctly remember the 1994 AFC Championship game, when Montana got his arm hurt. The camera was on him trying to throw right after that on the sidelines, and when he couldn't really throw and grabbed his arm and winced, the Rich Stadium crowd most definitely cheered this outcome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Brady wasn’t injured on that play. Got right back up and ended up beating us in OT. If anything, it pissed him off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He fostered the relationship he had with the Bills fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But cheering retribution for a cheap shot that concussed your own teammate is a completely different animal than cheering an injury to an opponent that occurs during the normal course of a game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBob Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 2 hours ago, tomur67 said: I hate to admit this , but I was at the game when Rob Johnson got hurt and thousands of Buffalo fans cheered when Doug Flutie ran out to finish the game. I'm sure most were Flutie fans and wanted him to be starting anyway, but it was awful that they were cheering when he ran out onto the field and Johnson was being helped off the field. Very disturbing! They were cheering BEFORE Flutie ran onto the field. It was sickneing to me watching Bills fans taunting him and cheering on national televison because one of our own was concussed so hard that he could barely get up. It was the first and only time I had ever felt ashamed to be a BIlls fan. I had to turn the TV off. I never do that when watching a Bills game, but that day I did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
