Now it looks like a comfort group for rationalization for why the bills "tried to lose o purpose" after the mania induced hot takes and crazy predictions go wrong.

DasNootz Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 By definition a fan (fanatic) is not rational. It's good to have something in your life that you can love unconditionally and be irrational about. There's more than enough other factors in day to day life that require analysis and reality based thinking. Sunday and the Bills - not one of those things for me. 1

You get so wrapped up in narratives and how plays/players make you feel in their moments of failure that you end up thinking they need to be replaced/below NFL caliber. All the while you don't take the time or energy to look around the league to see what the standard/average even is. Actually the over-zealousness is what causes both extremes. The OP used the word "objectively".....that is the thing a lot suffer from not being able to do. 1

I also accurately guessed Saturday’s score only to be met with a meh emoji. We’re a good team but all I want from the message board is objective discussions. We have such a smart fan base WAY above average, I just want us to stay grounded and let go of the dumb jock buffoonery and jock sniffing antics. I like the team building part of football the best and part of that includes less than favorable views of certain players. Whether fans like it or not, we DO have holes to fill. If not, we might as well skip the draft and free agency. I dont care. I accurately predict you are going to continue to get put in your place for calling out people that do things differently than you.

No offense, but “Jordan Phillips absolutely spinach basted Brady at the 9 yard line!” doesn’t have the same ring to it.

warrior9 Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 So this is in regards to the Milano thread where you said multiple times you aren't gushing about a player so you're catching hate, etc. The problem is, you called Milano slow and said he's a system play and he only does well because of coaching. What you're failing to realize if you can criticize any player as long as you do it objectively. Saying Milano is slow is just flat out wrong. Saying he is a product of the system is sort of weird. He covers TE's 1 on 1, he plays sideline to sideline, he's asked to do a lot. You need to actually watch him play and then come back with some sort of factual premise behind your weird dislike for him.
