hondo in seattle Posted October 29, 2020 Posted October 29, 2020 Good luck to you. I once watched a Bills-Raiders game with a friend who was a Raiders fan. It kind of sucked because I couldn't celebrate with my usual passion & enthusiasm. I didn't want to be a jerk and add to his sorrows. To take the sting off the Raiders loss, I acted like I didn't care all that much and commiserated with him. I'm not a super-animated guy in my normal life but I am during Bills games. So I'd rather watch a game with Bills strangers (in a sports bar, for example) than with friends who are fans of the opposing team.

He’s a good friend (despite his fandom) who admits he is now also a Bucs fan but definitely still pulls for the Pats***. He played football for BC back in the 80s so he gets it honestly. He gives me s-h-I-t about the Bills but it is all in fun, and he knows we have the better team this year. It will be a good time because he has a great covered back porch with an outdoor kitchen so we’ll be (a) safely distanced and (b) have a lot of good food and drink. It won’t be a big crowd, just us and our wives. I realize the potential to embarrass myself exists but I’m trying to be a mature fan. Comments? Remember to place a chair in a small pool so that you may bath in their tears. 17 hours ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: I actually have a really really good friend who's a Pats fan. He's 100% stand up dude. The kind of guy you can trust, any time, any where. He's also a genuine Pats fan who can name players and coaches going back into the 70s. We all have our flaws. His flaw is that he is a Pats fan.😁 Edited October 29, 2020 by formerlyofCtown

He and I even disagreed with whether the Gronk elbow drop was terrible. If he thought the Gronk elbow wasn’t a flag then I would cut him off. I wouldn’t even waste my time trying, I would just tell my wife I’ll see him on Holidays and 2 days of your choosing but that’s it.
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted October 29, 2020 Posted October 29, 2020 I’ve had a Patriots fan bump into me at a bar while he was texting and he told me to look where I was going. I wasn’t even moving, I was leaning against a table with a pool stick in my hand.

He has since agreed Gronk was dirty but I really don't have a choice, he is a good grandfather but we do not watch football together anymore. 1
