Some folks here aren't a fan but I've always loved Lynch & glad he was able to get a ring.

Absolutely LOVED Lynch and was sorry to see him go.  I think he's been great for the NFL and love that he's still getting endorsements in retirement.

Look both ways before crossing the street this weekend boys and girls.

Will be interesting to see how the crowd reacts.

I hope the fans pelt him with Skittles.

Lynch is an NFL legend who played for the Bills, but he's not a Bills legend.  Thus, although I like what Lynch has "matured" into, I don't see him being the right guy for this kind of honor.  In Seattle, yes, in Buffalo no.  That said, I'm most interested in what goes in during the 60 minutes of the game and don't expend too much mental energy on fluff stuff like this.  The coaches and players can focus on the Colts and the marketing department can focus on Marshawn Lynch.

He is a legend.  He didn't draft Spiller and trade himself for a bag of bagels.  Bills Mafia started/ coined Beastmode.  He will be called that the remainder of his life.  I hope he gets a big welcome.  Its where it all started.

Meh. I’d hardly call him a Bill, nor a legend here. He wanted out of Buffalo.

 

his legend status came while playing for the Seahawks. Fred was a better RB than him in Buffalo.

Actually, Lynch himself came up with Beastmode

In an aggressive way or playful way? I’m for the former

Dude Is a fringe Hall of Famer.  Started in Buffalo.  Got named Beastmode in Buffalo.  During that time he was the best player to come through.

The strangest part of this is Lynch hated his time in Buffalo.  Surprised he even agreed to do it.

Yeah I agree. He’s much more a Seahawk than a Bill and will retire with Seattle if he hasn’t already.

Mods, merge this with the other topic that is this same topic. (I looked, didn't see the other one. too much, oh never mind...)

[Rc2catch]

I don’t think his ties to buffalo are worth mentioning. He wasn’t a legend here outside off the field stuff. Almost all fans who aren’t Bills fans don’t even remember he played here a short time

It can be as playful as Bills fans want it to be.

 

If there were a lot of Skittles scattered on the ground, and Lynch were to slip and fall on his ass, I would find it all in good humor.

[thenorthremembers]

Must be running out of legends to bring in.  Guy played here less than 3 years.

He’s only there because they are paying him 

😆

too irrelevant?

I was surprised as well, I thought he would never want to come back but then again nearly a 100% new regime.
