JMF2006 Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 The Bills Mafia started a good tradition of giving when Andy and Boyd ended the drought Its great to see other fan bases taking up the cause. 4 8 Quote
Mark92 Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 It's a great cause and it's always a great thing when children's hospitals get money. I just don't see the reasoning here. 🤷. Good for the Giants fans and even better for the children. 2 Quote

Did you not read the part about their new GM and HC (both of which they have desperately wanted to replace) coming from Buffalo? I understand we didn't cause their old ones to get fired, but as the Fresh Prince would say, "they're a little stupid, but they've got the spirit". 23 minutes ago, JMF2006 said: The Bills Mafia started a good tradition of giving when Andy and Boyd ended the drought Its great to see other fan bases taking up the cause. I think the seeds of Bills fan activism were planted with the Jauron billboard. Edited January 30, 2022 by 1ManRaid 1 Quote

Agree it’s a little odd but since anyone donating to charity is a good thing, especially for Children’s Hospital and Josh’s grandmother’s memory, no complaints really. Bills fans started this tradition and it's an amazing and classy way to show their support for things that happen in the NFL world. Do you really feel good about talking down generosity of other fan bases following our lead? That's freaking classless to me. Bills fans should take pride whenever something like this occurs. We donated to Lamar Jackson when he got injured out of that playoff game a couple years ago as a sign of respect. I believe the Chiefs fans did a similar thing because JA should have won us that game and they knew it. Yet some here tried to paint it as disrespectful. Giants fans took a good piece of our front office and coaching staff and are happily just showing their respect in a classy move. Appreciate how we've redefined Fandom for the better. 8 1 Quote
SCBills Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 Their reasoning is pretty sound, IMO. Also, very awesome of them! They know that without JA, it’s not likely they are hiring Schoen/Daboll. That’s not to denigrate those two, but to simply acknowledge how things work in the NFL. Due to that, they are donating to Josh Allen’s charity. 1 Quote

Giants fans are hopeful and grateful that their new hires will put them on the same path. Quote

It is nothing but passing on of Good will the way I see it. The kids won't care if the money came from a meadowlands team. Im surprised that they would do it but Im PROUD of the mafia for the inspiration. :-)))) 1 1 Quote
