2023 Buffalo Bandits

[Buffalo Super Fan]

The Buffalo Bandits can be NLL World Champions in three days is anyone awake on this message board? Does anyone care? By no topic on this message board unfortunately it looks like the answer is no. As a Buffalo sports fan for 49 years and counting this is what it’s all about. Not chasing some fantasyland free agents, tailgating parking lots, goofy PSL’s or tanking but winning championships for Buffalo. Three days the Buffalo Bandits can bring home championship number five one for the thumb for our Buffalo Bandits fans which is what it’s all about Buffalo winning championships in sports being the best in my opinion. Go Bandits! Let’s Go Buffalo

But you do realize it’s a niche niche sport right?

There's a thread on the Sabres' forum discussing it big time Buffalo sports' fan. Folks who say they are leaving for good never leave . . .

So when you say “for good …”

You can check out any time but you can never leave

He is leaving for good, until tomorrow.

How could a “true Buffalo sports fan” not talk about the Stallions or Destroyers? 
 

You’re a poser!!

I remember Nixon's "you won't have Dick Nixon to kick around anymore" speech, post 1962 California governor race.  I felt sorry for Mr. Nixon. 🤨

I was at the championship finale last year. It was painful to watch them lose especially in Bandit land.

Bandits had to put Josh Byrne, one of their best forwards, on IR today.  That’s gonna hurt.  Hoping for a packed arena tonight.  LGO Bandits!!!

Screw you right in the ear with your niche niche sport comment.  😂

And it likely never will and that’s okay with me.  Those who can’t appreciate the sheer beauty and physicality of the sport don’t deserve it anyway. 🤷🏾‍♂️

I can agree 

 

it’s a beautifully violent sport … fast paced … high energy … physical 

 

Most of pansy ass America wouldn’t be ready for it

Can’t speak for others, but no, I don’t care at all.

 

I’ve never been able to get into minor league sports. Just knowing that they are the “not good enough” players ruins it for me.

 

Edit: oh wait, the Bandits are lacrosse? I got them mixed up with the Bisons. That’s even worse lol. Lacrosse is on the same level as high-school curling, in my book.

Bandits just won 13 - 12. Intense last few minutes. Held onto a narrow lead after a second half run of goals. It's a great sport.

I’m not sure what it says about someone who “doesn’t care” enough to specifically and intentionally enter an OTW thread with a clear topic said person “doesn’t care” about so that said person can take a dump on said topic.

 

Anybody have a good description of such a person?

Looks like G2 is on ESPN2 Monday at 4. 
 

Waiting for @Einstein to stop by and tell us how he won’t be watching because he doesn’t care.

That's correct. Apparently if it goes to a third game, you'll need ESPN plus to watch it. Hopefully the Bandits close it out on the road.

D1 field natty at 1:00 and NLL finals game 2 at 4:00.  Gonna be a good day for fans who care at all about minor league sports such as lacrosse and HS curling!

I've lived in Virginia most of my life and watched the UVA and Notre Dame game yesterday.  I like Lacrosse much better than basketball.  I'll definitely watch the Bandits game tomorrow.
