Saxum Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) Quote from Josh Allen I agree with: Steve Tasker belongs in Hall of Fame. He is one of the great special team players of all time. Quote from Josh Allen I disagree with on Bills community: every year it doesn't matter how great or how bad this was the previous year. This year is our year. There are so many Bills watchers (cannot call them fans) who are sour each and every year you wonder why Bills stay in WNY. Better to try a new city with a fresh start.

I think that it Ralph Wilson did not make it difficult to leave Buffalo they would have. NFL would have lost some fans but gotten new wealthier ones which is more important to them. NFL has shown with St Louis they are willing to stack the deck. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you live in WNY, or are you just going off of this place? This is a place to vent for some behind the anonymity of a keyboard. This isn't reality. Lighten up.

EasternOHBillsFan Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) It's very interesting that he brought up farming... I watched this video last month, and it explains in great detail why Wyoming is much less populated than Colorado, and also why there is a lot less land for farms (I know Josh is from California, FYI). Just informational... I love these sort of historical videos. Edited June 20, 2023 by EasternOHBillsFan 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the best interviewer. I've often wondered if Josh and his dad ever drive around the farms just outside of Buffalo, especially the stone fruit orchards in Niagara County, and think about opening a new east coast branch of the Allen farming empire? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WY has much more harsh climate, the big industries have been hammered by Gov. regulation and the people generally don’t want progressive change (going off friends and family opinion from across the state). CO on the other hand is in the process of pimping out state lands and becoming CA East. Both have beautiful country, wildlife but aside from western slope CO, a vast difference of life style.

skibum Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 That's cool! I work in the vegetable business and have met a few folks in my travels to CA who know the Allens, and always speak highly of the family. Personally, I think they may be late to the party with pistachios - everyone's growing them now, there seems to be a glut on the market, and the prices are diving. But I hope it works out for them! And I hope they have reliable access to water. It's scary talking to growers out there. They just keep drilling deeper and deeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He built his own stadium in a better town. The Bill stayed because their owner knew he would get a publicly funded new stadium.

Eh, I've met my share of bills fans who throw the team under the bus at the first indication of trouble. You are right, most of the time it is just venting but its difficult to watch a game when someone becomes hypercritical at the first sign of adversity. For them either we stomp every opponent or it means we suck. To each their own in their fandom though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
