You were confronted on your post, albeit low key, felt embarrassed because you were rightly told what you were doing was ridiculous.  Then to try and save face you put up a post minimizing what you did.  Typical human behavior.  We get it.  

Why thank you good sir, I shall take your critique into thoughtful consideration when posting my personal experiences in any future discourse in this forum.

 

 Just for my own benefit and growth as a TBD poster, would you mind just telling me what embarrassing act of mine was causing me to “try and save face” ?

 

This is fascinating, an outstanding opportunity to learn “typical human behaviour” about one’s own self without paying a single dime.

This is like the person who complains about everyone being a snowflake.

 

im very optimistic (out some good money on that). But as a Bills fan, can you blame anyone for not being nervous? All that negativity comes from love and not waiting to be hurt. Agree it’s annoying but don’t seek it out. 

Being nervous is reality. Being optimistic is a choice. I’ve been the former forever. I’m ready to change.

It’s a shame some feel the need to start threads like this. I used to do it occasionally, but I then realized that nobody is changing anyone’s mind in this forum with a few exceptions. We are who we are — and the bottom line is that none of us have any impact upon what happens on the field. At our best, we are united in hoping for a Bills Super Bowl win. At our worst, we argue over things we can’t control and try to prove we are “right” or know more than someone else. 
 

I’ll say what I always say: this is a fun team and I’m thankful to be watching a guy like Josh Allen represent our team and fan base. Only one team wins the Super Bowl each year and a lot of things have to go right to get there. 
 

Go Bills!

 

It’s our year…!!!! Get ready, everyone

One and done.

Referring to the Broncos playoff run, I presume?

There are definitely those that find irrational ways to poop on the team, because they done want their heart broken.  What’s more likely though are fans of the Cheats, Fish, and Jests, who pretend to be Bills fans to crap on our site.  That is much more prevalent.  It’s hard sometimes to discern between the two.

 

I really try to ignore them, but every once in awhile, they just annoy the heck out if me which is what they want.

I really need to see something out of our Defenses ability to stop a team with a really good running game. Some X and O adjustments from McD and Babich that prove to be effective.

But I fear that is going to be our downfall. 

I'll be routing hard for the Bills of course, but there is Trepidation

I'm concerned about our pass defense.

 

Does that me a Debbie Downer?

Damn so the D in general is our concern. Not a fan of the bend don't break style of D.. especially in the playoffs. I do hope they have some unique stuff dialed up

I am hoping the defense will come up with a new scheme that they have not shown before.

 

It's possible...right?

It's obvious Tyler Bass missed that kick on purpose.

You got McD’d!

That’d be BALTIMORE. We failed miserably the first time. 
 

But, remember how we spanked Tennessee during the Damar/Tre/Vonn/Blizzard/DET year…? That was coming off us getting whopped again by Henry previously, on TV I think. 
 

We’ve always had Jackson’s number, and Jackson + Henry is different. But McDermott has figured out both at different times, and gets his shot again soon maybe. I feel good that he a learner. I’m Trusting this one. 
 

Go Bills!!!
