I remember Fitz throwing the nastiest lead blocks on running plays I have ever seen a QB throw. He seemed like the ultimate team player and I think he's deserving of being honored. FItz could have played on every team in the NFL but he will always be a Buffalo Bill & a part of the Bills mafia no matter what or where he goes he has the Bills DNA ! I think he got a bit better as he got older in the game . Sure he wasn't the best QB but you always knew when he was on the field he was gonna leave it all out there for the Bills and for all that matters any team he played for but he always comes home to Buffalo !! Love that dude ... I'm looking forward to his intro it should prove to be very interesting for sure !!!! I wonder if him a Hollins have met yet i think that would be a hoot !! GO BILLS !!! 3 1 2 Quote

ComradeKayAdams Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Oh. Em. Gee. It’s only fitting that a little FitzMAGIC gets sprinkled onto this already magical season!! The “Legend of the Game” tradition seems to be a more welcome one among our community than the old-school human sacrifices to The Pit, no? C’est la vie. Once dear Fitzy is informed of Bills Mafia’s preferred location in the universe’s spacetime continuum, may the walls of Highmark Stadium reverberate with the sartorial command: “Take it off! Take it off! Take it off!” Fitzy shall accede, and this shall please the Pro Football Gods of Buffalo very much so. And then the prevailing winds shall traverse Lake Erie and through Ryan’s regal chest hair. And each follicular tickle will be their whispered personal reassurance to dear Fitzy that ultimate gridiron glory is to FINALLY be attained for the Queen City, exactly 103 seasons following the Staley Swindle. The emergent “Mr. Brightside” sing-along tradition is pretty neat, too. The “Shout” song Is honestly starting to get a bit stale: “We’re coming out to the game, And we’re doing just fine. Gonna gonna be cold, But we’ll have a ball! It started out with a Fitz. How did it end up like this?? It was only a Fitz, It was only a Fitz… Want our playoff run deep, Beyond those that eat crab. Or will McD’s D choke? Or a misused challenge flag? Will Coach Smiley poop the bed? Now my stomach is sick. Will we get to Arrowhead?! But he’s touching his chest now, He takes off his dress(shirt) now… Let it goooooo! We just can't look. It’s chilling us, But taking control… Jealousy, From Ravens fans over the MVP. Sifting through sick online lies, Regarding Josh and D.E.I.’s. But it's just the price we pay. Football destiny is calling us. Open up our eager eyes, And look at his hirsute side!” << begin first instrumental break >> << repeat the aforementioned lyrics >> << begin second interlude, getting ready for big final chorus… >> “Hair sweater. Hair sweater! HAIR SWEATER. HAIR SWEATER!!” 1 Quote

muppy Posted January 15 Posted January 15 (edited) I think his being the "legend of the game " is a No Brainer. I love it and cannot wait to see what he is going to do AND say He is so baller. Ivy league grad with a great fashion sense even while shirtless lol I have no more words to describe Fitzy besides Legend. He is that and More Edited January 15 by muppy 1 Quote
