just a quick note that I am affiliated to a female bills Facebook group called bills babes. They are actively posting for boycott and a lot of positive replies.

 

I never thought I would ever see it. But maybe just maybe the NFL will notice a  reduction in viewership and take steps to correct why and Fix the danged thing. 

 

I mean I still wont hold my breath.  It is a world wide focused event but still. 

 

I hate focusing on anything we  fans have no control of.  But the NFL is hearing complaints not just from fans

 

Hope springs eternal KC loses.  

 

 

KC will win and Travis will propose on the podium to TayTay.  Book it!

 

Only explanation for this...  Watch commissioner hug Chris Jones after the game:

that reminded me of hugs Goodell gives draft picks on stage after they are drafted first round. Was it excessive here? Yes I mean it almost felt like bromance to me.

 

But Roger isn't colluding with officials to throw or  not throw flags in games. BUT does the NFL love their RED team juggernaugt champions? Clearly Yes 

 

This post is bleeding over into officiating but I do understand it Is a root cause of a lot of fans frustrations.

 

I hate losing based on that kind of crap too. But I try to let it go  because again it isn't healthy to dwell on  things you cannot control SO.

I'm not boycotting it, but I can't imagine this is the tenor of discussion the NFL wants for much longer.

 

You have some analysts and most fans alike, at fever pitch, saying in all seriousness that they wonder if the league is just entertainment at this point and not a true competition.

 

Bill Burr was on Rich Eisen's show echoing that sentiment.  Every show yesterday opened by talking about, yet another, game altering call(s) that went the Chiefs way.

 

Maybe they don't care, but the NFL is getting dangerously close to becoming a league it's fans will watch, but don't truly believe in any longer.

Wait, a Pats fan is complaining about questionable calls???? 😂 it definitely has to be a bit for Burr. 
 

and this crybaby, “I’m taking my ball and going home stuff” is negative PR for Bills fans. Embarrassing, temper tantrum stuff.

Did you hear what he said?

"I don't care how you get to do it again."

 

Really?  KC gets Carte Blanche?

 

😕😞

When have the Bills not had negative PR.

 

😆🤣

 

Most watched NON-SB's were #1, 1988... #2, 2025.  Bills were in both.

Even Chris Jones groaned and cringed, pushed him away jokingly...

I would argue were are the most beloved fanbase in the league right now. But some fans look giant babies. 
 

I don’t care if anyone watches the SB and they will still have insane ratings. But stating it online or organize “protests” is crybaby behavior. Be better bills fans!

Yeah, I get it... They like matchups.

 

Say Detroit hadn't lost out & instead won out... Would Bills have got the calls?  Same with Washington. 

 

Maybe play both Championship Games at same time?  Never gonna happen IMO.

Agree... I don't care.  We have always taken high-road gets us nowhere.

 

Are the Texans babies?

 

I mean, honestly we are true victims this time... Sad that victim shaming occurs.

The only thing I can say is they owe us! 

 

We got the receipts and are entitled to a perfect season!

Good thing it’s not just Bills fans then.. it’s literally 30 other fanbases as well. 
 

And I never said I’m “taking my ball and going home”, so I don’t know why my post is quoted for that remark… I just don’t necessarily trust that the league is as truly play-on-the-field based as I thought it was..  Not when one team continually gets so many high leverage calls their way.

I haven't watched a Super Bowl in years. Too much hype, not enjoyable.
