lets_go_bills Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Ouch. That was a tough one. But it sure was a great program and a good watch. Good TV. Wide right... that just resonates through me. Wide right... What a resiliant bunch, they kept trying. So close. Those four straight are an amazing accomplishment. It was good to re-live that history as I was rather young when the Bills were doing this. It was a great time, going back and appreciating the rich Bills history. What a special team. I loved how Marv coached. "When it's too tough for them, it's just right for us!" It just wasn't meant to be ... Our Super Bowl victory will come.

TheMadCap Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I said I wouldn't watch. I said I'll just watch a little bit, until the kick. I watched the kick sail wide STILL trying to somehow will it to go through. Yes, it would have been great to win one. For the city and the players of what was THE greatest team to never win the title. I am convinced of that. But somehow, after taking that program in, I wonder, will this just make the day when the Bills win the Super Bowl that much better? When all the bitter memories and mocking laughter from jackasses who don't have a clue what it's like to suffer as we have suffered are washed away? When the day comes when we will be redeemed, when the Bills will be finally on top? Won't it be even better? And take this to heart my friends, when that day comes, and it WILL come, the day the team brings that trophy back to the city, the fans of Buffalo will show America what a REAL celebration is. We will show them a crowd in the streets the likes of which this country has never seen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was awesome.Considering i was in the service until 1992 and missed many of the regular season games.Hell i watched Superbowl 25 in Cuba.All in all it still was painfull to watch wide right,but just some of the Marvisms bring back great memmories.What a fantastic piece which still sends shivers down my spine.Even with th Superbowl loses it was one hell of a team.

lets_go_bills Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 This may sound crazy but I honestly believed there was a chance that kick wouldn't go wide right. I was hoping for it to go through. I didn't believe it until I saw it again, then my heart sank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good things are here again.I agree, i think great things are on the horizon for this team,barring injuries,specifically in the qb position.If Trent stays healthy the skys the limit,but if Jp has to step in well thats another story.

The Guy Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Every night as I drift off to sleep, in the moments when consciousness and unconsciousness are entwined, I see the ball fly wide right. It startles me awake. Every night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It startles me awake. Every night. Not every nite but I've had that fantasy. Like Jim/Thurman/Bruce/Andre have said, they would've won at least 1 other if they had just gotten that 1st one.

Like Jim/Thurman/Bruce/Andre have said, they would've won at least 1 other if they had just gotten that 1st one. I think they definitely would have won at least 1 more if they beat the Giants. The thing I think about is what may have happened the season before if Ronnie Harmon hadn't dropped the ball in Cleveland. The Bills would have gone into Denver for the Conference Championship game. Sure they were young, but anything could have happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
