BillsfaninFl Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Every week, several fans note that for any number of reasons, the Bills will fall short of expectations. Stop that!!! I understand why you feel that way, but you are just setting yourself up so that every time something goes wrong you'll be able to say, "I knew it!" Instead, enjoy where the team is... what it has accomplished... and the potential it has. There will be plenty of time for weeping and gnashing of teeth later, as should be expected if you follow any NFL team except the one that wins the Super Bowl. Think of how much worse it could be. There are Patriots, Colts, Chargers and Cowboys fans tearing their hair out right now. Things they can't take away from us: * The Bills are way more entertaining than they have been for a decade. * The national elections will be over in two weeks, and there will be a brief respite (perhaps a day or two) before the next set of candidates start campaigning. * Eventually, Jason Peters will realize he blew it and start playing Pro Bowl football again. * In six months, we will draft a few more good men who will make the team even better. * We'll soon start talking about new interesting subjects like "why did they let Jabari Greer hit the free agent market without signing him to an extension?" or "Should we pick up free agent Kurt Warner to be our backup quarterback now that J.P. Losman has left the team?". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuckeyeBill Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Don't forget the imminent talk of endless mock-drafts in March and April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
