THEDuganWolcott Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I've just recenlty joined the forum here, but I've been a long time reader. I'm 29 years old and been a Bills fan since I was 8. Through the years, I've seen a lot. The Ronnie Harmon drop in Cleveland in '89, "Wide-right", 1993 Wildcard comeback, the Todd Collins-Dan Henning bore-fest of 97, Rob Johnson hype, Drew Bledsoe's ineptness, and the Music City miracle. And though it all, the media NEVER gave the Bills credit for ANYTHING. Why? Because we're a small market. I read that so many people aren't giving the Bills "enough credit" for being 5-2. Why? Because we haven't been to a playoff game in eight years...and we're a small market. Could the NFL live without the Bills in Buffalo...yes. Could I?..HELL NO. Lets face it, we need to appreciate where we are right now at 5-2. Considering how we've started the last several years, this is a blessing. I don't follow any other sports except the NFL and the Bills. Why...because we don't have anything else. The media will always be all over the Dallas' of the sports world. I say, let them have 'em. I don't know about you, but I don't need the media's attention on my team. I don't expect them to be, look at the SuperBowl years, was it ever about Buffalo, no it was Giants, Skins, Dallas, Dallas. And if there is any justice from the football gods, before we lose the Bills, we'll enjoy our squad hoisting the Lombardi trophy within the next couple of years, and then tell Mort, ESPN, NFL Network and the rest to STICK IT!

Beerball Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Let the media focus on Dallas, ne* and Favre. We've got a good nucleus of young talent and leadership in the huddle (both sides of the ball). Playoffs? Yeah, I hope/think so. Plug some of the biggest holes this offseason and things are looking up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
