drhockey Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 Hooo boy... I can't wait to see what happens http://blogs.buffalonews.com/billboard/200...alf-really.html
The Senator Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 I'd say it depends on the score at halftime - if we're winning, it'll be a love fest. (Amazing what consecutive road-wins and a new QB will do for RW's health and mood, no?)
drhockey Posted October 29, 2009 Author Posted October 29, 2009 I'd say it depends on the score at halftime - if we're winning, it'll be a love fest. (Amazing what consecutive road-wins and a new QB will do for RW's health and mood, no?) Totally. I'm shocked that he (or they) scheduled the ceremony after two straight wins *sarcasm off* Honestly though, even with the two wins, which all will admit were not too impressive, I don't imagine he'll get the warmest reception in the world. If the first half is ugly, it will be very interesting to say the least. Hilarity ensues...
DC Mom Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 I would be ashamed to be a Bills fan if fans booed him.
BillsVet Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 It'd be wrong to boo RW this Sunday. That said, he's the reason this team is on the treadmill of mediocrity this decade and it won't shock me if people shower him with boos. The PR department is definitely taking advantage of their winning streak, which is par for the course. Perhaps only the Washington Redskins have alienated their fans and established more of a bunker mentality than Buffalo.
Frit0 Bandit0 Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 There will be alot of cheering with just enough boos to make a statement
Endless Ike Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 I would be ashamed to be a Bills fan if fans booed him. spoken like a true queen of melodrama. The buck stops with him and the team has been in shambles for a decade. If he gets booed its not the end of the world
Lori Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 The title of that BillBoard post: "RCW at half. Really." Nicely played, Mark.
SAbills Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 Booing or cheering is the main way fans express how they feel about the team they love. I don't feel like we have much to cheer about and the buck stops with RW. I have no issue with cheering or booing, it is everyone's right.
Captain Hindsight Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 Im not Gonna cheer or Boo....Ill be in line waiting for a Beer
eSJayDee Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 I agree that booing would be classless. I think the appropriate response (though I can't imagine it happening, unlike boos, if we've had a lame 1st half) would be essentially silence. Failing that, a "golf clap".
Typical TBD Guy Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 As far as I'm concerned, this piece of **** owner deserves all the boos our little lungs can deliver for the single reason that he refuses to secure the franchise's future in Buffalo.
MURTR Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 I would be ashamed to be a Bills fan if fans booed him. I couldn't agree less. We gave him his warm reception at the Hall of Fame. We pay tribute to his team by selling-out game after game. If people would have booed him during his initial ceremony, I would have considered it a little distasteful, but totally justified considering the team put on the field. But I find it utterly pathetic that the ceremony is back on because we have won 2 games in a row. I am all for respecting the elderly, but this coward deserves to be booed.
Fan in San Diego Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 It's a tough call, but booing might get the message to RW loud and clear.
SAbills Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 Referring to fans acting "classy" always makes me wonder. As fans we irrationally attach ourselves to a team of people that more or less could give a bigger **** about us. We care about that team winning. Why should we act rationally or with class while in the midst of an irrational act? I want the team to win and to stay in Buffalo, RW honestly not only hasn't done anything to help those objectives, he's actually made both worse. He deserves boos for his lack of loyalty to legions of loyal money spending fans. Just my opinion.
jester43 Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 if nothing else, he deserves to be booed for selling a home game to toronto.
Boolay Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 how about a 75,000 person mooning? If he doesn't get booed it will show that fans continue to accept the status quo. Continue to be the beaten spouse. And as far as moving the team, do you think the NFL is dumb enough to allow the move of a team that sells out nearly every game?
damj Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 I would be ashamed to be a Bills fan if fans booed him. I'm ashamed to be a Bills fan period.

I have absolutely no problem with people booing him. None. And the fact that all of a sudden now that we've won two in a row he decides it's safe to have the ceremony??? LAME...
