I have to say that there were plenty of people out there who doubt Buffalo not only because of their record but because of the negative things the Bills have done as well. I like the Bills. Not because I like the "Underdog" or I feel sorry for them. I like the Bills because I am a lifetime fan and will never change my loyalty no matter what. Throughout these past ten years, I have seen the Bills lose and then lose some more. I have been criticized countless times for being a fan. I tough it out and hope for greener pastures. I know there are people who don't have the heart to stay loyal to a team who loses. I don't understand that thought process. If you are a loyal fan, that means sticking with your team. You expect them to lose every once in a while. Some of the best fan bases out there are from losing teams. You know why? Those people have heart and if I were to have a friend, I would want any of those "Loser fans" as friends/fans than all of you switch-up fans out there who don't have LOYALTY and only have shallow greed.
Now to my topic. I sat at O'briens last Sunday and watched the Bills and Steelers game with my girlfriend and some buddy's. We were surrounded by Steelers fans. These people were twice our age all decked out in their jerseys, hats, and terrible towels talking trash and speaking of statistics. These people were funny yet bitter. My kind of people. As we all watched the game, we traded verbal slams to one another and enjoyed company as well as the game. People predicted that this game would be a blowout and that the Steelers would mop the floor with the Bills. As the game unfolded, a horse of a new color showed it face as the Bills stuck with them till the bitter end and made these same skeptics eat their words for Buffalo almost won if it hadn't been for a few miscues and the receiving side. It cam down to OVERTIME and the Steelers won by 3 in a nail biter. After the game. We all shook hands and said "Good Game" as if we had played it. That was comradory and respect. Those were loyal fans acknowledging other loyal fans. It was a beautiful thing and I wish that others could partake in such past times as being good sportsmen instead of poor sportsmen.

Un Billiever's
I am online every other day to get the scoop on my team. If you can't guess which team that is, you are the type of person I write this blog for, the ignorant. Anyways, I recently checked to see the power rankings for both quarterbacks and all around teams. I saw that my team BUFFALO was ranked 28th just above the teams they beat out. I understand that there are people out there that just love to hate the Bills but that is being biast when it gets in the way of reporting for the NFL. You have to be NON biast and openminded. I also realize that because of Buffalo's record that they catch flack from sports writers and wanna be's. The truth is that although Buffalo has lost a majority of thier games and have statistically one of the worst run stopping defenses, they are one of the toughest teams out there. How about all of you haters out there get off your high horses and open your eyes to more than the negative when you see the Bills play.
