He said the same thing about the raiders, and they're in a similar ownership situation as the Bills and no one is complaining.

Do the Raiders have any fans that actually care if the team folds? I would say they have less than what the Bills do.

I do agree that the Bills aren't nationally compelling. However, his position that folding the team is a better option than fixing the problems are ludicrous.

The Packers were 6-10 last year, and are in a smaller market than Buffalo. Where were his calls to fold that team?

The prissy douchefag wants to disband a lot of sports teams, but for obvious reasons I'm specifically focusing on what he said about Buffalo. Fuck him...no excuses or justifications will be accepted.

CV, you'd be wrong about some people not growing up with it. Especially if their parents are hockey nuts. Their kids will then grow up with hockey. And there are leagues that focus on hockey below the Mason Dixon line, just because you can't play it outside means nothing, plenty of inside rinks to go on.

But if a Buffalo team were to fold it would have to be a team which does not bring in alot of money for the city. The Bills bring in more money than the Sabres since it is a football team, and no one is going to fold the Bills. They've been around since the entire existence of the NFL. you would never fold an original team of the league ever.

I understand though, you and Herd are pretty opposite. You're exactly the kind of fan that Cowherd hates and rails on constantly. If you truly devalue his opinion, that knowledge won't bother you. Cowherd likes a more cerebral, secular fan with a broad interest as opposed to die hards that pull for the local team.

But it's not aprt of the culture the way it is up north. I have no doubt that there are plenty of good hockey fans down south, but it will never catch on there. It is completely different growing up skating down on the old pond than it is growing up skating twice a week at the local rink and listening to your parents stories. how many NHLers are from below the MD line. Are there even 5?



I like your second point, and fully support this. But when the Browns moved, I lost faith in any professional sports league to follow that line of thinking. Money talks all too loudly.

Stop speaking for what I am and what I believe in. You don't know shit about me, but you like to put on your little 4th grade psychology cap and make ridiculous, broad sweeping diagnosis on a regular basis as if you know what the fuck you're talking about. You don't, so kindly keep your little snap judgments to yourself.

Now, if you would actually read what I wrote before typing out your uninformed opinions you would have seen in the original post that I rarely listen to his heinous show, but when Howard Simon ends my stream automatically jumps over and I happened to hear his rant against Buffalo. I think his show sucks, he's joke, and his opinions are almost never worth the air that's used to form sound, so I don't bother listenting. If he dislikes me and the rest of Buffalo's fans, as you suggest, than nothing could make me happier.

Plus it all depends on the kid, there are some players who were born in the South got into Hockey, but went north to play in leagues to get a better shot at the NHL.

The Browns moved because of an the owner moving them. But the NFL brought them back.

And you're asking if the raiders have a large contingent of diehard fans. Really...the raiders, who play in one of the msot famous stadiums in the NFL?
