I find it very difficult to believe that anyone in Buffalo still watches football.
This is a hockey town. The Buffalo Bills have been gone since 95. I would like to think they are doing well in their new home (HELL) and that the ownership is finding much success (fuck you Ralph [blow me] Wilson).

Well the game was much closer until the fourth quarter.

The whole 41-17 is a misleading score, two defensive interceptions when we needed scores, and why the hell would you throw to TO when he was acting like that at the end of the game?

Well, lets hope we can at least get a new coach by the end of this year.

The difference between Buffalo as a hockey town and Buffalo as a football town is that it took the Sabres years upon years to take Buffalo over (after the '99 Cup run, I mean), whereas the Bills would need one playoff season to re-take the city.

However, given the history of hockey in this city (100+ years of it), I would say that Buffalo has been a hockey town all along.

Whenever the Bills lose...I always say, "At least we have the Sabres." It's when both the Sabres and the Bills are losing is when I'm truly a miserable sports fan.

I'm slightly different. When both the Sabres and Bills are losing, I think "At least I still have the Bandits." When all three are doing poorly, I'm a truly miserable sports fan.

Manning the machine gun on the Tyler Myers Bandwagon - just in case any teams have an idea of prying him away from us (3 GM's shot already)

Connolly/Roy - 2 goals in the last 47 playoff games

So our cheap-ass owner can trade it for 7 5th rounders?
