    Greetings from a Fins fan

    First of all, congrats on a very nice season so far. The Bills are one of the most balanced teams in the league. They have a chance to win any game because they can play most any style. They are a bit inconsistent but that comes from the youth of the team.

    Edwards is very impressive. He is so impressive that I picked him up on my fantasy team just before the Cardinals game and started him. Needless to say, I lost that game. My apologizes for jinxing the Bills. I just picked him up again yesterday, so if he gets hurt, it's my fault. I can't, in good conscience, start him against my Fins, but after this week, I'm hoping he does well.

    Of course I hope the Fins smack the Bills this week, but (since the Fins are rebuilding and don't have a legit shot this year) I hope the Bill beat the Pats and Jets for the division title. I just hate the Jets and I'm sick of the Pats. Being a life long WNY resident, it's great to see what good Bills and Sabres teams do for the area.

    So other than this week and week 14, good luck the rest of the way. Next year, the Fins will be tougher. I can't wait to get back to the days of Miami vs. Buffalo meaning something.

      This decade happened. When neither team is relevant, the rivalry isn't relevant.

                  Nice civil words FFinB, but don't think for a second that your I-come-in-peace stuff is going to exempt you from being negged to hell just for this week.

                      In the old days you would have been burned at the stake along with your black magic.

                      You can throw records away anytime division opp. meet, so I'm expecting a good close game like last year. What's the forecast for this weekend?

                      P.S. We have a punch 'em in the mouth defense so if Chad decides to do that line up at WR Wildcat crap... we're not responsible for what may happen. Whitner may just have to move to CB for that play.

                        1970
                        Fins - 10-4, playoffs
                        Bills - 3-10-1

                        1971
                        Fins - 10-3-1, SB loss
                        Bills - 1-13

                        1972
                        Fins - 17-0, perfect season
                        Bills - 4-9-1

                        1973
                        Fins - 12-2, SB win
                        Bills - 9-5

                        and.... 20-0 against the Bills in the 1970's

                        I never looked back.

                          I agree 100%. Buffalo, Pitt, Cleveland, and Cincy would be a great division. Can you imagine the road trips?

                          Bal, NYJ, NE, and Indy - Brady v Manning twice a year.

                          Miami, Jac, Houston, Tenn

                          Oak, KC, Den, SD

                          I could root for the Bills to do well and still support my Fins.

                            In my rebellious youth, I was a Boston Bruins fan and a Miami Dolphins fan. Notice a pattern? Check the Bruins success in the early 1970's.

                            I've since mended my ways in hockey, but I cannot dump the Fins.

                              Do you fear for your life while you are at Topps wearing your Ricky Williams jersey?
