    This is not meant to pick a fight

    But I have a simple question.

    Why do non-Bills fans come here?

    There are boards for all team fans... but then why here?

    Seriously, as a non-Bills fan, why post here?

      this site has been successful at keeping opposing teams fans when they visit the week before a game. links are posted on other message boards and people follow the links. You all are active internet users and that's all they are.

        Sure, game day or week non-Bills fans would want to come and talk up the game. That makes sense. But why do some stay, and post almost daily?

            I'm a fan of both Cleveland and Buffalo.

            I post on both team sites. I do admit I post here more frequently because I live here and am exposed to all things Bills on a more daily basis. I probably know more about Buffalo Bills football than Browns football even though I'm a bigger fan of the Browns.

            I've never denied that I root for the Browns more so than the Bills.

            I'm also just as critical of both teams for their bonehead mistakes and blunders.

            I want both teams to succeed.

            This board is run much better and there are some more quality posters here, to be honest. The Browns board I frequent is full of people like The_Answer. So I use the Browns board more for actual news and developments and this site more for just shooting the breeze and talking football.

            I'm about 5 to 1 on posts here to posts there.

                  For the same reasons Bills fans came over to Finheaven in droves when you guys were 4-0. To talk smack...or talk football.

                  I come here to do both but mostly talk football (plus it is the Bills/Fins week so thats why I am posting here more).

                  It is funny cause I havent seen a number of Bills fans post smack over on Finheaven (justasportsfan, Crisis etc) but now they are no where to be found haha.

                    Why do other teams fans come here, because we are the best.

                      That's because fans of other teams, like moi, make this place the best!

                        Re: This is not meant to pick a fight

                        I always hate when opposing fans talk smack AFTER a win, but never show up if their team loses. I've well established myself here to prove that I can take my medicine with the best of them, and before this year, I've taken quite my share and I'm still here. Because of that, I'd like to think I've earned the chance to give some (respectful, most of the time, lol) razzin when my team wins--hasn't happened too much these last some years.

                        On the other side, I really like football and I pick my battles when it comes to putting my 2 cents in when it comes to football things, even Bills type items. Plus the NFL forum has been pretty good, it needs a bit more of a pulse, so I need to post a bit more there. Plus the Twilight Zone can be entertaining, especially being a lurker at NO-TOS.

                        Here's the simple key for ANY fan of any team, try to be as respectful as you can to your fellow poster. It can be a challenge at time for everybody, but it can happen, lol.

                          I post the week of our matchup for some good conversation about the upcoming game. This year you guys are pretty quiet. lol
