The really sad part about the Bills organization being so poor is that many Bills fans who used to visit sites like this to talk about football are no longer around. Why would they...there is nothing good to talk about. I remember when this site used to be jammed with hope, constructive talk about winning football games and playoffs. Now, it is just filled with doubt, dispair and hopelessness. I know first hand, that is the feeling I have with this team and I'm guilty of being too negative. I truly hope that something big happens this offseason and that excitement can once again be brought back to the fanbase, along with more fellow Bills fans coming back to have discussions about the possibilities that this organization could provide.

Re: The really sad part about the Bills.
Amen. It's certainly much harder to be optimistic after 9 straight years without a playoff appearance, and not much hope on the horizon. And it's not really constructive to hope for Ralph's demise.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Re: The really sad part about the Bills.
I know I'm the unofficial resident pessimist around here, but I can honestly say I've never been more disillusioned about this team than I am right now. It looks like we're still 2-3 years away, which means we're STILL rebuilding. The people at the top- from Ralph throughout the FO- have repeatedly demonstrated incompetence, so even if they change coaches, I have no reason to believe they're going to get it right. Next year will either bring another year of Jauron's mediocrity, or some new coach starting over. Neither is particularly exciting.Originally posted by Nighthawk
This team has made it so hard to enjoy football. It's impossible to get excited about the games when they're meaningless.Comment

Re: The really sad part about the Bills.
I don't think it's a matter of going away, but posting a positive thread at this point will result in:
1 - Getting blasted for being a homer/apologist/etc
2 - Have someone ask what you're smoking/seeing/etc that they are not
3 - Told you must be used to/accept/enjoy mediocrity
At this point, we have a bad economy, people losing jobs or afraid they might and I think a lot of what brings folks to sports is an escape - a hope. And with the collapse of the season after such a bright start that further exacerbated the current Bills Nation unrest.
My fiancee is a Steelers fan and it burns me up every time they win; not because I hate the Steelers (which I also do) but because I see them as Bizarro Buffalo. And that irks me. Other seasons not so much, but this season...it's scary.
It's all over boards all over the internet, with regard to the Bills. It's a darn shame.

Re: The really sad part about the Bills.
I know what you mean nighthawk. I have some ideas for some articles, but my lack of Bills excitement doesn't give me the spark I need to sit down and write the things I'm thinking.

Re: The really sad part about the Bills.
I know, this fanbase needs SOMETHING to get them excited about again. Not just a band-aid fix, but real hope that we could win something. I'm holding out hope that this organization does that this offseason.Originally posted by yordadComment
