I have always considered myself a huge Buffalo Bills fan...and i thought that is what it was a fanhood..i thought i was a Bills fanatic. But today i realized how much the Buffalo Bills are a part of my life.
As i said in the other thread my dad is dieing of cancer. i talked to him three times today and the only thing he and i talked about was the Buffalo Bills.
My dad hasnt always been a great father..He's been supportive and definitely loves me but he isnt the type of guy that gives you a hug and tells you he is proud of you. he just isnt an emotional guy...When we talk its about one thing...THE BILLS
Today as my dad laid in his bed on morphine in unbelieveable pain he didnt tell me how much pain he was in. he didnt tell me that he hopes he overcomes the cancer.
he asked me what i thought about mini camp...who i thought out of the rookie class would be the best. Who i think will star on offense this year..we talked about the Bills all three times.
I mean i asked how he was and all that as i am the worried son. But as always he doesnt show weakness to me. Instead we talked about the thing that has always tied us together. The football team we love...
This team is our relationship that has kept us close whether it was home in NY or if i was in Iraq it didnt matter...The only letter i specifically remember was where he sent me a letter telling me each draft pick and the positives and negatives he found online on each player.
What is the point of this email you might wonder? Today i learned its not a fan thing. We are all diehards that is certain.
But its not a fanhood....in some way i think the Bills are a big part of our life...Today i found out its a major part of a relationship ive known since i was born...And if it wasnt for them i dont know what it would be like...
Im not a fan...Im a person that lives for this team and they are a part of my life not a part of my fanhood...
