    Phase II:: November 1st -- 1st Quarter HOLD OUT!

    We've seen how fast the media can push things, so let's push this idea. No longer am I encouraging people to not show up for the entire game... I say everyone just tailgates an extra hour during the entire 1st Quarter. Before you reply, think about it...

    The Bills go to kick off.... to complete SILENCE.
    THIS HAS NEVER BEEN DONE!

    How awkward would that be for the announcers/coaches/owner etc?


    I feel this will send a clear message... "DON'T **** WITH US"

    Spread the word...Tweet it, put it on your facebook status etc.



    Hey One Bills Drive!!!

    I agree it needs to be done. Maybe not a whole quarter but at least 1st 2 mins. I know if I went I really dont want to miss much of the game. 2 mins should do it

      2 min? It'll appear to be traffic related or some bull****.. one full quarter isn't anything but it will send a message and reach national media for sure.

            the whole idea is lame.

            It is childish. RW is not an idiot. He knows they suck. He knows the problem. He isn't going to do anything about it during the season unless the team is past rancid because it will cost him money. He proved that by trying not to pay Wade Phillips when he fired him. Get over it and move on.

              I'm not disagreeing with you, but I'm unclear on how to "move on." Are you saying to just not show up, or to go about business as usual - tailgate, go on, buy beer, etc? Should the fans try to send a message (other than booing)?

                What he is saying is that there is nothing fans can do to make RW make a move, so at least go and have fun whether at the games, at the bar, or at home.

                  I don't even know why I open threads like these. Half of the people will say its a great idea and half of the people say it's childish. If you guys wanna do it, more power to ya. For those that don't, who cares? If you are going to the game and want to go in on time, then go for it. This is getting redundant reading the same things over and over again

                    traffic related? the whole stadium? really? when everyone has been in the parking lot for hours?

                      completely disagee with it being childish. It would be awesome to see on TV

                        Ok, but not all stadiums are as hardcore as the Ralph. It's something the announcers would say if the place was half full.

                          I don't really see why chiming in to bash the idea is relevant. If you don't want to do it, or are opposed to it.. shut the **** up. I'll feel better knowing I did something than just sitting on my ass waiting for things to change. We've been waiting how long? How far has that gotten us?

                          For being so "die-hard" and "hardcore" about football and this team.. there sure are a bunch of pussies within this fanbase.
