Preseason Schedule is out!

[Patrick76777]

As per the NFL Network.

Only one home game, which is a huge surprise!

The American Bowl in Japan, which includes a 2-day scrimmage against the Yagasoki Slant Patterns of the Japanese Football league. I guess they’re trying to promote football in Japan but come on. What if someone gets hurt in this stupid Scrimmage?

And 2 West Coast trips?!?!?!?!

What are they doing to us?

August 5 and 6 - 2-day Scrimmage - Yagasoki Slant Patterns of the Japanese Football league
August 7 – vs. Carolina (American Bowl in Japan)
Aug 14 – vs. Kansas City (In Toronto)
Aug 21 – At San Francisco
Aug 28 – At Arizona
September 2 – Detroit

[Mr. Pink]

YaY for the Yagasoki Slant Patterns!

Jesus Christ, it's like the racist jokes write themselves!

[dannyek71]

So only the final, COMPLETELY worthless preseason game in BUF?

[ptd86]

YaY for the Yagasoki Slant Patterns!


I wonder if we'll even win

[Tourettes Guy]

Jesus Christ, it's like the racist jokes write themselves!

Oh snap I just got that! Awesome!

[THATHURMANATOR]

Wow Patrick we are really getting screwed over by the NFL... Why does Buffalo have to play so many Preseason games compared to all the other teams....

[CuseJetsFan83]

scrimmages don't count... and alot of teams do scrimmages.... as far as playing 5 games, the bills did so last year doing the hall of fame game...

[Oldbillsfan]

Thats crazy...Japan?

[Patrick76777]

Wow Patrick we are really getting screwed over by the NFL... Why does Buffalo have to play so many Preseason games compared to all the other teams....


And all the travel! It's BS!

[patmoran2006]

Patrick:
WHere do you hear of this? I haven't seen a link or a report anywhere on TV or the net.

Thanks.

[patmoran2006]

Sorry, didnt see you said NFL Network at the top.

They got nothing online yet.

[Demon]

$5 says Yagasoki Slant Patterns beat us.

In all seriousness, who cares? They could play all 4 games at the Ralph, remain 100% healthy, and still, they will be lucky to get to 4 wins. Why are people so mad?

[Mudflap1]

Finally the Bills are scheduled against some comparable competition. It's about time...

[OpIv37]

An Asian team with "Slant" in the name? Thanks like a (blank) team with (blank) in the name.

I can think of at least 20 hilarious ways to fill in those blanks, but they'd all get me banned from this website.

[OpIv37]

btw the NFL is ****ing ******ed. If their goal is to bring football to new markets, they shouldn't be showcasing this cluster**** of a team.

[ZacGriffi~82]

i can't believe people bought this.

[T-Long]

Jesus Christ, it's like the racist jokes write themselves!
That was seriously hilarious!

[methos4ever]

Is Yagasaki even a town? Nagasaki is, but I do not think Yagasaki is.

[HAMMER]

Old Ralphie is losing some serious cash by only having one home game.

[OpIv37]

Is Yagasaki even a town? Nagasaki is, but I do not think Yagasaki is.

Japanese baseball teams are named after corporate sponsors, not cities. I would assume it's the same for most or all sports there.

[BertSquirtgum]

who actually cares about the pre-season? i don't. i always give my detriot tickets away to friends that have kids.

[The Spaz]

:rofl:

[DraftBoy]

Zoners....stop........take a deep breath....and think about you just read....now think about it again really really hard!

[Pinkerton Security]

Is Yagasaki even a town? Nagasaki is, but I do not think Yagasaki is.

tooo funny

[Demon]

lol.... i figured it out but not after i bought into it. Silly me.

[methos4ever]

Japanese baseball teams are named after corporate sponsors, not cities. I would assume it's the same for most or all sports there.
That I get, but the fact that something this big (international games) not being on the NFL site, on a press release, on ESPN or Sirius says to me it's not true.

Japan's system is awesome in that their best Pro team takes on the best College team in their version of the Superbowl. I realize that there could be a corporation, but I'd never heard of a locale or university by that name.

EDIT - Yeah. That's 20 minutes I'll never get back....

[Michael82]

Oh my God....I can't believe we are losing more ****ing home games! :mad:



:rofl: :rofl:

[DBrown77]

Werent they called the Suzuki Slant Patterns in the thread last year?

[Pinkerton Security]

Werent they called the Suzuki Slant Patterns in the thread last year?

they were sold.

[BillsFanCupp38]

I thought they wanted to shorten the pre season schedule not make it longer... Is there a link?

[Jeff1220]

:rofl:

[streetkings01]

Jesus Christ, it's like the racist jokes write themselves!:lolabove:

[TacklingDummy]

Why 5 pre-season games? Cut it down to 2 and make the season 2 games longer.

[streetkings01]

scrimmages don't count... and alot of teams do scrimmages.... as far as playing 5 games, the bills did so last year doing the hall of fame game...And it kept us from achieving our annual 7-9 finish!

[T-Long]

please tell me people still don't believe this do they? The last few points has me questioning it

[Patrick76777]

It's a Bills Zone Tradition! Although I did miss last year.

[DraftBoy]

As always nicely played Patrick

:bf1:

[madness]

i can't believe people bought this.

Too early! People buy it every year... let it ride, man... let it ride!

[B-DON]

ummmm, you took it a bit to far buddy

[jamze132]

btw the NFL is ****ing ******ed. If their goal is to bring football to new markets, they shouldn't be showcasing this cluster**** of a team.
We're like the Texas State Armadillos in "Necessary Roughness".

[jamze132]

wow.

[buffalobillsfan95]

Why 5 pre-season games? Cut it down to 2 and make the season 2 games longer.
Because that will cause us to put about 12 and a half more players on IR.....

[hydro]

Old Ralphie is losing some serious cash by only having one home game.
Not sure what you are talking about. Last season we had 9 home games and we do this season too. Just this time we have 8 meaningful home games instead of 7. No regular season Toronto games this year only one preseason.

[malo]

More proof that ralph is a cheap bastard.

[X-Era]

ummmm, you took it a bit to far buddy

Fixed

[Night Train]

Good job, Patrick. I enjoy this every year.

[YardRat]

:clap:

[New Ro's Greatest]

We always play Detroit for some reason! GO BILLS:whistle:

[Mad Bomber]

Wow Patrick we are really getting screwed over by the NFL... Why does Buffalo have to play so many Preseason games compared to all the other teams....
So we can have 10 guys on IR before the season even begins.

[TMu11]

btw the NFL is ****ing ******ed. If their goal is to bring football to new markets, they shouldn't be showcasing this cluster**** of a team.
They cant have a Dominant team go over there and KILL their team. They wanna give the foreigners a chance to win... a really, really good chance to win...

[NOT THE DUDE...]

isnt this a derogatory racist thread? why is it not removed? i got 20 points for saying wtf? why are we using these derogatory terms?

[Jan Reimers]

Nice work, Patrick. Even some veteran Zoners fell for it.

[Ron Burgundy]

isnt this a derogatory racist thread? why is it not removed? i got 20 points for saying wtf? why are we using these derogatory terms?

I saw what you were getting at...you just went about it the wrong way.

You shouldn't have been knocked for it, though. That's stupid.
