I know this is in reference to the Rangers and baseball but I feel like it applies really well to the Bills. Its the reason we are so loyal as a fan base. Those 4 Super Bowls, The Forward Lateral, losing to Pittsburgh's second string, no matter how agonizing, has to be a big reason why the fan base is so strong.
As a rule, it isn’t winning a title that usually cements a fan base’s loyalty to a baseball team. It’s almost winning — having victory within your grasp and then having your heart ripped out at the last moment. World Series titles come and go (just ask a Florida Marlins fan, if you can find one), but devastating near-misses stay with you forever.
