How is it possible to be the exact same team for 13 years?

Outside of last years Patriots game....when was the last time this team won a HUGE divisional game? 1999?

Even the Browns and Lions have won 10 games within the last 5 years. Bengals made the playoffs. Cardinals made the Super Bowl. You can't try and be that bad and be this bad.

What is the one constant on this team?

I'll give you a hint....He went to high school with Jesus.

Well, I guess there always has to be "one of those team". And it looks like the Bills have been "one of those teams" for 13 years.

This slide all started with the benching of Flutie; Rob Johnson and the "Music City Miracle".

He watched the first water come to the surface of the earth as well.

I sure hope you're not blaming 13 years of futility because of that game.

Absolutely not. But, while he was in San Diego, there were rumors of Flutie running around with a voodo doll that looked a lot like Ralph Wilson.





Then again Wilson does resemble other things that are considered paranormal/undead.

The irony is that the Bills are even bad at being bad. If they would just go 2-14 or 1-15 at the right time, we could have had, Cam, RG3, or even Luck on our side. But they even suck at sucking.

I've never been one of those guys that wished Ralph would die. Never have. Nope. Not gonna say it. Not going there. Someone please help me.

This is what happens when you have an owner where the game has passed him by.

We laugh but....

Homerun Throwback occurs, Bills lose WC they should have won.
DeHaven gets fired, Ronnie Jones gets the job.
Ronnie Jones and his punt catchers suck.
Wilson demands he is fired, Wade resists and is fired for his loyalty, and has to sue Ralph for the last year of his contract.
Butler is low-balled on contract offer, and opts for San Diego.
Wilson brings in Donahoe who GUTS the entire team and front office.
Donahoe brings in 'his' HCs and they stink.
Donahoe gets fired, in haste Ralph hires the only other human as old as him that he can trust, Marv as GM.
Marv brings in Dick, et al, but is not really a GM, he's a coach at heart.
Marv steps down, Ralph turns to Russ Brandon, who essentially ran the gift shop.
Brandon, like a kid that is given the keys to the Dad's Ferrari, crashes the team into a wall.
So the grownups are called in, and Nix is made GM.
NFL calibre HCs turn down the job, due to Ralph's meddling, and refusal to pay off Wade.
Retread Chan finally accepts job. Takes a 7-9 team and ends up 5-11 and 6-10.

And that's where we stand today.

Correction. 4-12 and 6-10.

And you forgot one thing. Bruce Dehaven gets rehired.

Rinse and repeat.

Wow, that is a pretty depressing picture right there.
