View Full Version : Here's a question

I usually lurk at most message boards. Why do I lurk, well it's because I don't think I'm too bright when it comes to talking about my team. I have even been slammed on other boards because of it. They have questioned my loyalty to the team. With slogans like "have a take but don't suck" leaves me lurking more and more, as opposed to posting.

My question is, and I am posting this here because you guys don't usually slam a stupid remark: Just because I can't over analyze the team schemes, and weaknesses, does it make me any less of a fan in your eyes? I am a Buffalo Bills fan and it is a love that's very deep in my heart.

This place is the best for treating ALL posters with the same level of respect. Keep up the good work :up:

And no it doesn't make you less of a fan.

If you stick with a team through thick and thin, they you are a fan. Period.

you know where i learn about that stuff bud? on message boards.. there are enough educated posters here that you will learn just from reading.. and if you read something you dont understand.. hell! its a message board.. post a message and say "i dont get it, can you explain it to me".. plenty will be happy to add their knowledge.

thing is, i noticed.. maybe about 4 years ago.. maybe longer.. as i learned more about the game... i started watching teh little things in the game..

it was funny, because i was just explaining to my wife on sunday during the virginia tech game.. she didnt understand what all the different positions where.. and i never knew she didnt know them.. i just assumed she did..

so i say, damn.. did you see that fullback crush that LB.. he punked him.. and she looked at me like i was speaking spanglish...

i actually flipped on john madden and schooled her to all the formations, positions, ect.. it was fun.. i was using instant replay and stuff.. lol..

then last night.. i was like, HONEY! WE SIGNED LAWYER MILLOY! he is an awesome Strong safety from NE. she was like sweet.. i said.. do you know what a strong safety is? she goes.. he is the one the roams around in the secondary and knocks the crap out of people..

i felt like a proud father watching his son score his first TD.. i said "thats my girl"... and smacked her in the butt. :D

YEah I concur with the rest of the folks. I have said some stupid things here, and no-one's questioned my loyalty.

Nice to see you again.

The truth is, anyone who can admit to being a fan (especially back during the 80 before the SB's) is considered a fan.

If you dont jump from team to team based on who is good that season, you are ok in my book.

Our motto here is to attack the post, not the poster. Generally people do really well about that here, and we try to enforce it.

Speak your mind my friend, and as long as you stick to your guns, people will respect whatever you have to say. They may not agree, but they will respect your opinion.

Thanks for posting bro!

I cried when I got home from work yesterday and my fiancee asked me if the Bills picked up Milloy. The gal is coming around. Not only is she getting into football, she is showing signs of liking the Bills. I had a "moment."

ok, ok I didn't actually cry! Crying is for sissies. But I was kind of happy.

I told my wife that we signed Milloy and she said she didn't give a crap. :(

You guys are so lucky. I told my wife that we signed Milloy, and pro-bowler safety from NE, and we play them in the home opener....I was so excited...

All I got was a "OK honey".

:cry:

I need a new wife. :(

We all bleed red and blue here, so we're all brothers in a way. It's just nice to know that the horrible itch you have to check all the sites for the latest info, or scan all the news channels at 6:25 to see the local updates on our beloved team, is shared by many. The Buffal Bills are truly my favorite thing in the world, and we have the greatest fans like you and me. I have been jonesing since they signed Posey. I honestly wish that they had a 24 hr Bills channel, so I could satisfy my hunger whenever I wanted. Welcome Friend.

Like people have already been saying... the only way to learn more about how to analyze the game is to post and read and watch the games. I've learned so much from some of the guys on this board. I know about ten times as much about the game than I did when I first started posting... and I'm still quite overwhelmed sometimes. Some of the stuff some of these guys come up with, you think they oughtta be working for an NFL team.

But don't be afraid to post. I still dunno S**T... but I still have over 2000 posts here... what does that tell ya ;)
