I know Chris Berman has the quote, "nobody circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills," but I can't figure out what that means.

I'm guessing it has something to do with the bandwagon concept but I can't figure it out.

Little help please.

Actually he was misquoted

What he really said was "Nobody circles the Wegmans like the Buffalo Bills."

When pioneers used to come under attack by Indians, they would cricle thier wagons for better protection. So what it means is when our backs are to the wall, we can still win.

LOL...

Cowboys circled the covered wagons against indian attacks

He's been using that for Buffalo for a decade- whenever there is adversity- and the Bills have had a ton of that- they always respond with a huge effort-

Buffalo Bill Cody was known to do that with his gang and they'd rob the wagons.

My great great uncle, Gabriel Dumont was one of the sharpshooters in Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show.

I wasn't aware Buffalo Bill had a gang and robbed wagons :confused: He used to slaughter Buffalo from trains, and had a world famous wild west show, but no gang.

I think its a pretty good question...I'm sure most people don't know what it refers to....

Hey pcnorth, if you want bandwagon discussions, come down here to Tampa Bay, there are plenty of Buc fans who know an awful lot about jumping on bandwagons
