    Bills #6 on the NFL Misery Index

    Which football fans have suffered the most? Welcome to the Page 2 Misery Ratings, where current NFL cities are graded from No. 1 to No. 32.


    6. Buffalo Bills
    How have they suffered? Let us count the ways:


    Scott Norwood's kick sailing wide right. Thurman Thomas forgetting his helmet. Thomas' fumble and the blown lead at halftime. The Music City Miracle. Becoming a national punch line for failure -- their Super Bowl XXVIII loss led to a classic David Letterman Top 10 list, "The Top 10 Things Marv Levy Said at Halftime," including "No. 3. Let's plan exactly how you're gonna dump the Gatorade on me" and "No. 8, We've got a long ride home, so I don't want anyone wearing themselves out."


    Let's see, does that about cover it? Whoops. No. Geez, how could we forget?

              Finally somebody gets it!

              31. New England Patriots
              Hopefully with nine NBA titles, three Super Bowl titles, three Stanley Cup championships and now a World Series within the lifetimes of most New Englanders, Boston fans will finally quit plaguing us with their "No One Has Ever Suffered Like Us" bull.

              Hey guys. Tell it to Cleveland.

                        The Norwood kick, obviously, was an absolute killer. But I can only think of ONE THING worse than having your franchise taken away from you (the Browns getting moved to Baltimore), and that is having your team's charter jet crash. the Brown's move is way worse than one missed kick; the Bills are still in Buffalo.

                          A few more....
                          • Buffalo loses a heartbreaker at Miami in a 1998 AFC Wild Card tilt as Doug Flutie is sacked deep in Dolphins territory in the game’s final minute, preserving the 24-17 Miami win.
                          • Trading a #1, #4 and a $15M signing bonus for Rob Johnson, the heir apparent to Kelly (well, after our 2nd round pick Todd Collins flamed out).
                          • Trading a #1 and spending over $22M for Drew Bledsoe, the savior.

                            No worries. I went to HS in MA.

                            Doesn't matter tho...neither of us are/were true New Englanders and we don't live there, so we can pee at them and shoot them all we want.

                              Hiring of Gregg Williams instead of Marvin Lewis and John Fox.
