    The 3 stages after a Bills loss

    1) Commiseration.

    2) Pontification.

    3) Recrimination.


    Do I have that right?

    Not a malady I suffer from, physically or psychologically (I've been gone from WNY for 35 years), but you have correctly identified the characteristic facial countenance of BUF fans worldwide.

    Entirely justified, I add.

    Which one of those stages has blaming the refs in it? We would be 10-0 if not getting jobbed by the refs every frickin' week. It's a testament to the greatness of the team that they have been able to overcome the screw 5 times.

    Then the next four steps:

    4. Blind Rage

    5. Vague Threats

    6. Name Calling

    7. Petty Vandalism

    There's not a fan base anywhere that doesn't bemoan the refs. But for sure, the refs didn't make the club go gaga for zany, high price FA purchases, not being able to happen upon a single qb keeper since Kelly, their love affair for switching out rbs, bouncing all over the draft.

    If all 32 teams happened to be publicly traded, any analysis of Bills stock would see them listed in the pink sheets in the OTC market.

    I just check out for the week and avoid most football news. In fact I'm surprised I'm on here today.

    Re: The 3 stages after a Bills loss

    1. Aggravation, it happened again and I should have known better.

    2. Uncontrollable sobbing and weeping, why is life so mean to me ? Fates, destiny, my God in heaven why must this be the endless crucible of sanity, as if no man might wish a peace for one small shadow of a moment in time from one damn sports team that has spent hours, days, months and years working to be less than the sum total of failure in the path of the most base achievement of happiness, salved by hope, strengthened by joy ?

    3. Beer and wrathful pontification. Those *******s. Screw them. They blow. I can tell you eleventy seven ways they blow. In big paragraphs. While listening to Motorhead. While I have more beer.
