I've had great experiences as a musician in Buffalo; the people were all super nice, earnest, very likeable. A little ****in' nuts, don't get me wrong, but real genuine and friendly. One time, it was a record snowfall, and they dug tunnels down the sidewalks and filled the venue anyway. Crazy ****ers were wearing shorts and hoodies, and it was like -15 windchill.
And Josh Allen is a very likeable guy. I like them all, really, I do. McDermott is kind of a douche, but that's all.
If we don't win it, I hope they do-partly because Allen was probably going to get one at some point, might as well be now if we're out of the running. I like the Brady/Manning rivalry thing.
But I want to win this game very much.
I just don't hate the Bills.
I've kind of gotten to hate The Bangles.
But the Bills are kind of like our nutty, slightly embarassing but hilarious cousins.

If you ever read reddit, you'd come away thinking they're weird, yet salt of the earth given apparently the mafia's charity work and so forth.
I think maybe some of their younger fans give them a bad name... the TBD types who seem like they're all 14 years old and the ones who have infested this place in the past.
I'm sure there are plenty who have been around decades and much like us, suffered through the good-not-great years and then years of irrelevance, and aren't taking these seasons for granted or as a chance to be complete dicks to other fanbases.
