Went to grad school in Rochester. The whole Buffalo-Rochester-Finger Lakes corridor is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen, and (being that I’m a Cold Weather Boi) is basically god’s country in my eyes. Breweries! Idiosyncratic restaurants and traditions! Rust belt architecture! Growing arts scene since…

People also confuse pegasii and unicorns.

I went to a Lions/Bills game in Detroit about 4 seasons ago (the one where Jim fucking Schwartz got carried out on the Bills players’ shoulders) and was amazed by the number of Bills fans who drove all the way to Detroit and were treating it like they were on some kind of vacation.

I lived in Buffalo for four years. I liked it! I worked at the NBC affiliate (even did studio camera for the Jim Kelly Sports Show). It’s a nice town with affordable housing and fun bars and a wonderful summer climate.

There I was, behind center for the Buffalo Bills. What madness led to this I had no time to ponder. As the supple leather of the ball slid into my hand, I took one step back, then two, then three.

I don’t know if I should be angrier at the Bills or the Vikings for this, but I lost $1000 on that Bills Vikings game in week 2 because I took the Vikings money-line since the Bills had been, not just bad, but COMICALLY, HISTORICALLY bad through the first 2 weeks of the season. FUCK!

I’m a Lions fan living in NW PA. I took my family (including my 12 year old daughter) to the Lions/Bills game last year. Within 150ft of where we parked the car, she saw 2 keg stands and a drunken woman writhing in the mud. My wife gave me a furious look and all I could do was shrug my shoulders and mumble “Bills…

The only thing that sucks now is I have to have tickets on my smartphone instead of paper tickets, and with the new policy, I have to pay international roaming charges on my cell phone to use my ticket.

Am I the only guy who thinks of this guy when they talk about Peterman at QB?

Also, my fantasy team name has been “Die Matt Millen” for a decade, so I probably have to change that now. Thanks Lions.

If Chicago is the Miami of Canada then that makes Detroit its Jacksonville.

Mark my words: The Cleveland Browns will win the Super Bowl before the Lions win another playoff game.

Guys who have won playoff games this decade include:
Tim Tebow
Case Keenum
Blake Bortles

Matt Patricia looks like he has a closet full of shirts arranged by which type of food stains they have on them.

Tom Savage got knocked out in Houston and when he woke up he was in a Lions jersey.  Shaking your head yes during a seizure is consent in Texas
