BILLY5407 (LEAD BILLS BLOGGER)
Hello Die Hard Bills Fans! Feel free to contact Die Hard Bills Fan or myself at this email address: spielmn54 [at] aol.com.
My name is Billy and I am from Franklin Square, N.Y. Being a Bills fan here on Long Island is not easy. Most people ask me how I became a Bills fan. Without going into a long explanation, I tell them that the Bills are the only true New York team. While growing up, most of my family members and friends liked either the Giants or the Jets. My Dad was basically responsible for introducing me to the Bills. I remember the stories he would tell me about how great the AFL was and his favorite team was the Buffalo Bills. One Sunday afternoon in 1988, I watched the Jim Kelly led Buffalo Bills clobber the New York Jets. Jim Kelly had a fabulous day throwing for three touchdowns and Bruce Smith led the defense, which had five sacks. I was hooked from that moment on. Watching guys like Jim Kelly, Andre Reed, Thurman Thomas, Bruce Smith, Steve Tasker, Cornelius Bennett and Daryl Talley was just so amazing. This team had it all and showed it. I was fortunate to go to my first game in 1994. What better game than the AFC Championship against Kansas City.
My Cousin had purchased a ticket for me and that will go down as one of the greatest experiences I have ever had. The energy in the stadium, the cold weather and the way the Bills played that day is something I will never forget. Ever year, I make the trip up to Buffalo to watch my team play. Nothing is like watching a game at Ralph Wilson Stadium. We have had some really tough times over the last ten years. Even though the glory days seem like a distant memory, I couldn’t imagine being a fan of another team. Hopefully our young talents such as J.P. Losman, Marshawn Lynch, and Lee Evans could turn out to be our next Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas, and Andre Reed. Hey, it could happen. Lets Go Buffalo and 2007 should be a very exciting year.
