For some reason the bills seem to play the Pats tough at least one game a year the same way in the early-90s when the Pats sucked donkey balls, but always seemed to play the perennial SB losers one game tough during the season.

He was born in Iowa and died in Colorado, and earned his nickname by killing thousands of buffalo on the plains of the Midwest. So, he had no ties at all to the city or the region. That team needs a new name. Maybe they could swap with Denver and become the Buffalo Broncos and Denver Buffalo Bills.
They could've copied the Philadelphia Phillies, and be the Buffalo Buffalo Buffaloes.

Of course, if they move to LA, they should change their name and become the Los Angeles Waterfalls (as appropriate as the Lakers).

Re: Does anyone know anything about the Bills (or care)?
Other Bills facts:
- They've spent 3 of their past 8 1st round picks on running backs.
- They were the only NFL team to finish last season without a single NFL-quality tackle on the roster, and look to repeat the feat this season.
- They gave T.O. a key to the city before he even dropped a pass.
- Their QBs are Brian Brohm, Levi Brown, Trent Edwards and Ryan Fitzpatrick. Yeah, I don't know who they are either.
- In an ultra-competitive AFC East, they'll provide 2 chances to relax for the rest of the division. For that, I'm grateful.
When I was a kid and didn't know any better, I bet on them to win the Super Bowl against the Giants. And when they went back to the Super Bowl the next season, I bet on them again, because who loses twice in a row? And then they made it to the Super Bowl for the third year in a row, I bet on them again, because it'd be impossible to lose 3 in a row. And yes, when they got back for the 4th Super Bowl, I bet on them again because there's no way anyone could lose 4 in a row.

It doesn’t seem right to derail the original thread but he doesn’t have enough posts to start his own, so, in the interests of hospitality ...
Trouble is, I know almost nothing about the Bills.
1. They play in a depressed rustbelt city on the outskirts of Toronto with a terrible climate

Two years in Staten Island, perhaps he became enamored of Canadian exotic dancers and Niagara falls during that period?
