My T.O. rant



Here's the thing with T.O. Yeah he's a bit of a drama queen. But here's the thing with this whole situation, the Bills didn't win. So yeah T.O. is being a baby about losing his streak, but I can understand his frustration. If the Bills won and he was bitching about things, I'd just be like oh that's just T.O. being T.O. However, since they didn't, I get it. I'd be annoyed too if my team lost and I didn't contribute to the team at all. So for the first time in my life, I'm going to say, "Lay off T.O."

I act like I'm 8; But I wear 81

Because T.O. loves being the new biggest topic of my blog, he's acting like a spoiled little brat and WR James Hardy has switched his number from 81 to 84 so Owens can have his number 81. I know veteran players often get their number when they switch teams, but when you're a drama queen and this is basically your last shot at redemption, just suck it up and take whatever they give you.

And the Bills continue to annoy me...

You've got to be kidding me! The Buffalo Bills signed WR Terrell Owens to a 1 year $6.5 million contract today. I feel the urge to buy season tickets to the Bills this year now so I can constantly chirp him. Also, this means that T.O. will be playing in T.O. since the Bills will play another home game in Toronto, like they did last season. The Bills seem excited but I have this feeling QB Trent Edwards is sitting somewhere saying "Oh f*** my life."

Save the Buffalo Bill!

I have this assignment due tomorrow to create an ad for the WWF about saving the polar bears. While I was working on it, my friend suggested the polar bears don't need saving when compared to the Bills. Well here's my revamped ad (click it for a better view). P.S. the WWF really has nothing to do with this.

Just hand over your wallet Toronto


The first regular season NFL game in Canada will be played today in Toronto at the Skydome...err I mean Rogers Centre (ah eff it it's still the Skydome in everyone's mind). So I already made my views on the London games known. So now what's wrong with the Toronto series. Oh man where do I begin?

Well first of all, for any Toronto football fans to go to the game they've got to open their wallets and actually you know what just hand their entire wallet over. The average ticket price at the Skydome errr Rogers Centre is $183 CAD (about $144USD). Average ticket price at Ralph Wilson? $51.24USD. (Source: National Post)

Next problem - the closed dome! The Bills should never play a "home" game indoors. That's not Bills football. Bills fans wanted the dome open. So of course, the dome is closed. The elements are part of the game. I've been to an indoor game there. I saw last season's International Bowl there. It's not the same. The atmosphere is just not the same at all.

3rd problem - Back to the money factor. So it's almost $100 more to see a game in Toronto than in Buffalo. Now Toronto is only about 2 hours out of Buffalo. According to Mapquest, it's about $10 in gas if your car gets about 25 MPG. So now let's say it's you and your buddy going to the game:
  • 2 tickets for Dolphins/Bills in Toronto = $288USD

  • 2 tickets for a game in Buffalo = $102USD

  • Gas to Buffalo from Toronto (return) = $20USD

  • Tolls/border crossing = $5USD

  • Parking in Buffalo = $15USD

  • Parking in Toronto = $15USD

  • Total for Toronto game for 2 people = $303USD

  • Total for Buffalo game for 2 people = $142USD

That's a difference of $161!! That's ridiculous!

Next up - tailgating. Good luck with that in Toronto. Just another way Toronto will kill the atmosphere surrounding Bills football. How many tickets and arrests will happen today? Welcome to Canada; leave your beer at home :(

Next - (oh I can keep going and going) - the CFL. I'm not a CFL fan at all. But Mike Vanderjagt and the Toronto Argos can't be too impressed with this.

Ok I'll stop but seriously keep the Bills in Buffalo. Please!

The Bills make me want to ...gag


Sorry Buffalo but seriously you don't make me want to shout. You don't make me want to sing old songs and replace words with the Bills. You make me want to scream honestly. You started the season so promising and now you're at 5-5 and basically out of the wild card race. I still feel the urge to chalk it up to you don't want to be in Buffalo (totally understandable, but suck it up and deal with it). Win some games. Remember how good it felt the first half of the season. I don't get how you can start the season 5-1 and then drop 4 in a row. You've got 2 easy games coming up and then a hard last 4 weeks. Win the next 2; get your confidence back up and then stop sucking!
