I ask you to lower your disdain for Buffalo for a month. My brother’s wife is from Buffalo and this isn’t an exaggeration in the slightest but her family and friends are the nicest human beings I’ve ever met. So wholesome and generous. They’re tortured souls with the Bills.

Hell, they got married up there and during my best man speech the theme was about how my brother through countless sports failures would always tell me “we’re losers and we’ll always be losers.” This had the Buffalo side walk right into my plan by a guy yelling out “we know all about that, we’re from Buffalo!” So that’s when I started down the “that’s why they’re perfect for each other.” The speech ended with me saying that with his wife by his side he’ll never be a loser again. The Eagles won the Super Bowl four months later so I’m sitting here hoping the Bills get to experience that also.

I can corroborate this from my somewhat brief interactions with Buffaloians, which mostly came through various fishing trips to the area. They can obviously be a bit rowdy, but they always seemingly mean well.

We briefly lived upstate in Rochester when I was but a wee lad. I still talk to my old neighbors and their children. Legit some of thr nicest people on the planet.

That said, I think a lot of people's opi ions are formed by these idiots doing high dives onto flaming tables. Those are upstate equivalents of Phillys "Torts will fix the Flyers, and if they can't work with Torts, they are too soft to be here.", a small but loud minority.
 
"The secondary is not very good" is a surprisingly candid commentary by Mike Tirico. Normally they use more colorful language to relay that message, haha.

I don’t watch network tv outside of sports and haven’t in a long time, so half of these commercials look like parodies. Deal or No Deal Island?!

I think you'd be shocked to see how low it has gotten. The good news is that you could find out in less than five minutes by tuning into "9-1-1" or one of the NCISes or one of the Chicagos or one of the FBIs or one of the Law and Orders. In fact, you don't even have to do that much - just pronounce the name of TV super producer Dick Wolf with emphasis on his first name. The dick wolves are in charge of network TV.
