    The LA stuff is just FUD.
    Muggins I understand your frustration there and also the players made comments about it. Sadly, Toronto is a front runner town in that you have to be the "IT" team or at the very least a winning team to get people's attention. However there's another aspect to this that you may not know about and that is, for many many years a lot of people in the Toronto area were Lions and Bears fans long before they were Bills fans. It's just the culture though I will agree with you that it was pitiful how it turned into a quasi road game for the Bills.

      Unless, of course, you're the Maple Leafs.

          Yup. I understand that. Further proof that the Bills shouldn't be wasting their time there. I read a couple fan accounts of the game, it sounded brutal to watch a football game there.
