Wide Right

What are you curious about?

Picture this: Super Bowl XXV January 27, 1991, Buffalo Bills vs NY Giant. My parents are hosting a Super Bowl party to cheer on our home team the Buffalo Bills. It’s the end of the game and we are standing around my parents television, holding hands and praying that Scott Norwood kicks the winning field goal. The kick is wide right and the Bills lost. Moments later the Super Bowl champion NY Giants are seen wearing their Superbowl champion tee-shirts. Did you ever wonder what the NFL does with the losing team’s Super Bowl champion tee-shirts? I mean obviously they have to haul ass and get them out of the locker room before the losers walk in. A few years ago at a social gathering, my husband and I had a conversation about what happens to the losers tee-shirts. Someone suggested they were shipped to a third world country. So, someone in a third world country believes the Buffalo Bills have won four straight Super Bowls? I have so many curiousities meandering through my brain on a daily basis but this one haunts me. Will the Buffalo Bills EVER win a Super Bowl?? I bet you didn’t know that the writer, “that nurse” of this blog thatnursewrites is a member of #BillsMafia. I bleed red and blue. I was born and raised in Buffalo. I do not live there anymore but my brother and my parents do. Every year I “Billieve” and at the end of the season when the Bills are knocked out of the playoffs, after my obscenities from the loss are no longer lingering in the atmosphere over my house, I put my big girl panties on and get on with my life.
