[edit] Pondering AfD...
Frankly, I don't quite think the Buffalo Curse deserves its own article... though, as an upstate New Yorker, the curse makes me very sad, and I wish the national media paid our region more attention. :D
But frankly, I sorta think this should be merged with Drought (sports) and redirect there... --Jaysweet 00:36, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
- Incidentally, the Buffalo Curse wasn't even mentioned on Drought (sports), I was the one who added it. heh.... ;D
- Someday... it won't be '07, I'm afraid, but someday, 'dem Bills are gonna win themselves a friggin' Superbowl!! heh... --Jaysweet 00:38, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Questionable goal?
I can't remember any questionable goal in the 2006 game against Carolina. Afertig 19:10, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Origin of curse?
I found the article interesting. However don't curses usually have origins...what is the supposed origin of the curse? I read the link to the Ban Johnson action in 1901 but that seems to be more of an effect not a possible cause of the legend. --—Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.139.178.142 (talk • contribs)
- I am not superstitious and don't believe in curses, but I always like to think that the origin of the curse was the infamous Fog game in 1975. A bat flew across the field and one of the Sabres swung at it with his stick, killing it -- believe to be the only time in history that an animal was killed during an NHL game.
- Of course this (and the entire article) are complete hogwash, but it's fun to think about ;D --Jaysweet 20:52, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
