    This might annoy people but there needs to be a thread for those who dragged their asses out to Buffalo to see that disaster. Let me just say, no matter how miserable you are, you have company. There were some absolutely devastated faces walking out of that stadium today and I feel for them.

    Whether you drove up 6 hours from Jersey, 8 hours from
    Long Island , or just an hour from Rochester , this game was absolutely heartbreaking. I must say 90% of the Bills fans we met were awesome and very hospitable, and the tailgate environment was unparalleled. I will go back next year if I can.

    With that being said, I'm sitting at a bar outside of buffalo right now lamenting with other passing jets fans and I feel the need to reach out to my fellow travelers. Nothing I can say to change the result of the game, just a shout out to all the Jets fans who made the trip and left devastated with a long trip home.
    I don't know how the team moves forward, but props not "probs" to everyone who came out to support this team and left heartbroken. Anybody who was at the game knows how it felt and I'm sure you felt it even on TV.
    Be good jets fans, I wanna say "next year" but that's bullshit. I won't get over this one until we finally bring the "Vlt to the nyj" as champ might say.

    I had friends make the trip up last night. I wouldn't be able to stomach the drive back down after a loss like that. Honestly glad I stayed home, win or lose.

    Your team just got whipped pretty good to end the season and you're in one of the most miserable cities on this planet, hours away from home. Cannot be good for your state of mind.

    Remember, if you kill some obnoxious Bills fan shitbird and stuff the body in the snow, no one will find it for a long, long time.

    I can't fathom the long travel back home after that loss and in that weather.

    Can't even hate the bills fans. They were totally hospitable , at least 90% of them were, which is the most you can ask of a football fan base, half of them were rooting for the jets either for a draft pick or they liked Fitzpatrick, most of them almost accepted defeat when we were driving before he threw that horrible pick in the end zone. We just gave the season away.
