very unlikely. IF Dallas wins, it will be a LOT closer. Dallas only managed 30
points against the 49ers, while the Bills managed to score 34.

Why? Because our offense can pick apart any defense it cares to, no matter how
good. Do the ALL-PRO names Reed, Lofton, Kelly, Thomas, Ballard, Hull mean
anything to you? The Bills offense is so effective, its scary. Our Back-ups
scored the most points in a single quarter ever in a playoff game. Also,
Emmitt Smith. So What? The Bills have shut down Barry Foster twice and Barry
Sanders once over the last two years. Troy Aikman? Marino is a better QB with
a better passing game surrounding him. Yet he was destroyed by
the Bills. Granted in the first thirty two minutes of these playoffs the Bills
were outscored 35-3, but since then have outscored their opponents 98-16,
giving up seven of those when the game vs. Miami was already won. 69 of those
points were scored by our second team offense. I think rather on relying upon
your grotesque, unfounded personal feelings, you should think about the facts
sometime. It is exactly your kind of Bullshit that Louis Oliver foamed from
his lips, and look what happened to his team. I think before you shoot of your
damn mouth you ought to have something substantial to back it up. Beating
Denver is no great feat, esp. Elway-less Broncos. Beating the Seahawks
shouldn't even be counted. That's like Bills fans saying the Bills are the
Best team because the beat the Patriots. Three of the four teams you named the
Bills have beaten in the playoffs, WHEN IT COUNTED, over the last three years,
destroying the Radiers, the Chiefs and the Broncos. So shut up. You should be
thanking your lucky stars that Dallas even made it to the Super Bowl,
considering the Stiff competition you so nobly speak of. All I can say is,
SHUT UP!! you can brag all you want to when you've been to the championship
game 4 of 5, winning three in a row, having defeated every team in the NFL
over the last three years. You Can brag IF, and this is a VERY BIG IF, you win
the superbowl.

What, do you own them?

 Maybe in Texas, and a few other small markets.

Hardly! Remember this quote from SI from the punter of the Oilers after
botching a field goal (he was the holder): "Just as we walked out onto the
feild, I mean EXACTLY
then, it started to rain. I asked the ref to wipe the ball off as it is
standard procedure, and he replyed "Play Ball." Then, as the ball was snapped,
a gust of wind, just strong enough to carry the ball out of my reach, came up
out of nowhere." That FG would have put Houston up 38-31, and their last FG
would have been the game winner. I don't know how much closer you can get to a
Supernatural intervention in a football game, unless Jesus himself became your
starting QB.
