If you haven't heard this, someone in the Buffalo area decided to go to Bills CB Leodis McKelvin's house and spray paint 25-24 on his lawn. McKelvin was the cat who decided to run out a kick instead of downing it in the endzone ... and who promptly fumbled away the ball 25 yards down the field.
The final score was 25-24.
There was also an obscenity spray painted there (don't know what it was yet). It is scary that this stuff happens. We live in a different age where security isn't a joke. Stuff that could fly a decade or so ago can't now.
Do people forget that Redskins safety Sean Taylor had a group of young adults come to his Miami home in order to rob him. Taylor was, unexpectedly to the thieves, there and ended up losing his life when he was shot. Since then, NFL players really don't want anyone coming up to their homes.
Buffalo has a passionate fanbase. With all that's going on in the world, that city doesn't have much to hold on to and the Bills are one of their pride and joys. You have to love when fans live and die with every game. But, people, that's a figure of speech. Look, I'm a sports nut! Half my wardrobe is sports jersey's, t-shirts and sweaters. But you cannot define your life by the teams you love. You cannot treat people bad because the team you love lost in a heartbreaking fashion. Being a die-hard fan doesn't give you the right to disrespect people.
