MR. AMLAN SATAN: I didn't think the '24-football season would be so...rich!

READER: Yeah, many towns/teams streaked well (KC, DC, Philly, Lions, Vikes).

MR. AMLAN SATAN: My Buffalo-town lost to KC in the conference title show!

READER: Didn't Bills lose-out to the KC-Chiefs in '20 too, Mister Fan?

MR. AMLAN SATAN: Yes, and '20 was the inception of Bills' division-win run!

READER: These Bills have 5 whopping division titles in a row, Mister Fan (ok).

MR. AMLAN SATAN: The '24-Bills also saw MVP and video-game cover art laurel.

READER: I saw that Madden-cover featuring the new-gen QB who got the MVP.

MR. AMLAN SATAN: Josh Allen...he was due for the '24 honor, reader (sure!).

READER: Sorry your heartbreak-Buffalo lost that final tip for a Lombardi-cap.

MR. AMLAN SATAN: I cheered the '90s Bills who lost 4 Bowls consecutive (ok).

READER: New York residents/writers (like you!) are football Facebook-like?

MR. AMLAN SATAN: For American show-tell, sure (thanx).

Amlan remembered his 'dark' boyhood football TV fan-years in Buffalo-town, when the '90s heartbreak Bills lost 4 Super Bowls in a row; and he contoured this blues with the '20s heartbreak Bills who earned a whopping 5 division titles in a row through this 21st-Century decade (wow), despite losing once-more to the now-rival KC-Chiefs. The '24-season saw so much variety for stats/streaks for multiple teams shining for Lombardi-trophy vanity; but alas, despite Buffalo defeating rival-KC in the regular '24 season, they lost (once-more) to the Chiefs in the AFC-title show (damn). Amlan Satan thought his writing/blogging for New York skylines/smiles was somehow destined to be a blues or Obsidian-black for things of sentiment and shopping (for the Ego!).

As a boy, Mr. Satan used to synthesize '90s Bills offense-flares with Tecmo video-game screens; and as an adult, he enjoyed re-creating Bills wins over rival-KC for '24 jars on the Madden video-game platform (ok). Why wouldn't the stat-'shades' friendly Buffalo-force of football eclipse that final-top for a Lombardi-trophy so many-times sought (Facebook-like)?

WAITRESS: Lemon cake for you, mister.

SATAN: Thanx, waitress-lady.

WAITRESS: You scribbled a face-sketch of my person on your napkin.

SATAN: What do you think...eases my New York football blues, waitress-lady.

WAITRESS: Bills fan, eh?

SATAN: Obviously!

WAITRESS: Hey, they looked real good in '24, no?

SATAN: I know...they even downed the red-hot KC this season (super cool).

WAITRESS: Football's shores (Facebook-like).

SATAN: Surely (for leviathan/uncertainty).
