MR. AMLAN SATAN: I guess this '24-season for variances was fan-adjective hype.
READER: Many teams streaked and many claimed stake (rightly) for Lombardi.
MR. AMLAN SATAN: My Buffalo 'force' got MVP and video-game cover art image.
READER: Yeah, your new-gen Bills-QB was MVP and video-game cover art man.
MR. AMLAN SATAN: Bills downed rival Chiefs in the regular season as well.
READER: Chiefs were spicy and have become Buffalo's new AFC-rival, no?
MR. AMLAN SATAN: My Bills have lost AFC titles to the Chiefs in the '20s.
READER: Bills are heartbreak central (Facebook-like!).



Amlan took his new white auto (mod-classic) around the New York state interviewing fans he chatted with on the cyber-highway while blogging (liberally-now) about how the '24 American football season made jars for Buffalo Bills 'stuff' of competition and also heartbreak (sure). He wondered if the Buffalo football 'force' was fated never to get a Lombardi vehicle (Selfie-like).



Mr. Satan recounted boyhood years ('90s) trekking to Buffalo's town for Xmas family-friends gatherings, rooting for the AFC-powered Bills in a string of years that rendered only poor Super Bowl heart-strings for consecutive losses (wow). As an adult/writer/fan, Amlan continued to think Xmas in NY had nothing to 'gift' to the Bills fans seeking some pre-January light for things of leviathan/uncertainty (hmmm).



MR. AMLAN SATAN: I used to play video-games as a kid, simulating Bills things!
READER: Now, your son plays Xbox-things simulating new-gen Buffalo sadness.
MR. AMLAN SATAN: Hey, hey...NY-fans always appreciate synthetics-jitters!
READER: Maybe Buffalo's the kind of team/town that shan't see champions.
MR. AMLAN SATAN: That's quite possibility, but '24 gave me a new language.
READER: What's it?
MR. AMLAN SATAN: Buffalo's Downs.
