Not sure how to start this, 3 of my grandparents were born in Italy. Of course, I'm not offended when I hear Bills Mafia. I actually think it's funny. It's just weird in this day and age when you can't say shit and hear people say that. I don't normally listen to this pregame shit, but yeah, it's funny how many times they say mafia. But you know what, It actually feels good to have people take a little dig on your race and not have someone come out and get all pissed off lol. I'm proud.
There only seems to be one group who is always offended.
It's not Italians. It's not Irish. It's not Poles. It's not Germans. It's not Spanish. Hell, it's not even American Indians (the white virtue signalers have coopted their feelings).
What I say to that group is lighten up, grow a thicker skin, and come join the rest of us. The world would be a much better, less uptight, place.

You got it, bro! You're a smart man. I'm a part-time gambler and full-time mob historian lol.
I'm hoping no group or anybody makes a big deal about this. But I can see it happening, especially if the Bills make it to the Super Bowl and they don't anything else to talk or write about. I ditto what Michelangelo says. It's just fun and entertainment. I think the best case scenario would be some group start saying they're offended, etc. And then mob bosses past and present get together and shoot their own public service-like Super Bowl commercial, with something like, "Why youse get upset about this mafia thing.Lighten up people, we all know there's no such thing".
As an Italian American, I find this thread to be offensive, I'm not sure how I'm going to be able to sleep at night
I'm still have nightmares about Sonny getting gunned down at the toll booth, that's just not right

That scene was all about not losing one's temper and lettingthe emotions get the best of you which is what made Michael the more ideal Godfather. Have to use your noggin and be more cerebral.

BillsMafia leaving Tampa disappointed
Buffalo lost a 33-27 heartbreaker in overtime to Tampa Bay and dropped to 7-6 in a muddled AFC playoff race.
The Bills currently own the seventh and final spot in the postseason. FiveThirtyEight and The New York Times list Buffalo's playoff chances at 67% and 65%, respectively. That's a drop from 78% and 75% before Week 14's slate of games. Buffalo, who has lost five of its last eight games, would've had a 90% chance at the postseason if it pulled off the comeback against Tampa Bay.
