The Buffalo Bills Season As Told By 'The Office'

'Tis the 2015-2016 Buffalo Bills season and the Bills are officially not making the playoffs, again. This year was an emotional roller coaster for Bills fans. We were promised to make the playoffs, we were promised success. All we got was sadness and bad hangovers.

Here's the recap of this season:

1. Rex Ryan promising that the Buffalo Bills will be in the playoffs this year.

We were pumped, we were ready to go! This is our year!

2. Game 1: Win against the Colts.

Wow, they played really good! Maybe something has changed with this team!

3. Patriots game.

Tom Brady wins again, but we really didn't see this as a surprise. Patriots are sadly very good, but us Bills fans shake it off. It's only game 2.

4. Big win against Miami!

We're back in business baby! Now we're heading in the right direction now.

5. Giants. Game.

This game left Bills fans emotionally damaged. We don't want to remember this game, this game crushed our little Buffalo souls.

6. Titans game. We won, but barely.

Score: 14 to 13. Bills mafia was a little nervous, but still holding out hope for the playoffs.

7. Bengals game.

Brutal. The pain hurts everywhere. The Bengals were an undefeated team at this point of the season, but Bills fans thought there was a chance.

8. London game.

This was suppose to be one of our easier games. Everything that could go wrong, went wrong. Bills fans had to get up so early and watch the game from our laptops. Most of us were still drunk/hungover from the past night, but the result of this game all kept us drinking to numb the pain.

9. Bye week, Hallelujah.

Bills needed to get recharged and work on their defensive skills. Maybe the rest of the season will be different.

10. Games 9 and 10. Wins.

Let's go, baby! Bills are back at it! These games really helped our playoff chances because they were divisional games against the Jets and Dolphins.

11. Games 11 and 12. Losses.

What is happening? Bills fans are getting angry. We want answers. What is happening with this team? Why are they falling apart?

12. Win against the Texans.

After this win, we have a slim chance on being playoff bound. Bills fans are nervous, but optimistic. We can do this! We will break this 15-year-old playoff drought.

13. Game 14 and 15. I don't even want to talk about it.

The Buffalo Bills are officially eliminated from making the playoffs. It has been now 16 years since the Buffalo Bills have entered a post-season. Congratulations playoff drought, you can have a drivers license now.

14. The rest of the season is just a blur.

You don't look forward to Sundays as you used too. The "Shout" song is now a sad melody in your life. The reality has now settled in that you won't be wearing your head-to-toe Bills gear on Sundays again this season. You still wear your Bills apparel around town though, but just more sadly now.

The off season:

You make notes, check player's statistics. You pretend to be the GM and look at all the players that are available for grabs. We can't repeat this season again.

Being a Buffalo Bills fan is not an easy road to travel. You will get picked on by pretty much every team in the league. You will get your heart broken and your dreams crushed, but, in the end, you wear that Bills logo loud and proud.

We cheer every game like they have a winning record. We bleed red, white and blue every Sunday and we aren't afraid of disappointment. We always say, "There's always next year," to keep our spirits alive. Let's see what next season has in store for us.

Let's go Buffalo!

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

St. Thomas Aquinas College

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one. As you meet more and more people over the course of your college career, it seems to be a pattern that you will at some point have that one friend that doesn't live with you, but acts like they do. We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
