Barbershop Quartet

There's also a barbershop quartet called The Buffalo Bills (barbershop quartet). I'm not sure the football team should be displaced by a disambiguation page, but I'd like to include a link to the quartet. Any suggestions as to where would be appropriate? -- Ventura 04:33, 2004 Jun 14 (UTC)

I added a fairly compact disambig header at the top, as such is the thing to do when there aren't enough major alternate meanings for a separate {disambiguation) page. -- Hadal 23:18, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Thank you! Ventura 20:43, 2004 Aug 25 (UTC)

Jacksonville Jaguars rivalry

I know that the Marrone led Jaguars had bad blood with the Bills, but that rivalry was 2 games and was over pretty quickly. Do the Jaguars really deserve a rivalry section? I don't think the fanbase has a problem specifically with the Jaguars anymore than any other team, nor do I think the players still have bad blood against the Jaguars.

I agree that the rivalry was short-lived and is not thought of as one today. The text of the section seems to agree.

Even if it should be kept, it needs to be updated to include their 2023 game. Rocfan275 (talk) 13:56, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
