The 86-year-old Adams was seen throwing an emphatic series of middle fingers from a luxury suite at LP Field in Nashville, Tenn., after the Titans (3-6) had secured the blowout over the Buffalo Bills (3-6), which included 24 straight points in the fourth quarter.

Adams apologized in a statement, saying: "I need to apologize for my actions yesterday near the end of the game. I got caught up in the excitement of a great day, but I do realize that those types of things shouldn't happen. I need to specifically apologize to the Bills, their fans, our fans and the NFL.

What a fitting image the owner provides for such a classless fanbase

The players thought it was funny

“No he didn’t. Did he really? He is a cool owner and it is good to see him around here supporting us. To have an owner like that, it’s cool.” – Stephen Tulloch

"I don’t know if he did it but I condone fun things. If he was having fun doing it then by all means do what you do." – Cortland Finnegan

Titans at their finest.

Why are they celebrating anyway?

They beat a bad team, but the Titans are 3-6. So way to go, Tennessee. You’re only a little bit less mediocre than Buffalo.

Was there any explanation given why he did that?

Were the fans abusive towards him and the Titans?
Is there some longstanding rivalry between Adams and Wilson? They are both long time AFL guys, right?

Final thought……..what a jackass.
