May Day 10

I disagree with the issue translating so quickly to the NHL. You have to remember, the NBA, with a couple 'big fish' you are an elite team. It is much harder and much more of a science building a winning NHL roster. Top NBA players typically have a lot more opportunity for outside earnings than the NHL players. LeBron James makes more than double his NBA salary in endorsements I bet.

Early 90s dance/party music was a pretty bad look. Real McCoy, etc... stuff you'd hear on Kiss 98.5 Bone Thugs N Harmony was pretty awful and Boyz 2 Men was bad too.

It looks like he will sign with the Blackhawks. I would love for him to come here. Im holding out hope. Chicago has indicated that signing Toews and Kane is their highest priority and it may be done next Tuesday. One FA isnt the same/wouldnt ruin it though. If its just Lebron playing/winning with the kids and a couple complementary guys, then I think it would be awesome. If the Sabres got Crosby, Ovechkin, Shea Weber, and Lundqvist in one offseason and went from a garbage team to 4 Finals appearances and 2 wins, it would be cheapened a lot **** ****-hockey is a different animal and an individual in basketball is >>>>> an individual in hockey

Great decade of music IMO and the whole industry lost its way right around the explosion of the internet and cell phones just after the turn of the millennium. So many obvious choices, dont want to list. One I dont see listed here, which was a great 1-hit-wonder is: Harvey Danger - Flagpole Sitta

Im much more cynical than the average fan admittedly. I dont have too much stake in it, but adopted the Cavs as my NBA team to go along with the Indians, (who have always been my MLB team and Im a legit fan with almost as much emotion as Sabres/Bills)... But I dont know. Cleveland is like Buffalo where its a lot about the chase. When it does happen its going to be a world-stopping celebration/event. I think it would be greatly cheapened if a "super team" just suddenly decided to come play for the Sabres, they became overwhelming favorites, and they won a cup (much like what happened with the Heat).

As a fan of Cleveland sports for the most part, Lebron can pi$$ off.

I dont think it would work quite like that. They definitely want JBJ's team to bid. Raises the value of all teams if the Bills sell for more. Once bids are in, maybe Goodell steps in and tells the trust and Pegula that they will approve Pegula unanimously and immediately under the stipulation the GTA market is not protected,

i love this guy. He nails it

What price is there (if any) to preserving their Patriarch's legacy and their family being viewed by an entire region as "family". The Wilsons would be honored any time they came to town, and I will be willing to bet we will see a street named after RW and a statue once we know where the Bills will be playing long term.

Basically, that says "Stop calling us, Wawrow"

I wouldnt be shocked if they had a silent deal to expand to Toronto later this decade.... but they do (as does the trust) want the Toronto group(s) to bid in good faith as it will drive up the price as well as all the other franchises' worth And Goodell would want that boogeyman public. Also adds urgency to the stadium cause

never trust(ed) Goodell and the owners in this. Until this franchise is locked in, Ill remain terrified

He cant oh wait, he can

oh yeah, I agree. I consider them the biggest threat and a very real one.

Tanenbaum is worth just north of $1 Billion, Bon Jovi $300 Million, Leiweke isnt billionaire level. MLSE as a whole is only worth like $2.5 Billion. Pegula should beat that group Unless they have a sugar daddy

looking forward to an outdoor football stadium to replace that "thing". Ill definitely czech out ACC games. If a game were moved to RWS, count me in.

This really makes me nervous. I dont trust either of those dudes* *Goodell is an extension of the 31 NFL owners

Definitely noticed we hit some milestone

thats always been the issue. And why I think it is absolutely critical Pegula is engaged by the sale. He is the kind of guy who seems to think big and set the market himself.

I really hope it all doesnt go dark for a few months. It seems like we are being fed a positive nugget to chew on once a week or so. I need it for my sanity.

he bidding stage is likely clearly defined, and probably includes multiple rounds.

The Three Stooges

Pegula turfed everyone when the results didnt happen. He started rough, but seems to have learned on the fly. He tried to bring in the top FAs but they wouldnt sign (Richards, Suter, Parise, Doan). Now they are looking to stock up on drafted stars who are forced to be here and then once they are good, the top FAs will want to come here. pretty simple, and correct philosophy. The way the Sabres (and Bills) go with shooting for 8th -10th place is poison for the long-term. The foundation finally collapsed. Pegula wants to win. No doubt. Also he has shown a willingness to do what it takes financially. But we are going to root for trump because a stupid catch phrase on a terrible scripted reality show? Who is to say a willingness to quickly "fire" people every time things arent going your way is the right path?
