May Day 10

This moment is the best i have felt about the bills future in like 15 years

I feel like this is an intentional leak so El paguel can mark his territory

Best case scenario. El pegual isn't the guy to sit around and wait for the value and get outbid. He is the one guy in our corner who will set the value

I believe it is a lot of things. The most vocal people who say they wont go to a game because the atmosphere are the same people who wouldnt go anyway. It reminds me of the non-hockey fans who feel the need to criticize fighting in hockey as if they would watch it. Drama queens like Schopp and the Bulldog. It may be slightly worse. But its the product of the team IMO. When I go to concerts, I will have a bunch to drink, whatever, have fun... but if its an act I care about and want to preserve the memories... and not have to go to the bathroom... I will limit myself to 1 or 2 drinks all day. I can see this being true with the Bills games. If its a playoff game, or they are an exciting team gunning for New England... I would likely lay off and take it all in.

Isnt concrete one of the most durable and everlasting man-made substances? (if not the most?)

ohmanohmanohman

a guy from Boston quietly broke the story in November. Then nothing for awhile and it really heated up in January/February

I think Leino came from all the newly found dollars and Richards not signing with buffalo and D'Arcy and pegula going after the next best fa in the worst possible year for that Holding onto ruff was D'Arcys worst crime imo. With a new voice they may have gotten more from the talent from 07 to 13 The decision this year to keep the prospects up while getting their doors blown off in front of a vocal hateful home crowd was also poor and likely what did him in.

people in Buffalo wouldnt cuddle to that. No matter how warm and cozy Bon Joves/MLSE act.

can this be related to the NYS putting a move on getting the engineers in identifying a stadium site?

yup. This is the most important thing x1,000,000. Im excited about the season, but it all really takes a back seat to all this ownership and facility issues. Its been a dark cloud for about 15-20 years and to imagine it could be lifted, and the Bills and Sabres likely safe for my lifetime would be too much to handle.

Connecticut, no sales after 9PM Saturday and all day Sunday

I would be down with travelling to a Bills game in Jacksonville with a group to occupy one of those.

Golisano was at the cap every year and they even had to maneuver every dime on call-ups so they didnt go over. Sabres will have to maneuver to get to the cap floor next season. I love Pegula and he is the best case scenario, but all the over the top dramatics on Golisano are misguided.

After the game would have been pretty awesome, especially after a victory...

Botanical Gardens is cool

I would think about utilizing this if they offered a couple compelling things. Entertainment wise and fun-wise. We also may need a smoking area as my friends who smoke will not want to go in early without. if this just entails buying a $8 beer and going to my seat to watch a blank field or punting practice while 20 security guards are breathing down my neck, Ill choose the lots.

I hesitated to include ralph as it was a good arc. That was decent... but I really expected a new "villian" to show and he was never really replaced.

The thing that I took away was that many middle to late main plot issues such as ralph, steve buscemi, Jackie Jr season, gay guy, marriage split (then back together)? The feds, Christopher's ambition, the nyc family, etc all kind of faded away or ended abruptly and unsatisfactorily. The main thing I kept tuning in for was to see how it all would be wound together at the shows terminal and how Tony would be done in by all this in the end (or prevail). But instead we got a tepid final season and the grand finale was Tony ordering onion rings and getting randomly shot by some guy in a members only jacket? And the only way to figure that out was to read people discussing and arguing theories on the internet.

1st 2 seasons of Sopranos was great, among the best. The rest was garbage filled with poor plotting, loose/untied ends, and a disappointing end to most characters as well as the show.

They did put it exactly in the spot Ivor Wynne was. They just turned it 90 degrees. They played their games last year in Guelph.

Can someone please paraphrase any important/interesting parts for those with no audio?

The 1st 2 rounds come here every 3-4 years, Im unsure if they are worthy of a 60K+ seat venue... Regionals were here once I believe? Maybe 1x every 8-10 years would be realistic?

someone earlier said "100+" which started the inventory of possibilities. What concerts would play there? I dont think anyone does stadiums... maybe some country acts, but do they sell out stadiums North of Kentucky? I agree though it would be used more than RWS and Im sure NYS will make sure of that before providing bucks.

Stadium concerts dont really exist. Especially with a Buffalo venue as I could see it being bypassed for Toronto if its the one tour (U2) who does it. My hope is also the Waterfront will have a permanent brick and mortar amphitheatre before long. I think we have: 8 Bills Games 2 Bills Preseason Games 0-2 Bills Playoff Games 5-6 Bulls Games. Things would have to change and we would need to spur some interest, the program would have to take off and maybe upgrade in Conference. Much like temple/rutgers. I would certainly attend 1 NCAA Bowl Game of some sort, likely on a 3rd tier. 0-1 Maybe crowbar switching every other season of the MAC Championship Game with Detroit. If UB not in the MAC, likely an extra home game. 1 WNY High School Championships (lets face it, hundreds attend) 1 State High School Championships (not sure how many attend in Syracuse, but Im sure the State will want to move it to their new toy) Once in a lifetime/very rare events: NCAA Basketball Regionals NCAA Basketball Final Four Wrestlemania "Outdoor" Hockey Games So optimistically we have about 20 events with only the Bills games really selling out. UB games currently get between 8k-15k I believe and even a Bowl Game might see only 30-40K (Id be there!) Those rare events would be huge sellouts at inflated pricing and bring in many tourists. They have that RV show in RWS or at least they did. That is one convention. It would also be great if they can hold/plan some sort of giant convention/woodstock of outdoor activities such as hunting/fishing/etc. I would also say it would be a PRIMO spot for a big UFC card if NYS ever legalizes events here. It is HUGE in Canada and that stadium would easily be filled. But still. Nowehere near 100 or even close to the big ticket events Jerry's World gets.
