dwight in philly

those events are worthy, but dont seem like permanent events.. sporadic..lots not seem worthy of a 75,000 seat stadium.. i saw a senior prom listed..if you assume there will be 10 football games and maybe a regional, a frozen four, but they happen every 5-10 yrs at best..

i am curious as to what other events a downtown domed stadium could hold. i am not trying to be a wise guy, but i hear all this talk about "year round events".. i really cant think of any "sure things" that would justify a covered stadium..

analysis? opinion? whatever you deem worthy of calling it, i happen to agree with it and am aware many disagree..

very well stated.. one of the best analysis i have seen on here regarding the stadium situation..

this topic has been discussed at length and rightfully so... as for me, hard to really offer an opinion.. i am torn.. love the tailgating obviously at the ralph, but also realize the economics of today's NFL.. like anybody else who loves the area, i want to see it prosper and a downtown stadium just adds to the mix of buffalo's re-development.. but my biggest fear is the design.. again, that has been discussed , i am firmly opposed to a dome, just my opinion, if i was king of the world i would want an open air stadium like the steelers or seahawks stadium.. with a little character.. the idea of hosting a super bowl is a pie-in- the- sky idea.. not going to happen.. all that being said.. retro fit the ralph..

AGREE!.. no red helmets..

not a helluva lot difference between that and the ralph..

i like petty, just afraid his stock will rise, but even if it does, grab him..just not sure whether to pull the trigger with our first pick .

i know! was hoping for that tampering pick.. could the jets have "opted out" on marrone for that very reason?

i remember that call, the play, like it was yesterday..witnessing what i saw yesterday really DOES have the feel of a fix.. just my opinion.. one can argue about the validity of the call,(sure seemed like pass interference to me and according to mike periara, the refs got it wrong) totally feel for the lions, their fans.. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/writer/jason-la-canfora/24652025/is-this-the-nfl-ref-czar-on-cowboys-party-bus-irate-nfl-execs-say-yes

domed stadiums are sterile, i am old school, like the elements, it looks like studio football when played in a dome.. as for buffalo hosting a superbowl , not going to happen, and who cares.. when i watch a football game, i am not concerned about economics or if the stadium will spur growth and all that nonsense..

need any more tinfoil?

ABSOLUTELY !it sure does have the feel of something not being right..

i hope you are right, it sure reeks of it after hearing the laconfora report.. really got me PO-ed.. cant stop thinking about it.. hope the bills do pursue it.. and goodell grows a set and fully investigates it.. doesnt cave to the NYC influence..

i agree to an extent about shanahan's "tightness" and any perceived baggage he may have.. but..i am quite sick of going after the "hot coordinator" du-jour.. last time we had success was wade, im sick of greggo, mularkey, .. i know chan and jauron did not fit that , but with the supposed talent on the team, give me an experienced coach at this point.. gase could be the second coming off?? i dont know chip kelly, but unless anyone spots urban meyer at the airport, ill take shanny..

anchor bar or duffs?

are you bringing nate hackett as your O coordinator?

agree for sure, but it would be nice to reflect on a playoff season, discussing players needed, etc, but every 3 years its the same old.. wish they could just get it right for the first time in this century..

what qualifies as a "minority interview" ?? does the rooney rule apply only to african-americans? what about native americans? and of course gay americans..did the NFL ever explain or expand on the rule or define "minority?.. what about women?

as is being mentioned, could the JETS have had an inkling about this? they already did their "rooney rule" interviews.. tampering???

he wasnt the head coach in san diego, and besides if marrone is thinking about "opting out" screw him.. i think, in my opinion, reich would be a perfect fit here..

not worthy of a response
