  1. join a fantasy league and get some additional new favorite players...
  2. newest hottest restaurant in town is Mike A's at the Lafayette (pricey) http://www.buffalonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20120914/GUSTO/120919527/1031 if you want to be wow'd reasonable: #1- Hutch's on Delaware #2- Left Bank on Rhode Island
  3. ABSOLUTELY YES......berry has been chirping since it happened......i dare say there will be a bounty...err incentive.....errr money on the board.....errr reward.....errr money on the floor.....
  4. i dont think the bills are going anywhere..... having said that, if the bills are worth $820 million (Forbes) in buffalo, the same franchise is probably worth 50% more ($1.2 Billion) in Los Angeles. some penalty/poison pill of $100-200 million is not going stop a group from buying and moving the team. as long as we support our team.... demonstrated by attendance.....this team goes nowhere..... including toronto, we are the 4th largest market in the NFL. that is good enough to keep it here.
  5. it seems unlikely ralph would not pass along his wealth to his immediate family and future generations. ralph does have a plan....to have his estate sell to the highest bidder.... although anything is possible.... i still feel our bills are going nowhere.
  6. all you need is every man, women and child living in erie county (est 1,000,000) to come up with $1,000 each.
  7. my wild guess is moonlighting some "game worn" jerseys ...
  8. Aaron Rodgers, the league MVP, says illegal contact rule isn’t being enforced the right way. is he a crybaby too ?? http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/09/13/rodgers-says-illegal-contact-rule-isnt-being-enforced-the-right-way/
  9. yes...quality of life......course, i'm a +26 year season ticket holder......cant think of too many other activities where me, my wife and son can spend time together either at a game live or around the television where everyone is actually enjoying it. hard to be in any social setting, friends or business, without the topic of the bills coming up. sure, it hurts when when lose, but our day will come again....i'll try not to overstate this, but if the bills ever left town, it would be the final nail in the coffin for this area, for many many people....
  10. interesting read...... Are the large public expenditures on new stadiums a good investment for cities? Does hosting a major sports team have benefits? Although public subsidies for professional sports teams are controversial, the answer to these questions may well be yes. In this article, Jerry Carlino and Ed Coulson report the results of their 2003 study: When quality-of-life benefits are included in the calculation, building new stadiums and hosting an NFL franchise may indeed be a good deal for cities and their residents. http://www.phil.frb.org/research-and-data/publications/business-review/2004/q2/brq204jc.pdf
  11. his name was in the title of the article: "Jerry Sullivan: Super Mario gets a reality check"..... fact: super mario got DOMINATED by a no name player..... fact: Rodney Harrison & Damien Woody were alot harsher on mario than jerry was. fact: mario will respond, he is to good of a player. analogy: the bills Fitzpatrick was the least sacked QB in the league last year.....NOT because we have the best O-line......but because fitz threw the ball in under 3 seconds most times......the jets and sanchez used the same strategy against us.
  12. John Wawrow is one of the crown jewels of Two Bills Drive......unlike most in here, his sources are first hand....he talks directly to the decision makers. i assume you know he is an Associated Press (AP) writer. i think it is shameful the way some folks treat others.
  13. at the earliest, chit will hit the fan during the bye week......barring injury, the bills do not give up on fitz til then, even if we are 2-5. besides, it will probably take that long for TJ to learn megaminds playbook.
  14. lets say that erie county would get back $100 million if a team left before the 15 years is up. lets assume that Forbes value for the bills is correct at $820 million. do you really think an ownership group from L.A. would not be willing to eat that penalty and pay $920 ???.....any so called penatly/poison pill is MEANINGLESS !!!......having said that, our Bills are going nowhere !!!
  15. it's very political.....bottom line, poloncarz is beholding to len lenihan......their preferred erie county democratic chairmen is a lenihan guy.....that is in direct opposition to coumo's choice.....thereore, poloncarz is on cuomo's chit list....it has effected poloncarz's fund raising events and the bills lease.
  16. still master of my domain....
  17. poloncarz is in a political pickle.....he is in the dog house with govenor coumo for NOT supporting coumo's choice (masiello) for the next erie county democratic chairman. no bills deal gets done without coumo.
  18. crybaby ?????.....because, like many others, he pointed out the replacement refs missed some calls ?...not in my book...maybe a little frustrated, because he got dominated, plain and simple......from a backup no less.... i say he responds on the field, he is to good of a player.
  19. step away from the ledge......our beloved are going nowhere......
  20. jets had some guy drafted in the 5th (last year)......Jeremy Kerley.......he did ok last week, just sayin.....
  21. guess the truth hurts..... the bills still suck is alot closer to the truth than golly gee it's only one game.
  22. things to do : #1- Niagara Falls (world class attraction). #2- seeing as your already down there (you can walk from your hotel).....the "canal side", naval park and erie basin marina (all connected) makes for a nice walk. lots of boating and eating options. #3- Albright Knox art gallery, Kleinhans music hall, Shea's theatre and buffalo zoo are all very nice. places to eat: if you want to be wow'd at a reasonable price: #1- Hutch's (on Delaware ave) #2- Left Bank (on Rhode Island st) if you insist on pizza & wings(lots of great choices).....just have them delivered to your room from La Nova. Nightlife: Allen St. ( gabriels gate has great wings). Elmwood Ave (blue monk) great mix of young and old (25-50) extensive beer list. Chippewa (mostly young under 25) hit the chocolate bar Templeton Landing - very near hotel. outdoor seating along marina.
  23. well over half the field knocked out after one game. 64 knocked out 42 still alive
  24. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/09/09/bills-fear-david-nelson-suffered-serious-knee-injury/ UPDATE 7:20 p.m. ET: PFT has learned that the Bills believe Nelson has a torn ACL.
