  1. This post is so psycho/stupid, it really should be removed, but here I am...

     

    Wanna place any blame on AM's agent and/or the Jerry Jones type owners of the sports world who pay players too much and breed this holdout insanity for agents to play with.

     

    All players should grow their hair long in support of Poz.

  2. The Toronto "Buffalo Bills" - This one makes sense because "Buffalo Bills" is not just our city, it's William Cody's nickname. Works as a dual-city thing, or as a team nickname.

     

    The Buffalo Bills of Niagara - Eh? Not enough "Toronto" to satisfy them.

     

    The Buffalo Bills of the Golden Crescent - Too many words...same problem.

     

    PTR

     

     

    I thought the name came from the fact that we're NY's only team and NY has some of the highest BILLS in the nation.

  3. So you're saying that ONE Bills fan doing this supports your contention that Cortland is Bills territory. Ok, sure. That seems logical.

     

    And you're taking one reply to the thread as God's NFL word on the fan base breakdown in Cortland is evenly split between the two NJ teams and the NY team? Seems logical.

     

    I travel every inch of this state (sans Hamptons, Harlem and Grider St. in Buffalo). I know what's what and who's cheering who.

  4. The Bills fan seems like a douche or an idiot.

     

    I think its Classic and in good grace and comic spirit of defending one's territory (Bills Territory).

     

    I think you must be a stiff. Do you wear a short-sleeve Oxford shirt and a tie (at the same time)?

  5. Just for the record... the fresh paved roads had been in the works for the past three years and won't be completed til Nov.

     

    I wasn't referring to the roads being re-paved because of Jets camp, simply (fresh Tar) as one of the initial things you'll notice upon embarking on your drive thru Cort.

     

    Signs were done out of the county budget. County allocated $45K to fund different things including shuttle service. So, not much taxpayer money thrown at this.

     

    Where might you think the county money comes from (bake sale)? $45K for Cortland County ain't chump change... intrudes into the welfare web. My point is that unions suck and are to blame for MADE IN CHINA and NYS DOT has blatent issues with wasting taxpayers money (County crews too). I drove into town on SR-281. There's waste anywhere there taxpayers money being spent and there's waste anywhere you see DOT workers and/or unions. I call it out (as it is). As you were.

  6. Syracuse and Binghamton stations, which are what is shown in Ithaca, have - at least until this year - shown the Bills over the Jets. So I wonder how long you have been out of Ithaca. It is true that WBNG showed the Jets over the Bills in 1998, but they quickly switched back the following year.

     

    You can get Bills games on the radio and not the Giants and Jets games. If Ithaca is not a Bills town, then it is not because it is full of hippies and college students from NYC.

     

    Well said. Amen brother.

  7. This article from the Cortland Standard alludes to less than expected attendance. They have not used a secondary parking lot on campus yet and a shuttle bus was cancelled after 3 days when not one single person used it. The main lot holds 800-900 cars. Here is the article:

     

     

     

    As for this whole infringement thing, I have spent a lot of time in Cortland over the years as my wife's family lives there and this is by no means Bills country. There are some Bills fans to be sure, but probably equal or greater number of Giants and Jets fans. Honestly, I really doubt the presence of a training camp will make a die hard fan of another team switch sides.

     

    You're wrong about that man. Gints fans (in this area) yes, Jets really have no fan base, except LI/NYC/NJ Gint fans who can't get tiks and transplants.

     

    You saw this- correct)?

     

    There was an incident over the weekend in which a Bills fan, adorned in full Bills attire and a box of TO cereal, got in line to get autographs from a few of the players. The players wouldn't give him autographs, and one of the players point blank told him that it was disrespectful to the Jets players for him to show up in Bills attire. The newspaper had stated a few times that if you expect an autograph, the first thing is you better be wearing Jets attire.

  8. i don't think the Bills really care about fans in CNY, the population is declining rapidly and there is no industry for corporate sponsors. the jets wanted to go to cortland because they wanted to go some place "secluded." the bills will continue to market itself to the expanding and successful southern ontario region not the depressing central new york area.

     

     

    You must drink Utica Club.

     

    (It is) Keeping the Central NY region, Thruway Corridor and Southern tier inhabitants interested in the Bills that will anchor the team in Buffalo. The more the franchise probes outaward towards Toronto, the more we risk loosing it (the team). There's half-a-million people in the greater Syracuse area. You don't think mgt. cares...? ...get real dude.

     

    Try drinking the Saranac instead and perhps it'll promote clearer thinking.

  9. Drove thru Cortland yesterday. They're taking this Jets thing quite seriously. The first thing one will notice, aside from plenty of fresh paved roads and the usual welfare fakers walking with limps and fat girls pushing strollers while smoking, is that they convinced the NYS DOT into hanging several JETS signs on the roads.

     

    (On a tangent) I'm sure those siges cost we taxpayers $500 or so each to make and another $1,500 for some 8-9 unionized boys to hang 'em up... another $1,500 for the overpaid unionized to take 'em down.

     

    But anyway, several businesses + restaurants have welcome JETS signs (even down south in Dryden). It appears to be bringing some commerce to this typical depressed area and there also appears to be enthusiastic acceptance to he color green at his juncture. Someone built a post a few months ago regarding this infringing on Bills territory. Several disagreed. Here's news for you- Infringment in progress. The Jets will be winning over fans in an area generally dominated by Royal Blue & Crimson Red. I don't like it. I think it might be a good idea for the Bills to continue the doppler effect marketing (regionalization), and transfer training camp to Syracuse.
