  1. I agree. But speculation was that due to the "requirement" of staying in WNY, JBJ and the Toronto group were no longer serious bidders.
  2. As awesome as that would be, I'm afraid the answer is no. FIFA arranges it so each country has their own leagues. So Europe for example, can also have an additional league comprised of all the champions of the various countries. We are stuck with MLS I'm afraid. The quality of it is improving year to year, but it has a long way to go before it is world class.
  3. With some creative scheduling they could probably make this work, and increase their TV revenue at the same time. Keep the same number of games in the season, but expand the calendar time that the season is played. This would give some (if not all, depending on how they want to do it) teams 2 weeks between games. This has the ability to: 1) Account for extra travel time for overseas games. 2) Give players extra time to recover from the inevitable injuries, 3) If they do it properly, they could have some games every Sunday with teams on alternating schedules. Thus putting games on TV more Sundays and increasing the TV revenue. Not sure how well this would work, But my point is, they have options to make overseas teams viable.
  4. The list is posted here, but it isn't there yet. Not sure when they post the list. http://www.buffalobills.com/team/training-camp/autograph-zone.html
  5. That could also be mandated by the bar. Don't want to alienate any potential fan customers.
  6. But makes directv very happy. That's a lot of sunday ticket viewers;)
  7. It is. It would be way overcrowded without tickets due to the people that can go after work.
  8. No stands per se. But they force you to walk through a Bills Store to get from the bus drop off to fields There are food stands though where you can get water and pizza etc.
  9. Perhaps, but older women "know stuff"
  10. The closer field, the football one, is where most of the activity is so you generally don't need to walk the full path of the red line in the picture. One more thing, since you have a 4 year old, right along the red line in the picture about at the end zone of the football field, they have a play area for kids that has football themed games and bouncy house type of stuff for young kids. Kids love it One caveat though, I believe they did a bunch of work there since last camp so the layout could be very different now.
  11. I have lots of relatives that have lived there their entire lives and Erie certainly seems to be Steeler country.
  12. They have in years past. But a lot of times it depends upon who is working security at the tent. I think officially the kid needs to be old enough to be in there on his/her own. But if you are polite and ask I suspect they won't give you a hard time. If it is a very popular player like FredEx you will want to get there plenty early. The players are only in the tent a short time and if the line gets too long for a player they stop allowing people in it.
  13. Yes but be prepared to drop some significant coin and you won't go there right from camp as it is at least business casual dress there.
  14. And not to mention she'd kick your ass
  15. Agree about Plum Garden. The kids enjoyed the show, but the food was at best average, and that may be stretching it.
  16. I don't care for Thai, but that is my wifes favorite.
  17. So this 40 year old is better than looking than any Jill. How depressing. Maybe it's best if the Jills stay disbanded permanently.
  18. At least he made it to a superbowl. I don't care for any ex-players. Their insights are really no better than some people here. Coaches are another story. But I do not know how anyone can argue with Manuel being ranked that low at this point. He has shown extremely little to date. Jaws is not a Bills homer after all.
  19. I voted no only because the talent is spread waaaaaaay too thin as it is. However the NFL may need to keep expanding just so they don't implode under the weight of their salaries.
  20. I think this is very accurate. But I might swap the Bills and Rangers. It is amazing how many closet Rangers fans there are all over the state.
