We are eating dinner then so inconvenient. Plus I like watching the replays they show between live plays and 75 minutes for a game is not too much time. But 4 hours of broadcast for 40 min of action is something to think about.
-
I thought I WAS watching a condensed game since it was sans commercials and halftime! It was fairly easy to record a game and automatically strip commercials. Not sure how I would automatically go from the end of a play right to the next snap.

Donald Trump asked to invest in the Bills
CodeMonkey replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yup. -
Wow that's quick. I record the games during the season, strip out commercials then watch. I also manually skip halftime and I'm still at about 70 -75 minutes. Does that jump from the end of a play right to the next snap?

Report: eagles tried to trade for spiller
CodeMonkey replied to FluffHead's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Not like might be harsh. But this regime did not draft Spiller. And a situational skatback like Spiller does not seem, at least to me, to be a player someone like Marrone (and by extension his mini-me Hackett) would covet. -
She will see right through that and realize you are ALL crazy my friend

Lots of talk before an actual offer. "What would you be looking for? Two firsts and a second. Have a nice day!". -
ESPN Poll regarding Buffalo Bills

I appreciate your positive outlook, but tourism? -
Better Draft Day (s) coverage: ESPN or NFLN?
CodeMonkey replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Not really a spoiler compared to what they used to do. Those douchebags are wrong more than they are right. They are still guessing. Before they would have a camera back in the holding pen and focus on who got the phone call. That really was a spoiler. -
Bills to work out Canisius Basketball F Chris Manhertz
CodeMonkey replied to dobsonfe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well if that's true he has little chance. He can't just post up at the TE position in the NFL But it doesn't cost them much to look ! -

CodeMonkey replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That is an excellent description, and actually I find both networks to be that way. I watch the first pick overall, then watch something else until the Bills first pick. Listen to the analysis of said pick, then change channels again until the Bills second pick. Then I'm done. -

CodeMonkey replied to dobsonfe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
True. But let's face it, with QB being the sole exception, learning to play any position on a football team is not very difficult if you have the physical attributes and are a good athlete. And if the Bills can steal a TE, even a backup, without having to use a draft pick then why shouldn't they? -
Who believes in Manuel?
CodeMonkey replied to Chi-town Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
How dare you come in here with a mere 300 posts and not state that either Manuel is great or he is a bust after his first season!?!? Next you will be saying you don't know for a fact that the Bills new ownership will or will not move the team! Blasphemy I say! -
Not that many "large markets" in England. And the ones that do have a team, if not more than one (Manchester City and Manchester United for example). And the smaller markets with teams have had these teams in most cases for longer than the United States has been the United States. Teams there do not move like they sometimes do here. Not a relevant comparison. Your "reality" is predicated upon the assumption that a new owner would care what the people of WNY thought of them. They might, but they also might be thinking long term, not short term like you are. We will know when we know.
-
I believe your opinion is too short sighted. In my opinion, anyone with the resources to buy an NFL franchise is thinking of long term, not short term, profitability. Any fees, fines, costs etc. to relocate the team if they so desired would be factored in as part of the one time cost of ownership. A cost which could be made up in some number of years in a larger, more profitable, market. Unfortunately I don't deal in billion dollar purchases any more than I assume you do. So you may well be right. Or at the very least the new owners could conclude that it is in their better interests to leave the team in Buffalo for 5 or 6 years for the opt-out while they make arrangements (build a new stadium for example) somewhere else. I guess we will see when the time comes.
-
Of course it would be expensive to break the lease. And rightly so as the different entities are looking to invest significantly in stadium improvements. But anyone here saying the lease cannot be broken is just as silly as someone saying it would be cheap and easy to break it. New ownership will know what they are going to do and in what time-frame before they buy the team. But whatever they do, the lease will be one of many factors in their decision, not the only one.
-
Let them believe a lease can never be broken and can force a new owner to stay somewhere they do not wish to stay. As you said, it makes them feel better. And at the end of the day there is really no harm believing anything until there is a new owner and that owner makes it clear what they intend on doing with the team.

Buffalo Bills Fan Advisory Board meeting 4/10
CodeMonkey replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I never understood this. Why does standing make you any more involved in the game than sitting? You can't make noise when you are seated? I could just as easily say, if you want to be a douche and stand all game, stay at home. -
Only if I went to the game so I can see what I missed.

Jacobs Family front runners?
CodeMonkey replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So what was the purpose of releasing that statement at all then? I know the wording left open possibilities, but why bother making the statement if it had no meaning? -

CodeMonkey replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
But he would have to sell the Bruins. And they would not have bothered to make this statement if he had any intentions of buying the Bills, so game over. Move on and discuss any other white knights like Pegula. -
No excuse for not securing Buffalo ownership
CodeMonkey replied to jahbonas's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That's the best attitude to have in my opinion. Because unless Mrs. Wilson is lurking here, there isn't anything any one of us can do about it. -

I say don't feed the troll. -
Well Jim Kelly has an estimated net worth of 19 million, has zero experience, yet is considered by many to be in the running. JBJ in addition to having a higher net worth, has been an owner of a sports franchise before (Arena Football). Who knows who will end up owning the Bills. But Bon Jovi is no sillier than Jim Kelly in my mind.
