  1. In the immortal words of Bryan Cox, Bills fans are a "different breed of species". If the team is sold to an owning entity who tries to move them out of town, eyes have not seen the wrath that will follow. These are the Bills for God's sake and they've been the Buffalo Bills for 54 dam years. If there is ever a threat to move this team, grandmothers from Cheektowaga will start packing heat.

    I envision the riot scene at the end of Bruce almighty.

    Listened to the audio. This group JBJ, Tannenbaum, & Rogers is a significant threat.

     

    If necessary a Pegula & Golisano duo might be needed.

    A threat yes but the details are too limited to gauge it.

     

    My own take see's it as this:

    A group of owners

    Have enough to buy the team

    Not enough to pay the relocation fee

    Not enough to build a new stadium in Toronto

     

    Pegula (if he does bid):

    Liquid worth

    Enough money to buy the team

    Enough money to build a new stadium when the tax payers will fork in

    Single owner

  3. @KevinMassare: Hearing from a valuable source that the team is taking a cautious approach when it comes to Bon Jovi group. Others expected front runners.

     

    @JohnKryk: And this: Toronto bid group now vowing to keep #Bills in Buffalo, per sources. "Toronto Bills" idea all but dead: http://t.co/v7tNUyooBi

    I find the kryk article interesting. Jbj is worth almost nothing and would have to liquidate everything he has to be a majority owner. The other two are worth around 10 billion net but must not have any liquid assets since he mentioned they don't have 400 million to pay if they won the court case.

  4. Based on that info, you would have to think pegula knew what he was doing hiring a "seller" instead of a "buyer".

     

    The guy is gonna know the books since he has been involved in major league sports deals before and can tell pegula what he's getting in a minute.

  5. Talk about a player with a pulse on the Buffalo fan base:

    "It's nothing new. It's every year. Everybody thinks we're just the same old Bills -- and that's fine with me," he said. "They think we're the same old Bills that every year everybody gets hyped up for an incredible season, then people get let down with a 6-win season. To me, I'm getting tired of it as well."

     

    For many, the belief exists that you won't change the results unless you change the way you prepare. Williams is subscribing to that theory for 2014.

     

    "We're not gonna play any games this year," the safety said. "To me, I'm getting tired of it as well. It's a new attitude I'm bringing to the table. We're going to be a winning team and we're gonna come out here with a new attitude and be aggressive, and bring this city more wins."
