  1. They were 8-8 last year, we were 6-10. Have they lost a bunch of talent in the off season? (serious question)
  2. Better weather, a team that's closer to success, and either as much, or more money? Why would I hate him for that? Edit: And isn't there no income tax in Florida? That's like a bonus as well.
  3. I don't have much faith anymore. It's like believing in God when all your family dies over the course of 15 years. That being said, this season will be interesting. And I certainly hope we are successful. It'll be fun to see how last years rookies grow. It'll be fun to see our new rookies. At the very least, I'll be excited for about the first half of the season.. we'll see how things go after that mark though.
  4. It's going to happen with more regularity, big time starters getting cut due to huge contracts. It's an interesting NFL. Dudes are getting signed to crazy numbers, but then teams also have to let go of players that are expensive... Wonder what the average length of time a player will stay on a team is going to be... a couple years? Anyways, I could see this happening to Mario within the next year or two. Even if he's producing at a high rate... 18-19mil (whatever it's going to be) is a lot of money tied up in one player. Especially for a franchise that really needs to maximize profits.
  5. FredEx Dareus A.Williams K. Williams EJ Manuel I know the last one looks a little weird, considering he hasn't produced... I just happen to like his personality and presence. Hopefully he pans out on the field.
  6. Good for him. Seriously. He got out while healthy, and he's valuing things above money. He got what he needed out of the NFL, now he can do whatever he feels like, and as long as he's smart about it, won't be running out of money anytime soon. Good luck to him. Sure beats getting into all sorts of financial trouble, retiring too late, and having a hard time walking by the time you're 40, while floundering in bankruptcy.
  7. As much as a dome might be logical... there's no way anyone is paying for a new stadium. We're stuck with RWS until the team moves, most likely.
  8. RIP And yes, true about mixed feelings regarding Ralph... though when Ralph dies, the team might not be in Buffalo anymore.
  9. With our line? HAH. Put him on a team with a good Oline, good ground game and good defense? And he's shown to be just fine (game manager). So... nope.
  10. Ever been to FedEx field in Washington? Giant FedEx, Verizon and Bank of America signs all over the damned thing. Edit: Forgot about AT&T, Comcast and Geico, as well.
  11. Naming rights to the stadium?
  12. Because the insinuation was that the Bills will be moved if they don't sell out every game... so if they can't sell out boxes, they can't sell out seats... what else can they fill space with? Merchandising? More food choices? More fan entertainment zones? Will any of those bring in revenue? I'm assuming the answer is "no" and we should all just get used to the idea of the Bills moving sometime in the next decade.
  13. Yeah... I'm pretty resigned to the fact that the Bills won't be able to stay in Buffalo past 5 years or so. Sucks.
  14. ...yes The topic is, if the Bills don't sell out *every* game, they will be relocated. So, is it more likely the Bills will move if they don't sell out a bunch of seats, or if they don't sell out a box or two? What about if they remove seats and put up stores, vendors, fan activities, etc? Would selling the same number of tickets, but being a "sellout" keep them in Buffalo?
  15. I'm a long time comic book reader, so this whole comic movie era has made me very happy. I know absolutely nothing about Guardians of the Galaxy, though... and you know what... I kinda like it that way. After seeing the preview, its the movie I'm looking forward to the most. I'm pumped.
  16. Just wear a sign that says "Need Grill - Will Pay in Beer" and you'll have a line of grills laid out in front of you.
  17. What looks worse, a box not selling, or a chunk of 500 seats? (serious question)
  18. How in the hell did you choose the Bills to root for? Either way, welcome, enjoy the game! (can't answer your questions, as well as the locals can, I'm in another state)
  19. Probably because the Bills have had crap and **** at the QB position for so long.
  20. Higher prices for tickets earlier in the season, normal prices for later?
  21. Mario and Aaron Williams? Those are our cowboys, right? American Bison is also known as American Buffalo... I thought?
  22. Knowing our luck, a drunk fan would shoot it.
  23. Thanks for the quick answer.
