Tell me about the possibility of building a new stadium in Niagara Falls.

Funny, I don't remember seeing "numerous" reports on "numerous" days. I remember reading a couple reports on a couple days. In fact there were some reports that said he looked good, so as NoSaint pointed out how can you dismiss the good and only focus on the bad. Even the Paul Hamilton article doesn't say he's bad. It says he missed some throws and the entire offense looked bad. Also says Thad missed some throws. It's interesting, people expect EJ to get better, when exactly do you expect him to do that if not at practice in June? EDIT: and if you don't think the reporting of OTAs is microscopic, I point no further to the fact that Day 1 a reporter made a huge deal about the fact that EJ came out one play after scratching his knee.

You are getting concerned? Seriously? About OTA's? Look, I'm looking for him to step up this year but if you don't think he's still going to have some bad throws in practice, you probably shouldn't read any articles from now until opening day. I honestly don't expect him to look HoF like in practice, all I care is how he looks on Sundays. I hope to see improvement from last year but won't know until I see a couple actual games. Don't let the microscopic reporting of OTAs in June concern you, would be my advice.

I enjoyed this episode for the fact that I thought, predictably, Jon Snow was going to die and he didn't. The writers have built up for 3 seasons that in episode 9, something shocking would happen. It was a nice change of pace to see a Stark not get "crapped on". And while Ygritte's death happened, it was going to be either her or Jon, they made that much clear.

I watched that game, it was brutal.

I got bored this weekend and was watching some pre World Cup soccer and the England/Honduras friendly was on. There was a delay because of thunder storms so they got the stadium manager(?) on to interview and they were asking about why the stadium wasn't covered considering the new baseball stadium is. Anyways, long story short, he says they are considering a roof as part of the renovation, or at least covered seating. Seemed pretty confident about it. I think that says a lot that even a warm weather team is considering a covered stadium.

Yea I do. Some of the players can be a bit boring but a lot of them are pretty hilarious. Eric Wood is surprisingly funny.

Twiitter definitely has it's benefits and I've gotten a lot of value from it, including tickets to a concert. Edit: I also follow a good majority of the Bills players.

And you are wrong again. Baltimore-Cleveland was approved by the league. LA Rams/LA Raiders moves were again, both approved by the league. Even when Oakland wanted to move to LA, the league blocked in with an injunction, you know that that legal thing that you seem to think some owner would just be able to get around. That was in 1980, the team didn't move until after the court case, in 1982.

As to point B, please show me in NFL history where a team has just moved without first either getting NFL consent or going to court?

So, as an update, have we had any conformation that this conversation, that the OP talked about, actually happened. And had anyone heard the clip where it's actually said?

Of course they could move the team when the lease allows but that's not what I was arguing. The OP says that on the radio they are saying that Rogers(the corporation), is planning on moving the team next year. For the points I listed, I just don't see it being possible.

Thank god you are back!

Voted.

Are ya sure? Edward Rodgers maybe? Corporations can't buy NFL teams.

1. Rogers would need approval first from the trust to buy the team, then from the league. 2. He would need to win a court case in Erie county so that he could pay the $400 million 3. He would then need approval from the NFL to move the team. 4. He'd have to pay a relocation fee, if approve. 5. He'd have to have a place for them to play, as Rogers centre doesn't meet NFL requirements for attendence and is getting refitted with grass the seats in the lower bowl can't be positioned for football games hence the Argos leaving. That means building a stadium, which hasn't started, and even if it did start today, it would still be at least 2 years before it was finished. 6. These stories are getting more and more ridiculous. EDIT: And I assume you mean Edward Rodgers, son of Ted Rodgers. Rodgers communication, can't buy a team.

Aldon Smith.... Hmmm, the 49ers seem to be sticking with him and he's actually been suspended. Dareus hasn't been suspended. But yes lets get the pitch forks and torches out.

YEAH AND TELL THE 49ER'S TO TRADE ALDON SMITH!!!

Aldon Smith...

Count me in.

Shoot it's the offseason, the Bills are all street racing, what else have we got to do besides speculate?

Contrary to what most believe, some people aren't all about the money. Not more than 4 weeks ago Herb Kohl, former Milwalkee Bucks owener, turned down a bid for $650 million from Steve Ballmer because he wanted the team to stay in Wisconsin. He took $100 million less.

My wife and I watch the show and just before I started she was talking about how someone spoiled a part of the show for her, I hate that. Anyways, my exact words before the episode were "I feel like they are trying to make you think Tyrion has a chance with Oberyn, build up your hope, but in reality he has no chance." If I know one thing about this show, no one is safe.

Jacobs is waiting in the wings to dump money into the right bid/owner. That really says it all.

Wow. Jacobs sitting back and waiting to put the right bid over the top. That says it all.
