  1. I do hope the Simpson family allows a postmortem analysis of his brain for signs of CTE. I have, for years, suspected he was suffering from this and it could possibly point to severe mental illness (undiagnosed) later in life. OJ was my hero as a boy but I too thought he was guilty of the double murder. I thought the prosecution did a terrible job and that the LA police made several agregious errors at the crime scene. The conviction in the civil trial, his subsequent behavior stealing his own property at gunpoint, and time in prison as a result certainly pointed to a troubled man , fallen from a great height, who some might say deserved all of it. I only know it was a terrible situation obviously for the victims and the family and also for OJ and his living family. RIP OJ, and I hope the victims remaining family have some peace from his passing.
  2. I am having no problem hearing his replies. I am on the Bills app.
  3. Kirby could you remind us where your current seats are?
  4. I know I laways appreciate updated photos. So, I vote yes!
  5. Hey, can you ask your lawyer if there is any way to have both you and your wife sign the PSL contract? My agent has told me only my name can go on it.
  6. I believe these numbers are for two seats. So, 20K PSL per seat. $5150 per seat for a 10 game season (2 preseason, 8 regular season). Does not include parking.
  7. yeh, I looked up where your section was. It looked like 30 to me but I only knew your row number. Certainly if you plan to be in the lower bowl, that will be more expensive. Billspride mentioned, "upper decks and end zone", there will be an extra deck (400) I THINK and the design is such as fans will be closer to the field than at the current highmark (so, for example 200 new is closer to field than 200 old etc). I prefer higher up to save money and to be under cover (hopefully) in the new stadium. (Us old farts like to be dry). Also, I have no trouble sitting close to an end zone. When the play is at the other end, I use my binoculars. But, some people absolutely prefer lower and towards the middle.
  8. Hey Billy, there's a LOT of doomsayers chiming in here. We still don't know much about pricing especially in non box seats. But some of the wild guesses being thrown around here need to be taken with a grain of salt. Thousands of STHers were given surveys where we could give our priorities and price ranges moving forward. I am not at all surprised that Box seats are in the $500-$600+ per game on top of a $15K-$20K PSL. But those folks are a lot of businesses and people with deep pockets - the former as a tax write off and the latter only go to a few games while selling the rest. I do not have the number but maybe Mr Info can help us by giving us perspective, "HOW MUCH MORE ARE THE SEATS HE WAS SHOWN THAN HIS CURRENT SEATS?" This is irrespective of the PSL's. I believe we are looking at about double? My seats in the Family section run around $70 each so this could reasonably mean comparable seats would be $140-$150. So, $1400 per year or so on the low end. Now, as to PSLs, I DO NOT expect the $10K figure a few people are throwing around. Could be 1K, maybe $2K. So, that's where I am at. if it's less, great. If it's more, then well, we'll see. How much more? In any event, the survey numbers had the range as low as $500 to as high as $50K. The top range in the survey appears to be correct (basically). I certainly made it clear in my survery $10K was too much for my wallet to the Family Section (if there is one). Everyone around me in my section were very concerned about PSLs and said they also made this clear in their surveys. Back to you Billy - I would expect the Bills to make sure you have enough time to plan to come to WNY. Whether it will be in the summer or not depends most likely on the early Box sales. I do not believe the 70% number Mr Info was told. More like, 20-40% Sales people ALWAYS exagerate. Anyway, I urge people to try and calm down until we have more definitive info. But, it's your blood pressure....not mine. Go Bills!
  9. My wife's response to this was, "oh my God , that's so slimy I need a bath" My response was a lot of, "or else......what?" Jeezus
  10. This is all fascinating. Also, as I quoted several weeks ago, my agent told me that the early visitors (Box seats) WOULD NOT BE OFFERED a chance to buy season tickets in "my section" (which I questioned her words about and she clarified it to mean, "sections similar to your current section (225))". One early visitor has told me he plans to try and surreptiously take some photos during the tour BUT I wonder how the guides/salepeople will police this if he is insistent.....confiscate his phone?!?! End the tour? This is "Merica!" (haha) The secrecy and attempt to control the release of information is really , potentially, going to get beyond annoying. Tell us the damn costs, I say. Show us the damn design. The process is starting to get insulting to Bills fans. Do they think they can trick us or something? Jeesh.
  11. I asked my rep three questions via email and she then called me. She , as PTR's rep was, did not provide a lot of information but her "answers" did somewhat contradict what PTR's rep told him. My questions were about whether or not there would be a Family Section, and if so, would it be covered, and what was the price range for PSL's in that section. She told me she had no answers but did say she, and other reps, were hearing the Family Section question a lot. Those of us STHers in those sections love the fact that there is no drinking and really hope that there will still be a section or two in the stadium with similar rules. She did tell me that after the Box seat people, "people would be contacted in order of tenure AND by section". I should have pressed her more on this I suppose. She also, oddly, told me that the box people "would not be offered to purchases ST's in sections such as mine until we had a chance to purchase them". In any event, it sounds like they will not get to me for several months. I am eager to hear some news but since the box people are going first, I amcertain the PSL's for those sections will be higher than for us cheaper seat areas. I hope. Gulp. Go Bills!
  12. praying for her right now......
  13. auntieEm, God Bless You. I commend you, but I was at the Ralph on the opening day sunday, when the Goat, in 2008, tore his ACL, SERIOUSLY, they kept showing the play on the scoreboard during breaks during the game, and each time, the cheers kept getting louder. It was HORRIBLE, oh yes, I remember crying, oh yes, crying, at the humanity of it all......... not with tears of laughter and joy, oh no, not that........ ok, time added for me and my minister wife in purgatory (who was also cheering)......
  14. I will be shocked if it's a run, so I agree with you there. As to whom they throw to? Diggs!
