Can We Listen To Bon Jovi Music Again?
LabattBlue replied to Gisele's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I love how groups like Bon Jovi and Nickelback are always trashed by the music snobs, but somehow they became multi-millionaires? I'd love to see the iPod's of these snobs. I would bet there would be more embarrassing music on them then Bon Jovi. :lol: -
Who should stay on with new ownership?
LabattBlue replied to Beerball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'd love to know if any stipulations were included in the sale to secure positions for Littman, Overdorf & Brandon? -
Update on renovations to The Ralph
LabattBlue replied to Beerball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Just took a ride by the stadium. The bathroom towers are still all black except for down low where there is some signage for "sections". The back of the scoreboard looks awesome though with the stadium name. Not sure if this was mentioned, but the boulders around the new store look really out of place? What is their purpose? If it was a security thing, why not just put some concrete bollards in place? -
Week 1 Monday Night Football Doubleheader
LabattBlue replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I drafted Demaryius Thomas over Calvin Johnson. I am an idiot! -
Here we go again. There are TWO major sports teams in Buffalo. One just started its season, and the other is about to start training camp. I know some don't care about hockey, but guess what, since they never talk about any other sports on WGR, that leaves at least 50% of the time for football/bills talk. The other 50% of the time when they are talking hockey can be spent on this site for those who don't care about the Sabres, and just need to debate the merits of EJ Manuel for the 1,000,000 time.

49ers fans at Cowboys game yesterday
LabattBlue replied to \GoBillsInDallas/'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Now they know how Sabres fans feel, when the Leafs come into town, and some nights it feels like a 50/50 split. -
The only message the WGR management will get is... you don't listen>>>advertisers take their dollars elsewhere>>>heads roll

Opponent Stadiums playing Bon Jovi could backfire
LabattBlue replied to Bocephuz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Livin' on a Prayer has been played at sporting events for years now. I seriously doubt that the person in charge of what goes out over the PA system at a visiting teams, is doing it because of JBJ interest in the Bills. -
Yep. I forgot, and give him credit for that play.
-
You know why he had 13 tackles? Because the guy he was covering, caught the ball over and over again! The one play he had a chance to make, the ball hit him in the hands and he dropped it.

Official Pre-Game Thread: Week 1, Bills at Bears
LabattBlue replied to Dan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am worried about the offense(specifically EJ and the pass protection of the OL), but equally anxious about the defense going up against some pro bowl quality weapons on Chicago's offense...Cutler, Forte, Marshall & Jeffrey. -
New Buffalo News Beat Reporter is.... Vic Carucci!!!
LabattBlue replied to theesir's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Good to have Vic back, but kind of sucks for Mark Gaughan. -
Bills Release Alan Branch After DWI Arrest
LabattBlue replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Who cares? -
For anyone hoping any of the WGR hosts/reports get fired, forget about. Those guys have jobs for life even if they mail it in(like some currently do). All they basically have to do, is show up, and talk into a mic. In recent years, the only host who was let go, was Brad Riter, and it is was rumored that he got canned because he couldn't figure out how to show up for his shift on time.

In regards to the music "blaring", the Bills must be taking their cue from the Sabres where any stoppage in play and/or during the intermissions the music is ear splitting. -

$7 for a slice of pizza? LOL. I'm glad I always eat before I go in the stadium. Between the lines, the price, and the quality, it is a joke. As for the continued gridlock under the upper deck, this is why once I get in my seat thru the time when the game is over, the only place I'm going is to the top of the upper deck to use the bathrooms there. -
I'm curious about Golisano. If his role in buying the Sabres was just to stabilize the franchise and then sell to an owner committed to keeping the team in Buffalo, then why would he be bidding on the Bills, if he knows Pegula is in the picture? This is assuming Golisano's interest in the Bills is the same as it was with the Sabres(stabilize and eventually sell to an owner committed to keeping the team, when said owner steps forward).
-
PTR...I can't see that many(50+) substantial events, not counting high school football or like events where there are 2000 people in the stadium. Maybe 25-30, but IMO even that would be a reach.
-
I agree. Blow that thing up, move the track and field facilities somewhere else on campus, and then build a 30,000 seat stadium, with one end being open, and have the stands right on top of the field. I don't know what I dislike more about the current stadium, the track surrounding the field, or those embarrassing endzone bleachers which were thrown in to meet some minimum capacity MAC mandate, and then the only time they were ever filled was when Tony Hawk did an exhibition at one end of the stadium several years ago.
-
So do you believe the new owner is going to end up footing the majority(or all) of the costs if a new stadium is built. I just can't see it for a stadium that will be a white elephant except for 10-12 times a year.
-
Since when are the potential ownership groups submitting stadium proposals as part of their bid to buy the team?

Who should stay on with new ownership?
LabattBlue replied to Beerball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I didn't say I want Brandon interfering. But isn't he ultimately responsible for the record of the team if he is the one who hires the GM? I am not sure what this has to do with my statement that the Bills are profitable no matter who is in charge. That being said, so Brandon is responsible for generating higher revenues than 10 other teams? JOB FOR LIFE. What more can I ask for as a life long Bills fan than this.
