  1. Vancouver is a terrible sports city and will never get a NFL team. Perhaps a good place to have a sports related riot but not a real sports city. It lost its NBA team. What kind of city does that? THE only way Toronto gets a new NFL franchise is with a new downtown domed stadium in Toronto that would cost well over $2.5B to build given how expensive the real estate is. NO one is stepping forward with that kind of money NOR is there any conversation whatsoever currently of such a new stadium being built in Toronto. Make NO mistake about it but if there was a new Toronto NFL team it would be supported the way Toronto supports the Leafs, Raptors and Blue Jays. Have you seen the price of those tickets in Toronto? The same Canadians who have the money to buy up Sabres and Bills tickets would love to spend their money right there in Toronto. With respect to the stadium in Hamilton where I live, it is in NO way large enough or attractive enough host a NFL practice let alone a NFL preseason game. By the way, it is now NO longer named Tim Hortons.
  2. I love the attitude and welcome your openness. Perhaps Canadian fans would consider simply sending their cheques for Bills games and just stay home. You know and I know that the Bills would not still be in Buffalo if not for the large percentage of Canadians in attendance at Bills games. Even more true for the Sabres. When I hear comments similar to yours, they are usually from Bills fans who had to move away from the Buffalo area (or their parents) to better their economic futures. I am not here to talk crap about the Buffalo area since I love its history and culture but rather point out how blessed that area is to still have two professional sports teams after the departure of the NBA. It took the intervention of Gary Bettman and Ralph Wilson to make that happen. AND there it is. Irrational fear. B-I-N-G-O!!!
  3. Closer to 20 tickets and sure they will be replaced. It is NO big deal. Take the next step and say it -- "Buffalo does NOT need Canadian fans to survive." I know you want to.
  4. Wrong. Toronto is the 4th largest city in North America. It has plenty to offer the NFL. How long do you think Canadians are going to continue to cross the border given the current climate down there? I personally know of 4 sets of longterm Bills season ticket holders who decided not to renew in the new stadium. I appreciate you suffer from that well established City of Buffalo fear of losing your professional sports teams given the city's 5 decade long economic decline however to say Toronto would not be a great new NFL franchise is pure homerism. The Bills are NOT going anywhere. Why the fear bro?
  5. NO THANK YOU. If Toronto is going to get a team, it should be one of 4 new NFL franchises to get to 36 teams. $2.5B for a downtown new stadium in Toronto plus $2.5B for the franchise fee. I don't have $5B so I won't worry about it.
  6. Happy Birthday Bud...
  7. THE MIGHTY TACO BECAUSE IT GIVES ME THE SH*TS
  8. The Jets gave the Steelers a game but the Jets are NO Ravens. We should be able to handle the Jets fairly easily.
  9. I can't specifically recall that game so I looked it up...
  10. CONGRATULATIONS!!! I remember being less than 10 years old and changing the channel on the old black & white TV with my toes since there were no remotes just to watch OJ run oh so pretty on an otherwise oh so crappy Bills teams. So that means I am die hard Bills fan for over 50 years. Do I win a prize in this dick measuring contest?
  11. I am as happy as a little girl this morning so I am unsure where you figure I hate the Bills.
  12. Please start one. I agree. Best Home Opener that I can recall.
  13. Was THRILLED not a strong enough word? I know I know.... There are always those that say after a mass shooting that it is too soon.
  14. Most ==> JOSH ALLEN None ==> SEAN McCOLLAPSY
