    How are we not Canada's team?

     

    I used to work in Canada from Winnipeg to Nova Scotia.

     

    Western Canada has a lot of Seahawks and Packers fans.  

    Some Detroit fans in Windsor as well. Saw groups of Saints fans in Hull and Quebec.

    I was in bar in Nova Scotia  and there was a fan of New England there and he was constantly bashed by other fans there.

    Good…Only room for 1 Allen on this team- especially at QB…It just felt dirty seeing that name on another jersey…😉

     

    We have had multiple players with same last name before.  I see why Bills brought in Kyle Allen but with offense troubles there was no time to develop Kyle Allen.

    Happy Belated Birthday !

    I really wonder how his body is coming back

     Hoping the best for him , but it feels like he might be done ? 🙄

    Might be right

     

    My impression was he came back early - healed perhaps but not at same physical level as before - when he was injured.  He had promised he would be back and he was but was a liability and then he was injured again.  He was released from Bills which implies he is healthy again but I think he will have trouble finding work as more than a depth CB.

    Four years for New England and 1 year for Bills.    I hope it is by choice and not due to neck injury

    New England still has jerseys of his available which probably will be enjoyed by some kids in Africa along with 19-0 New England T-Shirts.

    I thought Superman was born on Krypton...


    Superman was created by writer Jerry Siegel and artist Joe Shuster in 1932.

    They shopped the character for more years than current Bills head has been leading the Bills.

    Superman museum is in Cleveland and will be my first stop in that city even before watching football.

    Something is only worth what people will pay for it. If people will pay 20-50k, good on them. If not, those prices will drop really quick. Pegula just better hope this team is still good come 2026/27. People arnt gonna pay these prices with a crap product. This isn't 2007. We long held super low ticket prices, and that definitely helped the fan base keep coming to games. 

     

    I think Pegulas are depending on ticket and travel agencies to buy the PSLs who sell to out of area fans to create demand for ones they do not buy.

    Many of those agencies have deep pockets due to investments from private equity funds.

    This will turn Buffalo into one of those stadiums where visitor fan percentage is high which is not good for crowd noise.

     

    The good news is "NFL private equity plan won’t get vote this week" which will slow investment into these short term investors into NFL.

    Quote

    The NFL committee studying the possibility of letting private equity invest in teams will not seek a vote on their proposal at the league meeting underway in

     

     The committee again met yesterday at a hotel in Orlando. The committee is comprised of

    • Falcons owner Arthur Blank,  (   )
    • Broncos owner Greg Penner, ( 💰 )
    • Browns owner Jimmy Haslam, ( 🤮 )
    • the Patriots’ Robert Kraft ( 👎 )
    • and Chiefs owner Clark Hunt as an ex officio chair. ( 🦀 )

    No one like Ralph Wilson who will stand up and say this is stupid and makes no sense. 

     

    Quote

    Orlando this week, sources said. The committee will present its findings to date with the hope of action at their planned May meeting in two months, though even that may be ambitious, sources said, citing the complex nature of the debate.

    I am waiting to see one of the big, older owners in NFL (i.e. Jerry Jones, Kraft) to see what that impact does to NFL.

    Wilson treated the Bills as his personal ATM.  

     

    Considering he donated most of it that is very wrong.  He used to be largest donor to WNY Hospital System.  My sister was a nurse and saw him come in to help out and most of his donations were not reported on.

    From what I've read, and what Troy Vincent has said, the enforcement of the Hip Drop ban will NOT be done by flags and penalties, and more so via fines after the game. They plan to drive it out by hitting the players in the wallet as opposed to putting that pressure on the officials in real time.

     

    They should also have retroactive fines for POS like Vincent with removal of benefits.

     

    Without enforcement in game players will do it if it makes a difference in winning a game especially a playoff game.

    Also deciding they just weren't going to call holding on the KC offensive line essentially handing them a championship. 

     

    When that happens Zebra hunting season should be open.

    This gave me a thought of current players in Lingerie League. No wonder I never watched South Park but no insult intended to those who like to do / watch crossdressers.

    I am starting to get same reaction to NF*rackedUpLeague with their multiple million dollar nonPlayers being paid to not play.

  10. His wife used to play football in Legends league and later she coached football.

    Apart from being a wonderful wife Danika also has an athletic background just like her husband. Danika is a former professional Lingerie football player who played as a tight end. She also served as a coach and general manager for Nashville Knights in the LFL 2018 and 2019 seasons. Austin and Danika are proud and happy parents of their three beautiful children.

    Lucky guy. Every guy wants a wife Tight End.

     

    Maybe Austin can help his wife become an assistant coach for Bills?

    The couple got married back in 2017 after dating each other for more than five years. Danika is a supportive wife who always supports her husband both on the ground and off the ground.

    Tomlin will finally find out what it's like to have a losing record... I have a feeling the Steelers will regret this.

     

    Maybe it work out for them since having wins so many years have hurt ability to draft as well.  Next year may be year they draft their next long term QB.

    I agree with this last sentence but that should not be a question…whether that is a PSL, vacation home, expensive vehicle/boat or any other costly item that could impact your children’s education. PSLs are intended, just like any expensive entertainment item, for those that have the means to acquire them. If the PSLs would have been required twenty or so years ago, I would have passed but things change over time.

     

    If PSLs were required 20 years ago Bills would no longer have a team.

     

    A team in Buffalo that is.

    Greed and gambling will eventually be this and other league's undoing. The Ohtani story is going to blow up in ways we haven't foreseen. 

     

    Why would a working family prioritize a PSL over their kids education when the UFL offers something similar? 

     

    In actuality  UFL is like generic soda pop compared to brand name soda for NFL.   Perhaps it will be better than its parent league however.
