    That Pitt Sports Writer might want to talk to this guy Adam Archuleta who admitted during the Miami PS game he was oh so wrong about Josh 3 years ago.

     

    He now wonders how any team can stop him  :)

     

    There might only be 2 worst draws for your opener...KC at Arrowhead and Tampa the defending Champs and even thats debatable.

     

    The Bills at home with a full house on week one with this fan base has got to be right there with those other two.

     

    50,000 for the PS game and they were loud and now 70,000 crazy football starved fans with a contending team to cheer for at last.

     

    This is going to be a beat down of epic purportions  :)


    I bought a ticket during the first quarter of the last preseason game. Has “all timer” potential for atmosphere.

    You have no idea...not her boy friend just somebody trying to help, and he was swearing at her and he was in the wrong section.

    The only privilege here is you giving that 6,2, 220 lb jerk the benefit of the doubt.

     

    She slapped him. PERIOD. He stepped up PERIOD. They got smoked, they deserved it. 

     

    It's pre season. People sit in the "wrong" section all the time. 

  3. I was born in Buffalo and after moving around a bit as a kid ended up back there just in time for the SB years. As an adult I've lived all over the country and settled in Albany (Giants country). When I was getting to know my neighbor (now good friend) he told me there is no such thing as a casual Bills fan. If they exist he had never met one.

     

    I've had that sentiment repeated to me on a few occasions by others. Like you said casual fans exist but I don't really know any.

    1.4 billion is completely reasonable, and asking for heavy funding from the state if the Pegula’s are making concessions on the type of stadium they’d like, and the location they’d prefer, also seems reasonable.  
     

    Just get this done.  
     

    Some of y’all are more up in arms over state tax dollars going to a stadium than the fact you’re paying $25 more per tank to fill up at a gas station.  
     

    The government can play us on all kinds of regressive taxes we don’t notice.  Hence the idea to take taxes out of paychecks… so you don’t notice.  
     

    Only difference here is a stadium is a shiny object that seems to stir the emotions of people who unknowingly fund all sorts of nonsense every year.  

     

    Gas prices are driven by supply and demand. Fuel taxes haven't changed. I'm not sure what your point is. My average tank is up $6 from last year how many gallons are you buying?

     

    Billionaires can pay for their own stadiums unless they plan on sharing the profits

    I'll venmo you the money every year then.   Ridiculous... you'll pay taxes for all sorts of nonsense, but this... this, is where you draw the line?  

     

    No you won't. We already have one of the highest sales tax rates in the country. Most NYers are not Bills or even sports fans. Why should anyone pay for a billionaires profit center. 

     

    If we want to publicly finance a stadium then we should publicly keep the profits from everything that comes with it. I would be in favor of a loan (even low or no interest) that was paid back over time but no, not paying a dime. I pay when I buy a ticket.

    it would seem since I read somewhere it would be state wide that it would be what, out of millions of new yorkers, a few bucks a year? 10 bucks? or maybe they can raise the tax rate to 9%. what is it now 8%? I just don't see it being an extravagant amount?

     

    I love the Bills, I will not pay a penny more in sales tax. Nor should anyone.

    I don’t understand all the Beasley hate. I know it’s an unpopular opinion to be against vaccination, but I feel like people are making him out to be evil. It’s his choice. 
     

    fwiw, I’m vaccinated myself

    The issue is he is being loud and me first. He's being a classic diva about this instead of quietly going about his business. I don't care what he does, I would just like him to STFU about it.

    Marino was maybe a better passer, but he sure as hell wasn’t a better QB.

     

    I'm as Buffalo as it comes but I don't think this is true. I wonder if we would have won some of those SB's with Marino. We had great defenses, special teams and better tight ends and a deeper WR corp AND runnings backs

     

    He had Mark Duper

    How did they "clean up"?  They got a third round pick next year and a first round pick in 2023, which is worth less than a second round pick this year, to move from 3 to 6.  The Jets traded three second round picks, including two in that year's draft, to move from 6 to 3 in 2018. 

    That was said before they traded up to 6. At 12 I stand by my statement
