I've read the posts and agree with the ludicrousness of the name change idea.
I just worry about it. In these times today's stupid idea is tomorrow's reality. Really stupid *****, such as defunding Cops is taking place. What prevents name change hysteria?
I'm a bit pissed at the talk show host--giving useless protesters ideas. He has even thrown Millard Fillmore hospital under the bus.

Listening to the windbag live right now. He's saying the Buffalo Bills may be up next to change their name.
Rationale: They are named after Buffalo Bill Cody who murdered many Native Americans.
I hope the Bills don't change their name.
(it's 930 AM, or WBEN on radio.com)

Now they can sign Clowney.
Pats fans think so. Patriots Linked to Free Agent and Former No. 1 Pick
Frankly, I still don't think NE has the cap space.

But if it's Warriors, I will always remember this clip from the movie: The Warriors.

Diggs has also voiced his discomfort regarding NFL COVID preps.
Have we bought a diva? Did we buy a pig-in-a-poke?

Color me concerned. We don't need any Google/millennial attitude in the front office. They ruin everything they touch.

Well, it appears that large corporations are not being held to the same rules you are, they just pay a fine and move on doing what they always do. The “little guy” always takes it on the chin it appears.
Corporations are available to the little guy as well. Some online companies will set one up for as little as $100. Highly recommended if you have a business. I've done it twice.

Due to the Chinese virus and sports, New Era had their back against the wall and did what they had to do.
Leave it to Poloncarz showboating and pandering, he strengthened the message that WNY is hostile to business. Business: no need to move to, or to stay in WNY.
He was right in the first part of his presser--he should have kept his mouth shut.

But why?
Because in reality land Buffalo can't support a major league team. The Sabres are only financially viable when they win.
If they move to a major market like LA or other, they can make money even when they suck. Example: the LA Clippers.

Pfftt.. increased salary cap means zilch, zip, nada, because all 32 teams get the same increase.

Surprised this hasn't been closed yet.

I ate liquid lunch when I worked for the government. May be the case here.

Ouch, how wrong you were
Career window for NFL guys is too short for them to opt out of playing. That said there is no way NFL will play this year unless they have a vaccine by Sept which is not going to happen. The US is in the worst shape of any country. They would be better off playing all their games in Europe, but we cant even travel their now.
No, COVID death rate has declined bigly, per the article I linked. You might be confusing death rate with cases.

Financially, Josh Allen is a salary cap bargain compared to other starting QBs. That alone increases his value. A salary cap strapped team would give a first to sign him.
Unpopular prediction: Josh plays 5 mediocre years in Buffalo, then moves on.

She owns the team. Get over your class envy and warfare and accept that.
There's reasons why Buffalo lags economically. Class warfare is top of the list.

If the Bills can’t take or seriously threaten for the division title this year then they might have to do some big time reassessments come next off season.
These high expectations and potential knee jerk reactions are just what I'm worried about.
Despite all the hoopla, NE won't suck as much as people expect. They still have a stout defense and still have the football jedi-master coach in charge. We'll go 1-1 against NE.
And contrary to many TSW posters, I consider the 2020 schedule to be tough.
The Bills may clear the board, hopefully. Or they may come in second. But in either case... any major retooling would be premature and counter productive.

Never.
When I worked in govt the Admin Assistants had a gig going... they would talk race with you over a period of time, lull you into a sense of trust. Then WHAM one day you talk race like you had safely before, and all the sudden they're deeply offended. They file an EEO complaint and disclose that they can be "made whole" by a payment in the 6 figure range.

The order — a “joint travel advisory” with the two other states — would take effect at midnight, Mr. Cuomo said on Wednesday. He said the quick implementation was aimed at preventing a rush of travelers trying to avoid the requirement, which currently applied to Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas and Utah.

Wow that’s horrible. And I would think rare for a professional athlete given the typical training and diet.
Yes, rare for an athlete.
My doc says genetics play a large role. Some could eat celery sticks 24/7 and still suffer heart disease. Apparently O'Leary falls in that group. Also, those of Irish descent appear more susceptible to heart disease. The good news: if caught early, statin drugs are effective.
Heart treatment is amazing these days. O'Leary back in 2021 is not unreasonable.

Taxpayers Still on the Hook for Stadium Debts, Even Though Coronavirus Canceled Sports
QuoteAmerican cities are going to lose about $360 billion in revenue over the next three years, according to a projection from the National League of Cities. The coronavirus pandemic isn't just emptying stadiums and eliminating ticket revenue. It's causing all sorts of economic spending to crater—including the common "tourist taxes" that cities often use to back debt, like those applied to hotel rooms and rental cars.

Report: MLB considering shutting down all 30 spring training sites
Notice it's considering. Let's hope it's posturing by some lawyer in the MLB legal department to mitigate future risk.
Worse case scenario would be a player dies of the Chinese Virus, then MLB can say "we gave closing camp due consideration."

This is from a popular satire site. All 32 teams need a name change.
In tumultuous times, satire could end up as eventual truth, so buckle your seat belts.
The name for the Patriots needs some work.
