  1. Listen , I think Ralph Wilson just made some poor personnel decisions as an owner, he let his emotions get in the way But the whole Ralph is cheap thing is stupid and shouldn't even be a thought He's the man who brought us here and kept us here. He made OJ Simpson the highest paid player in the seventies. Jim Kelly the highest paid player in the '80s.. the '90s bills were called the million dollar bills.. he gave Mario Williams the richest defensive contract in NFL history The problem is between all that he spent money on the wrong players and the wrong coaches
  2. Let's put it this way. with the socialist mayor coming in The chances went from slim to almost none Downtown Buffalo is doing perfectly fine.. it's a lot of the other parts of the city that are struggling And Putting a stadium downtown isn't going to help the east side And the Packers are publicly owned team. The bills aren't So Green Bay is set up specifically for the Packers to help the economy The Bills going downtown would just be a hip move.. economically I don't think it makes much sense, because it's probably more expensive than what it would be to build in orchard Park If Terry chooses to build it downtown go for it.. I just doubt it
  3. West side definitely has some nicer areas and parts of it definitely have been gentrified But There are still like 40 or 50 active gangs in Buffalo and they're all basically on the east or west side The east side is a mess tho Statistically Buffalo is the most violent city in New York that's fact. And most of the violence occurs on the east or west side
  4. I just don't think the city has the money for it As beautiful as it sounds the subway just isn't coming into the suburbs Of course the city has suffered from a lot of things over the years.. but I don't think a downtown stadium is the fix.. or even part of the solution Downtown Buffalo is far from the problem. The East and West sides , which are lacking infrastructure, has a high gang problem, opioid problem and educational problems, need help... Their schools need better funding and better teachers, and their roads needs to be fixed and their neighborhoods need help At the end of the day Buffalo is the most violent city in New York.. you would never think it if you just went downtown... There's a whole lot of parts of the city that need help badly
  5. Well I can almost promise you that that infrastructure, transport revitalization is not going to happen in the city There's been streets that have needed to get paved for a decade and they dont But for the greater part. The City of Buffalo has been changing for the better for the last 20 years.. and it didn't need a stadium to do it Go downtown, and you're not going to see a lot of Pizza huts and KFCs... It's all mom and pop shops, boutiques, breakfast nooks... From the theater district, to Allentown and Canalside And we do have a rail system from UB south to Canalside with like 14 stops in the city so at least there's that
  6. The Patriots play in a suburb and they've won more super bowls than anybody in the last 20 years.. There's no economic boost for a downtown stadium , and we have 40 years of tradition and history in OP
  7. I posted plenty of times. There is no data that shows that building new stadiums downtown help a cities economy.. plenty of studies have shown that I live here in the city and we don't need it downtown. I wouldn't be mad but we don't need it .. I never walked downtown and said the bills need to be here.. it's just the hip thing to say And it doesn't help the economy, it's been shown many times
  8. If Ralph got us a great coaching staff.. assemble a championship defense.. and a solid offense... How is it his fault? He can't play the game I've done the numbers here plenty of times for people.. Ralph spent money all the time.. it just wasn't always money in the right spot
  9. Because the grid pattern in downtown Buffalo is wonky It has one way streets and it's not meant for 90000 people .. At least orchard Park has more area, and road access Sabers games draw 20,000 people downtown.. that's minuscule to the 85-90000 that show up to orchard Park to tailgate and watch the game 90,000 people in downtown Buffalo would be a mob scene, you would never get out.. especially with the one ways and such Downtown Buffalo is just not meant to hold that many people at once .. it's a big small City.. but downtown gets cramped with 20 or 30,000 people... Let alone 90k
  10. There are dozens of studies that show downtown stadiums do nothing to help a city's economy A stadium downtown will not revitalize the economy And you can get from downtown Buffalo to orchard Park or any suburb in 20 minutes.. easily It's fine in orchard Park. And if you think traffic jams are bad in op, you couldn't imagine 100,000 people downtown... That's why it's not going there Orchard Park is the easiest venue to build it around
  11. Who cares what state leaders say? They haven't had the people's back in forever.. Buffalo has been on a small grind for 20 years turning the city around The last thing we need is a socialist destroying all the progress Who cares about negative media attention. The media is garbage and has turned our country against each other... Yeah Brown didn't run the best primary campaign.. but he could run a better independent campaign Let alone the fact that only 20,000 people voted in the primary.. literally half of what voted in 17 A city that's asleep voted in a socialist and we should get another chance to fix it
  12. Any product with cannabinoids is banned by the world anti-doping agency If tested positive after the race So basically in competition.. outside of competition, if you could piss clean in competition, it's okay
  13. About 34 with three children ... Not that I would actually know 😏
  14. I understood that It's crazy how they push ludicrous statement's
  15. We made the list! I knew my hard work would pay off
  16. Lmaooo Everything is way more expensive than it was last year
  17. This is America. You get what you put in You can go from the ghetto, to being the top brain surgeon in the world If you work your ass off... If you want to make more than $15 an hour, apply yourself in your life so that you're worth that... If you have no skills you're going to get paid in unskilled labor wage... Which is under $15 an hour If you learn skills you'll get paid more. Always work that way in this country If you want a good job you need to work for that good job
  18. There is nothing that shows that increasing minimum wages helps economies Absolutely nothing It puts a strain on small business owners , makes unfavorable working conditions, and lazy workers People who deserve that $15 an hour, are now displaced because people doing less make what they make.. so they don't work as hard And that gets trickled up through every single profession I just named Why does a low level entry level high school job deserve $15 an hour? It's called unskilled work for a reason
  19. What about all the people who make $15 an hour and work harder than those minimum wage jobs? Then they need $20 an hour Then the roofers who make $20 an hour.. they need $30 an hour And the nurses who make $30 an hour.. they need $40 an hour Physical therapist making $40 an hour need 50 Plumbers making $70 an hour need $80 People who have never owned businesses think you could just increase minimum wages and salaries and there's no consequences.. there's a lot of consequences for the people paying the checks
  20. Always remember... Jonny Hops
  21. If they could somehow land Donovan clingon we would be title contenders .. I know it's a long road to get him It's been forever since we pulled a high caliber big man who could help day 1
  22. All of that is taught in school First you don't need to indoctrinate little children into feeling guilty or hating people.. as you get older you learn more specifics Nothing about America's past is hidden in our education.. we own up to all our guilts unlike the Communist Russians or Chinese
  23. No Again how is identification to vote a bad thing or racist? I need identification when I buy beer, go to the strip club, drive a car... Voting is more important than all of those And we have an illegal immigration problem heavily in this country.. why is identification proving you're a Legal citizen a bad thing to vote
