  1. According to WGRZ, New Era is closing the Derby plant according to this news article. Also according to the article the downtown Buffalo Head Quarters is staying put. This is how fake news gets spread. https://www.wgrz.com/article/news/local/rally-outside-new-era-field-to-protest-closure-of-companys-derby-plant/71-5c3f776e-be05-4af1-a381-3f5573873b18 Rally outside New Era Field to protest closure of company's Derby plant Dozens gathered outside One Bills Drive to protest the proposed closure of New Era's production plant in Derby. Author: WGRZ Staff Published: 11:57 AM EST January 26, 2019 Updated: 1:58 PM EST January 26, 2019 ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Local politicians, labor union representatives, and others gathered outside One Bills Drive on Saturday to protest New Era's decision to close its manufacturing plant in Derby. The group demanded that company CEO Chris Koch change the company's decision to end production operations in Western New York in March. Hundreds of workers will lose their jobs. In an average year, New Era was making about 2 million caps at its Derby plant, which has been in operation since the 1960s. RELATED: New details on closing of New Era's Derby plant RELATED: Rally to keep New Era jobs in WNY New Era employs more than 300 workers at its downtown Buffalo headquarters, which the company says will not be affected by the plant shutdown. Shortly after the announcement of the impending closure, Koch said the move was to help ensure the long term success of the company. New Era owns and operates the Derby facility, and the company says it's no longer viable in today's global economy to own a plant to make the caps.
  2. George Saimes, Kelso Buffalo has had many good S and RB apparently that does not mean 'Super Bowl' victories
  3. nothing personal against the young man, but I don't want the Bills to go for him at all. Too many red flags. I said the same about Rosen this time last year.
  4. 0-4 in Super Bowls 1-0 in life Winner in my books
  5. what are you talking about? it was a 15 minute OT.
  6. Always happens, has for years. Late game BS calls to 'even things out' by the numbers when the game has already been decided
  7. your post was taken out of context then, thanks for clarifying. We agree in a lot of regards. Id rather see as pass catcher/ pass rusher or mountain DT in the first too, but if a great OL prospect is there then get him. That may not be the case this year
  8. the games this weekend are terrible I'm turning this off in protest
  9. Guess you need more than a QB, because its also funny how undisputed football God Aaron Rogers has gone 6-9-1 and 7-9 the past 2 seasons, got a coach fired and missed the playoffs two years in a row
  10. No kidding the Chiefs and Rams won yesterday, what a surprise. 2 of the top 4 teams in the league all season won yesterday, what a shocker. I stand by my statement, and would take either OL over what Buffalo has. Dallas - divisional title and a playoff win Colts - helped salvage the career of a very god QB and had a playoff win Bills - nearly ruined their rookie QB with an elbow injury about 6 games into his rookie season, borderline hall of fame player couldn't get 4 ypc, 6-10 no playoffs sitting at home, no division title, no playoff wins. I don't understand how you are against investing in OL.
