  1. It just told me i needed Sunday ticket also for some reason..im 4 hours out in Central PA 4 hours from Buffalo
  2. Sure they did they are literally refusing $$ from probably hundreds of thousands guys like me...when you start actively turning down $$ you dropped the ball. I mean whats better 10 Billion or 10 Billion or 10.75 Billion..thats the point im getting at
  3. Need the direcTV package also apparently says im not eligible. Forget it guys lets just close this topic i guess..the NFL dropped the ball on tis one and is stopping guys like me from spending $$ with them lol...itsn that odd...a guy like me is willing to spend $99-120 for a season "pass" just to watch the Bills....and they say..No thanks I dont want your $$$ so i guess thats on them. I give up...guess its the typical crap online feed or Sirius radio//maybe go down to the local bar and watch but not sure what they are offering in this Covid era...but thats the least wanted of my options....i like you yell and swear at my TV when im watching lol thats hard to do in public and I get uncomfortable in public because I cant "be myself"
  4. But as of now...looks like I will be listening on Sirius or watching the typical grainy 5 minutes behind crap feed that cuts out 1/2 way through///the NFL really and truly tries to screw people over that want to watch out of market. Even the NHL got that right..
  5. No, but im just wondering how a OTA/antenna would help with Bills games in Central PA? i know nothing about this lol Oh and at least if its reasonable i dont mind paying that wasnt the issue with the online feeds its just that you need 3-4 a game and they almost always suck lol.
  6. Yeah I think in 10 years of looking at the online ones ive found a grand total of 5 that were good didnt cut out 1/2 way through or were not 5 minutes behind lol..worst comes to worst I can listen to them on my Sirius radio app
  7. I did and most of them are about the crappy online ones that are as said not the "legal" ones and the other is about satelite...I just figured the NFL would be at least smart enough to have a package like the NHL does..I can get/watch all the Sabres games(and a few free bonus games) all season for like $99-120. you can ge the whole NHL for even more but I just figured the NFL would have a similar deal where you could just get/pick a team and get those games..think about it... I didnt really have to worry about this since what....98/99 so about 20 years till NOW....now that they are at least watchable again I was trying to actually watch.
  8. Ok, im out of town/not in market my local games are Pitt and Eagles. other than some of the crappy online feeds(non official) and I absolutely will never have a satellite dish does the NFL have the equivalent of the NHL TV that you can watch online? Or again other than Satellite which I will never even consider because its trash(sorry if you work for a satellite company the service sucks) what are the options... I have Xfinity/Comcast as cable Co.
  9. Yeah but someone is always looking for one.
  10. it happens..they did what the Bills did back at the end of the "Flutie Era" in 1999 with that Music City FARCE game. They loaded up to win a SB...the Eagles won it now they will reap the rewards of winning a SB and having bloated contracts to have done so. Bills did the same thing and got screwed over..that 1999 Music City FARCE game WAS 100% a SB contender/worthy team..they loaded up they got screwed by the league...and then they reaped the rewards of "loading up" for a SB run ....they just didnt make it... If I were a Eagles fan I sure wouldnt be mad I mean just a couple years ago they were WORLD CHAMPS!!! Would you really be mad if the Bills won the SB this year then 3 years from now with Josh's big contract they were in 'cap trouble" and had to cut guys..id not be if we had just won the SB in the last 3 years...
  11. Looks like the Big10 is playing a conference ONLY schedule so no 'warmup" games like UB,Akron, etc,etc... So while not cancelling a season it is cancelling what 3-4 games of it ? So this will hurt schools like UB and Akron who normally get paid decently to "show up and take a L" (normally) https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/29435295/source-big-ten-moving-conference-only-model-all-sports-fall
  12. As I read it or understand now guys CAN (think as of 1997) own 2 teams in different sports.....but very FEW guys own multiple franchises in the same city I think just a few do most are owned by totally different people....so he could sell the Sabres if he wanted to and keep the bills there is no restriction that says the same owner needs to own all or both teams..I mean we KNOW that to be untrue....I mean how many owners actually DO own both teams in a town ...the only restriction is crossowenrship of SAME sports teams is a no no..There are currently six NFL team owners that have ownership interests in professional, non-NFL sports teams..These owners are (1) Stan Kroenke, (2) Paul Allen, (3) Malcolm Glazer, (4) Shahid Khan, (5) Terry Pegula, and (6) Tom Benson.
  13. Biggest thing i guess is when you "cash out" where do you put your $$$$$$ where did all or a lot of that Pegula bucks $$$$$$ go? stock market? etc,etc,etc..and how big a hit did that $$ take when they cashed in and lately with the market crash and COVID? I mean i seriously know guys that had their 401K(in my case TSP) in a diversified account that STILL lost 40-60K when this market went south from COVID...and for many people their 401K is a good chunk of their net worth...what did the Pegulas have their cashed in $$ IN at the time(other than Bills Sabres in talking what kind of investments is my point..and how big a hit did they take?
  14. Thats fine. I also do get where youre coming from but once you go into that spin like the Bills did and Sabres are now..that teams more or less a non factor to me anymore anyway..I mean we were season ticket holders in the endzone where the concrete is on the tunnel i mean right against the concrete you could stand up and look back into the tunnel from our seats from 1982-1992 then we went with a big upgrade and got the paul Maguire box seats from 93-2000 then when we knew they had killed the team in 2000 when all the good players left and Rob Johnson was QB we gave up the seasons all together...we went to the home opener and then 3-4 other games during the year.....then we finally said you know what this isnt fun nor worth our $$ anymore...my last bills game(till last year) was the game after Dick Jauron was canned it was Vs Miami and Bills won. that was the last game..I said ..well we all said nope not another game till they make the playoffs NOTHING! And i think that was what 2009?? so from 2009-2019 we didnt go to a single game, and I did 1 year break down and get a Bills hat for Christmas as my old one was just too nasty to wear anymore...but from 2009- till when they finally made the playoffs they were more or less dead to me...sure i listened on the radio or on a interwebz feed but I really didnt have any passion anymore I knew they would lose and expected them to lose.. Now that they are out of that funk they won me back ..but the BILLS made me go from diehard to a casual fan to what I am now..maybe a Fairweather fan... I guess..... Same deal with the Sabes..thats why I just dont care what they do right at this point because if its another 10 years of the typical Bufflao INEPTLY RUN SPORTS BS....its not like im paying any attention anyways...im not going to games, buying stuff..till they make the playoffs....so while I still hope the win// in UNinvested in them till PLAYOFFS anything else is unacceptable.
  15. Thats the point im FINE with it because this team is so INEPT whats the loss at this point..to me the loss is ZERO...its not like im going to games, buying merchandise or anything... as a matter of fact I was at this point with the Bills also....I finally after almost 20 years(at the time I made this decision they were at 15 years no playoffs) I said same thing..im not going to games or buying a damn thing to support this MEDIOCRITY to downright ineptness..they need to WIN ME BACK! and I did just that I said nothing to support this team till they make the playoffs...and they did that they won me back....im back now im not a "diehard" anymore they ruined that..but they could also win that back....im more of a bandwagon fair weather guy now...but at least im buying stuff and going to games again(3 last year). I have been listening to the Sabres and going to games since 1975 or 76 since I was 5 years old..ive supported them through thick and thin....but they just lost me now as a "diehard" sure I hope they win cheer for them to win but IM DONE no more games, no more merchandise..nothing! till they make the playoffs..I dont think a fan has a voice other than to not give them $$$..and im at that point they are not "entertainment" or "fun" anymore....they are a inept mess...I wont support that...So go ahead and move them if THIS these last lamost 10 years now is what we will keep getting..move them I dont care anymore.. only way they can win me back is winning and playoffs..thats it..
  16. Just sell the Sabres they will run them into the ground with their INEPT ownership
  17. Ok I Re-Read it and it made more sense on the re-read//// I actually had misread it the first time and agreed with him..re-read it and now I see where people may be mad. My original read was Fromm saying: They make suppressors so expensive only elite white people can afford them. (which wasnt what he actually said just what I read it as quickly scanning it) and I was like..he is only stating the truth/// for a regular gun youre gonna do a lot of paperwork and spend about 1K of a decent one...something i cant afford personally...so him saying that they price them so only rich white people could afford them..well take out the white people part and leave elite/rich in there and true.they do I agree... but like I said...thats what I thought he said// what he actually said was more or less..just be sure to price these Suppressors so only elite white people could afford them as if you want to keep them "away" from "others"....that , ah while nothing id get hot over, ...Iget how people could though... I dont agree with only elite white people should get them..I do agree they price the GD things so only rich/elite people can actually AFFORD them thats for sure and its a shame. Id love one but cant afford $700-900 for one+ $200 tax stamp on top of it.. I dont even pay that for the pistol or rifle id be putting it on let alone that..
  18. Ok being new to this and I dont pay attention what did he say that was bad/wrong so I can judge for myself if im horrified, dont care, or agree with him or somewhere inbetween... For a example that thing with Drew Brees.... I actually AGREE with him on his original statements...I think his apology was/is a total PC stunt cop out because he got heat for saying it... but im one that believes the same deal he said.. I for one will not go along with any kind of kneeing DURING a anthem,service or anything showing respect for our flag or nation...and who ever you are no matter how you want to try to explain it away..I believe if you do that at THAT time...youre disrespecting the flag....now that said..If you want me to take a knee just BEFORE or directly AFTER the anthem..I will do so, but Id NEVER EVER take a knee DURING a anthem. And I get its a free country and they have a "right" to do so when ever they want.. I also have a "right" of free thought to think its disrespectful/// So this thing with Fromm what gives what did he say/do and is it being taken out of context because of the current environment?
  19. Its close though i think id have the Bills between 8-10 so not too far off what I thought. Id certainly NOT have the Raiders over them.. and id not have The Raiders,Cowboys over them thats for sure the Titans and Steelers...thats subjective i guess...We played Steelers and barely beat them without ben so I can get them being in the mix same with beating the Titans but with a different QB who got replaced because he sucked. that said BOTH were big road W's...so 8-10 is where the Bills belong IMO.
  20. Who knows they MAY be right...guess we shall see.
