    So investments...

     

    Let's say I get a pair of tickets for the new stadium with the intention of going to three games a year, and selling the other 5-6 games.  For those three years, I go to the games I want to, and use the profits from sales pay the ticket price for those games, and collect the extra profits pay off the PSL fee I incurred.  

     

    Then after three years I sell the PSL rights to someone else who pays 25% more then what I paid (which is now all profit as I used sales of seats to pay off the PSLs)

     

    I've watched bills games for free for three years, and made good coin selling off the psl's.  Sounds like an investment with added benifits to me.

     

    And for those who say i'll just go to 2-3 games a year - FACE VALUE price on ticketmaster for the worst seat in the house for the KC game is $356.00.

     

    I think it's a pretty decent investment as a bills fan.

    That will never work. Lots of other teams have figured out this "season tickets holders selling tickets to recoup costs" scheme and the Bills will shut it down just like other teams have done.

     

    They are your season tickets but you do not have the right to sell them.

     

    Home teams are afraid of home games being filled with opposing fans like if the steelers came to town. 

     

    Bottom line if you cant afford the tickets then don't buy them.

     

    Here is an example of the Colts penalizing their season ticket holders for selling their season tickets

    I just read the complaint linked in the article in the OP.

     

    the gist is he suddenly came into her room uninvited and said he was “high as F,” and then raped her. That is obviously egregious, If true.
     

    The common SA cases on college campuses seem to involve both parties being intoxicated and disagreements over consent. That’s not how this one is being framed. 

    The lawsuit was filed Tuesday in federal court in Kentucky by a woman who claims Hairston entered her dorm room without being invited, ignored her when she said didn’t want to have sexual intercourse, forcibly removed her bottoms and sexually assaulted her.
    The Associated Press does not typically name alleged victims of sexual assault.

    When you’ve made your mind up, you latch on to things that support your beliefs…..whether they actually help your point, or not.  Please don’t look so closely at the facts, because it sounds good and that’s all we want to know. 

     

    McD isn’t just losing to a group of middling HC’s that happened to make the playoffs. He’s mostly losing to a 1st ballot HOF coach with a 1st ballot HOF QB. It’s his job to beat them, but let’s not pretend it’s an easy task. I think he gets over the hump eventually, but we’ll have to wait and see. 

    Mr. @Augie with all due respect sir, yes it's not easy to beat Reid.

     

    If Reid is playing chess and McDermott is playing checkers, should we try to find a different coach and try something different?

     

    It's been 10 years with McDermott. He is 0-5 against the elite teams in the playoffs. 

     

    Do we try the same thing over and over and expect a different result (Definition of Insanity)

     

    Or do we leap forward in a new spirit of daring and try something different?

     

    I think Josh deserves better

    If the Bills were in the NFC, we would still have had to play the Bengals and Chiefs in the last 4 Superbowls.

     

    We are 0-5 in the playoffs vs those teams.

     

    I keep saying this and it's been said by others as well.

     

    McDermott is exactly like Marty Schottenheimer v2.0.

     

    He's the perfect coach to lead the Bills out of the drought and back to respectability much like Marty led the Chargers back to respectability. 

     

    But poor Marty could never lead the Chargers over the next hump which was playoffs and super bowl,

    Exactly like McDermott 

     

    People make fun of Rivers but he was a great QB in his day who was a victim of poor coaching.

     

    I'm afraid the same fate awaits Josh until we get rid of McDermott. 

     

    The definition of insanity is to try the same thing over and over and expect a different result. 

     

    Here we are in McDermotts 10th year and we keep expecting something different to happen. 

     

    Please remember the lesson of Marty Schottenheimer and Philip Rivers.

     

    I pray we're not making the same mistake with McDermott and Josh

    In response to a question on Cook's contract he said, "He's one of the best backs in the league and hopefully that gets reflected soon." 

     

    Let's not be penny wise and pound foolish.

     

    Josh has authorized it.

    He's going to have injury issues. He was hurt at Kentucky his senior year. Very small frame, said to be a fairly physical tackler. I just don't see the durability here. Time will tell. 

    Are you sure ?

     

    Our inside British draft source made no mention that he's injury prone
