  1. If you are expecting the best bbq you have ever had; forget it. If you are expecting the best bbq you ever had at a football stadium? Maybe.

     

    What you get at the Ralph will probably be similar to what you get at the New York State Great Fair (or the catering business.) The best bbq you ever had? No. Pretty decent bbq for a big event. You bet'ya.

  2. The Bills are not doing anything every other team has probably done. I'm sure every team in the league has complained about their schedule some time in their history.

     

    Having media members criticize the Bills for it is amusing. I'd guess that some media in every town must have done the same when each team complained. But you would also think that there would be at least equal amounts of media who would piggy back off the team and criticize the league.

  3. I agree John. Are the Bills always going to complain when things don't go their way? Like you said, the Bills complained about having numerous games at the Ralph after Thansgiving because the poor weather conditions at that time of year was having an effect on ticket sales. The NFL granted the Bills wish this year, yet they are still complaining! Back in the late 80's thru the mid 90's, selling out the Ralph in December & January was never a problem because the team was winning. If the Bills would focus on having competent management & coaches running this organization, then they wouldn't need to come up with excuses for their shortcomings.

     

    Of course maybe they were winning because their opponents didn't have extra time off before they played the Bills? Someone would have to check that out. :)

     

     

    As for the league doing the Bills a favor by having more late season games as away games - that also benefits the NFL as those games end up selling more tickets which increases the league revenue.

  4. the Bills complaints laid out in the article also conveniently neglect to mention the Bills play a home game in Toronto, in which they prefer to have it played against an NFC opponent.

    that's all well and good, but had the NFL schedule-maker scheduled, say, New England, to play in Toronto, then the Bills would have one fewer game against a more-rested opponent, no?

    No way to know this as chaging the Toronto game to say NE would require the entire NFL schedule to be modified.
