  1. I remember going over this in my contract law class, it was Kenford Company v. Erie County. I went to law school in Florida so it was pretty cool seeing a case from back home.
  2. Owning 1% or 5% of a business doesn't give you much of a voice in how things are run. But by Jim Kelly owning 1%-5%, he would likely gain the following two things: It's an investment in a business - Owning a small percentage of a publicly traded company doesn't mean you get to decide the day to day operations of how thing run, but you can reap the profits of the organization's work. Jim Kelly is arguably the most famous Buffalo Bill of all time - Given his status with the franchise, he would likely have more of an influence on the decisions made by those who own a larger share of the organization.
  3. I'm 32, and I have loved the Bills since my first game in 1984 (A year they went 2-14). There was a time when you could make fun of me, my friends and my family and still not arouse the level of wrath and ire that would erupt if you bad mouthed the Bills. But I swore off going to Bills games in 2008 after the Cleveland game on Monday night. What ruined my "Game Day Experience"? It wasn't seeing people drunk or acting obnoxious, it was: -Having to wait a half hour in line to get in (because apparently you can only enter at the gate designated on your ticket despite the fact they all lead to the same stadium). -Having Gate 1 slammed shut on us because the security personnel felt people were getting "too rowdy". I'll spare you the suspense... it didn't calm the crowd down. -Subjective refusals of entry by mean tempered security guards using no objective standard. -Increased pricing for parking -Watching a substandard product on the field -Witnessing the Bills once again tanking another game at the last moment on national television. I decided then and there that I can no longer in good conscious keep supporting an organization of such ill repute that continues to treat its fans with nothing but disgust and contempt. It baffles me that so many of you can continue to blindly support this organization, much the same way it baffles me how a battered woman can continue to support her husband despite the fact he abuses her.
  4. My guess is the more plausible scenario after Ralph dies would be like that of the half-life described in the Philip K. Dick novel UBIK. Where as the corpse is kept alive in a state of suspended animation, and people are allowed to converse with them on limited occasions via a telephone-like device. This is the only viable way I can seem him continually screwing up the draft year after year.
