  1. I was able to get the game on TV from the Watertown station.  Towards the end of the first half, I started turning the TV off, then decided to turn it back on.  See the Oilers score, turn it back off, rinse, repeat.  At some point after the Bills first score in the 3rd quarter, I left it on for the rest of the game.  I wish they had showed the people trying to get back in the stadium, since the announcers were saying that they were climbing the fences.

    I don't think it will survive. Springtime is the NHL/NBA playoffs plus baseball season is in full swing. The quality of play in these leagues is poor as the top talent will always go to the NFL.

     

    I'm the average NFL fan, I don't care about any of the other sports leagues.  I watch more NCAA March Madness games than I do any NHL/NBA/MLB games combined.  Will I watch the UFL?  Maybe, but not enough to really get into it.

    I thought it would be taller. 🤷🏼‍♂️

     

    They'll just slap some of those temporary metal bleacher seats like Jerry used in Arlington for the SB that one year, and call it done.

    I wonder if they are behind schedule?  Drove by the site last Saturday, and they were working away(not just a skeleton crew)…on a holiday weekend no less. 

     

    OT plus holiday weekend pay = $$$.  Probably getting a weeks' worth of pay for one day's work.

    The point is it would have been a dome. 

     

    Don’t worry, with the price of tickets and PSLs in the new stadium as well as mostly team run parking, the majority of crowds at Bills games after the new stadium is built will be the wine and cheese crowd that show up 30 minutes before kickoff. 

     

    Um, excuse me.  I won't be that late.  It'll be 45 minutes, want to beat the rush.

    Many Bills fans will do what many Jets and Giants fans did. Drop their season tickets to avoid PSL fees and just purchase individual game tickets throughout the season. 

     

    That's my plan, unless by some miracle I can get equal seats to what I have now, at 2004 pricing.

    But the counterargument that the NFL would give is many fans at one point did not get NFL Network, or Amazon Prime.

     

    I remember a time when not every cable provider would carry NFL Network.

    The FAA was intent on forcing all jet operators to go to ORD. The City of Chicago was not willing to part with the tax and associated other revenue derived from there, wo they worked out a deal for Southwest to operate there, The exact same thing happened in Dallas with Dallas Love vs. DFW.

    That's why Southwest is there also, and nobody else is, and it's a huge financial advantage.

     

    Delta flies into Love Field now, I was on a flight to there just a couple months ago.  Not sure when they started back up.  The pilot did mention something like "they are the only other airline than the purple one to fly to Love Field".

    I don’t know the exact number of times. But Hamlin again inactive today. How many games has he been inactive this year? My guess is at least 10. Kinda hurts the argument for being a comeback player when you don’t play the majority of the time. 

     

    He has only played in 5 of the 16 games this season.

    Conclusion: Sit ‘em, and it’s not close.  The fish might do the same though.  Skylar vs. Kyle?  It’d be fun watching Collinsworth explain, right?  He’d say right 900 times right?

     

    Kyle is the better Allen.  The Bills are 7-0 when he plays, 3-6 when he does not get to play.

    Somewhat related - Didn't Reggie Bush set a record for futility rushing the one year he played for us?  Like the most # of carries w/ negative net yards?  I think Kyle has him beat.  Doesn't he have like 10 or 12 -1 yard runs by now?


    When Reggie Bush played, the Bills were 4-9, and 3-0 when he did not play.  The Bills never should have never let him take the field.
