  1. Ralph got a great reception. He had a nice speech. He opened with a pretty good joke. He said in 50 years he has given a lot of rings away but never recieved one himself... ha ha then he closed with his dream is still to bring a superbowl to the peopl of buffalo. It was a heartfelt speech in my opinion

     

    And as long as he owns this team, bringing a Superbowl to the people of Buffalo will only be a dream.

  2. We do support the team at our ticket prices...what are you going on about?

     

    Teams don't make their money off of ticket sales. If they do, it's off of their luxury boxes. This post, and your polemic are fairly irrelevant, as our ticket prices have no relation to the possibility of the team moving.

     

    Of course we support our team at our ticket prices, but Ralph is constantly crying poor and moved games to Toronto for Xtra money. Raising prices $20 would raise 15 Million extra a year, not chump change. He claims our community is too poor and has to keep prices down. Well, that is his old stubborn opinion, I would much rather have my season tickets raised than constantly be reminded that this team might move.

  3. I came across this study today, if it has already been posted, I AM SORRY! No need to slap my paddies!

     

    The average NFL ticket costs $75

     

    The Bills by far have the lowest priced ticket at $51.25

     

    I am so sick and tired of Ralph crying poor when he has underpriced his product, proof being that a horrible team sells out season after season.

     

    If Ralph were to raise ticket prices by $20 across the board, we would still be below the leage average. Over the course of 10 games, yes ten, I am not counting Toronto, he would make an additional $15Million dollars. I am sorry to say this, but if the Buffalo community can not support a team at what would be below average prices, then maybe it is time for them to go. However, I think our community would support this as opposed to being held hostage year after year.

     

    Here is a link to the study

  4. Galisano= 1.2B

    Jacobs= 1.0B

    Rich= 1.9B

    Trump= 2.9B (I only bring up Trump because he used to own the Las Vegas team that Jim Kelly played for, might actually be one of the silent investors Kelly is claiming to have in his pocket)

     

    Jim Kelly played for the Houston Gamblers

     

    Donald Trump owned the N.J. Generals.

     

    Nice job doing your homework!

  5. After watching the MNF Game one this is apparent, the Phins and the j.e.t.s. both look to have long term solutions at QB. Both of those guys looked liked seasoned vets tonight. Of course the Pats have a Hall of Famer. The Bills? The Bills have NOTHING. A starter is who afraid to throw the ball and no young talent behind him.

  6. I am pretty sure most of those who are calling for the boycotts do not have money invested in season tickets, yet they will B word and moan the most when the team moves because of a so called lack of support or will be the ones knocking down our doors for tickets when and if the Bills ever make the playoffs.
