Charles Romes Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Nothing stabilizes a franchise like winning big. Best example the NJ Devils. As good as gone then became a dynasty primarily by instituting a change in the way the game is played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) Next time a pats fan calls us the toronto bills http://articles.balt...nsion-franchise crazy how much things can change in the NFL landscape. I know the article is a little old but if you jump ahead a few years & change the franchise (if the new stadium project isn't looked at a bit more seriously) it could sound an awful lot like our Bills very soon !!! And given what Brandon said about the stadium project being a non starter you can almost bet that you will be able to use that same article for our team ! That's what we get for having a reactive FO instead of a proactive FO . Keep up the good work Russ .. Edited October 29, 2012 by T master Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) Once we get that new stadium, a real coach and QB, we will be the envy of the league!!!!! BTW, the article supports my theory that all Patriots fans are band-wagon. The main part where it says that the fans/city was doing little to attempt to keep the team.

Keep up the good work Russ .. i see it more as, get a good qb, win some games, begin 15 year sell out streak. the best part is, if we go on to dominate for 12 years like the pats have, and brady and beliceck retire, and kraft dies, do the pats move??

MrLocke Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I live in Canada and get most of my television from Boston. I believe Bob Kraft actually had to sign a deal with the city of Hartford to move the team there and build a new stadium before the new stadium was built in Foxboro.

Homey D. Clown Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 There will be no new stadium built in Buffalo, or anywhere else in WNY. If the G.D. state can't invest any time into improving the cities economic viability, what on God's green earth does anyone even think for one nano second that this would ever happen. Have any of you on this board walked down Main st. recently? It's like a F-ing ghost town. I LOVE the city of Buffalo, but until the state of NY changes it's view of the cities that exist outside of the Metro NYC area, then the decline will continue to devastate the rest of the state. Losing the Bills is just a small coin in the piss bucket. Doom and Gloom? Ummm... yeah. I have been in Nashville since 1999, and it has done nothing but grow, why? Because the state invests time, money , and energy in growing it economically, and has a regional approach to it's government. I pray to God that the Bills never leave Buffalo, but it's not looking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
