Bills Fan in MD Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 The vote was just unanimous? Not super-unanimous or extra-special-unanimous? How about being done by proclamation?

May Day 10 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 well, its over. Unbelievable. No more path Toronto or LA. No more questions hanging over our heads, dark cloud on gamedays (telling myself to enjoy because there 'aint that many left)... Not only that, Pegula will no doubt be determined to make the Bills into a/the model NFL franchise. That is what he is doing with the Sabres, and if you do more than look at the standings from last season, you can easily see he is true to his word. He is going to make us Pittsburgh, but perhaps even better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I think he hinted it was longer ago than that. Maybe. Although he did say it wasn't even a thought in his head ten years ago. I guess it matters from when he would dream of it versus when it was a serious consideration. He always seemed a little more of a hockey fan although like a lot of us he's just a huge sports fan in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 @gregaiello Terry & Kim Pegula are unanimously approved as the new owners of the #BuffaloBills. Congrats to the Wilson & Pegula families. Done!!!! Awesome!! @dkaplanSBJ Pegula I am told will speak at 10:15 but just four lines and will take no questions. His reasoning is deal has not closed Yup. Businessmen don't pop the champagne until the deal is closed. Deal ain't closed until the papers are signed and the wire transfer is confirmed. Ha -- a couple of guys got questions in. One of them: "do you think you got a good deal?" Pegula: "I got a heluva deal. I own the team." VIVA EL PEGUAL! Great answer. I haven't had a sig line in years, but that's too good to pass up.

Campy Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I cannot express how pleased I am with the manner in which the Pegulas conducted themselves throughout this process. Contrast Kim and Terry with the poop-show that was Bon Jovi's group and the absolute farce that is Donald Trump. The team, the city, and the region are the real winners. Thank you Terry and Kim. Not just for buying the team and keeping them in WNY, but for being pure class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
