CodeMonkey Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Russ should just do the right thing and leave on his own. He's putting the Pegulas in a tough situation The Pegulas made him president of the Sabres as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 More people without a single clue what Brandon does for PSE No, looking at a recent poll, it's about 1 out of 3 people on this board who are more than happy to give him a pass for:1. Every awful move he made before 2013. 2. Hiring Doug Marrone to be the HC. 3. Promoting Doug Whaley to be the GM. 4. Doing everything in his power to keep the band of lifers together. Talk about defending the indefensible. That 33% deserves the past 17 years of failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 All before current ownership put him in his current job. ....exactly......strictly Business Administration/Marketing......Pegula made the wise move, getting him put of arenas he was not qualified for and back to where his roots are....Brandon loved the change....so now he'll perform to Terry's satisfaction or Pegula still has some pink slips in his desk drawer.............

jeffismagic Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 All before current ownership put him in his current job. Which is to help find coaches and GM's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What a Tuel Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 They'd focus on Kim as my guess...there's always someone else to blame whether it's rational or not Nope. Terry. They have already started with the "he is out of his depth with these franchises" stories. It won't be long before we start hearing media say "We won't win until we have competent ownership".

It won't be long before we start hearing media say "We won't win until we have competent ownership". In that case the Bills will win...in another city.

What a Tuel Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 "When we started this process, we -- Kim, myself, Russ was involved, and others -- we put together four or five lists of potential candidates, cross-referenced them, and, you know, Sean was one of the individuals," Terry Pegula said. "Brandon's name showed up on most of the lists, if not all of them. So from that, and from discussions with people outside the organization, we picked the candidates we wanted to interview. But Sean's involvement was no more than writing a name on a piece of paper, which he wrote seven or eight names." http://buffalonews.com/2017/05/12/terry-pegula-explains-involved-sean-mcdermott-russ-brandon-gm-search/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigK14094 Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Is brandon responsible for getting rid of the organ player at the sabres games? It doesn't sound like an Organ anymore, and they don't seem to be as good at whatever instrument that they are playing. If so - Brandon's got to go. Yes, canned garbage now. (couldn't use a stronger word) Used to have live organist that played to the crowd and game situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 So it's acceptable to you that he still has his nose in the football side. It depends. If Beane and McDermott are successful then Brandon had nothing to do with it. If they fail then he is solely responsible. I read on the Sabres board that Russ Brandon is now the reason why the Amerks are so bad, and why milk curdles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now it's clear. You dislike Bob Matthews because he is negative towards OBD. Cool. And a joke pretty much. Another one that can't let go of Ralph Wilson's people.
