C.Biscuit97 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I know a small handful who have moved back. The vast majority of Buffalonians I know who moved to NYC have stayed here (including me). There are a lot of Buffalonians here. Moving back does happen, however. My brother is moving back from Brooklyn to Buffalo after 5 years. He is still getting his NYC salary here so instead of splitting an apartment paying $1250, he will buy a house. I love visiting NYC but I have zero desire to live there unless I was a multi millionaire, which I'm not yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM2009 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I wonder if her reporting may be a bit skewed at times? It's a nice add for visual purposes though For sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 (edited) Certainly not for everybody. I think I could've made the jump right after college, but now I don't think I could. Wife likes the city in small doses only. It definitely takes getting used to, and that takes a lot of time. I couldn't live anywhere else at this point, but I totally understand why people get burned out on it and leave.

Solomon Grundy Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 (edited) I was already followng her on twitter. @viccarucci[/ Absolutely thrilled to welcome @KMart_LI to the @TBNSports staff! Tremendous talent and an even better person. Beautiful addition!!! Welcome to the B-Lo, KMart. Kelly wasn't a target by those two. Marv was. The O-line was ripped.... the fat girls down the street would be better at blocking, the ball was snapped and these guys fell on their back like 2-dollar *****s... I see it as being totally outcoached by Parcells and Belichick and then the Bills got mercilessly impaled on a stick to die in the hot sun the last 3. Casper Milquetoast.

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 It definitely takes getting used to, and that takes a lot of time. I couldn't live anywhere else at this point, but I totally understand why people get burned out on it and leave. Both of my brothers lived there for years. My one lived mostly in Manhattan, and my other one lived in bay ridge brooklyn. Smartphone apps make taking the trains super easy for tourists/new people FWIW.

Billschinatown Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Both of my brothers lived there for years. My one lived mostly in Manhattan, and my other one lived in bay ridge brooklyn. Smartphone apps make taking the trains super easy for tourists/new people FWIW. I feel like it's not hard to navigate once you get used to public transportation. The biggest turn off about NYC, for me, is how geniunely filthy the entire place is. Even the best looking restaurants and nice buildings are rat havens.

flomoe Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Buffalo still has a newspaper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Buffalo still has a newspaper? People still need it to wrap fish and put at bottom of bird cages. My mom's bird used to only like to go in cage when the weekend color comics were on bottom otherwise would stand on top of cage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Buffalo still has a newspaper? Yes, but print is obviously not the focus just as it isn't for any city's "newspaper". Obviously the present and future is as an online media content producer with ad revenue as a key component. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Interestingly she has not listed Buffalo News on her LinkedIn profile yet. Maybe she does not want to let Sully, Bucky, etc be able to send her an invite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malazan Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Are we allowed to read her columns if she's critical of the Bills? I feel so conflicted...... No one has a problem with "critical" articles. The mindless ranting and raving with little point hasn't been worth reading for years not though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonabb Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Just what the paper needs... more opinions. How about some good reporters, people who know and understand sports, strategy, salary caps, etc. Instead we get schlock like that Yucky snarky parenthesis column article this morning, filled with no talent or skill, just arrogant snark. This woman, who may or may not be talented, will likely come here and add to that snark, trying to make a name for herself as she attempts to continue to rise the media ladder. This is not a permanent stop for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted August 29, 2017 Author Share Posted August 29, 2017 (edited) I really like this addition, TBN! @christrapasso Announcement: I've joined @TheBuffaloNews as a #Bills writer contributing (mostly) analytics and draft articles. I'm incredibly excited. This is part of [b/N] Blitz's expansion which will be available to all News subscribers or those who subscribe specifically to [bN] Blitz... ...when the new [b/N] Blitz formally launches, as part of @TBNSports, a free 2-week trial will be offered.

Shaw66 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 (edited) She left Manhattan for Buffalo? I think the Pegulas had some very frank conversations with the News about the crap they've allowed their columnists to print. I think they told the News that if they wanted to continue to have access, they need to print something better than Sullivan's usual whining. No inside info, but I'd guess that this woman got a nice salary bump (justified in part because she's moving from beat writer to columnist). Plus, her paper isn't close to the top rag in NYC. The real sports fans look to the Daily News and the Post before they bother with Newsday. Doesn't mean they don't have good people there or do good work; just means that she isn't exactly leaving a big-time paper (even tho Newsday's circulation is bigger than the News, by a lot).
