There's a reason most offices have a dress code and a rule against masturbating at your desk, and it's not because the SJWs are after you. Jeepers, do I have to go back and read our company handbook again. Edited May 1, 2018 by dollars 2 donuts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter consensual or not. Its part of the role. You are the company, the entity, the owner's representative, the ultimate operational authority. You approve hiring, firing, promoting. Any relationship that becomes intimate or personal is seen internally and externally as one that could compromise the company and compromise your decision-making ability. If you don't get this -- I am really at a loss for how to explain it other than this. This is exactly correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmsmystic Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 You know I saw some Bills news flash on the NFL network ticker and ran online to see what it was. When I found out it was about Russ, well it was essentially a non-event for me. living outside of Buffalo and having no interest in hockey, this news is meh. Russ did a nice job marketing a nationally irrelevant team in a very small market. Now the fact he presided over the entire drought is certainly a negative. Hopefully this begins a new era for the Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is everyone else in the world you can “play” with. ALMOST the entire popultion of the planet! This is horrible judgement and it makes me seriously question the man. The scrapes and bruises he faces includes the loss of a 7 figure job and public shame to go with a discredited professional reputation. Ooops! I had a guy who worked for me at a bank, who I sighted several times with a young lady who reported to him. I gently let him know I had noticed, and she found work at another bank. There are very good reasons this is not appropriate behavior, many of which have been cited above. (They are still happily married about 25 years later ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously he should have never been put in a GM role but that was Ralph Wilson's decision. He's also responsible for developing training camp at St. John Fisher which is typically referred to one of the nicest and most fan-interactive camps in the league by those that visit it. I wonder what's causing the shake up? I'd assume they feel pretty good about the Bills right now. Ended the drought in the third year of their ownership. Just pulled the trigger and drafted what they think is their franchise QB. Hired the head coach they wanted all along, even before Rex. Sabres, on the other hand, tanked an entire season for nothing. Constant upheaval at the top since they bought the team. Dismal last two seasons, each with different coaches that can't seem to reach the players or figure out the best way to utilize their players. Should be interesting to learn more. EDIT - In the time I spent typing up this post the information behind Brandon's departure was added to the thread. So uh... welp. Seems like Russ is a dingbat. I live in California so I’ve only been to one game in buffalo it was amazing!!! But all you guys on this board that go to those games and consistently sell them out should take the credit!!! Not Russ Brandon and his slimy sales tactics!! After all its you guys that make it fun to go to those meaningless games in December not because of Russ Brandon but the tailgating (table jumping) and crowd energy! Keep it up!! Love it!! Bye ??

Hmmmmm That is a interesting take when your talking about your job. Is Brandon married? Have kids? those "scrapes" can be expensive. For me it goes deeper then that.....I would have to go home and look those kids in the eye. Different interpretations of being a "man" I guess.

Nihilarian Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Not entirely surprising as I've heard things about the man over the years from people that knew him personally. That at times he was a weasel. I never wanted him fired, just away from the football side. Now though, glad he is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People in WNY are just passionate about the Bills and are always gonna go to the games. Not entirely true. Rochester fan base was energized by the SJF training camp move and the So. Ontario fan base grew. He was a solid marketer, just not a great football guy. I wouldn't denigrate his success because of what he did in a role he should if never been in. Sorry he trashed his gig with misconduct. Self inflicted wound Russ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QCity Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 We probably won't sell out any more games now that the marketing whiz is gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacobo Peterman Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I'm sure there are many people who arent surprised by this. I feel sorry for his family. Don't think Training Camp at Fisher will extend past the current deal 2021? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
