This isn't a community owned team(s). What is this Kim is co owner stuff? If Terry and Kim got divorced, would they split the team? My money is on, well, no.

DC Tom Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 What I get from this thread is that there's no way Kin Pegula should be allowed even for a day in a position that Russ Brandon couldn't learn in 20 years. Seems like a perfectly rational position to take... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah last year we got over the hump and don't have to listen to national pundits make jokes about the drought. It certainly doesn't hurt the psyche to have that behind us. We may take a step backwards this year, maybe not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My money is on, well, no. This Co owner stuff comes from everyone under the sun calling her that. She's not Kim pegula, wife to the owner of the bills. She's Kim pegula, Co owner of the bills. I think they would have corrected the media by now if it was wrong. Edited May 3, 2018 by The Wiz 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My money is on, well, no. They were married when they purchased the team. She literally owns half of it. If they were to get divorced, the team would be an asset of marriage. So yes, they'd split the team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I am saying we Have a Team and we almost didn't. thats was a rather Big deal for some of us! Thats a starting point. Looks like they have learned from the Marrone Rex errors ( too early ) But the trend is slower than some of us wish. I think a foundations is being built brick by brick by Pegulas. Kool aid ? perhaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 For me, same rule applies to Kim as for anybody else in a new position with the Bills, player or front office. Unless their actions cause me to change my mind, I support them 100%. Congrats Kim. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My money is on, well, no. Ask Donald Sterling how that went. His wife wasn't even a "co-owner" she was literally just his wife, had nothing to do with the team. Kim is actually involved in day to day running of the team, and the two of them own their sporting enterprise together, and manage it together. If they got divorced, they would either liquidate assets (aka sell the teams and dissolve the sporting company that they own all the teams under), or one of them would remain owner of it all, while the other got a buyout or accepted a residual % of the profits. 23 minutes ago, TheTruthHurts said: My point is she has to actually accomplish something to get praise. You're saying she's not qualified, and to hire somebody else, without even giving her a chance to accomplish something, for which you say she must do before you'll praise her. 1 minute ago, LabattBlue said: The Vegas Golden Knights say hello. expansion draft where you get to choose from a pool of players is not the same as buying a franchise that did not get an expansion draft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got to pick some of the better players from every team in the league in a single season. They did it overnight because they were given everyone elses 2nd line players.

Either way, they were able to put a team together by picking who they thought would be the best together. And having fleury in net will win you a bunch of games on his own. Say what you want about how old he is but his GAA is still damn good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 2 hours ago, 3rdand12 said: Its an opinion. it a fair opinion at that. I do not agree. No, it really isn’t a fair opinion at all. The Buffalo Bills have an overall record of 30 wins and 30 losses, to include playoffs, since the Pegula’s bought the Buffalo Bills. Rookie owner, taking over a team that was in the midst of year 14 of the playoff drought when he took over. I’d say he has done quite fine for the community. And, concerning the Sabres, a tear down was needed, which he didn’t quite get when he took over there.. Those take time and, in fact, for those that understand the game of hockey, this past year was the real first disappointing season since the rebuild began. The Sabres had some luck last weekend and have a generational talent coming in on defense. the Sabres are far from writing the last chapter in this eras book. Take a look around Key Bank Center......and remember what is was like around there 5 years ago. This Pegula bashing is for idiots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"She slept with the boss." It's kind of an empty honor. It's not like she worked her way up and got the job. Her husband bought her the team and she appointed herself. A bit of a pyrrhic victory for feminism. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
