BuffaloRush Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 1 minute ago, Buffalo716 said: Well that’s why I said this year and next year... who really knows if it will last all 4, but I wouldn’t doubt it they aren’t running back to bringing it to Fredonia, and SJF has a good setup its gonna be there at least for a few more years I agree... I think everything’s up in the air a few years down the line. It’s heavily rumored McDermott wants to stay in Buffalo for camp and I really believe that’s a likely solution, especially if he gets a contract extension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comes right out and states clearly how it will be. Why would it need to be addressed with 4 years remaining on the deal? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 The Bills were never leaving Rochester. It is too important to the viability of the franchise. This couldn’t be less of a story. There is no credit to be distributed here. The Bills have a contract and are abiding by it. Why is this a story? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadLandsMeanie Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 1 minute ago, Commonsense said: No. Your excited because camp is staying where you enjoy it and that’s fine. It’s status quo. Did anyone expect her to break the previous agreement and upset a bunch of fans just for the sake of making change in her first week as president of the team? Why would she do that? Kim made another smart move today by not announcing she is moving the Bills and Sabres to Alabama. Yes, they did expect them to break the agreement because the local press has been reporting that this is the last year, and that they will buy their way out of it. There was an article saying exactly that just this week. And for all that time, a YEAR, the Bills said nothing. As has been their way. They have always ignored that sort of thing and just let fans twist and wonder. Now 2 or 3 days on the job and Bam, she says, nope it is not moving. That is why it is being reacted to as it is. Because it is different and it is good. But rather than ask and learn and consider all of that, you just come in and contradict. How come? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is this press release indicative of her intelligence or qualifications? It's calms speculation about SJF without committing to anything beyond the term of the deal. It's a nice way to say buh-bye Edited May 4, 2018 by PromoTheRobot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don’t know if downtown stadium is the best option Build it across from the Ralph in a huge parking lot, when it’s ready , Tear down the Ralph and make that a parking lot saves tailgating and it’s still in OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 59 minutes ago, RoyBatty is alive said: Smart move by a smart woman. This hysteria over not being qualified is a joke. There's a little bit more on her plate than announcing that, for the moment, the organization has decided to hold pattern until they figure out what they are going to do long term. That's all Kim has done here. It's probably too late in the game to change course for this season anyway, even if they wanted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) After the currenr contract i think going away to camp ends anyway. I see no value in it anyway on the field anyway Edited May 4, 2018 by MAJBobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the comments in this thread that you're referencing are valid. Kim basically said nothing substatial in the quote posted, although it comes across as optimistic (that they'll stay at SJF). She basically stated facts, as they currently stand. As of right now, it would be way too late to move camp elsewhere, unless the Bills have had secret talks with another facility for some time now, which I doubt. But if the idea is to move the camp next year, talks either are underway, or will be soon, and they could probably buy their way out of the remaining years of the contract at SJF. Basically, her quote reassures nothing after this year. That doesn't mean they WILL move, but it doesn't mean they WON'T either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
