The Bills have been kick around for a long time by the media & the good old boy network of the NFL. Things are changing & the Bills are at the forefront of what's happening in the world. I think it's part of a new era for the Bills. Sorry if someone posted the same thoughts' I didn't have time to read the whole thread. You too, I, well, I mean your first sentence was just.................. I mean Good post!

This is one of those, not what he said posts that I been noticing so much on here. It isn't my post this time around so I can be objective Why are there so many posts on here that respond to something that the poster being quoted, didn't say?

I have a feeling that now the people taking over the team are more settled in and can build a winning culture. I couldn't imagine what it would be like to buy a football team and how long it would take to settle in and really own it. Part of evaluating a corporation after you purchase it is figuring out how to make it more successful. Especial in the case of the Bills. They more than likely have been searching for the problems since they bought it.

Greatdane21 Posted May 5, 2018 Posted May 5, 2018 I'm just thankful that Trump didn't get his hands on the Bills ,what a hot mess that would have been?

I have never even seen a Wilson's market, and everytime I go to Tops the tix are gone.... I'm talking like 8 years running. Only way I have gotten to a night practice was to buy them (I think I paid $10 for 3 or something) from a guy on craigslist.

LeGOATski Posted May 5, 2018 Posted May 5, 2018 Hopefully, they'll move training camp to Phoenix, AZ. I promise Kim that I'll be there every year.

I said IF McDermott was still HC when the contract renewal came up, then he'd have input, but he'd have to do something spectacular -- like winning the SB -- in order to completely override competing considerations as to where hold TC. I don't believe that the Pegulas are going to cede the right to make what is essentially a business decision to a head coach unless he does something spectacular.

I don't believe that the Pegulas are going to cede the right to make what is essentially a business decision to a head coach unless he does something spectacular. Even if McD were to do something spectacular within the next 4 seasons (and I'd argue that last season qualified to smaller extent), it was accomplished while having training camp at SJF. So then, what's the reason for moving it? Obviously it's not hurting the product on the field and it's helping the business side.
Keukasmallie Posted May 5, 2018 Posted May 5, 2018 Kim Pegula's statement sends shivers through the SJF hierarchy because of its politically-phrased total lack of content. In terms of commitment and content it ranks up there with agreeing that Rochester is about seventy-six miles from Buffalo.
dlonce Posted May 5, 2018 Posted May 5, 2018 I’d love to see training camp back here in the Buffalo area, but I really have no aversion to Rochester camp. I used to ride my bike to Niagara University back in the OJ Simpson era. Lots of fond memories. Skip Fredonia too.

A the current rate, the "tailgating issue" may be a great incentive to move stadium downtown and stop the tailgating once and for all!

Buffalo is the way it is because of our loyal, die hard fan base take away the tailgating and you take away EVERYTHING that represents Bills fans because that’s what separates us it is a tradition that goes back to the beginning of the Bills Put the stadium downtown and get ready for crazy high prices, PSLs, 5 hour traffic jams and still drunk ***holes
