I mean the letter is pretty pointless and nondescript but for a franchise as bad as the Bills you’d think they would reach out to their entire fan base. Beane called me directly on Friday. I thought it was a nice touch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belicheck is salivating now.

BobbyC81 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 38 minutes ago, ticketssince61 said: not sure why the team makes such a big deal about 10 draft picks. All of the extra picks are late round selections (I think 4, 6 and 7) That's what I think every time I see that. Hopefully they can package some of those lower round picks for another 2nd day pick.

There is no competitive advantage to be gained if Bill Belichick read this letter. 22 minutes ago, Binghamton Beast said: Only a Bills fan would be dumb enough to think 31 other GM’s around the league don’t know what the Bills needs are.

He also gave a little love to the season ticket holders for their support.... He did mention that we will try to get better.....I bet Belichick will be shocked to hear that! Geez....giving up trade secrets like that is not how professionals handle their business. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I appreciate the letter and I like Brandon Beane. But as our former GM Foghorn Leghorn once said: I don't wanna hear about the labor pains, just show me the baby. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 It was a necessary “checking in” sort of fluff piece, to let the masses outside of OBD know that work is proceeding on track and at a torrid pace. Strangely, I do feel an iota better after having read it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Belichick is on to us now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember reading that the 2017 and 2018 figures weren’t released, just noted that both exceeded 50k. I thought I remember hearing that season tickets last year were in the high 30s.

PromoTheRobot Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 1 hour ago, Buddy Hix said: Ha, I just meant that the team could release a letter to all fans on their website, no need to rely on the US postal service....is the mail even being delivered with the rotating shutdowns? Not left out, under appreciated. And any fan who has stuck by this team shouldn’t feel under appreciated. Well you know about it now. Mission accomplished.

It’s a stewardship move, a little warm and fuzzy communication before sending out the season ticket renewal notices. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
