T&C Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 49 minutes ago, Johnnycage46 said: So, if Erie County owns the Bills' stadium...do the Bills have zero say in the naming rights? So, for instance, as outrageous as it would be, if some company bid to name the stadium "Tom Brady" stadium...and for whatever reason, Erie County approved it, the Bills would just be stuck with that name? Again, ridiculous scenario, but I imagine there is a potential for a stadium name that the Bills organization would not like... Nick Veronica @NickVeronica · 19m The #Bills lease with Erie County has a section on stadium naming rights. The stadium name "shall not unreasonably cause embarrassment to the County." The name is subject to approval from the county. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keukasmallies Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Dear Mrs. Pegula, Please forego soliciting bids for naming rights to the football stadium. Make a popular decision and decree that the name shall be hence forth and evermore Ralph Wilson Memorial Stadium, aka "The Ralph." Thank you for your attention to my recommendation. Respectfully, Keukasmallie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when barstool was just a boston thing. Now, it’s a major company. and barstool has some terrible things but they do give the Bills and their fans a lot of love. turns out there's big money in being a douchebag. You have no problem screwing people over and other douchebags will love you. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dislike him because he acts like the quintessential annoying American college bro d-bag. He has a history of demeaning women. His humor isn't funny. He sucks up to Trump. He's just a super-douche. He represents everything I can't stand about our culture. I agree in some respects. Some of the stuff is way over the top for my liking. However, in his defense he says a lot of stuff out loud that a lot of men think and act on but prefer to hide in sheep's clothing. Rather deal with him than hypocrites who pretend to be something they aren't. On the Trump thing, not everything is about someone's political leanings. And from what I've seen in interviews Portnoy is the son of liberal lawyer and school teacher parents and doesnt align with a political party. Kind of weird his parents would raise such a college bro....Suppose Biden's choice of Cardi B as an interviewer is more your speed? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeviF Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Predictably, everyone who says "Barstool bad" can't articulate why Barstool is bad. Same people probably think that ESPN is still good. Lames. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) We'd be remiss to not acknowledge the immeasurable contributions of Barstool's Big Cat and PFT Commenter when it comes to Josh Allen being on this team and being the man he is today.

uticaclub Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 There’s no companies left upstate that can afford naming rights for an NFL Stadium. I think this would be great! A growing and thriving empire like Barstool wanting to be affiliated with Buffalo is awesome 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's good to know...but I think it could be argued that naming the stadium with something relating to another team or even a Pegula business rival, wouldn't inherently be embarrassing to the County, but surely could be to the Bills or the Pegulas. I still doubt Barstool gets the bid though. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
