Here's the thing Clowns(not you) have been talking bills relocation for 25 plus years.. it wasn't feasible then And it's not now The league learned the mistake of ripping a team from a Blue collar city like Cleveland.. a small City with passionate fans Journalists and the like will always speculate.. but there are multiple teams that would relocate before the bills We are an AFL original. And our fans are recognized as some of the most passionate in the game All of that would be destroyed if the bills were moved.. and I don't think that's something the NFL, Terry pegula or Roger wants We also give the NFL some of its Best ratings in United States Something the league also probably doesn't want to lose.. because if we leave those ratings are gone Edited December 31, 2021 by Buffalo716 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLFan Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 The Governor has said she wants the deal in place prior to the conclusion of the upcoming state budget negotiations. Both sides have recently indicated that good progress is being made. End of year was never a real deadline, just a goal. Nothing to see here, just Timmy being Timmy, trying to drum up controversy. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boater Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 The over confidence of some Bills fans on this thread.. that the Bills would never leave, is a stench. Kind of like the stench that the Pacific Fleet had that the ***** would never attack Pearl Harbor. Or the Rams would never leave St Louis. Or the Raiders would never leave Oakland. Or the Chargers would never leave San Diego. There's huge bucks involved in the choices here. Don't think for a moment that Pegs would not move toward the top returning offer if Erie County and NYS try to play hardball. If EC and NYS screw this up, they deserve the dire consequences, but we don't. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
