LabattBlue Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 The renderings(keep in mind that they are just that) have probably been done for weeks now. For some odd reason, it seems like they don't want to release them until a deal is signed on the dotted line. Not sure why, but that is what appears to be happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoBills Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Maybe the delay is about the stadium sponsor's name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't have near as much the population/human activity/outside interest going on to support a facility like this. The Pegulas are being smart about this even if you don't realise it.

Weird that someone so good at math can't put 2 and 2 together. That is your opinion the Pegulas are being smart about it. Which is fine we can agree to disagree. As a Buffalo Bills fan I don’t think the Western New York community is protected if the Bills moved away in 30 years. If the Bills ever left that Orchard Park location the new stadium in 30 years the new Bills stadium is a White Elephant in the middle of a snow belt compared to my Buffalo Bisons Sahlen’s Field and UB Bulls UB Stadium and UB Alumni Arena that are all paid off still what I call Green Elephants they produce money for the community. That is why some Bills fans don’t like this deal we are being ripped off for what we are getting $1.4 billion dollars for a open air Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers style stadium is ridiculous it should be half the price $800 to $900 million dollars tops in my opinion.

KDIGGZ Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 (edited) Does anybody really think the Pegulas, who own the Buffalo Sabres and half of the waterfront, would pack up the Buffalo Bills (best team and best fanbase in the NFL) for Austin, TX if the taxpayers don't pay for the majority of the stadium? That is just absurd. The Pegulas net worth went up as much as the stadium would cost just this past year. Now bring on the renderings!

I don’t think people are injecting ‘politics’ into the discussion. At least not in the traditional sense anyway. I think people are beginning to wonder if there’s a problem that has nothing to do with design renderings, or football…and are sincerely hoping not.

This was a totally unexpected nugget of knowledge, I haven't been following the thread. I 100% trust the person who told it to me, and have known of her source and its position for a while, to know that he could in theory have access to this info, but in theory, he could be mistaken too.

mrags Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 15 hours ago, What a Tuel said: I disagree. I think it looks modern and fantastic. I don't see how political changes could impact it. Isn't it passed already in the NYS budget? Wouldn't the Bills have cause for damages if suddenly NY pulls out of an agreement because "political changes"? Have you not learned anything from 2020? Anything can be changed or pushed in the interest of emergency services, etc. a new governor gets in and declares the state in an emergency situation for some reason or another and boom, funding cancelled. Anything is possible when it comes to government getting something they want. Especially if there’s someone new I’m office and doesn’t owe people promises for campaign funds.
