PromoTheRobot Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 The Golden Boys better get their thinking caps on at One Bills Drive and start thinking of ways to raise that non-shared revenue. Sorry, Ralph. RWS Stadium has to go. Jet Blue Field? PayChex Park? Geico Stadium? Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl? Maybe my earlier post on courting Toronto wasn't so far-fetched?

MadBuffaloDisease Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Yeah, it's not like Ralph EVER sold the naming rights before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finknottle Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I just don't think sponsors will cough up competative amounts in order for the Bills, in Buffalo, to keep up with the Jones'. IMO this just increases the pressure on the next owner will move the team - and that may be why RW was one of two to vote 'no.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stl Bills Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 IMO this just increases the pressure on the next owner will move the team - and that may be why RW was one of two to vote 'no.' He voted no because he didn't understand the proposal and didn't like that they were forced to make a vote in 45 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Well sorry to all you nostalgists, but changing the name of the team would be a good start (to what, I don't know). What the hell are the "Bills"? Why not name the team after something that either better represents the community (i.e., the Wings, the Blizzard, the Storm, etc.), or something a bit sexier and more marketable?

Why not name the team after something that either better represents the community (i.e., the Wings, the Blizzard, the Storm, etc.), or something a bit sexier and more marketable? 621820[/snapback] I'm sorry, I try to be respectful when I post but this is the dumbest proposal I've seen yet. How is changing the name going to sell even one extra ticket or add to the bottom line? It's not a matter of being a "nostalgist", it's about being a fan. You want to turn your back on almost 50 years of tradition with the present Bills and even a few years in AAFL with the same name in the 1940s because you don't know who Buffalo Bill Cody is?
