TheMadCap Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 So where are they supposed to build this thing? Are they building it on the site of the old Texas Stadium? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 As if the Bills didn't look low-rent enough already. Holy mother of God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy mother of God. 864234[/snapback] Maybe the Bills should look ito building a new stadium with money from the fund the NFL has. Oh wait, its already supposedly dried up with the $300 mil deal for the Jets/Giants new stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have used that money, a loan from the NFL and a bond issue to build a new 60000-seat stadium on some of that empty land in Lackawanna. Right on the waterfront, with one end zone open to the Buffalo skyline. The weather advantage would have been ginormous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ofiba Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 WOW, they should just add wings and a propeller and have the entire stadium fly to wherever Dallas is playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Brady Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 And Jerry will be crapping on solid gold toilet seats, with a personal assistant standing at the ready, with charmin in hand to take care of that nasty job of wiping his bum bum............!

rockpile Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Is that empty land the place once known as Bethlehem Steel? Start excavating the shore there and you will have another Love Canal! God only knows what is buried under the slag. Not saying they shouldn't have built a new 60K capacity stadium somewhere in Buffalo, though! Make it too fancy and no one will be able to afford tickets! I said it back when they refurbished the ralph.

Phil Indablanc Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 "Opening the windows will make it twenty degrees cooler in the stadium than it is outside without air conditioning" I'm no friggin physicist but that is a direct violation of the laws of thermodynamics. On top of that have you ever been to central Texas in August? I'm thinking of going next year. Either there or the sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
