keepthefaith Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Ralph's ranting and raving about WNY being poor is just posturing for more taxpayer dollars...Hey Ralph, thank you for the Bills, I love them...but just like any product or service, if yours is continually bad and I mean from Ownership / managament on down your business suffers. Be it automobiles (see GM & FORD's woes v. growing rivals TOYOTA & NISSAN) retailers (see KMART v WALMART & TARGET) DUNKIN DONUTS v STRARBUCKS & TIM HORTON the list goes on and on of businesses that once did well and then lost marketshare due to lackluster performances & products....why should the rule not be valid for your business the BUFFALO BILS ?? **NOTE**not blaming autoworkers for GM suffering..blaming management of their company. Simply put, your product isnt very good and has not been where others (SABRES) are very good..or getting better one season and improving the next. While I feel privledged to have an NFL franchise in my town I remind you Mr. Wilson..it is not a license to step on my face while I kiss your feet..and a few wins in yet another hapless season does not fix six going on seven years of a product that is subpar....In many companies todays CEOs are ousted for such poor performance...good thing your the king. Give me a great product..or one that is impoved for next yesr and I will renew my seasons tix...hell I will anyway but beware Ralph...the time where you can lipstick up your pig have tantrums when wny's call it a pig with lipstick & refuse to spend their money on it are gone. 868398[/snapback] This is just an ugly rant that doesn't even address the issues being discussed here. It particularly doesn't address the issues that Ralph has raised about the revenue imbalance in the new CBA. Real issues that could threaten the Bills staying in Buffalo particulary since an ownership change could occur soon. Really it sounds like you're just not happy with the team's performance over the past several years. The rest of the post is just crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 There'll be a group ready to buy the bills when they're put on the market. The team will stay here, even after Ralph decided to sell, or his estate sells. I know this for a fact 868389[/snapback] Oh, I hope you're right.

I doubt you can follow finalcial analysis..buy low sell high is probably advanced for you...its all about $$$$$'s bonehead...your so dumb you buy what the guy is telling you without question.. As for the real issues...its all posturing so WNY does not hate on Ralphie when he tries to move the team...there is more money available..TIX prices, naming rights, $'s from the county and the possibility of a new stadium..but for some reason Ralph turns them down or says they aren't enough so he prefers to just sit on his hands and do nothing????? Come on dummy...use your brains for once...read between the lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prognastic Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Lets look at the facts; Fact; Third straight home game not sold out including one against the hated Dolphins. Fact; Seats at the Ralph are not that expensive. Lower end seats for 40 bucks or so? Fact; The Bills will say sayonara to WNY and should since the locals take them for granted and simply dont deserve an NFL franchise. Can you say Los Angeles or Anaheim Bills? Then again, like the Ravens & Titans, they'll probably choose a new team name. Who then will you root for? Steelers? Browns? Lions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan in San Diego Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I read somewhere that the NFL wants all teams in a new stadium within ten years. I give the Bills ten years before they move somewhere. It wont be LA Goodell has already siad he doesn't want one in LA. If not Toroanto then some warm weather climate that loves football. The south somewhere. Alabama ? Missisipi ? Where do you guess ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
