I travel to Denver frequently for work and have a buddy from high school who lives in Denver, so we're definitely down if there's a group outing. When the Bills played in Charlotte in 2009, we went with a huge group from the Raleigh-Durham Bills Backers and it was a lot of freaking fun.

If it was preexisting, I can't believe it's not something that would've showed up in the Saints' medical due diligence.

I'm for it, if it means the Ralph will finally be rendered in 3D on Google Maps.

Allow me to join the chorus of Rochesterians very concerned about the name "Congel" being anywhere within a country mile of the Bills.

Maybe it's Sammy's first big time sponsorship.

Another article quoted a family statement saying his widow and sons will continue to run the franchise.

The Pennsylvania border.

Agreed. Russ' quote was something to that effect. It's a results-oriented business. Their jobs are always on the line, stable ownership or not.

What are you doing on the Internet? Shouldn't you be working on that coloring book?

Teenagers are so precious when they start getting into politics.

Yeah, the NFL itself has some sort of status as a confederation of individual businesses (the 32 franchises) and in and of itself is a non-profit, though not in the traditional churches-schools-museums 501c(3) vein. It's actually a 501c(6). Forbes had a good write up on it. Definition of a 501c6: Business leagues, chambers of commerce, real-estate boards, boards of trade, or professional football leagues (whether or not administering a pension fund for football players), not organized for profit and no part of the net earnings of which inures to the benefit of any private shareholder or individual. http://www.forbes.com/sites/peterjreilly/2013/06/01/nfl-as-tax-exempt-less-than-meets-the-eye/

I was there!

Not super close. But close enough.

You and me both, homeslice! Ooh, even better. Right next to Wegmans. They could use the Dome for pregame concerts. I'd love to see Primus there again like I did in '98.

They might could fit a field on that land the Senecas bought in Henrietta. That's close to a super walmart, easy access for tailgate supplies.

Me three! Git 'er done, Mary/Russ/Tom/Trump/Terry/Bongiovanni!

The NFL in North Carolina is just a two-month minor distraction while everyone waits for college basketball to get started.

Par for the course for the great state of Florida.

Yeah, I've got family from Canada and so I'm actually a Jays and Leafs fan [ducks to avoid the shoes and full beers thrown at my head]. I frequent a lot of Jays blogs and forums in particular, and the topic of the Bills being bought by a Toronto group comes up from time to time. The vibe I get from up there, feelings about the Sabres aside, is that everyone in Southern Ontario knows how much the Bills mean to Western New York and no self-respecting football fans up there want to see the Bills uprooted and moved across the border and up the QEW. If anything, they want their own NFL expansion franchise and see the great Buffalo/Toronto rivalry extended to football as well. Plus there's the simple logistical issue that there's currently no long-term stadium fit for an NFL team in Toronto. The SkyDome is switching to grass in a few years, at the Jays behest, and so the Argos are going to play at a University of Toronto stadium.

Agree completely. I was at the Bills game in Atlanta in 2009. With the translucent roof on the Georgia Dome, it was like watching a game in a shopping mall under fluorescent lights. Absolutely terrible atmosphere. However, I say again, it matters not to me what the venue is like. If it keeps the Bills here long-term, I am for it.

I'm a bass player and I've never liked JBJ's music, HOWEVER, "Livin' on a Prayer" has always topped my list of "Lame Songs with Awesome Bass Lines." That's more a credit to JBJ's former bass player Alex Jon Such than it is to the haircut himself.

Well, he's 72, not exactly on the doorstep of 80. Plenty of time to left to secure the Bills' future.

You win. And, you can't really dust for vomit.

It's like a pastel black.
