  1. Hey genius...there are a few reasons that our ticket prices are lower than most of the rest of the league...and none of them have to do with how the team plays. The local economy can't support ridiculous prices like they have in other areas..there was also something else I saw a while back about how we had to stay below the average in ticket prices to qualify for some enhanced revenue sharing of some sort. And no, increased ticket prices would't eliminate the need for that enhanced revenue sharing...ticket money is a very minimal source of income for NFL teams...the big money comes from premium seating like club seats and luxury boxes that people who drive around in BMW's can afford
  2. yep http://www.stadiumwall.com/index.php?act=f...amp;pid=1344256
  3. Actually, it was reported that Marshawn DIDN'T buy the house just a few days after the Buffalo News released that bad info that he did...this is OLD news to say the least
  4. which one's that? That the guy who used to wear 79 all the time...up in the front of the section? Or are you thinking about someone else?
  5. They brought him in to tryout this weekend http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1...ad-c34363fd6397
  6. rest assured that if the Bills ever move, they'll suffer the same way the Braves have suffered ever since they left Buffalo and became the Clippers.
  7. you got a link for that rule change? Only LBs and Cs have been allowed to wear any number from 50-59 since 1973..every link I've seen to the numbering rules says so
  8. Polian you could almost make an argument for...except that Ralph did what any boss would do..dump the person who was starting fights with other people in the organization. Butler had no intention of returning after his contract was up...he wouldn't even negotiate a new contract no matter how many times Ralph approached him about it...there was even a little bit of speculation of tampering at the time Smith wasn't run out of town to any remote stretch of the imagination...when Butler was fired, AJ followed him like a faithful dog and refused to interview for the GM job here when Ralph offered him an interview
  9. 2 number 97's as well...lol Plus they have Omon listed at 25 still http://blogs.buffalobills.com/2009/04/22/r...ber-with-bills/
  10. Only LBs and Cs are supposed to wear numbers from 50-59...Ritcher was drafted as a C coming out of college...I have a feeling Maybin will switch before Opening Day http://football.about.com/cs/football101/a...umbersystem.htm
  11. He still has 2 other daughters..I know 1 of them has worked with the team in the past...Christy Wilson Hoffman...not sure if she's still there or not
  12. We added new suites a decade ago and were looking to add some more recently. Thing is, are the suites selling out? I thought they weren't as it is
  13. definitely a great stadium, IMO. I was there in 2004...I was able to look out over Puget Sound from my seats...outstanding view refurbished...won't need replaced for a LONG time
  14. Doesn't change the facts...when the deal with Rich Products ran out, the stadium was called Buffalo Bills Stadium. To say that it was Ralph's idea to name it after him is ignorant at best. The Governor and the Erie County Commissioner proposed the idea...Ralph merely went along with it
  15. I think it's ridiculous that people still make false accusations. Naming the stadium after Ralph was not his idea...it was the idea of the NYS Governor and the Erie County Commissioner at the time. It actually was called Buffalo Bills Stadium for a while after the deal with Rich Products expired And it's also ridiculous to insult our stadium by calling it the worst when it's far from it. The only thing I'd change at all about it is upgrade the bathrooms
  16. How much of a glut do they have at WR, though? We have Evans-TO-Reed-Parrish-Johnson-Hardy-Jenkins who all have something to bring to the team. With that FS we drafted in the 2nd, he could take over at PR...make Roscoe expendable
  17. supposedly Orakpo takes plays off....if that's true, I'm glad we didn't get him
  18. He would've...but he and his friends are still enjoying the fact he got drafted
  19. B- or C+ from me..because of those 2 final picks...would've preferred to get another TE...Gronkowski...and a big developmental DT
  20. According to WGR, the Bills were talking up Bell bigtime all day yesterday Walker-Wood-Hangartner-Butler-Bell Chambers-Levitre-Wood-McKinney-Chambers would be the depth chart I'm seeing
  21. at the half? They're not announcing it at a game...they're announcing the 50th team at the Draft party on Saturday
  22. General admission isn't a location
  23. not a conditional pick...it's a 6th rounder
  24. definitely...he and McGahee are the only 2 ex-Bills still in the league that I despise
  25. According to sources inside the locker room, they were getting tired of him trying to hold the team hostage. That's according to Marcellus Wiley on ESPN this afternoon
