New Stadium Talk as of owner’s meetings
Kirby Jackson replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My thoughts on this are pretty simple. Wherever it goes next is going to be a “business decision” not a fan experience decision. What is best for the government and best for the Pegulas are not necessarily the same. It will almost certainly be a public/private deal. The expression “split the difference” is a little ironic IMO. That’s how I see this thing playing out. The Pegulas want to maximize revenue and the government wants to minimize cost. My guess is 65,000 seats, downtown (somewhere), with a price tag in the $1B range. It will be split almost evenly between the state and the Bills. -
I suppose that this can be combined with other thread but feels like it should be broken out. Now that we are in peak offseason this is a good time to discuss the comments of Terry and Kim. Above are some tweets from @john wawrow that he took away from yesterday. It sure sounded that way to me as well. What were your thoughts???

Antonio Brown on Instagram trashing Bills!

If you REALLY want to stir the pot, Tre White liked the photo.... -
I’m not trying to call people out but I kind of am. Devin White is arguably the most “process” player in this draft. He is the exact opposite of a diva. It is so weird to me to see such strong statements on a guy from people that literally know nothing about the guy. People read one article and formed an opinion that is 100% wrong. If you guys don’t want the guy because he’s a linebacker, fine. If you don’t like his skill set, you are wrong but fine. If you don’t like the character, you are an idiot.

Yeah these UB kids are a little different than what we usually produce. These kids are professional basketball players. They can go to Europe and make a couple million without expenses.

He has a career at this point. He’s like 5 years in or something.

The ironic thing is that he is a TOTAL Buffalo guy. Everyone read one article and are calling him a diva. He’s about as blue-collar as they come. He’s the exact opposite of what some of you are saying. I’d love to hear from @CajunBillsBacker on this. Obviously, I follow LSU pretty closet being here but not like him. He’s a season ticket holder and a diehard.

I don’t take it like that at all. I take it as “in 5 years I’m going to be one of the best players in football at this position.” I agree with him 100% on this. This time last year, I banged the table for Darius Leonard. He was a modern LB because of his insane athleticism. White is the exact same way. I would MUCH rather have a guy that thinks he’s going to be great than a guy that hopes to be average. White is a great guy, beloved at LSU and a future star. I have no issues with anything he said. Whoever gets him is going to be thrilled.
