Orlando Buffalo

I live in Orlando and I personally know literally dozens of people who are planning to head up. I would be surprised if the stadium is not at least half Bills fans. I assume you are a honest in your reaction based on past games but you are not understanding that the Bills fanbase is insanely loyal and look for any reason to show it.

To argue that the New York income tax is not a disadvantage to Buffalo in at least a small way is being naive. There are a lot of cities that basically pay an additional 5% more than Buffalo. Tiger Woods left Cali for Florida mainly due to tax rates. Lastly NY taxes your income if you are a resident for more than 180 days. Unless there a special exemption for athletes Richie incognito pays the 8% on his whole income to the state of NY and an additional amount to Mass. for his game there and all of the other states that tax athletes this way. I have personally had to deal with the 180 rule and know several people who deal with same thing.

Everyone who thinks that CK is not employed ONLY because if his politics is being intentionally ignorant. He could be a much worse person but if he was one of the 15 best qbs on the planet he would signed. He is not in the top 25 qbs-he is probably between 25 and 40- but you do not bring in a headache to be backup. Also I have read in multiple places that he was asking for 12+ million a year which he is not getting. Michael Vick was hated by PETA and most animal lovers but Philly thought he could be top 5 QB and signed him in an instant. The NFL owners do not bring in headaches for backups-whether it be Tebow, CK, Manziel.

does anyone know if you get the college kid program does the "local programming" stem from the college location or the location of stream? My cousin who is UB student is in Disney program here in Orlando and he will order if we can watch. I though do not want to order and then find out it is blacked out due to his being UB student.

I would love him on the team just for his work ethic. He grew up in a very poor part of Florida and has worked very hard of his own volition. I think many of players work hard based on encouragement from other and self motivation seems to be a big determinant in which players excel and which fail.

This thread cracks me up in many ways. I teach math to high school students and many of the students who do not understand the math in word problems say the math is wrong. While the data set is limited in what it means it is accurate and it a mathematical fact that using the previous year record to determine strength of schedule does not produce usable results.

I became a lifetime Bills fan that day. My dad got tickets for me and my two brothers since it was blacked out. We sat in upper deck about 20 yard line and a few rows up. We might have considered leaving after Bubba McDowell had his pick 6 except we saw everyone flooding out and any thought of beating traffic was destroyed. I have been to literally hundreds of sporting events live and this is the only one I can remember is so much detail many years later. I will watch it again but it does not have the same feel as being there.

Public funding is coming. The last deal with the state had legalized bribes built in. http://www.investigativepost.org/2013/03/22/taxpayers-foot-buffalo-bills-luxury-box-seats-for-politicians/ My real hope is Buffalo and State just give him land and allow Pegula to do his thing but since politicians want there slice of pie I doubt it. Here in Orlando we just built a new soccer stadium whose price tag dropped about 25% the day the state backed out of financing it. The owner still built it and it is likely better than one that would have cost more with state involvement.

I disagree on this being such a big deal. I would be much more interested in what percent of guys are still in league. If we decide not to make a CB the highest paid ever does that make him a bad pick? we received good value for Gilmore. Now Mike Williams(the OT) was a terrible pick we received no value. Robert Woods is gone but I think for what he cost we did well. I think this is kind of info is much more important.

CK looked good last year and I am surprised they let him go. This off field thing must be worse than I thought. I had sloted him in as at least a backup since his cost is low for a quality backup.

only two points I disagree with : With the advent of headset radios, plays can be called in from the sideline (except in NE), keeping the quarterback from having to make the calls along with everything he has to do.the radio into the qbs helmet will still require communication to other players on field. Not all players have radios so tyrod would have to signal to others and that would cause other issues. We can quickly sub in the 40 yards between the 30 yard marks, especially at the wideout position. This may prompt the opposition to try, which will either pull them out of position or draw a too many men foul.Chip Kelly had to wait for NFL refs to prep ball. also if you change out guys officials should wait for defense to reset personnel based on rules.

I am not surprised he failed out based on the situation. When drafted he was suppose to sit a year behind a competent qb(Kolb) and develop how to be a pro-not a college qb. he was thrown into the wolves and told do not lose the game which is an awful way to learn. Marrone then benched him for Orton who is not a good teammate by all accounts I read. He then tries to relearn how to be a qb in year three. He is not good right now but I wish him the best and hope that Oakland can make him good since he seems like a decent man. All that being said DW knows the NFL is QB driven and he never hit there. he improved about every other position but not the most important.

CK comes along with a bunch of headaches that you do not take on for the backup. Tim Tebow was ran out of football for the same reason-talent level is not equal to headache. If you are going to bring that kind of outside pressure you had best be top 15 in your position. CK will be signed when he accepts minimum money at least initially since no team will bring him in when they might have to jettison after one year.

I live about 2 miles from WP. there is nothing good within 2 miles but Hagans Orielly is good and Crooked Can is about 6 miles straight north in Downtown Winter Garden. If you go to WG there are several nice good restaurants there depending on what you are looking for.

Just because I am blown away by that place being a million I will add my two cents about how absurd the taxes are. My house is about $300,000 in Windermere, FL (which is nice) and I pay right about $2000 a year in taxes with great schools and access to about anything I want. I pay the state and local governments literally $10K less per year based on income and taxes.

I do not think his comment is far fetched but he missed on large condition-the Bills get healthy. If we are healthy I think we have a really good shot of making the run but if our defense does not get healthier I think we are not likely to beat the Bengals or Denver.

This is the only player i have written the Bills about and stated that if they signed him i would not be a fan anymore. I can root for smucks and jerks but this guy crosses the line into dangerous and is not worth rooting for.

Sammy should not respond because anyone who calls him soft or anything else is a moron. To play a single game in the NFL you best be ready to fight through pain. Sammy responding will solve nothing.

Honestly I can handle this missed call much more than all the made calls which suck. A missed call is being human and unable to see everything, to call one that is not there- such as Robey- is arrogance. Basically these officials think they have a duty/right to call what might have happened, not what they saw which is why the NFL has become almost unwatchable for me.

My fear with EJ is he will pull a drew brees/Rich Gannon on us. Brees was benched for a 40+ year old Flutie and ran out of San Diego got offered one starting postion with a good coach on a crap team in NO and now has a ring. EJ has a ton of talent but looks lost too often and was clearly the worst Bill today but I always have hope for guys who work hard.

Doug Whaley has missed on exactly one real good QB that he could have had(Russell Wilson) that completely changed his mechanics from college to the pros. Besides that he has improved every unit we have, some of them by a large margin. All that being said the Bills need to step up and start showing the world that the talent will translate into wins or Whaley might be gone at the end of the year.

The argument about the officials not being important to this game is absurd. without that call the Bills probably win. NFL teams all the time wins games they no right to win. The Bills of early 90's won amny games where we were outplayed for long stretches. Last Years Super Bowl was lost by the better team for most of the game. EJ played like crap but the rest of our team almost pulled it out.

This is simply reaction from my family who is large and insane: overrated: harvin- he is at best our three not a savior underated: EJ and McKelvin-EJ was a project from the get go and has looked good in this preseason and Mckelvin is great in the proper defense but has obvious limitations. Having a coach who tried to cover them up with AW helped a lot. My family thinks EJ and McKelvin should be sent to the scrap heap and forgotten along with Trentative, Mike Williams, and the LB from Penn State who i am blanking on now.

Mr. Weo I will type it in simpler words for you. The judge can ask any questions he wants and can push the two sides in any direction he finds useful but at the end of the trial he is severely limited in what he can truly rule on. The NFL is a private organization disciplining one of its employees for actions it found inapporiate. So the judge can rule this punishment is outside the realm of what is appropriate based on governmental laws but not much else. The points Brady is scoring against the NFL for being heavy handed is making the NFL look bad but have little relevance without it being tied to something grander. This is not a criminal case and therefore does not have same standards.
