This may have been lost, but when former Sabres' owner, B. Thomas Golisano, was at NU yesterday to officiate at the opening of a new science center he helped fund, he made mention of his desire to possibly own the Bills in the future:
"Golisano knows he casts a large shadow around here.
He knows, too, that when he says things, people will pay attention – including a remark on Wednesday that he might someday take a look at owning the Buffalo Bills, if the team were ever in danger of leaving town."

It's nice to have a billionaire as an extra layer of insurance should Ralph not have a proper plan in place to keep the team here after he passes on.
