The tweet litterally tells you its not... litterally is even being used correctly!

So people can just start yelling at him again?

Lol!!! I might have a free million dollars to give away!! Stay tuned....

What a novel question. Surely you didnt come up w such an original thought on your own! This was the crap that made people stay away from bbmb. Its a straight up shame its become the majority at this formally magestic message board

Oy

We agree on something!

G8 1!

My 2nd grade teacher wld have a ball w this title

This is far enough away from Buffalo where they can charge. He doesnt set the fee per se in regard to how much THEY charge for his signature. The fee for his appearance is xxx with xxx amount of signatures guaranteed. I have no idea how this particular company worked out the public portion ie if they split it or since he gets xxx the company set that price to help them recoup what is already spent. Again, its why now days in buffalo his signings accompany something like open a checking acount, get a auto. Buy a book, get an auto, take a tour of the gym.. you get the idea. Its a way not to have to charge buffalo folks who have been getting his autographs cheap or free forever not to become aleinated. The company pays the appearance fee essentially and takes the hit of the built in auto fees for the attraction. In situations like this, before he even gets to the public portion the company will have a room where they have say xx full size and mini Bills helmets (same w miami and houston) as well as stacks of cut white numbers ( to be signed and sewn on jerseys later)and 8x10s etc. They sell this over time to pay and make $$ from the signing. The public portion is almost an afterthought. Also, personally, i collect Kelly gamers. I dont always get them signed but a couple of the rare ones such as his 94 throwback, home Gamblers, or built in handwarmer (favorites from my collection for example) Kelly in particular has always been gracious enough to sign with no charge simply it seems bc he can tell Im a fan. Not all signings work like this. Im not a big auto guy and only collect game worn jerseys - but working in the industry ive seen how things work via my employer. Also of note, the industry has changed. Now athletes have different signatures. One for the ball park or public, a nicer one for paying customers. Bruce is another who doesnt need to sign and whos signature charge has crept up over the $100 mark. For a HOF qb who doesnt always sign, kellys prices are actually modest. Check out Marino, Montana, or Young for example.

Id say thanks capt obvious, but i dont want to sound sarcastic;)

Umm? You realize you arent supposed to use your real pic in your avatar, right Chad? Such a Chad Kelly move! Classic Chad

Epitome of click bait...but here i am

Thats slightly higher than what he gets around the country - but they need to make a buck. There is likley a guarantee which will stick this company with excess stuff to sell over the course of years to make their $$ back. The public is prob just extra. I doubt he actually needs the $$ from signing, but thats the going rate for a hof qb that isnt at every show. Im sure his health doesnt play a direct roll, but it is what it is. When he signs around here, its generally along with something and much lower if a charge at all. He seems aware that buffalo has a saturation of his signature as he has signed often and cheap/free for 30 years. Thats why you generally never see these prices locally- fwiw.

DDDDEEERRRRR-RRRAAAAGGGEEENNNSSS!!!

It cant be nearly as long as it took to write

Glad this Bills didnt do this. Too much, but more so this place would just be broken.

Right??? Sadly, it wont happen. The majority like to blow the last game out of proportion one way or the other. I totally get that its a 'what have you done for me lately ' league to an extent BUT, the amount of time, energy, and effort that is put into the senseless arguments after each game is just dumbfounding. Why cant people just either be cautious, or cautiously optimistic until each has had a body of work worthy of evaluation? This 'hes the next Favre' one week and 'the next Carr' the next is EXHAUSTING, not to mention small minded to a degree. I get that fans react as fans are fanatical fanatics BUT.. the proclamations of being able to see the future and knowing the answers are just silly. Add to it that some screaming the loudest havent even watched the game themselves or are just regurgitating something they think someone smart said and it just makes it even worse. In summary, i guess i just wish more people kept a good or bad game to simply that - a game. One game. Once these games add up and are stacked, a body of work will take shape and really, only then will we be able to gauge what the player in question may or may not be. Sure, they are professional QBs but think back to your 1st days on the job. It takes a bit to learn and get in the groove. Ill bet you would be rather upset if people wanted to can you before you fully learned what the job entailed and how to do it...

Lol... welcome to the interwebs. Its kind of a shame it needs to be pointed out to you that sometimes people use 'fantastic grammar' to elaborate on points. Since you seem to know grammar well, but come up short on football knowledge- maybe you shld put those killer skills to use and go correct all the folks talking about how they 'seen' a terrible game yesterday. That shld keep ya busy for a bit;) Btw, nice goose egg for rep points? What happened there?

Finally!! After 272 days laying awake at night wondering will he or wont he, i can FINALLY go to sleep knowing it was FINALLY owned up to!!

Why dont they?

Right? Low talent roster and a development year and they act suprised this is the outcome. Keep calling for people to get fired. Keep threatening to stop being a fan. Itll be nice to not have to read all the drivel until progress is made next year.

Im not blind, i just understand context....yikes

Maybe you should take a break from posting...

They dont have a big enough eye roll emoji for this thread...
