Buffalo Super Fan

We have already think about the Buffalo Sabres fan has embarrassed themselves long ago with tanks and doing things on the cheap. Look at Key Bank Center on week night games is embarrassing. What is the point if this market simple can’t afford the games anymore because of the prices of NHL hockey today? If playing in Hamilton or Toronto created more revenue so the Buffalo Sabres could be sold to a owner that makes the necessary commitments to win Stanley Cups for Buffalo would you sacrifice 5 games to Hamilton? Stanley Cup champions Buffalo Sabres? Think about it the fans are selling their seats anyway because they can’t afford the whole year of going to Buffalo Sabres games now? What would your solution be to create revenue so that the Buffalo Sabres aren’t a poverty franchise? And are sellable to a ownership group committed to winning. Again I want to win championships this home town discount crap has gone on long enough in my opinion. Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo

The Buffalo Bisons have been postponed again because of unplayable conditions for the third time. They didn’t have a back up tarp that shouldn’t have happened. But with baseball season starting earlier and going more into September scheduling with the IL we can’t have this many games missed. It screws up the Bisons season the more doubleheaders the Bisons add. Because it puts a strain on the Bisons bullpen and pitching staff speaking from a Bisons baseball fan perspective. I think if this is the new way of IL scheduling is permanent early starts the Toronto Blue Jays and the Buffalo Bisons need to think about starting the IL season in the spring training Florida complexes showing the Bisons games to us Bisons fans on MLB television streaming and as a Buffalo Bisons fan I am good in the future with that. Same deal with the Buffalo Bills in December in Detroit and the Buffalo Sabres games in Hamilton or Toronto if going to Buffalo Sabres games during the week nights is too heavy of a financial lift for Buffalo and Western New York. BSF 2023 as a Buffalo sports fan going forward zero tolerance for cheapness, home town discounts, tanking in Buffalo sports. If that is the only way there should be consequences for that loss of Buffalo home games. I tired of the cheapness and weirdness of Western New York cheapness in Buffalo sports you don’t win championships that way. Buffalo teams exist yes but you don’t win championships by being cheap in sports move some of the games if it is too much of a heavy lift to buy a back up tarp how cheap can you get Bob Rich you cheap bum in my opinion. Go Bisons! Let’s Go Buffalo

Who is benefiting? Let’s tell it like it is. You support Terry Pegula fine but he is benefiting big time with limited risks. We the taxpayers are taking most of the risks to further enrich a billionaire in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

That is a really good question and honestly living here for 55 years I don’t know? The state does sports projects big and small. Honestly I lived here too long. I don’t trust the process in decades after the 1970’s it has been a huge decline to what we are now a bottom 50’s market it’s really sad if you saw where we were to where we are today. Buffalo and Western New York isn’t happening these cities that were Cowtowns have past Buffalo by years ago and we continue to be stuck on poor decisions making when it comes to large development projects. That the state and the Buffalo Bills were leading the decision making and we were there to bring the coffee and donuts is sad. Buffalo is what Chuck Dickerson use to say about Chuck Lester that was with the Bills as a coach for years he call him the name “Luckchester” someone was needed to bring the other Bills coaches coffee and donuts. Basically what Chuck Dickerson was saying is Chuck Lester wasn’t making any decisions for the Bills in a crude way. Buffalo is “LuckBuffalo” we aren’t making any important decisions which is like wow we don’t make decisions on our own area big projects what could go wrong? New York State regardless of political parties has way too much power and say from 8 hours away which is one of the many reasons why Buffalo isn’t happening compared to other cowtowns around the country today it’s sad it is what it is good or bad it’s my home in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

But that doesn’t put money into the Buffalo Bills or the other NFL teams pockets. I think tailgating is going to be redefined by the Buffalo Bills to inside the Bills Jerry Jones world stadium gates with the Bills, NFL getting fans money. Also don’t discount the 6% surcharge the Bills have the right to use to there choosing at some point on sales of tickets, food and merchandise it was in the Watson Buffalo News Article. If Bills fans can’t see the way this is going I don’t know really anything more I can say. See I guess my point is why cut corners on the new Bills stadium because the Bills fan is paying going NFL rate either way. The Ralph Wilson Highmark Stadium, parking lots tailgate Buffalo Bills are over after 2025 enjoy the next couple of years. I think some Bills fans thought mistaking so time will tell great Orchard Park location, across the street nothing will change to the Bills tailgating experience is a huge assumption in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

Every year is a different year. For the Buffalo Sabres fans saying it’s ok not making the playoffs. It’s never ok not making the playoffs. Boston Bruins fan doesn’t talk that way. Even as bad as the New England Patriots were notice you didn’t see Boston fans say it is ok the Buffalo Bills keep winning the AFC East it’s for the best the Patriots. The Patriots weren’t winning anyway maybe next year. It’s good to lose for drafting some Sabres fans would like to have a talk with Sabres fans like that. It’s 12 years and counting same old Sabres. Losing to win is a complete failure and waste of time and money. Don’t forget all the Sabres fans wasted money because the Sabres hockey players weren’t mentally tough enough to step and stand up against the Boston Bruins. The Boston Bruins are the Buffalo Sabres Stanley Cup which is sad. I want the Bruins first round because as a Sabres fan the Sabres need to stand up for themselves against the Boston Bruins. Again Buffalo Sabres fans saying next season. What happens hypothetically if Tage Thompson gets injured and is out next season? Oh Rasmus Dahlin gets injured? Or the Sabres have 5 goalies get hurt? You don’t plan for that. That is why maybe next year is a myth. Each year is a opportunity to seize the opportunity. Unfortunately the Buffalo Sabres gave away too many games early in the season. I bet the Buffalo Sabres players wish they had those games back now. At the end of the day if the Buffalo Sabres don’t make the playoffs this season it’s another failed year of many too many in my opinion. Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo

You realize Ralph Wilson was a AFL champion back to back in years 4 and 5 from a start up Buffalo Bills franchise in 1964 and 1965. Also Ralph Wilson protected the Buffalo community more he had a little bit more of a heart compared to Terry Pegula. When has Terry Pegula had a press conference about the new Buffalo Bills stadium? If he believes the new Bills stadium is so wonderful why is he hiding behind lawyers? Look at the Kansas City Royals stadium that opened in 1973. The Kansas City Royals owner was talking about the new Royals stadium with pride it’s on YouTube 1972 and 1973 Kansas City Royals highlight film. Where is Terry Pegula not his lawyers and public relations where is Terry Pegula? He needs to own this new Bills stadium be accountable put your name on it pose for pictures answer the questions directly from the Buffalo media why this or why that in his own words. Not the Buffalo Bills public relations people Terry Pegula that is least he can do for $850 million dollars. Ralph Wilson was a man remember that he didn’t hide from anyone. Same with Seymour and Norty Knox they were men that spoke for themselves not hiding behind a team of lawyers and public relations people. Love him or hate him Ralph Wilson was a man who spoke for himself. Ralph Wilson at least gave interviews with the local media explaining the Bills ownership side. Terry Pegula never faces the music or ever takes any accountability for anything with the Buffalo Bills or the Buffalo Sabres which is sad in my opinion. Go Bills! Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo

The Buffalo Bills would have been better off renovating the upper deck removing a lot the seats to create the artificial Bills ticket demand with less seats. Highmark Stadium dome it, technology it and building around Highmark Stadium like the Green Bay Packers would have been better money spent because then Bills fans get the dome Highmark Stadium should have had 50 years ago with things built around the stadium so it doesn’t look so E-I-E-I-O. Keep the turf but switch back to the red end zones and the Bills helmet at the 50 yard line but staying at Highmark Stadium would have been a better option choice than this because we are paying mostly for the high steel cost and high labor costs today. Your still spending the same money but getting more with a renovation. The Buffalo fan with a renovation of Highmark Stadium would then have the money for a dome and the stuff built around Highmark Stadium that Bills fans aren’t getting with this new Bills stadium just a modern stadium structure of the same as Highmark Stadium. I think that is why a lot of the disappointment among Buffalo fans we aren’t getting Green Bay Packers Land. Buffalo fans are getting a cheaper vision of Dallas Cowboys Jerry Jones world which sounds awful actually in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

The Buffalo Bills are a football team not a soccer team in Europe climate that isn’t a Orchard Park snow belt area. It’s apples and oranges. Green Bay Packers again aren’t in a snow belt area. The Buffalo Bills have had several games canceled because of blizzard snow ok so Buffalo isn’t these cities it’s unique. The New England Patriots aren’t moving games to Detroit. The idea is costly and with no MLS soccer team no reason to spend more money for grass. If grass was a good idea how come Ralph Wilson and the Buffalo Bills never talked about grass field? Maybe because he remembered what a mud pit War Memorial Stadium was? Some Buffalo Bills will say water tablet whatever. Buffalo climate isn’t conducive for grass in December and January. It’s very costly to maintain and a unnecessary headache to deal with. Plus I don’t want Buffalo Bills stadium to be labeled a mud pit dump because of the bad grass from the media and opposing teams. Buffalo War Memorial Stadium the Buffalo Bills were the laughing stock of the NFL in old War Memorial Stadium the field was terrible watch YouTube you can see how bad it gets as the year gets towards December they are painting the lines on dirt it’s pathetic. Just no bad idea in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

That is fine I have been called worse and I don’t care because I am old. Old people like myself don’t care. Oh boy some Buffalo fan said I had a clown post how am I going to pick up the pieces. The nice thing is we will see if I have a clown posts. The Buffalo fans will be the judge when they see the potential problems with grass in Buffalo in December and January games how natural grass is in the new Bills stadium. Again this city isn’t getting a MLS soccer team so I don’t understand the grass part of the new Bills stadium that PSE is insisting on. Grass is very expensive to maintain ask UB Bulls football whose season ends end of November got rid of grass and I never missed it as a fan. The turf today is really good the grass our climate struggles with it. I wonder if the Buffalo Bisons should have grass anymore with the longer IL season into September now. Especially if you are going to have other events I don’t get the grass it’s costly in our climate in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

What? You play sports to win a championship. If the Buffalo Sabres don’t make the playoffs it is another failed year period. Which cost this team money. PSE is losing tons of money on the Buffalo Sabres. Each year this team doesn’t make the NHL playoffs this hockey team is racking up a huge amount of debt. The Buffalo Sabres are unsellable right now and we are stuck with a ownership with one partner in poor health Kim Pegula and even before Kim health problems PSE isn’t really interested in owning the Buffalo Sabres anymore. Keep it up Buffalo Sabres fans with the losing and this team is going to be in Houston or Portland real fast winning Stanley Cups like the Quebec Nordiques move to Denver Colorado Avalanche than they won a Stanley Cup. Not making the playoffs isn’t a good thing for the Buffalo Sabres in anyway. This comment is as ridiculous as tanking for success ridiculous. I want to be banned from this message board please banned me forget the warnings just flat ban me. Buffalo fans comments like this I want to be banned and cancelled wow not making the playoffs is a good thing for the Buffalo Sabres wow. I need to go into a Time Machine and never come back. Because Buffalo fan has become no standards no holding the players accountable ridiculous in my opinion. Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo

I hope everyone’s favorite owner Terry Pegula is reading and watching why the Buffalo Bills shouldn’t have grass in the new Buffalo Bills stadium. Take a look at the Buffalo Bisons owning day postponed today unplayable playing conditions at Sahlen’s Field. Grass doesn’t do well in our rain and wind insanity that the Buffalo Bills are adding a grass field. The cost is expensive and good luck in December and January Bills games. Oh I forgot cost and expense only applies to a dome since the taxpayers are paying for maintenance of grass what is the difference right PSE? “Howard Hughes like” Terry Pegula is a bum. Add Buffalo Bisons owner Bob Rich to the bum list you don’t have a back up tarp but community own Rochester Red Wings that are less profitable do? Today is unacceptable that you are spending all this money to make it major league quality for the minor league Toronto Blue Jays prospects and you don’t have a backup tarp that is a complete joke. Leadership have gone stupid today wanting all this expensive stuff and they cut out something important like a backup tarp. This is one of many examples how are leaders are incompetent today. I have zero respect, sympathy and belief in our elite leaders weather in politics or business there both incompetent failures all the way around today they are all incompetent. If they had a Time Machine like the movie “Austin Powers” BSF would be the first in line they can have all my possessions. And the technology BSF? It would be an adjustment because BSF has gone soft in his old age but I would adapt pretty quickly since I lived that life before. Yes they can keep the technology too because there is just too many incompetent people today. Just not having to see Reggie Witherspoon run my Canisius Golden Griffins basketball team into the ground yearly speaking of incompetent leadership. Would be worth myself getting into the Time Machine to see the Buffalo Memorial Auditorium, $5 Little Three Doubleheader basketball tickets free parking and AUD popcorn please someone in technology invent time travel in my opinion. Go Bills! Go Bisons! Go Griffs! Let’s Go Buffalo

That just isn’t accurate information at all. The only UB Bulls player I saw who is no longer with UB Bulls football is Dylan McDuffie was selling some t-shirts with his UB number back when he was still with UB two schools ago he transferred to Georgia Tech played a little there and now I think he transferred to Charlotte 49ers to finish his college football career but that is it. Dylan McDuffie should have just stayed at UB but I have no idea what went on there. Just speaking as a bias UB Bulls fan he was at the level where he could play which he was doing than transfer portal to the higher level ACC where he didn’t get the carries he got here. Sometimes the grass isn’t always greener on the other side and I think we are seeing that play out with the transfer portal. None of the Bonnies Iron men five experienced the same success away from Mark Schmidt and St Bonaventure Bonnies. St Bonaventure Bonnies basketball men’s and women’s have NIL with jerseys and t-shirts of Bonnies players set up with the Sports Locker out of Olean online that is it. I was able to get a nice Kyle Lofton alternate Addias Bonnies jersey and the starting Iron Men five cartoon t shirts they do good a good job at Sports Locker for Bonnies merchandise online and the Bonnies players get a part of that depending how well each individual player sells. But UB doesn’t do anything with Fantastics or anything like that. Let me be clear this is the UB Bulls and St Bonaventure Bonnies alumni NIL isn’t affiliated with the school itself to be very clear. I am sorry this poster isn’t posting accurate information at all about UB Bulls athletics. Believe me I wish Buffalo sports fans could buy the UB players merchandise like the Bonnies players merchandise. I think it would help not just with recruiting but player recognition for the Buffalo sports fans in my opinion. UB Horns Up! Go Bulls! Let’s Go Buffalo

The Buffalo Bisons lost 2-1 to the Scranton-WB Railriders tonight to start there season in Scranton.The IL playoffs are winners of each half the season going to be split into two half’s like the 1979-84 Buffalo Bisons Eastern League were in the double a was like that. The winner of the first half gets home field for all three IL playoff series games. I don’t know what happens if the same team wins both half’s the article didn’t say. The IL winner plays the PCL winner in Las Vegas for a one game Triple A National Championship in my opinion. Go Bisons! Let’s Go Buffalo

I said for two years as soon after the Buffalo Sabres acquired him and rewatched Devon Levi play World Junior for Canada he was the real deal the quickness. Again the Buffalo Sabres goalie problem part of it was the obsession with tall 6 foot 3 inches to 6 foot 5 inches goalies by the Sabres organization. Again big and can move great. Big can’t move Robin Lehner, Linus Ullmark and UPL not so good. But some Buffalo Sabres fans got caught up in believing everything the Buffalo Sabres and there Buffalo media shills were promoting. If the guy was short forget it only Big Foot goalies for the Sabres. I hope Devon Levi is a lesson size doesn’t matter stopping the puck matters trust your own eyes not what the Sabres and the Buffalo Sabres media shills are selling you listen to them Jack Eichel and Sam Reinhart should be 5 time Stanley Cup Champions for the Buffalo Sabres. Devon Levi forget Rochester Americans he needs to learn playing for the Buffalo Sabres because he is the best we got. Anyone but Devon Levi starting Buffalo Sabres goalie next season in October I wouldn’t even bother buying the Sabres tickets because the organization isn’t serious about winning anything. Craig Anderson needs to retire if he wants to be a Buffalo Sabres or Rochester Americans goalie coach fine but no more playing. Eric Comrie or UPL one of them needs to be traded and the other the Sabres backup that plays 10 games max. What? Buffalo Sabres fans heard me 10 games max and 72 games to Devon Levi. Don Edwards played 72 games when he was young it’s possible. Stopping babying Devon Levi. Goalies need a lot of action to stay sharp. The Buffalo Sabres future looks good next year if Devon Levi plays 72 games next season because that is what the Sabres are going to need to make the playoffs next season in my opinion. Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo

I will wait and see what George Halcovage can accomplish at UB? I am not sure he will accomplish much unless UB donors take it as a learning experience that UB donors needs to wake up and have NIL opportunities for the players. Or UB Bulls will be passed by the rest of the MAC. Under 2,000 students St Bonaventure Bonnies basketball has NIL and $1 million dollars plus a year coach Mark Schmidt. UB Bulls alums are cheap when it comes to passing the hat. I know I root for both these schools teams the UB Bulls are the best college football school in Western New York and the Bonnies are the best college basketball school in Western New York. BSF Western New York has only one college football program in Western New York exactly that is why there UB Bulls are the best. But college basketball UB doesn’t have that luxury there are four programs in Western New York. UB alums need to understand the rest of America are doing NIL you either do it or fall behind. If you fall so far behind you can’t compete in the MAC than what are we doing at UB. The above UB poster is right SUNY would love for UB to go back to Division 3 irrelevance again in my opinion. UB Horns Up! Go Bulls! Let’s Go Buffalo

This is a huge day a potential saving NHL hockey franchise in Buffalo day. Because how many more years are Buffalo Sabres fans going to put up with no playoffs year after year? The Key Bank Center empty seats the seats when filled with opponents team fans isn’t good for the long term health of the Buffalo Sabres franchise in Buffalo. This is a Buffalo Bills Quarterback Jim Kelly, Josh Allen moment tonight. Goalie Devon Levi needs to be great or the Sabres are in trouble long term for staying in Buffalo that is how important Devon Levi being great in goal for the Sabres is in my opinion. Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo

I like the idea to bring Bill Belichick in and moving on from Sean McDermott. Why? It makes sense because Bill Belichick weakness is former Buffalo Sabres Scotty Bowman’s weakness great coach terrible GM. The Buffalo Bills have Brandon Beane as GM so all Bill Belichick would have to do is coach our elite talented QB Josh Allen. Where have I seen that before? Oh yeah Tom Brady. Again Bills fans know where I stand Terry Pegula is a bum a move like this would help silence his critics like myself because it’s a smart move. Terry Pegula has major pressure he accepted a lot of public money from New York State he needs to win or it’s not going to be just the Western New Press questioning him it will be the New York City Press of why the Buffalo Bills are 6-11 with all the money state gave you for the stadium in Buffalo. Terry Pegula took a lot of public money he needs to win a Super Bowl or his critics will grow beyond Bills fans like BSF in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

I remember him he was a good Buffalo Bills player on the 1980 Buffalo Bills team that finally beat the Miami Dolphins and Bills fans took the field goal post down in the end zone. I have his Bell’s Super Market football card that came in a set I collected when I was a kid. If Bills QB Joe Ferguson doesn’t hurt his ankle in the New England Patriots game that 1980 team might have been our first Super Bowl championship team in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

One as someone mentioned UB Bulls are a half hour away from Orchard Park. UB Bulls are smart to stay at UB Stadium away from that mess and continue what there doing family affordable football you either are a UB Bulls fan or you’re not. Downtown Buffalo and Buffalo Canalside will get there someday but not with the current leaders in power we have a good start with Buffalo Canalside but it needs more rids like Brooklyn’s Coney Island with a small 10,000 seat soccer/concert specific stadium built around the Canalside amusement rides to produce more needed revenue for Canalside in the summer time for more investment for more infrastructure downtown forget the Buffalo Bills there doing there own business along with the dinosaurs of the dinosaurs exhibit and the dinosaurs “Rolling Stones” concert or whatever old washed up dinosaur music act they can find to bring in. BSF do you think Terry Pegula cares what any of us think? No I don’t think he cares about critics no. But I think he might care when he sees PSL’s aren’t selling the way his company and the NFL owners thought in Buffalo. BSF the Bills fans are going to buy them up fast because they have financing for the PSL’s for three years? Ok we will see if Bills fans do that. As a Buffalo Bills and former Buffalo Bills season ticket holder. I got rid of my Bills season tickets years ago mainly because of weather as a disabled man December Bills games were brutal on my joints and muscles with muscular dystrophy. Also when the Bills got rid of Drew Bledsoe I was done I knew that the Bills were heading into the darkness with QB JP Losman going all cheap again. Goodbye BSF never looked back with Bills season tickets just single Bills games in the good Buffalo weather the best decision I ever made. Make the Buffalo Bills earn my money.” I wouldn’t buy the PSL’s ever force PSE to take the money hit by not buying them because end zone seats aren’t going to be in high demand wait the Bills out until they have to forget PSL’s for those seats call PSE’s bluff. Remember PSE is stuck in Orchard Park no matter what for 15 years make PSE and the NFL owners eat the PSL’s money. No way PSE doesn’t blink and does away with the PSL’s for less in demand Bills end zone seats that is what I would do trust the process of the Bills PSL failure. I wouldn’t sign a thing let that be Terry Pegula’s stadium contribution. Trust BSF Terry Pegula will blink he isn’t going to watch the Bills end zone seats empty in a first year stadium for the next 15 years. BSF PSE doesn’t care about the Buffalo Sabres seats being empty. PSE doesn’t care about the Buffalo Sabres period anymore. The Buffalo Bills are a totally different with the NFL shield is going to question Terry Pegula and he can explain why he was too cheap to dome his new Bills Stadium. Rich people hate being embarrassed trust the process don’t buy the PSL’s Terry Pegula is stuck here for 15 years the bum if he leaves. Which he won’t because the buy out is huge. Buffalo can sue PSE like the city of St Louis if he tries to ignore the lease he signed. If I was a Buffalo Bills season ticket holder still I would wait out PSE on PSL’s don’t sign or buy anything PSL in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

But that what the majority want. The NFL ripping fans off, high prices, poor product quality. Again we need to support the big elite brands. The generations currently this is a big deal ESPN, Disney oh my. ESPN didn’t exist when until I was 11 years old and Disney was on 7 o’clock on Sunday that is it. My generation proud of because we were more open to competition and new experiences and things then today that absolutely want to get ripped off. Today’s generation I got go give ESPN, Disney and the NFL all my money to be entertained it’s weird to my generation. Look at the people that watch what I call off Broadway sports Buffalo Bandits, Buffalo Bisons, the local college sports it’s a lot of old people like myself and fans that are more open to new experiences with more individuality to them than group think that is owned by television and the cellphones. Today I got to follow the group think NFL, ESPN and Disney with shopping on Amazon today’s young people know no other way. If ESPN shutdown there will be others that takeover just like the NFL. St Louis and San Diego are doing just fine without the NFL. The Buffalo Bills play for a silver football trophy it’s really nothing different than a Bonnies NIT championship or a Bisons Governor Cup championship or a UB football bowl game championships or a Bandits Championship you win you celebrate and enjoy the experience. Sure the Bills Super Bowl more will be into it but it’s the same silver bowl, cup or trophy. I think some Buffalo fans are going to be disappointed when it isn’t this awakening for Buffalo in the eyes of the rest of America. I wonder sometimes if the worst thing that could happen is if Buffalo Bills or Buffalo Sabres won and Buffalo fans thought that was great but why am I paying all that money for that my life really didn’t change and it’s a ripoff that old BSF was right the cheaper sports are basically the same concept play for a silver cup or bowl enjoy the experience of winning but that is all it is and it’s not worth PSL’s handing all your hard earned money away to the NFL and ESPN. I know go to bed BSF in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

First this isn’t a college sports town anymore regardless of the sport it just isn’t. I have supported all of the major football UB and Big 4 basketball with season tickets we aren’t a college sports town. Minor league or minor professional sports absolutely outdraws Buffalo local college sports it has been that way since the 1980’s. I disagree the Buffalo Sabres don’t have great Buffalo support without the Canadian support. The Buffalo Destroyers and Buffalo Blizzard outdrew the Buffalo college teams. The Buffalo Bandits would draw regardless of the reservations. The Buffalo Bandits support is stronger than the always failing Buffalo Sabres take away the Sabres Canadian fan base there is nothing. Look at Buffalo Bandits games that use to be Buffalo Sabres games in the old Buffalo AUD all most everyone was rooting for the home town team that isn’t the case with the Buffalo Sabres. The Buffalo Bandits working class fans can afford the games you seem to gloss over that. Buffalo Bills are a national brand that are traditional and draw a lot of out of town fans for the weekend. The Buffalo Sabres are Canadian and original six fans see Boston, New York Rangers and Montreal brand now it was embarrassing watching that. Why is that happening economically the Buffalo Sabres are beyond working class fans today. The Buffalo Bisons play 75 games they outdraw the Buffalo Sabres total attendance. The Buffalo Bisons are a good example of what working class Buffalo can support. Why? My opinion it’s economics Buffalo working class fans aren’t spending $40 a ticket plus $20 to park that isn’t happening regardless of the Buffalo Sabres success or lack of success. The Buffalo Blizzard had family season tickets for 4 for $500 plus parking ramp for 20 games that is working class sports team. The Buffalo Destroyers $50 and $100 season tickets that is working class team. There is this myth that Buffalo will support the Buffalo Bills, Sabres and Buffalo college teams more if we keep minor professional sports out of Buffalo. It’s exactly the opposite attendance is worse today than ever before because young people aren’t experiencing live sports games of anything much in Buffalo anymore. There are no more Buffalo Blizzard Boy Scout and Girl Scout nights other than the Buffalo Bisons. Not a lot of family affordable teams anymore. It’s dangerous because young fans aren’t growing up like my generation, my nieces and nephews did. Again the Buffalo Bills aren’t affordable anymore it’s television for most people. Same with the Buffalo Sabres. Keeping everything out isn’t making the Buffalo Bills or Buffalo Sabres any less at risk of moving. Again if Buffalo, Western New York doesn’t become economically more attractive in the next 15 years 100 percent BSF guarantee both the Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres are in jeopardy of being moved regardless of the so called ironclad lease. Buffalo can’t keep shrinking economically saying nothing to see here. I also think that the Buffalo Blizzard returning in any professional soccer form would be very popular again. The Buffalo Blizzard left because the owner was ill dying and no one was interested buying the Buffalo Blizzard at the time and they folded. The Buffalo Destroyers drew decent Mark Hamister lost out on the Buffalo Sabres bid and was ticked off selling the Buffalo Destroyers to Columbus, Ohio. Buffalo Destroyers season ticket holders got Dear John letters the Buffalo Destroyers are moving to Columbus, Ohio good bye thank you for support. Buffalo OHL wouldn’t work in Buffalo I agree with that. Buffalo AHL would work because working class Buffalo Sabres fans watching on television at home now priced out of the NHL today would be able to see future Buffalo Sabres prospects for under $20 which is more affordable than $40 plus a game in my opinion. Go Bills! Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo

The Buffalo Sabres couldn’t get by the New York Islanders for one reason and only one reason Billy Smith. The problem for those good Buffalo Sabres teams is like the present Buffalo Sabres problem goaltending was subpar. We lost to Bernie Parent and Billy Smith. I think the Buffalo Sabres are Stanley Cup champions if Roger Crozier was healthy and if Tim Horton doesn’t die in the car crash. Those two events don’t happen Buffalo Sabres are 1975 Stanley Cup champions. Tim Horton was as strong as a bull the Philadelphia Flyers aren’t taking liberties with Tim Horton on the ice you didn’t mess with Tim Horton. So that freak side show Dave Schultz crap wouldn’t fly with Tim Horton the second greatest NHL defenseman to Bobby Orr. The Buffalo Sabres if they trade for Gilles Meloche from the Cleveland Barons which was rumored at that time in 1977 in Buffalo after the Gerry Desjardins eye injury things might have been different with the Buffalo Sabres. But from what I understand the Cleveland Barons wanted a top six Buffalo Sabres forward and Punch Imlach thought the asking price was too high in my opinion. Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo

Don’t worry the Buffalo Bills and New York State building that stadium regardless of the cost it will be built. I BSF guarantee it because it’s poorly designed cheaply so it will be the new Rich Stadium built on the cheap. “Trust the processes” of terrible big Buffalo projects we are the World Champions of bad big projects so it will happen it’s destiny for Buffalo. Just turn up the music Buffalo got the spirit talking proud, talking proud play that don’t think the Buffalo Bills and New York State don’t want Buffalo fans to think. I know BSF go to bed your old in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo You would think Terry Pegula would be able to afford to renovate his own stadium and arena? PSE has no excuses win a championship I don’t want to hear excuses from that cheap bum in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

Then what does that say about Buffalo? How are the Buffalo Bills selling those expensive boxes in the new stadium with such a limited offering of programming? Why would you pay if you are a company lets say double for what the Bills are currently offering? Just because it has technology upgraded? I can tell you what was really shocking that new Bills stadium scoreboard was very underwhelming I wasn’t impressed it looked smaller than what the Bills currently have. The Key Bank Center has zero tenants beyond the two teams that Seymour and Norty Knox started. How long have they been gone decades? Again why are we even building a new Buffalo Bills stadium for $1.4 billion dollars if our area sucks so bad for our young wealthy to invest if there are any young wealthy in Western New York to invest? Key Bank Center can’t get small business teams where players in the IFL make between $250 to $500 a game. MASL the salary is between $15,000 to $45,000 a player for the whole new Buffalo Blizzard indoor soccer team is less than a fourth line Buffalo Sabres player? If that is a heavy lift how is NFL staying in Buffalo long term with the kind of dollars that the NFL is asking there member teams going forward? Again we are building a open air football stadium for $1.4 billion dollars we can’t fill the dome stadium downtown already? What? I was in Key Bank Center with no seats in it as a Buffalo Blizzard season ticket holder when it was being built. I was 100% behind the new arena except I would have also kept the Buffalo AUD as a college sports home for our area Division I teams along with a Buffalo Sports Museum. I wouldn’t have built that Explore and More Kids Museum that is a money loser because they already have one in Rochester instead in that area I would have made that area all high end housing to build a tax base for the city there. When I first saw Key Bank Center it look like a giant space ship compared to Buffalo Memorial Auditorium just huge. I will tell Buffalo fans that Key Bank Center was way more impressive than the crap we are building in Orchard Park. Anyway when I was inside Key Bank Center I thought there is no way this place wasn’t going to be happening 300 nights a year for the next 50 years. At first it was then when the 1990’s ended first the Big 4 basketball left. Then the Buffalo Blizzard left after 2001. Buffalo fans don’t realize that was a heavy loss for this city. The Buffalo Blizzard were many of our soccer players taking on the teams in indoor soccer NPSL it gave Key Bank Center 20 dates a year. Then in 2003 the Buffalo Sabres go bankrupt the Buffalo Destroyers Arena Football team gets sold to Columbus, Ohio another heavy loss for Buffalo. Again these teams create jobs gone bye, bye. Key Bank Center never was right from a business standpoint after those dates going away. What the Buffalo Sabres waste on Ralph Krueger to not coach could have paid for both those teams. We aren’t talking MLS or NBA we are talking MASL and IFL if stuff like that is a heavy left today for Buffalo. How is a Buffalo fan believing that the New Bills stadium isn’t going to be a white elephant that just rots there 350 days a year in Orchard Park? PSE can’t expand there business at Key Bank Center. How are PSE running a new stadium when they can’t run Key Bank Center? San Diego Arena is a dump compared to Key Bank Center. Why can’t PSE or anyone have that building filled for more than Buffalo Sabres wine tasting? Again Key Bank Center can’t be that empty and make a profit for the Buffalo Sabres it isn’t possible. How are the Buffalo Sabres justifying renovations to Key Bank Center when there is no investment there. They build Harbor Center with the hotel and shops but they don’t have enough critical mass of fans to support those business because Key Bank Center doesn’t do a lot of business anymore compared to the 1990’s. It is just a matter of time before Key Bank Center loses the NCAA tournament because of all the new arenas going up. If you are a Buffalo fan what is best if you ask me is to hope Terry Pegula sells the Buffalo Sabres to someone local that can focus there energy building the dome stadium that we have downtown empty Key Bank Center which is a disgrace. If you are young you don’t understand Key Bank Center is one of the emptiest arena in America a disgrace sell controlling interest in the Key Bank Center and the Buffalo Sabres we would be better off as a Western New York community. Let PSE run the Buffalo Bills and that new Bills stadium into the ground. Because I always felt that the Key Bank Center is more important for downtown sell Terry Pegula sell the Buffalo Sabres along with Key Bank Center in my opinion. Go Bills! Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo
