11/9/25 GAMEDAY Bills at Dolphins Post Game Thread
SoonerBillsFan replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Agreed, he has achieve saint hood and you will be burned at the stake for Blasphemy if you tell the truth in regards to Josh -
Two reasons. 1. Most are Billionaires outside of the NFL on their own. 2. Their teams make tons of money even if they suck. But how can that be? Well first off for the 2025 NFL fiscal year, each team is expected to receive approximately $432.6 million in national revenue from sources like media rights, sponsorships, and licensing. This represents a 7.5% increase from the previous year, driven by the league's growing media deals with traditional broadcasters and streamers like Netflix, Amazon, and YouTube. The salary cap is $279.2 million per team. So math says that is a 153.4 Million dollar profit by doing NOTHING. Nothing... just sitting there. They could literally have ZERO fans in the stands and still make a profit. I get that there are stadium upkeep costs... which are mostly covered by the county and state per the stadium deal. They have to pay for signing bonuses, coaches salaries and what not, but that is easily covered by that 153 mill. (and those are tax deductions BTW). So after all the costs, taxes, etc. you can bet an owner brings in minimum of 50 Million net and again that is if the Stadium NEVER has one fan in a seat. PSL's, concessions, tickets, merchandise sales, that is all just icing on the cake, its the TV deals that make the wheel turn. Why do you think shahid khan never cared that the Jags only had 13000 or so in the stands and he had to close off part of the seating? Why do you think Brown doesn't care to pay for an OL or a Defense in Cincy? Many of us came from an Era where almost all the Owners gave a damn about WINNING. The Maras, Rooney's, DeBartolo's and you bet your arse Al Davis all cared about winning. Now its about TV and making a profit, they KNOW fans will flock to the stadiums, they just will. I bring this up because my Brother Rich and I had a long conversation about this yesterday after the game and YES it started off focusing on IF Pegula would make a change in Regime AND we were remembering the NFL under Tagliabue (RIP Sir). We agreed that we feel the NFL was better back then and maybe peaked under his time as the Commissioner. As for Terry Pegula making a change, No. We feel he has no incentive to, for the above listed reasons AND the Bills sure as hell look better than the sabers. But then we talked football in General again thinking about the current state overall, how we feel its watered down, and a pathetic shell of what it once was. Why is Officiating so bad? Well the owners don't care (see above) and we feel Vegas has a lot to do with it. And YES I am saying I think refs are being persuaded in some form by Vegas. In the end the reality is this... watch or don't watch, spend your money on the Bills or any other team or don't. Bottom line "It is what it is" and we have NO say, and NEVER will, in any of it. We are all just along for the ride. End of Rant.

I said it in another post and got fried for it. I see maybe one more year with Josh, he will open the new stadium he helped build then call it a career. You are spot on, that he isn't going to live in Buffalo when its over and he was never going to play into his mid 30's. Fans have this fantasy about that and reality is much harsher -
Spot on. If Kim were healthy, I dont believe mcbeane would be here.

If it were a complete rupture proximal, at the shoulder, they wouldnt do anything. That is how folks get the "Popeye" biceps, they dont even re attach it. But the elbow...damn -
