Planning to come to Buffalo for Titans MNF
DrDawkinstein replied to Southern_Bills's topic in The Stadium Wall
Early September (no snow), at night (no sun)... there really isnt a bad seat in the house. Personally, I don't go too high up in the upper deck, but that's cause my vision sucks from that far. I prefer the corners of the lower bowl, about 20-30 rows up. Club seats if you're fancy. Or the first group of rows in the upper deck. -

First tip off is Pittsburgh isnt even spelled correctly. LOL

Breaking the Cycle - Elam Family Problems
DrDawkinstein replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
For what it's worth, Dad seemed to turn it around after being kicked out of Notre Dame. "He attended Palm Beach Community College and worked at a dentist's office. He enrolled at Kent State University in 2004, but because he initially did not receive a scholarship, the Riviera Beach residents raised US$20,000 to pay for his tuition." Gotta make a good impression if an entire community rallies around you to send you to college. And this was before GoFundMe! -
Anyone else see this floating around?

I hear Beane say that it's good Kaiir has the help of his dad and uncle who have been through the transition to the pros before to help guide and support him along the way. On the other hand, the Elam family seems to have a long history of trouble and I am hoping Kaiir can break that cycle. For what it's worth, the kid seems to have a good head on his shoulders, and I hope that Abram (dad) and Matt's (uncle) successes help everyone move onward and upward. Sounds like they had a rough upbringing, and football has helped lift the family out of the cycle. I hope.... Dad: Elam accepted a football scholarship from the University of Notre Dame. As a sophomore in 2002, a felony sexual battery conviction got him expelled from the school. Uncle: On February 26, 2017, Elam was arrested in Miami, Florida for possession of a 126.2 grams of marijuana and 3.1 grams of oxycodone. He was charged with one count of cannabis possession, one count of possession of cannabis with intent to sell or deliver, and one count of possession of a controlled substance. On June 26, 2017, the drug charges were dropped. On May 22, 2017, Elam was arrested on battery and theft charges involving a dispute with his girlfriend over an iPhone. Delray Beach Police charged him with suspicion of grand theft and misdemeanor battery after confrontation and was booked in Palm Beach County Jail and had a bond set at $4,500. According to a police report, he went to his girlfriend's residence to pick up a vehicle and attempted to grab her iPhone from her hand after she refused to give him his money. During the process of grabbing the phone, the couple fell to the ground and continued to struggle over it. She then entered his vehicle and took his cell phone and Elam responded by leaving after she refused to return it. On June 21, 2017, the charges were dropped after the prosecutor said the accuser would not cooperate and they had insufficient evidence to proceed with the case. Family: Since 1987, three of Elam's siblings were shot to death. His older brother, Donald Runner, was fatally shot in 1987. His sister Christina, was killed in 1999. On May 9, 2008, his older brother Donald Elam was fatally shot; at age 14, Donald was once the youngest person ever indicted for murder in Palm Beach County, though he was later acquitted. I'm not making any judgements on Kaiir or even the Elam family. I simply wasnt aware of all this stuff surrounding the Elams until I looked them up recently. It is definitely rough in the streets of south Florida. I hope they are out of that mess for good and Kaiir's generation in the family gets a fresh start.

Did they mention anything about payment options: I've heard (read): Pay for it upfront. 3 interest free payments leading up to the opening of the stadium. 10 month payment plan at 8% interest. Which makes them even more doable. We're 5(?) years out from needing to pay this one-time fee. Start saving now, folks. Better than putting your money in the market right now anyways.
-
They definitely don't since I believe the article is at least a year old and they were using current pricing. But a lot of teams already have PSLs and they don't get factored into that list, so ours wouldn't either. Depends on how you look at the PSL since it is a 1-time fee. How long are you going to hold your tickets to spread that cost over? 5 years? 10 years? Plus, the PSL can be resold/transferred if you decide to give up your tickets. Either way, original point still stands: Bills already have the cheapest tickets in the league (and have for decades). When you look at prices for other teams, and the new pricing, we're still low. Maybe we move up to...?... 26 instead of 32? If Buffalo can't afford tickets in the bottom quarter of the league, then that is a Buffalo problem. I understand a lot of folks will be priced out, but there should be enough to take their places. Don't get me wrong, PSLs suck, I hate it, but it is the reality of the situation.

Sure, here's one https://fanbuzz.com/nfl/nfl-game-costs/

The the team should probably move since those are still cheap (maybe still the cheapest) in the NFL.

None taken. Nothing we say here has any relevance to anything in real life!

I've mentioned this in other threads, but will keep repeating just to provide perspective: He was ranked and drafted later than Chris Kelsay. So set expectations accordingly.

Let the man live his life! But for real, no idea. He was always a quiet, reserved type anyways. Not at all surprised he's enjoying a quiet retirement, out of the spotlight.

Jets and Texans the teams on this guy's resume.... I hope he's looking to make a change because those teams didn't listen to his advice.

I dont get what the NFL is thinking here. Eating into their own ratings. NFL should be pushing for as little overlap as possible across all of their scheduling.

"Given the email the Bills sent STH" is the crucial part of Yolo's statement. They said they'll announce the home opener later in the week. Implying that today's announcement of MNF wk 2 is NOT the home opener.
-
In an email to season ticket holders this AM, Bills wrote that home opener will be announced Thursday @ 6pm ahead of the full release at 8pm. That means Bills vs. Titans ISN'T home opener & would seem to signal Buffalo being out for the Thursday season kickoff game vs. Rams. See above

Execs Unfiltered On All 32 Draft Classes
DrDawkinstein replied to Brand J's topic in The Stadium Wall
Ehh. It could easily be argued that the Bills had to sign Miller because they were losing the 2 biggest Veteran presences on the DL, Hughes and Addison, and replaced them with one superstar vet instead. Not necessarily a knock on the young guys who everyone would expect to be still developing. -
Execs Unfiltered On All 32 Draft Classes
DrDawkinstein replied to Brand J's topic in The Stadium Wall
Epenesa absolutely owned the first Miami game and was responsible for knocking Tua out of the game. HE's had a few other good plays too. It's been a bit more than one preseason rep (but granted, not much more). -
Execs Unfiltered On All 32 Draft Classes
DrDawkinstein replied to Brand J's topic in The Stadium Wall
Both were selected far after, and neither were as heralded prospects, as... Chris Kelsay. So keep that perspective when judging how they are performing vs their draft position.
