I love the idea of a paywall the more I think about it. Many here complain about paying for The Athletic or BN...seriously? You won’t pay for people’s work? Ask a plumber or HVAC person to your house and then stiff them. How does that work out?
Dead-on! This drives me nuts as well.

*side note I would have no issues if you had to offer a paid “premium” membership to keep this place going. This is the best source of Buffalo Bills info on the web, and the only place I really come for NFL news in general. I read the forum daily so it would be worth the money in my opinion
This. I would support this as well.

Thanks to all of you for reading and for your comments. Today was a tough one, but it actually helped to share this with someone. I'm going to try several of the suggestions in this thread. Trying to tough it out has not been a fruitful path for dealing any better with this.

Today is the 2nd anniversary of my mom's death, and it's hitting me like a ton of bricks. Lost my biological father (never really knew him) a few years back, so it didn't hurt as much. I didn't expect to be without both of my parents before I hit the age of 30, but that's exactly what happened.
Have had other things happen within the past couple years that definitely haven't helped (covid layoff last April, coming up on a year of unemployment), but my mom's passing has really hit hard.
Any advice for getting through the death of a parent, or tough times in general? I've tried to remain tough, grind it out, and keep pushing, but it gets to the point where I feel I just have nothing left to fight for. Just kinda getting a few things off my chest here. Would appreciate any insight. Thanks for reading.

This. He should've been behind bars the past 15 years. My most hated player in football.

That motion to dismiss is so poorly drafted. It reads as if it's written by a 12-year old, complete with poor grammar (and misspelling of the name of the attorney's own client!). Proof read much?
The cancellation notice from the seller's attorney was timely delivered, apparently.
I'd be surprised if the case isn't withdrawn with respect to Tre in the very near future. IMO, Tre was named as a defendant primarily to create some buzz and publicity...and it worked. If not for Tre's involvement, who would be talking about this? Seems like an over-litigious attorney who is pissed off that he's not getting his way. And lawyers wonder why they get a bad rap...
Did you read the accompanying exhibits? The first email from Marco indicates he intended to name the "new purchasers" before he knew that Tre White was that purchaser. He asked the selling agent for their identities. He always intended to name them. Then in the second email he is confirming that it is Tre White, and in that email he does confirm he intended to go to the media.

This is the standard residential real estate contract used in Erie County, and likely the one executed in this transaction. I've only ever used this one in practice.

It's an overly aggressive lawyer trying to put as much pressure on the situation as possible.
This.
I have a unique perspective - I had the misfortune of working directly for this attorney (Cercone). One of the worst human beings I've ever had the "pleasure" of meeting, let alone working for.

As expected.
Nix is meeting with Bills' officials as we speak.

What makes you say this?
I've posted sporadically about updates regarding this topic. It's difficult to say when it will be announced, but something significant has been in the works for at least the past eighteen months.
-
You mean 'when' not 'if'. Today saved them, i'd guess.
Gailey is done. That decision was made before today's opening kickoff.
-
As of right now, the chances of Nix returning are at about 50%.
-
Gailey will be gone by mid-week.
Take it to the bank.
And that likely won't even be the most significant change of the off-season.

Quite a few tickets on Stubhub - starting at $59.

Nice piece.
Ain't that the truth.

Any updates on this?
Potentially - waiting to hear from my sources about a certain development, but nothing as of yet.
-
That could mean that Ralph is no longer lucid enough to handle his own affairs and someone else his handling his business dealings.
The latter, yes - but not so much because of the former.
-
Can Doc or Patience shed any light on why activity is picking up now? Granted Ralph is 93 years old, but does he want to be directly involved with planning the sale to make sure it proceeds exactly how he wants it to unfold?
Not so much - pretty much the opposite.

There are two serious groups that will be ready to purchase the Buffalo Bills when the proper time comes - one of them not affiliated with Jim Kelly. Both possess the necessary funds to purchase the team. Both of them fully intend to keep the Bills in Western New York. One of the groups intends to be ambitious regarding a new stadium, which they want closer to the U.S.-Canada border. The third group has a casual interest in purchasing the team, also with intentions to keep the team in Buffalo.
There are no talks between Banner and the Bills. Won't happen.
This was my post earlier in this thread - I believed the timing was appropriate to submit the post. Doc's assertion supports it. A lot of activity, recently.
-
I'm surprised there hasn't already been a huge backlash against you, but I for one appreciate the info and will give you the benefit of the doubt.
Sure.
I don't really care / consider how certain information will be taken. If I have it on good authority particular information is true, I will spread it without implicating the source(s).
-
To add some credence to this, I used to work with a member of the Kelly family and about a year and a half ago we were talking about the Bills and their potential to move out of Buffalo once Ralph passes. This individual just kinda smiled at us during the conversation and let everyone else voice their opinion before they finally said "You guys can stop worrying. Without going into it, the Bills won't be leaving Buffalo".
More bluster from the Kelly clique? Totally a possibility...but still interesting.
For the quotation in your post - precisely.
I'd like to avoid getting into specifics, too. I know it will be seen as a "cop-out," but I think I have provided the most important piece of information Bills' fans are seeking.
Your day 2 crush?
