Deadline to announce move to Detroit ??????????????
Big Turk replied to Gisele's topic in The Stadium Wall
OMG...it just keeps increasing... Now 48-60" for Buffalo... -
Raiders don't have enough money to fire McDaniels

Then fired their interim coach who led them to that record to hire this dumpster fire. -

Big Turk replied to Gisele's topic in The Stadium Wall
He says without any knowledge he puts odds at 3-1 the game is played here...maybe moved to 4pm. However, then when told they are playing in Detroit for Thanksgiving, said it's a very good possibility they may just do that and stay out there... -
I mean this is just wild...dude is so rattled in games he is using audibles from Seattle and nobody on Denver knows what the hell he is calling on offense apparently at times... https://www.yahoo.com/sports/losing-mind-broken-russell-wilson-160017230.html

Very interesting convo from Cover 1 with former VP of Administrative Planning for the Bills during the Snovember game in 2014 that was moved to Detroit talking timelines, etc... -

There are plenty of people, trust me. I'd suggest most people who remember crossing the border once when they were visiting Uncle Lou and Aunt Susan 30 years ago and simply had to show their driver's license. -

That was mostly my point...I probably shouldn't have included those links as they talked about vax status, but the NFL lets teams know well in advance if they will be crossing international borders or playing in international games so they can get all their ducks in a row with paperwork, etc...24-48 hours certainly isn't enough time for that to happen. -

Well...could use it as a huge revenue boost. Erie County Sherriff's basically just set up a roadblock and write mass tickets for everyone coming into the stadium. -

No, doesn't have the wiring setup for what they need from a broadcast standpoint. -
Which still would be difficult for the Bills as there there will be substantial snow on the ground already and they will be trying to leave in the midst of the worst of it happening. Although this allows an option of the Browns getting in early Sunday morning.

Also an option the game could be played with nobody in attendance and only the key people(like 400 or so) needed to carry on an NFL broadcast, film it and the players/refs/coaches to play in it. NFL cares more about the game being played than the fans. -
Some rumblings it could get pushed back to like 6pm to give extra time to clear snow but with that much snow they need extra days, not a few hours and that does nothing to lift a travel ban that last time was in place for multiple days after the snow stopped. Would also allow the Browns to potentially fly in Sunday morning.

You are forgetting about the debt service on the $1 Billion new stadium AND the debt service on the $378 million relocation fee they had to take out from a bank due to not having the money to pay it upfront. That adds quite a bit to their costs every year and they were already one of the most "cash poor" franchises there was prior to this...in fact the move to Las Vegas was in large part driven by this---trying to improve cash flow. -

Yeah, that's BS but nice try with the fake news. https://en.as.com/mlb/which-unvaccinated-kansas-city-royals-players-cant-enter-canada-to-play-the-blue-jays-n/ https://sports.yahoo.com/nba-reportedly-warns-players-they-cant-play-in-toronto-without-covid-19-vaccination-011445065.html -

Highly unlikely with some players likely not having proper documents for border crossing. -

Because it isn't up to NFL standards and has been ruled out. -
Forecast has continuously gotten worse as did Snowvember. Latest HRRR models are showing some places slightly south of Buffalo with up to 72" of snow. There are going to be a lot of places with more than 4 feet

There are so many issues with playing a game here that people don't consider...mainly is Erie County going to want to divert the majority of it's resources to making sure the stadium is cleared to play versus the surrounding areas? Travel to here is another issue, travel bans for fans to get to the game, etc.
