mrags Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 How long until TPegs commissions a statue of Kelly, Thurman, Bruce, Reed and Ralph at OBD?? and Marv So, we are saying Mr Ags should stay? who is Mr. Ags???
yall Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Interesting. I didn't think Trump was going in for more than 850-900 million.
PromoTheRobot Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Tim G Twitter says Trump bid $1B The tally: Trump - $1B JBJ - $1.2B Pegual - $1.3B A billion from the Donald? I'm surprised he made a bid that strong. I figured he'd be around $750MM just for show.
inkman Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Tim G Twitter says Trump bid $1B The tally: Trump - $1B JBJ - $1.2B Pegual - $1.3B So we're good here? Am I missing something?
Nighttime in Nigeria Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Tim Graham's tweet says (jokingly) that Trump bid $1. Not $1 billion.
Beerball Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Looks like anyone who guessed under $1B in the guess thread is out of the running. Here's ESPN's blurb. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/11285661/bids-buffalo-bills-submitted-three-groups
NewEra Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 It is the beginning of a new era for your team! Donte?
need therapy Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Tim Graham's tweet says (jokingly) that Trump bid $1. Not $1 billion. Damn, I didn't realize they were doing this "Showcase Showdown" style. Can I bid $2?
Jauronimo Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Damn, I didn't realize they were doing this "Showcase Showdown" style. Can I bid $2? Just don't go over.
Kemp2Warlick Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Bills Daily @billsdaily 1m Golisano still may bid on the Bills according to the Buffalo News http://ow.ly/zKYtc
chris heff Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 I'm confused, Bon Jovi estimated net worth is somewhere between $300 - $500m. To be the majority owner wouldn't he have to put up every cent he has? How does this get past the NFL owners?
mrags Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 Bills Daily @billsdaily 1m Golisano still may bid on the Bills according to the Buffalo News http://ow.ly/zKYtc how is that possible? Wasn't there a time frame when he had to submit? Isn't that over?
BringBackFergy Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 How long until TPegs commissions a statue of Kelly, Thurman, Bruce, Reed and Ralph at OBD?? I can't believe the lack of respect for Levitre from this Board.
Kellyto83TD Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 so where should we put the statue of El Pegual? this guy has basically saved a whole city, it's the least we can do You mean until he sells to someone else? So make sure its someplace that won't hurt anyone when the masses tear it down.
Captain Caveman Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 I realize the "official" release of who the new owner will have to wait, but couldn't the Wilson estate announce whose bid they have accepted and forwarded to the NFL?? That, would help immensely in relieving some of the pressure to find out the fate of the BILLS. In that, if in fact it were Pegula, I would rest easier knowing the first major hurdle was overcome and the last was to be approved by the NFL...if I / we have to wait until October to find out both of those facts, it's going to be a long couple of months and much, much, much more conjecture...which, I'm already sick of...ughh! They're not accepting one bid at this time, at this time, they're going to sort out the serious suitors from the bids that don't have any chance.
beerme1 Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 so do we have to start over again? RIP Mr Wilson! LOL I see no reason to have closed the old one. We all simply check new content in it anyway. And you're right RIP Ralph. And now, again, VIVA EL PEGUAL
Kelly the Dog Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 how is that possible? Wasn't there a time frame when he had to submit? Isn't that over? Yes and no. There was a deadline but it's not a legal thing. The Trust can do whatever it wants. It's starting work right now (well the bank is) on the bids, but it is not going to turn down someone coming in this week with a bid higher than the ones it already has in hand. Golisano is just posturing IMO. He wanted to see the bids. He knows he cannot compete with Pegula. Now that the numbers are higher than first thought he can just sit this out and offer to help or put some in to ensure the team stays in Buffalo.
Big Turk Posted July 30, 2014 Posted July 30, 2014 So "Non" Jovi is somehow going to need to come up with a minimum of $420 million personally if they bid 1.4 Billion, at which point Pegula will bid 1.5 and then knock them out since at $420 million depending on reports, that would be $120 million more than he is worth or basically leave him shopping at Dollar Tree and eating at local soup kitchens and his own restaurant for free because he wouldn't have two nickels to rub together. Quite an embarrassing position for a potential NFL owner and one I would think the league would frown upon...
