mellaman101 Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 I dont know how the insides work and everything. I figure the owner briefs the Pres and GM on what they want to spend and stuff but do you think taking on the Bills and Sabres is a lot for one person? The Bills are up and coming but have a lot of stress when it comes to the demands of a new stadium, how to generate more revenue, and the demand the fans on this team winning finally. The Sabres may just be the front runners to land McDavid. Hell, if the Islanders stink up the joint, we may land the 1st and 2nd pick. Also we have the Blues first rounder also. On top of all that drama, you got a ton of talent that will be traded off to playoff contender teams with some of those guys they got (Gionta, Moulson) It will be mania up in Buffalo if they land McDavid. OMG I cant even think of getting a ticket or how much the cost will be to land one if we get this kid. I think thats a lot on anyones plate but I guess becoming a Billionaire you know how to handle things... Go Bills and Sabres and have a safe week everyone! Off to the Veterans hospital for me!
TheBillsWillRiseAgain Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Rich people have a ton of less rich but still wealthy people to worry about most of that stuff for them.
Maddog69 Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Wow, I thought there was some crazy rule about owning two teams in two different leagues. I hope nobody finds out about this.
jimmy10 Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 He's the owner. He won't be answering phones or making copies. I think he can handle it.
Kirby Jackson Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Professional owners are EXTREMELY hands off (even the most hands on people). They hire good people and delegate.
Dirtbag Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) i don't mind the pegulas owning both the bills and sabres as long as their primary focus is on the bandits. Edited October 8, 2014 by Dirtbag
Luxy312 Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Guys like Pegula delegate a TON. This will have no bearing on what he can "handle". Would anyone seriously think that adding another billion dollar land deal would make a difference to him? Why would adding ownership of the team. Same difference. He has guys to deal with the small (but important) stuff.
dwight in philly Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Wow, I thought there was some crazy rule about owning two teams in two different leagues. I hope nobody finds out about this.
K D Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 did anyone at the NFL check to see if it's ok for Pegula to own 2 different teams in the same city? they probably should have looked into that before they voted. oh well, too late now!!!
Just Jack Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 I heard the Sabres were secretly sold to someone named "Perry Tegula" recently, so there's no conflict of interest.
boyst Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 If they divorce does that mean that one gets the Bills and the other gets the Sabres + Sanborne?
Peter Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Now that we have established that the Pegulas can own both the Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres, maybe someone can check whether the Sabres can trade one of their three first round draft choices to the Bills. Just joking "obviously" (to quote Doug Marrone).
YoloinOhio Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 That's what Russ Brandon is for. He's already been running the team so I'm sure there will be some changes but I expect Kim and Terry would continue to utilize him in a similar role.
K-9 Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 El Pegual' first love is hockey. Always has been, always will be. I'd look for Kim to be the meddling owner we'll need to blame in the future. When she hires Pat LaFontaine as VP of Football Operations, you'll all know it, too. GO BILLS!!!
Nick the Greek Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Robert Kraft owns 2 teams: Pats and New England Revolution of Major League Soccer. Owning 2 teams isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Augie Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Now that we have established that the Pegulas can own both the Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres, maybe someone can check whether the Sabres can trade one of their three first round draft choices to the Bills. Do the Sabres have a need for Jeff Tuel? This could work!!! Just joking "obviously" (to quote Doug Marrone).
