26CornerBlitz Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 @buffalobills .@RussBrandon: All fans encouraged to be seated by 12:40 on Sunday. Giveaways and special pregame ceremony planned. #bethere 10-08: THURMAN THOMAS GIVES HIS THOUGHTS ON TERRY PEGULA BUYING THE TEAM ON THE JMS (8:43)
PromoTheRobot Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 It is interesting that both Bills owners made their fortunes in mineral rights. I am pretty sure the Wilson's were into mining. Actually they made their money in trucking and insurance. Mining might have been a side venture.
May Day 10 Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 @JoeBuscaglia Raiders Mark Davis was asked for comment on the Pegulas. Response: Be careful what you wish for, because you just might get a football team how long until he sells to Magic and crew in LA?
mrags Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 one more sleep before the cheque clears... say it in prison talk. A wake up
thebandit27 Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 15 freaking seconds to make the vote Took 45 times longer than I expected...I believe I predicted it would take 1/3 of a second.
Smitty846 Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 <----- look left. See that title under my avatar? You may want to re-think your comments in the future. So someone's not allowed to give you a shot because you're a moderator? Should a moderator be trying to intimidate someone? Must be hard being an internet bully. Relax, it's just a silly forum.

aristocrat Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 When did the NFL stop allowing owners to finance the teams? I remember the skins had a crazy finance deal where whats his name had to bring in minority partners just to pay down the debt. Same with several other teams. I wonder if this is what played in to the vote happening so quickly? It's awfully hard to have any negative votes when a guy writes such a big check.
Kelly the Dog Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Took 45 times longer than I expected...I believe I predicted it would take 1/3 of a second. Depends on how they did the vote. They probably went around the room or table and each owner took approximately 1.5 seconds to raise their hand and be counted. If it were to be a straight "all in favor say aye" vote, .33 seconds may have been quite prophetic.

MarkAF43 Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Says the guy name calling on the internet. Just calling it based on the way you're acting. Maybe you should realize this isn't a "silly little forum", Bills fans consider themselves to be like family. This is a place where many people know each other outside of the board, are friends, and companions, as we laugh and cry and get pissed off about our beloved Bills. So maybe you should drop the attitude and realize this is a community of good people who are Bills fans and may disagree and argue but treat each other with respect. If you can't, then maybe you shouldn't be here.

Smitty846 Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 [may disagree and argue but treat each other with respect]. Exactly why a moderator shouldn't attempt to intimidate someone for giving a friendly jab, and why an adult shouldn't take to name calling under the cover of the internet. In the grand scheme of things this is a just an online forum, as much as you may love it. Finally, someone with the attitude of "I'm a moderator, bow to me" - or can't take a joke or some criticism should probably cool it or be the one to leave. Don't take a shot at a mod! You could get blocked and lose everything! Give me a break. I won't comment any further on this, as it is just that ridiculous. Good day.
ExiledInIllinois Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Two things: 1) The lack of scientific and engineering knowledge among the American population is staggering. 2) We need an artistically inclined individual here to make a "Che" style poster for El Pegual. VIVA EL PEGUAL! You can say that again! Especially number 1. But to be truthful, sometimes I can't blame them given the past and how they were played in history. It's just the seesaw has tipped the other way. But I digress: Viva El Pegual! Actually they made their money in trucking and insurance. Mining might have been a side venture. That's right... Minining was a side venture. Thanx for jogging my crappy memory. ;-)

Thanks for it, even if it started out little on the surly side! Everybody back to their corners before things get out of hand. I went back and re-read what was said. It was obvious that you were joking. I understand Jack's need to maintain decorum. Thanks for letting it be. Hasn't it been a great time to be a Buffalo Bills fan!
