DrDawkinstein Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Wow! Good for Russ, and lol at the folks that thought he was a dead-man walking when the Pegulas took over.
sodbuster Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 I wonder how many guys have championship rings from three leagues...
26CornerBlitz Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 @Schopptalk Russ Brandon in @WGR550 studios at 5 ET today.
PromoTheRobot Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Wow! Good for Russ, and lol at the folks that thought he was a dead-man walking when the Pegulas took over. Absolutely. Anyone see any mushroom clouds from the exploding heads of Brandon haters?
PromoTheRobot Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 But it does seem like Ted Black fell out of the Pegula's favor at some point last season. I wonder what did him in?
Not at the table Karlos Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 I like this move. Russ is very good at what he does. I can't wait to see his work with the sabres

plenzmd1 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Can Russ Brandon be the president of both the Bills AND Sabres? Actually, I wonder if the PSE had to clear this with the NFL first. Thought I read during the sale NFL really really frowns on this type of arrangement. Might have just been they do not want any cross marketing etc, but be interesting to hear Russ on GR this afternoon.

PromoTheRobot Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 see my first post in this thread... Uhhhh...no.
Kirby Jackson Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 This is not even a little surprising to me. In fact, you can see this predicted on here about a year ago. One guy is good at what he does and one guy is not.
YoloinOhio Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 @TBNbucky: Source: Pegulas found how operations worked smoothly with Bills, then wondered why Sabres had so many problems. They looked at presidents.
Flip Johnson Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 This is true. He's under appriciated because he makes terrible on field (hopefully not on ice) decisions. But he's one of the reasons we've stayed viable in such a small market with a mediocre at best team. +1 I get the sense that he genuinely bleeds Buffalo and that there was nothing fake about his affection for Ralph. This looks like a smart business move by the Pegulas and would have to mean that Russ is being moved even further away from any decisions related to football ops.
Kirby Jackson Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 The new Mickey Loomis Except like 5x better. Loomis is kind of an idiot
plenzmd1 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) Except like 5x better. Loomis is kind of an idiotDoes he run both Kirby? Same setup with a PSE type organization? And Loomis is GM right ...does he run business side of both though? Edited July 27, 2015 by plenzmd1

Helpmenow Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 My Buddy who works for the Sabres must be laughing
