thebandit27 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Very happy that there is no mention of Ralph Wilson in the naming of the stadium. Wilson always cried poor about revenue, moving the team and scared Bills fans into buying tickets for decades but at the same time ignored the most obvious and easiest way to generate revenue for the franchise. I welcome the naming of New Era Field and joyfully say good bye to the name Ralph Wilson Stadium. FYI--The county named it after Ralph, and he authorized the FO to pursue a naming rights deal back in 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Ralph but it was strange that he was all about revenue sharing but not all about maximizing his opportunities. He could have easily done this at any point since the Rich deal expired. He did okay it late in his life but it still could have been sooner. Edited August 18, 2016 by Kirby Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PastaJoe Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 The cap on the left with BILLS reminds me of a frowny face or Beeker from the Muppets. Sad that it hasn't seen a playoff game in 16 years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Good Omen: @SalSports 30 years ago today, I and many of you watched this guy walk off a plane in Buffalo to sign with the Bills.

PromoTheRobot Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 no problem. I think the deal puts them in the top ten for stadiums with naming rights. Ford Field is 20y, 40m and they were at 9th for reference. Or what WEO calls "a drop in the bucket." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Looks better. One step closer to cleansing the taint of losing. Still have to move Ralph's statue next to the urinals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
