Yahoo writer tries to float Bills next relocation target

Blah blah blah, insult city, blah blah blah, then says it probably won't happen.

 

Don't click.

Please, for the love of god don't click.

I'm actually sorry I did.

It's clicking on these stupid links that actually provide incentive and reward for this form of unsubstantiated and mostly incomprehensibly unsound style of writing to continue and, fearfully, grow.

 

Don't click.

Heck, don't even post this shill.

Written by someone who did little to no research. Pegula is not moving. Stadium will be built but frugally like Lucas Oil in Indy. No sports palace needed to soothe the ego of the owner (Dallas). Writer of the piece was lazy and embarrassed himself.

With little research, I could probably write an essay on why/how buffalo is too small for the nfl, and how much more lucrative cities like toronto would be... they are most likely safe for the near and long term. The shadow of the stadium negotiation still looms a little bit, but i would say the pegulas' secrecy and silence on that front is a good sign.

 

This article does not really make any valid points. He actually points at the attendance "problems" as a reason... ha.

That article makes the stuff that Sully and Bucky write look like Pulitzer journalism.

 

And that's hard to do.

 

I always thought journalists were supposed to report the news. But in this case - and many others - they're inventing the news.

 

Other than this article, there is no speculation out there about the Bills moving. Goodell has given every indication he wants the Bills to stay in Buffalo and I feel certain the Pegulas have no plans to move.

 

Nonetheless, the media will make stuff up. Just plain dumb.

Buffalo really isn't as small as the market research shows. Keep in mind that TV ratings are only based on the population area as it sits in the continental US. They purposely exclude Canada because it's another country. If you factor in southern Ontario areas like Fort Erie, Niagara Falls, etc. Buffalo is top 25 market. Canadians watch our TV, shop in our malls, and more importantly support our sports teams. But the TV ratings ignore that and we get the small market tab. Imagine how Boston would shrink if they excluded everything on one side of the Charles River.

Ralph used that excuse for years in order to get as many free handouts as possible. I remember he would say how we are always at a competitive disadvantage.
