Some of us believe he has made football decisions in the past. That's another debate altogether. My point is that it certainly isn't happening anymore or ever will again. This makes Brandon quite secure in his job. He's the marketing guy now. He doesn't have a greater role anymore. That makes firing him pointless.

He is involved. Believe me!

Fire him for what, stupidity that happened a decade ago, or the the conspiracies that you whiners have invented since he moved on from being an unwilling GM?

 

The dude makes money for Mr. Pegula. That's what his job is. That's a job he is very good at. The fact that you're butthurt, and refuse to listen to anything other than idiotic conspiracies does not make him bad at his job.

Its so hard to make money in the most popular sport in America and in an area with one the most loyal fan bases.

 

Us conspiracy theorists were right at Whaley.

Can you give us some first hand proof? Maybe your dealer is Russ's dealer?

I don't need it. Just like I told you Whaley was not in control of the roster and would be fired.

He can't even run your country, doubt adding another one will make things easier for him.

Agreed. I was being facetious but really don't want to get into any kind of political discussion here. It was a joke, and not a slam at Canada but at him.

You crybabies were right about Whaley how? Please, I want to hear your revisionist insight.

So... we can't just take some random internet nobody at his word anymore?

Yeah. People wrongly equate winning with success at running a major sports franchise. Sabres attendance this year? Right in the middle of the pack. And the Bills are very profitable; it would actually be hard not to make a lot of money with an NFL franchise, but it's not as if the bodies have stopped coming. Again, the Bills - a very small market team (unless you throw in Toronto, which you really shouldn't unless you have like a .20 factor or something) - fell right in the middle of the pack. So on the "do his teams win?" account, he's a miserable failure. On the "does he make his bosses money?" account, he's a double winner.

Is it his job to put a winner on the field though? I would put that under the job of the GM/Head Coach/Players. Thats like saying that the Head coach is responsible for making the owner money

I know, just had to take the shot

Meaning no offense, but can you offer any information (source, your own role etc) to bolster the credibility of what you say? IOW why should we believe you?

It's on the internet. You can't put anything that's not true in the internet. Edited by The Wiz

Keep on whining cause he's not going anywhere, you can thank him for the NHL combine, the world Juniors, the NCAA tourney, etc coming to Buffalo. He's damn good at his job

If it's so easy to make money in the NFL, why do teams even have marketing departments?

Oh, so you're going to bluster than shrink away when challenged.

 

I see.

A family friend went to college with Russ and is still good friends. He told me a couple years ago, Russ still has a lot of pull on football decisions.
