jimmy10 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Can anyone explain to me what Brandon's job actually entails, and how it impacts winning? Serious questions, I'd like to know. I hear a lot about him, good and bad, but I'm not sure what he actually does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest K-GunJimKelly12 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Boneheads ... Russ is business operations, and he does a good job. Your woes as a Bills fan have zero to do with the business end. Sure, in the past he had a failed stint at football ops. But that is past, by several years. He is more responsible for the drought than anyone else and you are going are going to insult people for wanting him gone. You are a !@#$ing tool.

He stages publicity stunts to sell tickets and has no interest in winning a Super Bowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 I would like to see Russ Brandon go, but the reality is he has the Pegulas trust and confidence, they have hugely expanded his role, he's not going anyplace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM57 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 (edited) I don't care how good of an advisor or marketer he is. I want anything with the stink of the last 17 years on it out of OBD. Edited May 7, 2017 by JM57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo86 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 I don't care about Brandon as long as we hire a GM with more sense than to turn to him for advice on football matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 He isn't the marketing guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy10 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 He stages publicity stunts to sell tickets and has no interest in winning a Super Bowl Right, so that's the "marketing" piece everyone always talks about. He's concerned with getting butts in seats. Seems like that's working well. I'm just trying to understand his connection to the product on the field.

JTO Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 (edited) As president of both clubs, he is doing a very good job. His job is solely to market the team and sell tickets nothing more. The GM on the other hand, scouts, handles the cap, and collaboratively works with the coach. Edited May 7, 2017 by JTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoTom Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 I don't care how good of an advisor or marketer he is. I want anything with the stink of the last 17 years on it out of OBD. Does that include OBD itself? What about the name "Buffalo Bills"? New stadium? New city? Where do you draw the line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 i still don't understand why people get so upset when the bills market their team. i'm going to go out on a limb and say it's pretty common around the nfl. Too bad this isn't in the "who's pissed off" thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear a lot about him, good and bad, but I'm not sure what he actually does.he runs the business side of both teams and is a managing partner. He represents the Pegulas at a lot of league meetings and is involved with their hotel, restaurants, etc. as they have a lot of interests and ventures. I would guess he wasnt much involved in creating the slogan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Pegula has said he's taking Russ' input as to who he should hire as GM he actually said that he may go to him with questions as needed during the process. Russ knows a lot of people in both leagues - he likely has more insight on some of them than the Pegulas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
