Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted June 28, 2020 Posted June 28, 2020 Circling back to the original concern of the thread, on the date of the 'infraction' was Mrs. P. wearing slacks or a skirt? The answer may elevate the situation to 'Threat Level Midnight'. *?
Nextmanup Posted June 29, 2020 Posted June 29, 2020 The fun will begin when she starts talking into that headset. She has already become a meddling, micro-managing menace in the Sabres organization. Only a matter of time before she is doing similar stuff with the Bills.

But I also know I couldn’t be less qualified at an NFL level to scout a college kid, or know a play call. And no matter how long I own a team I probably never will be. My only job as owner is to be in charge of grading pass/fail for the people who are qualified to make those decisions. Are we drafting well? Are we retaining talent? Are we acquiring quality FA? Do we manage game day we’ll? Yes! OK, as you were folks. No, time to find people who can do those things. I totally agree! As for the posters worried about meddling...........................Good Grief get a grip.

I actually think it is a valid concern. The Pegulas have a history of trying to micromanage. I don't think it will be immediate. It will come as franchise begins to peak and valley as all franchises do. When things start to trend down is when the Pegulas start to tighten their grip and make things worse. 1

I have no concern that they are micromanaging the Bills since Beane and McDermott have been here. The Sabres need a similar duo and until then unfortunately they have been too involved. I think that will end IF they can find a working combination.

This just in to Eyemissedit News: Despite uncertainties in the fracking and energy industries, Pegula Sports and Entertainment has announced the purchase of the highly entertaining TBD web site message boards from an entity known as SDS, for an obscene amount of money, perpetual use of an owner's box at whatever stadium the Bills use as a home field, and official title 'the guy who replaced Whaley AND Brandon'. Mrs. P. has been announced as Chief Moderator (and Lord High Executioner) of all TBD message boards. * (God, I love this place! ?) 2
Doc Posted June 29, 2020 Posted June 29, 2020 I’m just waiting for the report where it says that other owners have done this and then someone chimes-in with “what took Kim so long?’ 1

C.Biscuit97 Posted June 29, 2020 Posted June 29, 2020 Kim can do whatever she wants. ? 3rd sexiest nfl owner next to Jerry Jones and Mark Davis. ?

Just because you are in a good market doesn’t mean you win Super Bowls. The difference is that the Cowboys are competitive and they make lots of money. The Sabres aren’t competitive and they don’t make lots of money. Additionally, it seems like everyone makes the playoffs in hockey. It’s really difficult to be that futile for this long, without being at least somewhat to blame. I’m a causal hockey fan, and I’ve given up on following the Sabres at this point. The worst drought years of the Bills were never as bad as this Sabres futility imo. 1

We talk about things like playoffs and all this other stuff, but honestly those benchmarks don't matter as much as being competitive. If you have a team that can be fun and exciting and you catch some bad breaks and don't make the playoffs, fans will still care and watch. But when your team can't even compete for a spot, is going on long losing streaks, falls apart, and your basically out of the hunt 2 months before the postseason? People stop caring. That's what the Sabres are realizing. #1 picks lose their sheen when you are 14th in the conference by February. 1

Watkins90 Posted June 30, 2020 Posted June 30, 2020 On 6/26/2020 at 4:10 PM, First Round Bust said: what the difference between this and being in the same room with the GM, coaches, scouts, director of scouting-player personnel, etc on draft day ? which I think has been a more common occurrence thru the years...if I was a zillion-aire and owned the Bills I would build the trust so that I could do what Kim did once on a weekly basis as well as other things like watching game films and some meetings provided the participants felt comfortable. If I was the owner, I'd want the headset every weekend. I'd just be so fascinated by the decisions that are being made. I'd just be really cool and interesting to me.

As she spoke at the PSE company meeting, Pegula had a video presentation, which included the slide, “Pegula Family Goals.” There were three headers listed: “Win Championships,” “Sustainability” and “Return on Investment.” As she discussed return on investment, Kim Pegula said it also meant maintaining the family’s lifestyle Kim is 51, Terry is 69. Terry made his $ before knowing Kim. I sense problems arising within the entire organization.

I think Terry is more of a hockey fan and Kim is more of a football fan. Note that I mentioned "fan" so I hope her wearing a headset doesn't go beyond simple curiosity. 1
