Raccuia needs to shut the ***** up.

key details will be how much the NFL kicks-in, as well... curious to see if the Pegulas add a donation as they did paying for the entire arena at PSU (alma mater)...

Good I hate long waits

I guess he doesn’t like the idea of “public meetings”?  Who cares what he wants?  If it was so important to get the deal done by years end, why wait until the 60 day mark to make this proclamation?

Just Get er  Done. .

Because he was asked. But based on the article, this is a timeline both him and Hocul agree on. It's not really a conflict.

It'll be done by the end of the year.

We will see, but with the holidays just around the corner, unless the deal is close to being done already, I don't see it happening by 12/31.

Terry wanted Penn st to be d1 in hockey, he asked what it would take and he wrote the check

I think it is very close to being done.

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) – Gov. Kathy Hochul said Tuesday that she expects to address a new Buffalo Bills stadium in her annual budget, setting an expectation that lease and stadium agreements will be made by mid-January.

For what it’s worth, the wife and I took the tour of SoFi Stadium, home of the Rams and Chargers last week. It’s absolutely amazing! As we walked around I couldn’t help but think that one day the Bills will also get a new home, and these threads will morph into reviews of the new stadium’s amenities, sight lines, etc. Just like WNY, Southern California was sorely in need of a proper stadium. Bandaid after bandaid had been put on the historic, outdated, coliseum. With the opening of SoFi those days/years/decades are a distant memory now. I wish nothing but the same for WNY. Go Bills!

I felt this way when I saw a game at Safeco Field after many games at the Oakland Coliseum. Safeco is such a beautiful stadium. The Bills, no matter downtown or in OP, will have such a stadium where we are all proud of the end result. 

 

"All proud of the end result". Who am I kidding! This is TBD! There will be complaints! Oh yes, there will!

Instead of wanting a downtown site for a extra $700M ,  a roof in OP for a extra $300M would be my choice.

thats one end  of tax payyer # fleecing nfl corporate cronyism, then you have the monstrosity newer stadium where Jets play.  horrible 20 different ways-newer is not neccesarily better.  i hate vthe new yankee stadium too.  if we are building new stadium, it must be done right, with bills mafia tailgating considered imo.  its our ethos

There is a 3 letter acronym that will guarantee non-stop complaining for the life of the new stadium…PSL. 😉
