peterpan Posted October 28, 2022 Posted October 28, 2022 Where did the bills mafia name originate? I thought a group of fans had called themselves that for years, but I may be confusing that with the Bills Army group Quote

My wife who isn't on Twitter is in the CORE program through UB for business owners. Del came in to talk to the class. He was very well received, gave a ton of business knowledge to the class. My wife went up to introduce herself to him and thought him to be super pleasant. Edited October 28, 2022 by Draconator 3 2 Quote

I know there is a "weird" side to the whole Bills Mafia thing but I wouldn't equate any of that Shenanigans to him 1 Quote
WhoTom Posted October 28, 2022 Posted October 28, 2022 Two things: Around 4:10, he's talking about going to a game if you're from out of town and not being able to find a hotel room within 60 miles. I know some of the out-of-towners on TBD go to games and stay nearby. How difficult is it to find a room? Shortly after, he mentions philanthropy, but the only dollar figure he gives is $20k. Is he not aware of Oishei"s or Andy Dalton's foundation? Just those two combined amounted to over $2M, didn't they? 1 Quote

Any dude that starts a company and donates over $1.5 million in proceeds to charity is OK in my book. He could have chosen to keep that money for himself.

Mike in Horseheads Posted October 28, 2022 Posted October 28, 2022 Harry Smith does great pieces for NBC. Thanks for posting 1 Quote
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted October 28, 2022 Posted October 28, 2022 So what was the story about Adam Schefter banning bills fans? Hadn't hard about that. Quote
PonyBoy Posted October 28, 2022 Posted October 28, 2022 5 minutes of video is not nearly enough to cover the insatiable lust of this fan base for its entire existence! But we'll take what we can get.. Thanks OP. Quote

He could have chosen to keep that money for himself. Some people call that a marketing gimmick. I have a hard time calling it a gimmick since it does help charity. But I can also see what they’re saying - he uses it as a selling point to sell his shirts and it’s possible his company is no where near what it is now if not for the donation marketing. 2 hours ago, Jauronimo said: What do you think it is I’m not sure. It seems kinda split on Twitter, but more positive than negative. I’ve seen people question his reason behind the good things he does (ulterior motive kind of thing) and i’ve seen people be upset at him seeing himself as the father of BillsMafia. But i’ve also seen just as much (and more) defend him. 2 hours ago, Jauronimo said: and whats your opinion of Del? I have nothing against him. In fact, my Twitter account that gives away free Bills tickets was inspired by his donations. I mention him in the Twitter bio. . Edited October 29, 2022 by Einstein Quote
