Mike in Horseheads Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) Each NFL team, including the Buffalo Bills, received $372 million from the league's national pot that is divided among the 32 teams in 2022, according to Front Office Sports. The majority of the payment – $249 million – comes from the NFL media rights deals that bring in more than $10 billion annually and will continue to rise. The per-team distribution represents an increase from $343.75 million for each team in 2021 and it has grown from $244 million per team for the 2016-17 fiscal year. https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/heres-how-much-the-bills-and-each-nfl-team-made-in-national-revenue-in-2022/article_12e06eac-2195-11ee-b344-c7e5ba5fed85.html Edited July 15, 2023 by Mike in Horseheads 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 The $1.4B the Pegulas paid was seen as a gross overpayment at the time. Not so much anymore. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's pry doubled his money by now. ...So any of us could do that too if we had a spare couple of billion. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the true benefit of NFL ownership has nothing to do with annual income anyway. The real money to be made here is when you buy low, then sell the franchise down the road for way more than you paid for it. You are right, Pegula "overpaid" at $1.4 billion. He hasn't owned it THAT long....and now it is valued at $3.4 BILLION DOLLARS! Nevermind a few hundred million per year! That's pocket change! The dude has now made TWO BILLION DOLLARS for having the fun of getting to control an NFL football team and sit in the owners box and schmooze everyone in the league that's worth schmoozing. This is why the rich get richer....the more you have, the more you get.....FOR FREE. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sports franchises only increase in value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Since1981 Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 It’s also why NYS/ERIE or any public shouldn’t pay for these stadiums. I agree with us doing for bills. But they’ve got a monopoly and can afford to pay for the monopoly infrastructure. Not unlike utilities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills!Win! Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 (edited) And I thought I was doing well because I just barely cracked 6 figures last year (which ironically, $2000 of that was spent on 2 bills games) Edited July 15, 2023 by Bills!Win!

Mr. WEO Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 That's 148 million more than the salary cap this year. It's always been a free money league, if you can afford the entry price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
