Re: CFL Commish thinks NFL team coming to Toronto
Sounds like we'll take the CFL's Argo's place and replace our Miami rivalry with the Hamilton Ti-Cats.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit -

How did you come to that conclusion by reading the attached article? If anything it insinuates that it will be a team other than the BillsOriginally posted by Night TrainComment

Unlike everyone rushing to bury us, I'll enjoy the team and let time play itself out. Every news article shouldn't trigger a knee jerk reaction. It's all speculation.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for witComment

Re: CFL Commish thinks NFL team coming to Toronto
The Jags and the Vikings need new homes.
The Bills will be fine in Buffalo with a consortium of local owners, including Jack Kemp as President and Jim Kelly as Director of Football Operations.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Re: CFL Commish thinks NFL team coming to Toronto
I do think Jimbo is VERY SERIOUS about keeping this team here, and I'll go as far to say he may get some kind of deal done with Wilson before he dies.
If the team goes totally on the open market, I think its over for buffalo.Comment

Re: CFL Commish thinks NFL team coming to Toronto
Per PFT:
TORONTO THINKS THE BILLS ARE COMING by Michael David Smith
Stephen Brunt of the Toronto-based Globe and Mail reports that Canadian Football League Commissioner Mark Cohon is working on "the beginning of a strategy for co-existence" with the NFL, which increasingly looks like it wants to establish more of a presence in Toronto.
According to Brunt, Cohon is the first CFL commissioner ever to acknowledge the possibility of the NFL playing in Toronto.
"You have an owner in Ralph Wilson in Buffalo who has said, 'When I die, my estate will sell the franchise,' " Cohon said. "You have the Bills interested in marking Toronto as part of their territory. ... So I think there are all of these things lining up that indicate it could happen. I'm not sticking my head in the sand. That would be the worst thing for the CFL commissioner to do. So I think there's a real potential."
Brunt writes that the Bills are "coming to Toronto to play two games a year starting next fall," but no definitive plans along those lines have been announced.
NFL officials and Bills owner Ralph Wilson have, however, expressed an interest in seeing the Bills play home games in Toronto, which is about 100 miles from Buffalo.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has said that Wilson's proposal to play one home game per season in Toronto for the next five years has been met with general acceptance from Wilson's fellow owners.Comment

- All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
- There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host. Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
