"I think it would make sense," said Kelly, who joined ex-Bills Thurman Thomas, Andre Reed, Steve Tasker and Oakville native Steve Christie at a well-attended kickoff rally at Dundas Square last night. "I've done my homework. By putting a stadium there, it would be 45 minutes closer for Canadians coming to games than it is to go to Orchard Park right now."
So how do you love your blue eyed son now !!!
Personally i think its a decent idea. The one thing you see on TV when the Bill are playing primetime is Niagara Falls. Rarelly do they spend anytime showing Buffalo, and for good reason, not much to show off.
Also with the embracing of Rochester and central NY as well as Toronto, it moves the travel distance a bit closer for these other regions. I know it screws up travel plans from many others, but the idea is definitely one that is going to help keep the Bills in the area... Even Jimbo knows changes must be made.

As long as I'm involved, the team will stay where it is," Kelly said. "But the bottom line is, it will come down to the power of the bank account. Whoever the next owner of the team is will have control.
"I will say this. I've already been contacted by a number of people who said they would pay anything to keep the team in Buffalo." Given the recent air of gloom and doom lingering over tonight's Bills-Pittsburgh Steelers exhibition contest at the Rogers Centre concerning a perceived lack of interest and inflated ticket prices, the rally last night was a rousing success, with hundreds of enthusiastic fans attending.
