    I'd like Trump to own the Bills.......

    He had ownership interest in the houston gamblers when Jimbo was there and he obviously has massive connections to huge money. Trump could put his version of the "big-time" on the Bills and actually raise the bar all around Buffalo with a aggressive commercial approach / casino mix. Obviously Trump is able to bring all those aspects to the area and would put the Bills in a "Big time" arena. Jerry Jones cannot match up with the Don, nor could anyone currently in the league.

    When Trump talks, people listen, so keep your fingers crossed.

    He should be able to leverage the buy against his real-estate holdings. I'm sure he's doing extremely well in this market.

      He's Donald Trump, when isn't he rolling towards glory?? Ralph is about as exciting as watching Bird's crap.

        when he's been putting his businesses in bankruptcy in the early 90's. i think he was close to calling personal bankruptcy as well at one point.

        if he can step in and keep them in buffalo, great. But don't forget that Trump's medling in the USFL sped up the demise of the league. he's a two headed beast. he could save us, but he could screw us as well.

        i would hope if trump is involved he's just a smaller player and that someone else like Rich or Jacobs was the majority owner.

          No way in hell Trump would buy the Bills, much less keep us here. He is a business man and it would be bad for his business. The only way we stay in Buffalo down the road is if a group of investors who LOVE the Bills buy the team.

              He doesn't have enough money by himself to buy an NFL franchise.

                Between him and his friends combined, they could buy Buffalo outright for cash. Trump also has his way of putting his spin on things and could film his TV show here and do all kinds of cool stuff.

                  I have met with and talked with him extensively. Excellent mind and brilliant clear thinking is a way to describe him, very intense and intelligent as well.

                    Would your definition of screw be missing the playoffs for all this century or selling the team to the highest bidder upon death?? That's our current situation.

                        Trump's best skill is self-promotion. If he buys the Bills, the story will be more about him than the team -- similar to Cuban but an order of magnitude or two worse. If he's the last resort to keep the team in Buffalo, fine. Otherwise, I'd really prefer another owner(s).

                        Besides, Trump is way too pompous to buy a team like Buffalo. I also seriously doubt Trump has anywhere near enough liquid assets to buy the team outright.

                          no doubt, the current situation sucks, but i'm saying that trump may bring his own issues into this. Trump never comes off as a guy like golisano who wanted to do good for the community and let someone else run the show.

                          i don't think trump is a football guy, but i would fear he'd be like a dan synder who is willing to spin his wheels for years as the team stinks. True, we are already there and maybe some high profile things would be a nice change of pace.

                          but i'd really like to see the larger group of investors running to kelly's tune. kelly has embraced buffalo. i think he wants the best for the area and has personal feelings invested like the fans.

                          trump, i don't think is willing to be a team guy when he's always been a me guy

                              That douchebag does not have enough money to buy a professional sports franchise.

                              If he did, his pompous ass would've purchased one already solely for the attention he'd get.
