If this pans out, it's bad news for Buffalo because it puts us one step closer to the top of the list of candidates to move to LA.

Re: Report: Vikings have preliminary stadium deal
As much as I'd love to see the Bills stay in Western NY, if they have to move, I'd be absolutely thrilled to hear they moved out here to California... with them being closer, it would make me being able to see them soooo much more easy.www.gamersconspiracy.com - where gamers conspire

Even if they did keep the name it still wouldn't be the Bills. if a move to California is all you need, then become a Chargers, Raiders or 49'ers fan, it would be the exact same thing

But they also have a brutal stadium lease that is very expensive to break.
The Bills currently have no stadium lease after this season.
For a potential investor who would want to move the team, that makes us much more appealing.
Again, I'm not saying it's going to happen. Ralph has said he won't sell the team while he's alive, there's still time to get a lease done, and a new owner won't necessarily want to move the team. But if it were my money on the line and I didn't have any emotional attachment to a team as a fan, I'd certainly be taking a long, hard look at the Bills.

Re: Report: Vikings have preliminary stadium deal
The Bills aren't moving out of WNY, period.
No lease is unbreachable, it's just a matter of negotiating the right buy-out for the right dollar amount in the city's eyes. Considering that naming rights to the new LA stadium have been reported to be in the $700mil range, IMO it wouldn't be too difficult to pull off.YardRat Wall of Fame

I live in California too...I would hate the "Bills" more than any team in Professional Sports if they moved from Buffalo.The last time the Bills made the playoffs was 1999.

Originally posted by ddarylhow could you root for the team after it moves. They are the Bills because they are from buffalo, if they move ot LA, they would change the name and it would never be the Bills again.
Even if they did keep the name it still wouldn't be the Bills. if a move to California is all you need, then become a Chargers, Raiders or 49'ers fan, it would be the exact same thing

Originally posted by Jaydog57I heard about that, but I thought the lease was able to be broken upon change of ownership. Maybe not, though.

San Diego, Oakland, St. Louis & Jacksonville are the teams always mentioned as most likely.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit
