The good news: it's a contractual obligation that creates an additional hurdle to anyone who might want to move the team.

The bad news: the old coot is still selling away our ****ing home games.

At least it's still only 1 game a year and not 2 or more as has been rumored in the past.

It sucks, BUT, it does make keeping the Bills in Buffalo closer to a sure thing.

The source said the extension will be “significantly” less lucrative for the Bills. As a result, NFL fans in Ontario and Western New York can expect ticket prices to be “significantly” lower. Rogers has received immense criticism for the high prices of tickets to Bills-in-Toronto games.

So, lower ticket prices = lower amount of money being paid to the Bills for the deal... With SkyDome holding 20,000 less people than RWS is capable, there comes a point where the Bills would make more money by simply holding the game at RWS...

Also, keep in mind, the Bills are looking for about $200 million to renovate a stadium that they will vouluntarily be leaving empty for 5 regular season sundays where it could be put to use... Kinda surprised that they would officially agree to anything with Toronto until the RWS lease was extended.

That's the issue the Rams are having with playing in London... Their lease requires them to play all of their home games in the Edward Jones Dome.

I agree.

I can handle the 1 game.
