    If Trump bought the Bills & someone offered him double in a few years, would he sell?

    If Trump bought the Bills for a billion or so & someone offered him ~$2 Billion a few years later, do you think he'd sell the team ?

    No, but you can bet your ass that if someone built him a new stadium in LA, he'd move them faster than you can say "hairdo."

      If he made 10 dollars and got 5 years of press from it, he'd sell in a week, then keep reminding everyone how he saved us and it wasn't his fault Boise bought the team with an overwhelming offer and that's just how business works.

      Well this is how business works, The Donald, Golisano and or Pegula won't let you and you need to run for President again to remain relevant and maybe someone will let you buy a semi pro bocce ball team in Alabama. Go away, shoo....

          How stupid is it to wonder if given the keys how Trump would drive the car versus other potential owners ?

            I can tell you the only guy that wouldn't is Pegula.

              I'll tell you what, if Trump (or anyone) bought the team, had it make the playoffs and truly compete therein for years 2-5 of his ownership, and then sold the team for more, I would trade that over another owner that came in bought this team and left this current front office in place and allowed it to be run like it's been run on Wilson's watch.

              As has been said, it's better to burn out than to faaaade awaaaay.

              I'll take 5 seasons of competent ownership over 20 more seasons of this garbage any day of the week.

              You shroud your childish approach in a vale of pompous, intellectual garbage in an attempt to look smart and "real". You over-analyze even minute points and manipulate statistics to fit your negative view of the team. Again, to feel good about yourself and to protect from getting hurt.

              Of course, the criticisms are obviously from someone who has no understanding of the team concept or what it takes to excel at athletics.

              The true "realist" understands that they have no control of what happens on the field or behind the closed doors at One Bills' Drive, so they do the prudent thing for a spectator. They enjoy the games on Sunday with family and friends, cheer for their team and realize that it's just entertainment.

              "I was an integral part in the drafting process of EJ Manuel," Whaley said Thursday on NFL Network's Total Access. "I was the person that handled the draft process and setting up the board."

              "We are committed. I want you to believe me when I say that," Whaley said of building around the second-year quarterback, per The Buffalo News. "I always tell you guys that I'll never say never because I don't want to paint myself in a corner, but when I do say something, I do it and I mean it and I try to fulfill it."

              "We believe the addition of Sammy is going to be instant impact, not only to our quarterback, but to what our offensive coordinator can come up with game-plan wise and how defenses attack us," Whaley said.

                Of course he would. Pegula probably would also.

                  He'd sell so fast his toupee would still be mid air where he was standing.

                    Pegula isn't as much of a capitalist as Trump, so I don't think he sells while he's alive.

                      Why is this, 'friggin stupid?'

                      I think it's a good question.

                      I don't think Trump would sell for a billion dollar profit because his legacy would forever be tarnished.

                      He doesn't want to go down in NFL history as the villain who stole the Bills from Buffalo.

                      Trump is also smart enough to know that the team will be worth much more in another short 10 years.

                        Maybe its been answered here already (haven't checked every thread), but doesn't Trump own a few Casino's or partial ownership? If so would he be allowed to own an NFL team?

                          He sold all his interest in the casinos, he's clear.

                              - it's a stupid question because trump isn't a real contender to win the bid for the team.
                              - it's a stupid question because none of the other 31 other teams have flipped the team for profit. these guys like the cache of being an owner. and frankly once in, if you get out, you never get in again.
                              - It's a stupid question because trying to figure out what trump would do if he somehow got the team is impossible. he's a class one idiot. he's gone bankrupt more times than you've eaten wings in your lifetime.
