BUFFALO, N.Y. - Potential buyers of the Buffalo Bills have been given access to the sale book for the franchise, according to 2 On Your Side's Adam Benigni.
The book includes financial information on the franchise a potential buyer would need before making a bid.
In addition to the book, potential buyers were supplied with a non-binding "indication of interest" document due back to the team by July 29th, a source told Benigni.

So you can have this information & them have to give it back, like you just can't copy it.

The information is on a secure website.

Potential bidders have to have the letter of interest submitted within 30 days.

Let the Bills know who is REALLY interested in buying the team, move the process along.

So print doesn't work ? What type of book is this, wouldn't it be a file ?

I don't know if it can be downloaded & printed out or not, but everyone has had to sign a non disclosure form, to keep that information private.

It will be interesting to see if it stays private or gets leaked.

Let's be realistic. All of the guys with the money to buy the team are old. None of them are reading **** on a computer or tablet. It's gonna get printed.

Their lawyers are reading it is a more likely scenario.

Yeah, we should just have a higher-up call the bidders on the phone. We've never had a problem with that being hacked before.

typically, the docs go to a main repository website. You get a login id and password. Then you have access to all the documents. when you open the files in pdf, they put a watermark with your user name id underneath the text in diagonal or in the margins. it makes it impossible to leak the information.

think about the deals that are much larger than this that people don't hear until they are made public. people in the industry have sacrificed a lot to get there and paid to not leak the info. it isn't worth it to them. even for low level associates and such.

we'll hear when we hear.

I personally thought there would be more pictures. Numbers numbers and numbers, marching their little paths in columns, words words and words telling you this and that and whatever, then more numbers and don't you tell anyone.

Can't have any cheerleader pictures because we don't have any, reference and footnote the legal team on page 3, one picture of the old legal team guy sunbathing on page 3, a shot of Dareus' car and a tree, some decent coupons for Arby's, words and numbers and my Lawyer just sent in my opening offer of 75 dollars. I like to start off by lowballing to make other people show their hand while I work through the coupons.

Yup and on some deals the PDF's are locked from being able to be printed which is another security measure to prevent leaks.
