Green Bay got a special pass to a one-time deal for ownership, why wouldn't they do it for market expansion? They allowed the Bills to play a game out of the country on the premise of market expansion, yet it's a bad idea now ? Couldn't the owners simply pass a ownership % exception just as easy as the tuck rule, it filled in a blank to cover up for the refs allowing the Pats to win didn't they ?

We're not out of the woods yet, no one stops Toronto for collectively over-paying & the trust asking for a one-time pass for expansion sake. Bon Jovi had a lot of conversations with Roger & the other owners, they might try something. They already approved one Toronto pass for games, why not another full-time ? Beware.

Green Bay did not get a special pass from the NFL.

There were no rules in place at the time that happened.

The NFL made that rule right after it happened so it would/could not happen again.

What?!?

The owners could make a % of majority ownership change for Bon Jovi, so he might only have to own 20% instead of 30%. This would allow Toronto to raise it's bid, raising the final franchise sale price. This benefits everyone except Pegula.

1.) Higher franchise sale values.

2.) Market expansion (Future) Which gets them new TV money.

3.) Ralph's estate gets more money

You said special pass.

That would imply the NFL made special allowances to accommodate Green Bay.

There was no special pass.

There was simply no rule in place for the NFL to enforce.

If you're the only one that gets something that makes you special, the pass refers to an opportunity to go somewhere. Combine them, you got a special pass. Why is this even being debated?

Changing the % for majority ownership benefits everybody except Pegula, so I see this being a possibility.

It is being debated because you are being obtuse.

There was nothing in place that the Packers needed a special pass for.

Now if the NFL let the Bills do the same thing that Green bay Did, that would be a special pass.

Wow, Skooby is so incoherent that he even got me to finally agree with better days on something.

I have a new game to play for Skoob's posts. It's called "Drunk or Short Bus." Just use the appropriate emoticon.

For example:

Why does it have to be 'or'?
