I am from the economic empire that is Dallas, Texas. I have never been to Buffalo (plan on going to my first home game this upcoming season) so I have no idea what the economy is like. All I know is that our owner is old as hell and will be gone sooner than later. What happens to our team then? Does anyone know if we can actually afford to keep the BIlls? Is anyone in Buffalo rich enough to buy the Bills? If so do you think this person can actually make some money or is the economy that bad?

Someone please explain.................

it's not great, but it's not as bad as it's made out to be. people here (though I no longer live there) are very cynical... all you will hear with regards to WNY is negativity, but there are a lot of positives happening right now.

there are a few people with the capital to purchase the team. you are talking at least 7-800 million, easily. most likely it'd have to be a group of a few people... and i don't know if that's legal within the nfl structure nowadays.

It's definitely legal. Even the mighty dan snyder has minority partners.
