The Long Island Buffalo Bills...

[STAMPY]

How's that sound? Would you still be a fan, they would keep the buffalo in the name

[daquixxers]

WTF - where do you get this **** from?

It sounds ridiculous. There might be some ownership and estate tax issues when Ralph passes, but how does the NFL justify moving a franchise with the kind of fan base that the Bills have?

The traffic getting to and from the game would be awful. No way this happens.

[STAMPY]

it was reported in newsday. they have a website newsday.com I'd think anything on paper would be on the site. We get traffic for islander games at nassau. I think they were gunna expand Hofstra Stadium

[Gunzlingr]

They leave buffalo, and I am done with them.

Tell that to Cleveland and Baltimore- two of the biggest most loyal bases ever.


The ridiculous part of this thread is the Long Island part. NY has 2 teams now that share a stadium, and with the blackout rules NY already gets screwed by losing a game on TV most weeks.

Right - you have a bridge in Long Island to sell?

BREMERTON, Wash. - It takes Bruce Roe 30 minutes of twisting, tweaking and hairspraying to get his 10-inch Wild West mustache competition-ready. Such is life for those who competitively cultivate their facial hair.

I would no longer follow them and find it very hard to follow NFL football ever again.
