All that snow: What's it mean for Sunday?

Re: All that snow: What's it mean for Sunday?

I don't know. I have a bad feeling it's going to be moved somewhere else, which will be doubly worse.

I didn't think of that possibility. You may be right. Folks can cry about it being "unfair", but this is a unique situation. It's not like a tilt between the 5 - 5 Bills and the 2 - 8 Jets is going to have an impact on playoff seedings...

There's also equipment coming in from the rest of the state and personnel from the National Guard on the way.

I think Monday at the Ralph will be the call.

If they can't play on Sunday, I think Monday at the Ralph would be GREAT.

Perfect example why a Dome stadium is the only option.

Not necessarily. This IS a perfect example of why putting the stadium in Orchard Park, right in the middle of the snow belt, was a monumentally stupid thing to do.

Downtown Buffalo, according to reports, is getting a small fraction of what is falling in the Southtowns.

Go sell snow to Eskimos please.

Please...this storm could have just as well tracked further north. Perhaps you are not old enough to remember the political snot that dripped from a downtown stadium choice way back when.

It would be much easier to reschedule the game at the Ralph than to move it to a different location.

Tickets sold already would have to be refunded & then sold for the different location.

It is not like the roof caved in on the Ralph & the stadium can't be used.

A little snow needs removal is all.

finally get the game out of toronto and watch them move it back. i swear to god that will kill me.

Toronto doesn't make as much sense as Syracuse IMO. Syracuse has no more home games this year.

Hell, maybe getting on his old turf would get Marrone's head right.

OK. Fly up and join the shoveling crew.

The snow on the field is not the biggest problem, by far.

The 7 feet of snow in the area is a much bigger problem and a dome won't help that unless it is a damn big one

The roads will be fine.

Would there be snow in the stands or on the field if there was a Dome?

Would people who go to the games in December rather be comfortable watching the game or freezing their azz off?

Feel free to mail your personal $10,000 check for the Dome Fund...

Re: All that snow: What's it mean for Sunday?

There is no amount of snow a pile of heavy equipment can't move...but heavy equipment doesn't go into that stadium without wrecking the field. It's a logistical nightmare to move the amount of snow that is in that stadium right now. If more falls in the next couple days my money is on the game having to be moved.

They will be. Eventually

But that does not change the point that the bigger issue right now is 6 feet of snow with perhaps 2-3 feet more on the way

The state just found another $600+ Million in surplus.
Use it.

What about UB? Less than half the capacity, but nothing in the region's going to have the capacity of Rich.
