Now that the dust has settled, personally I want the Bills to get to a playoff ASAP and SU to continue its post season success.  Why?  If we are truly NY's College Team, last time I checked Buffalo is also located in NY!

If both teams are successful, my viewpoint (win-win) would be the following:
1.  Strengthen the ties between the Bills organization & SU through DM & SS.
2.  SU can play games in the Bills stadium along with the Meadowlands - I prefer 6 home games in the Dome with a neutral 7th in those stadiums in those years.
3.  Ensure monies generated be reinvested into the football program and not redirected to pay for other sports (this was an issue in the past). Football first!
4.  Entice the Bills to relocate training camp to Manley (assuming no NCAA issues) - have Bills invest in Manley updates (medical, weight room) and fund the "Marrone - Brandon" IPF through donations by them
5.  Get Pinstripe Bowl to follow SU to ACC so we play in Yankee Stadium from time to time.
6.  Regarding conference realignment, it makes SU have that much more of a case that we truly are NY's College team.
7.  From outside looking in, this just looks like plain old good business for both organizations - more Syracuse people watching & going to Bills games and more Buffalo people watching & going to SU games.

These are just some of the ideas "that could work" but it will take strong leadership & vision by both organizations to make some or all of the above to happen.  The foundation is there - but first things first - both DM & SS must win!

Off to work as I am already going to be late.
