Many an NFL owner/team has raked its home city over the coals, temporarily raising taxes to build a new stadium that many of the people who helped pay for it can't afford to attend and agreeing to a deal that puts nearly all of the money in the owner's hands while placing most of the risk in the hands of the city or county.
Not surprisingly, many of those owners now want the Pegulas, who own the Buffalo Bills, to follow their lead.
One interesting story that came out of the now-completed NFL spring meetings comes via Vic Carucci of the Buffalo News, who writes that commissioner Roger Goodell, other league executives and other team owners believe it's "imperative" that the Bills replace Ralph Wilson Stadium with a new facility.
