Bills casually sabotaging local market

If you read our season preview of the Bills earlier, you might be aware that we expressed concerns over the future plans for Buffalo in New York state. With the Buffalo market looking increasingly stifled, and the economy in the area still suffering, the team's future is in some doubt, more so than any other franchise in fact.

In one of those 'moves that make you go "hmmmm"', the Bills have gotten rid of their local cleaners. Of course, let's not JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS here, but it's another shot in the eye of a local economy that can ill afford it. Of course, let's not get started on Michigan's economy, or the fact that this is a small drop in the financial ocean...

Regardless of that, it's a tactless manoeuvre on behalf of the organisation, especially in light of the public's recent show of support. Bills fans recently snapped up tickets at the highest rate since 1993, in the middle of one of the best streaks in franchise history.
