Goodell: Bills to stay in Buffalo

Roger Goodell has dismissed fears that the Buffalo Bills may relocate to Toronto. He says the franchise's future is more secure with the extra revenue it generates from playing a game north of the border and that the Bills will be in Buffalo a long time.
The organizers in Toronto want to showcase the city as being capable of hosting a permanent NFL franchise.
Wilson, 89, says he doesnt plan to sell or relocate in his lifetime but no one knows exactly what the provisions of his will are. Apparently his family shows no interest in running the team.

ESPN - Goodell: Bills franchise to stay in Buffalo 'a long time' - NFL

On one hand you have the organizers in Toronto saying, "Hey this would be a great city to have an NFL team to make lots of money."
On the other, Goodell says the Bills arent going anywhere.
Wilson, meanwhile, says he's not relocating them but Wilson is 89. Furthermore he isnt saying what will happen after he dies.

What do you think? Are they moving or not? Will Goodell be able to keep them in the U.S.A.?

Re: Goodell: Bills to stay in Buffalo

At age 89 I'm just guessing that he may be on the downhill side of his life, although I plan to live to be at least 238 !!

Re: Goodell: Bills to stay in Buffalo

He could die this year. He is 89 years old. I hope it doesn't go to Toronto. Buffalo needs a team.

Re: Goodell: Bills to stay in Buffalo

I don't get it. What is Goodell's will supposed to change about the Bills staying in Buffalo? Is his will going to be some fiendish revenge scheme against Bills fans by saying "upon my death the Bills organization will move to Toronto as soon as humanly possible."
