NEW YORK -- The Buffalo Bills will play in Toronto on Dec. 7 against Miami as part of an effort to expand their market to Canada.


This marks the first time the Bills will play during the regular season in Toronto, about a 1½-hour drive from Buffalo. The game was one of the highlights of the NFL schedule released Tuesday.

Wow...they get our biggest divisional rivalry game. Seems a little excessive.

This game means nothing to most Canadians. Such bullshit.

[Sabres244]

The rivalry is dead. They also got the worst team on our schedule.

Not for me it isn't.

[Sabres244]

If not for Frey Electric the Miami game doesn't even sell out last season. Smart move to put it there.

[Mr. Lahey]

I think alot of Toronto fans will scalp their tix to Buffalo people for the game at a hefty profit.

It being the Dolphins, our biggest rival, will mean big $$$ for Toronto fans who could care less.

I'm with 244. Couldn't care less about the Dolphins.

How can you not care about this:

I don't know. The Dolphins are like the crippled kid at school, and who would get their jollies from beating up on the crippled kid? Miami just isn't relevant.

[slowpokemcgee]

Becuase they were the school yard bully for 20 years and getting revenge feels sweet.

Not when I was roaming the earth. :tred::beeshmo:

Oh man. The Dolphins in December in a dome? Fuck that.

[Officer Joseph J Whitestick]

I hate how the NFL is taking nature out of the game. I hate domes they ruined football. I want another ice bowl or something. I love watching games played in the muddy,cold weather.

I remember every one of those losses, but ya know what ? 244 and CJI are correct : The rivalry is dead. The games do nothing for me now. In the early 90's it was great, but no more Shula, no more Marino, no more Cox, no more Jimmy Johnson = no more rivalry. I seriously don't care that it's the Dolphin game that's being played up there.

I heard a bunch of people on WGR today calling in that the NFL and the Bills had this planned. One guy even said "they're playing up in Toronto with a rival to get fans interested in our team so when the game sells out, the city of Toronto can say 'see, we can sell out Bills games against their greatest rival so we can sell out all 16 if they move up here' ". Bullshit. ANY NFL game played up in Toronto would sell out. The Cardinals, the Texans, the Raiders, the Dolphins, whatever, they'd ALL sell out in Toronto.

[Officer Joseph J Whitestick]

I think the new rivalry for us is the Pats.

[m76]

a rivalry when we never beat them?

[Sabres244]

I don't think the Bills have a true "rival"

[Officer Joseph J Whitestick]

a rivalry when we never beat them?

This year that changes.

[Toughsy]

Dumbest idea ever.
