Getting it - probably the same way Green Bay did: an industrial city with a strong fan base back in teh days when cities were much smaller than today.
Keeping it is a bigger question, since Toronto is interested in stealing the Bills away.
Actually, with that highly appropriate name, they should move south and become the second team in DC. ;)

It doesent help that theyre in the basket case State of New York, either, with unbelievable tax structure. Upstate looks like Siberia , in the Winter.
