[JetNation]

Bills owner Ralph Wilson made his case Tuesday for Buffalo to play an annual regular-season home game in Toronto, and now it's up to NFL owners to determine whether there's potential north of the border.</img>

This WILL be a done deal. Too many Benjamins riding on it for it not to happen. The Bills fans are generally concerned about losing their beloved Bills down the road. The TV market here is just waaaay too small and shrinking each year. Having the team play a game a year in Toronto is much more exceptable than losing the franchise. Even if the Bills were to move to Toronto down the road, this would still be only a 2 hour drive from Buffalo and easier to take than say having them move to LA like the Clippers did.

Thai, it's what should have happened all along. Come on, how long have I been touting that Wilson should move the team to Toronto & take all of the luxury of having a stronger TV market & Fan base that will bring both revenue & the removal of the BLACKOUT system that has plagued that team for the last 4 years.

I think he had a moment of clarity that may not last!

I think playing a game or two in Toronto is the only way the Bills stay in Buffalo.

Bills fans should look at this as a positive. Toronto is a fun city. Going up there for a game would be a blast.
