Who is George Gillett?

by Steve

Who is George Gillett (68) and no this has nothing to do with shaving? The Buffalo Bills version of Terry Pegula? He is a new name to me but apparently he was at the Buffalo Bills game tailgaiting with one Jim Kelly. Everyone remembers that famous (infamous?) tweet by lil Kelly right? I retweeted it 10/6 before he deleted his account ""all bills fans and what not next year might be a new year new season ans new ..... fill that in you got it metting um sat"" Buffalo Rising fills in some blanks if you missed it.

Per the all knowing Wikipedia the dude has been all over the sports map from hockey to neckcar to English "football" (read soccer) and made a ton of money flipping the Montreal Canadiens.

Evidently Tim Graham says he showed legit interest in buying the team four years ago.

Of course this could all be happenstance or a coincidence but Goodell sort of letting the cat out of the bag over the weekend saying Wilson has things in place, then a new name, and Chad Kelly, and him being at the game? The Terry Pegula thing evolved extremely quickly and seemed to come out of no where too. We'll see.
