NFL team, Buffalo Bills has agreed in principle to a one-year lease extension with the Erie County that would allow the team to continue playing at Ralph Wilson Stadium next season.

County executive Mark Poloncarz announced the agreement Wednesday after Bills CEO Russ Brandon raised concerns about the lack of progress in negotiations to reach a long-term deal, and with the current lease set to expire July 31. Poloncarz said the agreement was reached after he and Brandon spoke on Monday.

“Nobody wants to have a gun at their heads thinking if we don’t get it done by the end of the season then what’s going to happen,” Poloncarz said. “By doing an extension, it guarantees the Bills are here for the full 2013 season, and it gives us ample time during the next 18 months or so to continue these negotiations.”

The announcement came after Brandon went public by informing The Buffalo News that negotiations had stalled in a story published Wednesday morning. Brandon then repeated his concerns in an interview with The Associated Press.

Über 1.000 Gäste aus Management, viagra buy | Marketing, ampoule Medien und Agenturen feierten am 13. März im Düsseldorfer Musical-Theater „Capitol“ die Verleihung des Marken-Award 2012 im Rahmen der „Night of the Brands“. Während Ergo, for sale Salamander und Rotbäckchen mit den Preisen „Beste Neue Marke“ „Bester Marken Relaunch“ sowie „Beste Marken-Dehnung“ ausgezeichnet wurden, erhielt Fußballmeister Borussia Dortmund einen Sonderpreis. Damit würdigte die Jury die Leistung des Vereins, die Marke BVB als Erlebnis zu inszenieren – über den sportlichen Erfolg hinaus. Ex-Bundesfinanzminister Peer Steinbrück glänzte bei der Verleihung mit einer scharfsinnigen Laudatio auf den Sonderpreisträger BVB.

Die Sieger des diesjährigen Marken-Award wurden von einer hochkarätig besetzten Jury in einem aufwändigen, mehrstufigen Bewerbungsverfahren ermittelt. Die Jury befand, dass es Borussia Dortmund gelungen ist, den Verein als „das intensive Fußballerlebnis“ zu inszenieren – und das nicht nur in sportlicher Hinsicht, sondern auch in der Markenführung mit dem Claim „echte Liebe“. Die Jury vergibt einen Sonderpreis deshalb, weil die wirtschaftliche Wiedergeburt des 2005 fast insolventen Vereins so eng mit dem sportlichen Erfolg verbunden ist, dass sich die Markenleistung nicht herausrechnen lässt. Unstrittig ist jedoch nach Ansicht der Jury, dass die feinfühlige neue Markenstrategie ihren Anteil daran hat, die Fans hinter dem BVB zu versammeln und dem einzigen deutschen börsennotierten Fußballverein etwas wirtschaftliche Unabhängigkeit vom sportlichen Erfolg zu verschaffen.
