WILSON TO STRAIGHTEN OUT THE ILLS THAT PLAGUE THE BILLS

12.11.1997

          Bills Owner Ralph Wilson "promised" to make "aggressive
     changes this offseason," according to Leo Roth of the
     Rochester DEMOCRAT & CHRONICLE.  With the future of the
     Bills in Western N.Y. "tied to a new lease that's contingent
     on the sale of luxury seating, a winning product is now more
     critical than ever."  The Bills have had just four sellouts
     this season, and 35,000 tickets remain for this Sunday's
     game against the Jaguars.  Wilson: "People shouldn't lose
     faith or look upon the team negatively.  Fans are down,
     sure.  So am I" (Rochester DEMOCRAT & CHRONICLE, 12/10).
