Now that the Pegulas own both of Buffalo's pro sports teams (and our hearts), is there any reason they can't make "One Buffalo" a real thing aesthetically? When I was a kid, the Bills and the Sabres both had blue as their primary color. And as far as I could tell, it was the *SAME* royal blue. And that was cool because everyone had blue jackets, jerseys, t-shirts, etc., and it all basically matched. We accidentally were "One Buffalo." Then the late 90's happened. The Sabres lost their minds and switched to black, red, and silver. The Bills waited until 2002 and then they decided they wanted to be navy blue and red and silver and royal blue (and terrible). A few years, and one Banana Slug, later the Sabres moved back to their original logo (sort of) and to a midnight blue and gold. The Bills mercifully made royal blue their primary again and relegated navy blue to the outline of the numbers. Wouldn't it be cool if the two teams adopted an identical blue as their primary? And the City of Buffalo essentially adopted an official color? We already have a head start with our city flag, which is a "bright" navy blue (could easily pass for royal blue): (Yes, this would also look awesome as a shoulder patch for both teams.) This would be a really minor change for the Bills and a huge improvement for the Sabres. I'm tired of the Sabres looking like the Night's Watch on my HDTV. And it'd be cool to have our sports teams match again for the first time in ~20 years.
