In an effort to cut down on confusion and centralize the discussion, we are accumulating everything related to Terry Pegula, Jon Bon Jovi, and the sale of the Buffalo Bills into this story on Tuesday's initial bids, as well as our months-long StoryStream covering the entire issue. Those are the spots to look for the latest on the sale of the team.
