    NOAA (National Oceanic And Atmospheric Administration) will announce the Buffalo Bills have become the first National Football League team to be a StormReady Supporter. To achieve this status, the Buffalo Bills met rigorous guidelines, which include developing severe weather safety plans, actively promoting severe weather safety through awareness activities and conducting safety training in an effort to better protect fans and spectators of events at Ralph Wilson Stadium.

    Sort of surprising...with recent events, you'd think some of those southern teams would be a "storm ready supporter."

    Toronto is not on the list. It seems they aren't as good the Pioneer Telephone Cooperative in Kingfishe, Oklahoma.
