Livin’ on a Prayer? Bon Jovi’s publicist refutes speculation of rocker’s pursuit of Bills

BUFFALO, N.Y. – Jon Bon Jovi’s publicist tells The Associated Press that while the New Jersey rocker is interested in becoming an NFL owner one day, he’s not currently pursuing the Buffalo Bills.

Ken Sunshine calls a report that Bon Jovi is actively involved in purchasing the Bills “preposterous.” Sunshine notes the Bills are not for sale and adds that Bon Jovi has too much respect for owner Ralph Wilson to consider engaging in discussions for buying the team.

Sunshine spoke by phone Monday, a day after CBSSports.com posted a story citing unidentified sources that Bon Jovi is among the parties positioning themselves to purchase the Bills after Wilson’s death. The 95-year-old Wilson has maintained he has no interest in selling the franchise during his lifetime.
