this does not make sense. They have been functionality suspended since this came out a year and a half to two years ago. They were found innocent.

Tough question. How do you punish addiction in a way that helps the offender, his family and society? I think that around 50% of people in jail committed their offence while intoxicated, so this is a pretty big problem that society has been dealing with forever. Would firing Mair help him and his family or just purge the Sabres organization of a problem? No clue My friend's ex just crashed his motorcycle into a tree and got all broken up, like bad, and this was like his sixth DWI. He had no license and might kill someone next time. And he posts his injuries on FB like he is a war hero or something, total moron and its only a matter of time until he drinks and drives again. I don't think any punishment will deter a person who gets that intoxicated. Once you are drunk your ability to reason goes out the window, but obviously there needs to be serious consequences that hopefully will make them think before they start drinking. I'm sentencing Mair to a day in jail and a warning that if he does it again its ten days in jail.

To answer the OP question I think it sucks for his wife and kids the most. His kids especially had no idea what he did for a living and only saw him as dad. This kind of stuff is pointless.

https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/capitals-place-assistant-coach-mitch-love-on-leave-pending-investigation/ Washington just put assistant coach Mitch Love on leave.

I have a feeling if Buffalo beats Miami on Thursday that coach McDaniel might be nearing the end of his run.

IMO, EAP is underutilized. Wish more people took advantage of it.

Lots of things have been happening off of the coast of Yemen for a long time. Lots of missiles, UAVs, Drone strikes, etc. The USN has been engaging with the Houthi’s since about 2018 or so. The Royal Saudi Air Force has been involved in the fighting as well. The “orb” was split because maybe it was only partially blown up? They didn’t show enough video to indicate its eventual fate. It did not look “unfazed” either. Did it eventually fall into the sea? The video cuts out. Bigger question - what is ABC News/ Good Morning America (GMA) doing with this video and why would congress release something to the public in this manner? Seems like this would be classified and that makes it very odd that it would be released at all. Seems so odd that it could be fake, or perhaps setting the public up for something bigger? Or maybe we hit a Martian space ship when their cloaking device was turned off but thankfully their autonomous regenerative capability kicked in?

Might get tickets to Elbow & Oakenfold/Crystal Method shows.

Company time has nothing to do with the handling of substance abuse problems. One part of me gets angry and wants him fired for recklessly endangering children and possibly others. Another part of me knows that if he worked for a big corporation, or the government, he would have an option to call their Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and ask for help. Depending on circumstances his employment would be protected while he was put on a recovery plan of some sort. As a former Engineering Director for a large corporation that is what we did. I was introduced to this plan in about 2005 and have seen it help people, and I’ve also seen people fail and move on. It puts a strain on the organization to have to replace the employee and then possibly have to accommodate him later, but overall I thought it was a good benefit. I have no clue as to whether the Sabres provide this as an employee benefit. It’s a different business altogether.

It strangely appeared as though after it was struck three unknown objects deployed and followed in its wake.

They weren’t tested today. But it’s the. It question mark to answer this season

No, I disagree. It's not 100% he will lose his job over this, but it would be absolutely reasonable if he did for risking the lives of three children because he was drunk, as many others in the same circumstances would. The type of person I am is someone who is concerned for the safety of the children and others. The only person exposing the "type of person" they are is you.

For a 2nd.

Just be glad they didn't trade for Fedotov.

Allen, sorry.

2-0... with 0-2 struggling Miami here Thursday. Yes they have work to do but this is how you grab wins. Schedule gets harder later. Stack wins.

Something happen today that gave you that impression?

Glad to hear cook as long as the salary isn’t restricting us our secondary is suspect tho

Bosa was a difference maker today. I read a lot of people over the summer that wanted to move on from Cook. They are eating some crow. (Not saying this board necessarily, it was all around social media)

They should be well rested since the defense was only on the field for 21min and Josh was sitting in the 4th.

Seemed like an easy win for the Bills. The Jets fans were out of the game almost immediately. The Jets coach took no chances either. First time in the Allen era that they won a game and Allen did not run or throw for a TD. They need to stay focused and be ready for the Dolphin on Thursday. Short week to get ready but at least its a home game. GO BILLS!!!

The dejection on their fans faces looks familiar. I just can’t place it. 😏

Bills Win! 2-0 J-E-T-S Suck, Suck, Suck!
