  1. you already know what's #1 ..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFbjbed-hEA
  2. and the retread coaching carousel continues - even the NHL is not immune to it
  3. I wouldn't go that far with the huge problem comment. Barkov is in his head.
  4. this team needs some R & R in the worst way. Need to nail the fundamentals before any talk of another 10 game win streak.
  5. Not only do I hate the Leafs but I hate the NHL for scheduling us to play at home vs. Toronto the night after a tough roadie vs. the Preds
  6. despite my screen name (which I will be changing, as I no longer live in ATL, but in Sarasota, FL), I am looking to see if anyone has an extra ticket and/or is planning a meet-up prior to the 11/29 game @ TBL. Please let me no, thanks all.
  7. You are most welcome. When you have more time to play with, def check them out. FYI, the owner is very creative/suggestive when it comes to mixing and matching stuff. My experience is that he has a keen eye & ear in terms of what you are looking for.
  8. 2 other benefits: supporting an independent local business, & getting very personalized, knowledgeable service you won't find buying off the rack or at a chain store.....a definite value-add. If he doesn't have exactly what you are looking for, he is always getting new stuff in and can tell you exactly what & when he is getting. He almost always seems to have something unique I have never seen before.
  9. I would check out Get Dressed on Elmwood. I know the owner, great guy and he has a wide range of pricing in line, I think, with what you're looking for. He is an old-school clothier who will do the measurements and free tailoring to boot. He has great connections in NYC and buys his stuff in the Garment District....b/c his is a small shop, you're not paying for overhead. His pricing is very fair and quality very good relative to price - I have bought alot from him over the years. http://getdressedbuffalo.com/
  10. just curious, what do you mean by "cumulative" in the context of torn knee ligaments?
  11. Things that are AWESOME... yesterday's unis for the Winter Classic. Love the "NY" under the crest. They need to strongly consider making them permanent.
  12. Thanks for the welcome back! In addition to posting here after an extended AWOL, how about me moving back to Buffalo recently after a 27 year post-college expatriation? Yesterday was the first day during that timeframe I drove in any kind of snow. It was time to come home and help the parents.
  13. being an SLU alum, I'd love to see him land here
  14. this is the analysis I have been looking for, thanks
  15. and then there's this - more safe spaces needed? http://heatst.com/culture-wars/yale-professor-cancels-exam-for-snowflake-students-distraught-at-election-result/
  16. Many thanks to Nova Scotia - I am a big believer in the the goodwill shown here and from all corners through prayer. And you have mine, SwampD
  17. thank you kindly Mr. Flagg... thank you kindly Mr. Swamp...
  18. sorry all, I have been AWOL for a long while due to a divorce in process, being diagnosed with PTSD, losing my job, and then seeing my parents declining rapidly back home in BUF to the point where I had to take my Dad to buy Depends.....not a pretty sight nor a real good time in my life. But I missed you all. Wanted to shared something I posted on my FB page this AM in the spirit of all of us here recognizing we have an opportunity for improvement across the board: "while listening to the sermon at Mass this past Sunday, I was so impressed by the messaging of my Church's Monsignor, who called on all Catholics, no matter which candidate they would be voting for, to lead by example in an effort to heal, reconcile, and forgive after a hugely divisive & polarizing campaign which brought out the worst in a lot of people. Rather than gloat I am taking this message to heart - and I encourage it to be acted upon by people of all faiths (...and those who don't profess any faith). We are all in this together. For me this means humility and serving others less fortunate." Peace out, and go Sabres tonight !
  19. wonderful story, and one of the BEST thread I've ever seen here. I hope you all know the story of Matt Urban, who I am almost ashamed to admit I did not know of until I visited his memorial plaque at the Buffalo Naval Park on 7.30.16. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Urban (please read in its entirety...!!) Folklore has it that Audie Murphy was the most decorated/recognized combat soldier in WW2; that's patently false, and it's only because Hollywood chose to make him the subject of more than 40 feature films and one television series. I'm proud, as a Buffalonian, beyond belief, of Lt. Col. Matt Urban.....
  20. I just chatted with my cousin on FB as she spends her summers at the family home in Vastogirardi, about 2 hours NNE of Rome. Everything is OK thankfully, though the town of Amatrice got wiped out.
  21. PLEASE keep thoughts & prayers to those in central Italy affected by this earthquake...I have family in Rome & am desperately awaiting word from my cousin that everything is OK..... Lots of Italian-Americans in Buffalo (.....or just "American" as some here would say), so this hits home for many http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/E/EU_ITALY_QUAKE?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2016-08-23-23-46-05 https://ca.news.yahoo.com/magnitude-6-4-quake-hits-italy-near-perugia-015222205.html http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3755722/Italy-rocked-6-1-magnitude-earthquake-centered-near-capital-Rome.html
  22. not exactly on the same level as stealing from HR Pufnstuf, but what's your spin on this? (.....from the AP, not Breitbart..... :flirt: ) http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_CAMPAIGN_2016_CLINTON_FOUNDATION?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2016-08-23-14-35-04
  23. yeah, the thought crossed my mind until I read some factual stuff detailing pay to play and an ongoing litany of the Lincoln Bedroom modus operandi.....))
