  1. I don't think it's an insult per se. I generally think of older women as handsome.  For instance, I watched Return of the Jedi last night and this is a handsome woman:

    That's not you, you're just normal boring hot.

    OKAY I WANTED TO WRESTLE HER FOR IT I DIDN'T HAVE TO

    Because you had crushed up an extra sleeping pill in her applesauce and she had passed out?

  2. Reminder: the NHL doesn't allow diagonal angles for goal reviews in situations like that. The "parallax angle" comes into play.

     

    With that said: it was a goal. The ref actually called it a goal initially but then skated over towards the reply booth and said he "wasn't sure" so it was no goal on the ice. Review didn't have good angles. There's a photo of the puck completely over the line but no way for the refs to have a photographers photo during the replay.

    What's the parallax angle? And is there a link to the photo?

     

    In situations like this where there isn't a definitive call on the ice, are we OK with using a different standard? Instead of incontrovertible evidence, merely preponderance of evidence or something? In other words, let Toronto make the call as if they're the ref. What was more likely than not to have happened?

  3. Didn't watch the ep but through the twitterverse, heard what happened. I'm all for losing main characters, early and often. It's the walking freaking dead not Gilligan's island.

    ha! That was one of the first things I heard from the devotees of the comics -- don't get attached to anyone! The show has let me down in this regard. Next to go: Carl. Totally useless character at this point.

  4. This is not an investment. I just don't want to lose money. But you're right. It's my risk.  But I think this is a "canary in a coal mine" thing, indicating that fan interest in the Sabres isn't where we think it is.

    The interest is probably never as high as the marketing people want us to think it is. I always laugh at the buildup for the season openers... it's gonna be craaaay craaaaaaay!!!!!! Then there's one Let's Go Buffalo chant and people go to sleep. When I come to games I can never reconcile what I hear in the media about "hockey mad Buffalo" and the atmosphere in that building. Winnipeg, it ain't.

  5. lol. The wife thinks the other dude landed on top of him and those were the other dudes guts n stuff and that there will suddenly be a large noise to pull all the zombies off and he'll be left lying there thankin his lucky stars. Its a stretch sure but its all she's got. :blink:

    That was my thought. The only other option they have is, "It was all a dream."

  6. Oh my goodness! The coil has been lifted from my eyes! I understand it all, now!

    How would the taxpayers' money be any better spent if the Bills were a powerhouse year in and year out?

    I love how you competently place your apostrophes. Bringing sexy back to SabreSpace.

  7. I'm always amazed that the Bills can continue to get free passes from their fan base, yet the Sabres, who have just completed what is arguably a successful tank and have one of the best young talents in the league, are already being criticized to death for not winning immediately. Buffalo sports fans must be the biggest f*cking rubes in the world. 

  8. That's great CD. Thanks for sharing. And the historical footnote about the plaque is very cool. I'll check it out for sure next time.

     

    Here's a short funny video about Jimmy. Turns out he shared an odd and very unexpected coaching habit with none other than Ran Ralston:

     

  9. I know I'm a little stinkah in this thread from time to time. But I honestly feel bad for the real Bills fans. It's just a nightmare. I want them to win, but I'm not one of you anymore. I just couldn't do it anymore. I don't know how so many have hung on for so long. If the day ever comes, you should be at the head of the parade.

  10. takes Tpegs a while to catch on----but eventually he gets it. Despite the Sabes losing record they are def on the right track with some great young talent and a good GM and coach

    So he gets it, forgets it, then gets it again? Why is Whaley the GM? Did Terry say, "I can work with him"?
