  1. Is the one on the far left Swados? Looks like him.

     

    The one in profile in the background appears to be Norty.

     

    I'll take Sabre Dance's word for it that the guy next to Azar is the mayor.

     

    Can't see enough of the guy in the far back, but PA's guess that it's Campbell makes sense and he looks similar to him.

     

    The 3 in the front are obvious.

     

    Surprised Punch isn't in the picture.

     

    I don't think it's Swados. I just looked at Budd Bailey's history of the Sabres and there's a photo of the Niagara Frontier Hockey group that tried unsuccessfully to land the Sabres the first time. Swados is shown and there's little resemblance between him and the guy in the photo. Also, Norty was already essentially bald by then.

  2. I'm betting that his wife runs the Sabres and he runs the Bills. I think I heard rumors that Mrs. Pegula wanted the Sabres and Mr. Pegula has always wanted the Sabres. If that is the case, has there ever been, let's say, women "controlling" (for lack of a better word) owners in the NHL?

     

    Interesting. I remember starting a thread when Terry bought the team asking what people thought his motivation was for doing so. "Giving his wife a gift" and "laying the groundwork for buying the Bills" never entered my mind.

  3. Shhhhhhh! :o

     

    Your sarcasm may go undetected and then we'll end up in a 5 day naval gazing session resulting in That Aud Smell being made a moderator and 3 more Sabrespacers moving to Tobacco Road.

     

    Don't even tease me. That dude can pound his gavel in my direction any day.

  4. I have a friend. This is my friend. He emails me this stuff on a regular basis, and I kick myself constantly for not saving all of it and putting it into a book, or a Twitter feed. This is ###### my friend says:

     

    Subject line was DMWTFAF

     

     

    It is an acronym for the title of my next book: “Defecating my way to fame and fortune.”

     

    Yesterday morning, I shat out a horseshoe. Not an actual horsehoe, mind you; just a turd shaped like a horseshoe.

     

    I took it as a sign that I should either: (1) buy a lottery ticket; or (2) lay big coin in Vegas on the Colts to win Super Bowl XLIX. So I did both. Pretty sure that will work out for me.

     

    This morning I shat no interesting shapes, just regular logs. However, I did crap them onto a Pittsburgh Steelers logo that I’d strategically taped to the bottom-center of the toilet bowl. What a tremendous way to start the day!

     

    I have a conference call later this morning with the NFL marketing gurus and the U.S. Patent Office. I’m pretty sure by the end of August you’ll see toilet-bowl logos of every NFL and major college football team available at all your finer retail and drinking establishments.

  5. Give it a couple more years. I don't think we'll be in that conversation until 2019 at the earliest... And that's if a lot of these guys reach their potential.

     

    OMFG. Five years? I'm sure there are a ton of suits in the arena who hope you're the typical fan, but come on, young laddy. You might have that much time, but I don't! (And, importantly, I don't think GMTM would agree with your assessment.)

  6. I get the 10 points back for making my minions do my research for me. bwwwwahahaha

     

    Doesn't "economically depressed" here or there get a little old? I mean, yeah, it is. But depressed is a pretty strong word. Maybe I just don't notice it anymore. I can't think of a time in my lifetime that this region hasn't been let's say recessed, or recessed-feeling. But, jeez, it's not like it's Calcutta. We're not all eating dirt, and liking it.
