So, you’ve never tested positive, yet you have the antibodies? How does that happen?

Sorry. Starting 6.

I’d be fine if they just cut out the armed forces recruitment portion of the pregame that the singing of the national anthems has become. Talk about an energy vacuum in the opening ceremonies. Introduce the starting 5, then get set for puck drop. Done. Thats all I need.

I often have no idea what you are trying to say. And this post is unacceptable for a mod,… and yet completely in line with past mod behavior.

I love winter. It's not even close.

I just got in from riding a snow machine for the first time. It's my nephews and he keeps them at my house because he just moved into a new apartment. Apparently, during a snow emergency in NJ, it's legal to drive them on the roads. What a ***** blast! I will be putting some miles on these these things this winter.

Has Covid brought to an end the snow day?

Manatees are the only reason Florida shouldn't be submersed by global warming. Actually, they won't care, so let 'er rip.

Familiarity breeds contempt. There will absolutely be more fighting. It's shaping up to be a great season, if shortened.

I just found out that they added another playoff team to each conference’s playoffs. Interesting.

What do you think they put in Jackson's IV? It certainly wasn't just pickle juice.

My friend was at that game. He's not color blind. He said that under the lights, in person, it was brutal. I'm convinced they only do it to sell the video to EA sports cuz its easier to digitize the movement of players for Madden NFL. Just like the sensors in the unis. It's not for us. It's crap.

Fredonia representin'!! The album I produced made it to the round right before the finalists ('ammit!) and my brother is on this list.

It was a year ago this weekend that I watched the Bills clinch the playoffs against the Steelers in my dad's log term care room in Lewiston. It was the last time I saw him alive. Fantastic night and memory. Tonight is fantastic, as well. Verd would be happy. I know I am.

Football is funny, though. It's kinda like chess. I now have enough faith in this staff to think that they just ride the first thirty out, and then plan for the second half. The Bills are good.

Did it for you.

We’re not going to lead until the last play of the game.

It’s an interception.

Huh? A punt without a flag. Didn't know that was a thing.

It’s only indefensible if you ignore the fact that I said health care workers and long term care patients should get it first,... which you did. You are acting like everyone that doesn’t get the vaccine will die and getting it is the only way to keep people safe. Those who can continue to wfh should and they don’t need the vaccine and can wait. I can go to work like I have every day, practicing all the same precautions that I have been, and I don’t need the vaccine and can wait. I want to see hockey. They're not playing for a month. Plenty of time to get more doses. A couple of thousand doses isn’t going to bring this country to its knees while providing millions of man-hours of escape from BS

You’re being obtuse. There are already plenty of doses to do both. Of course, people in nursing homes and healthcare workers should get it first. I already said as much. But like Derrico said, mental health issues are a real thing. Hockey would help a lot of people. I wonder if this is the hill you would be fighting on if it didn’t effect you personally.

I should have said I’m okay with them jumping the line, just not all the way to the front. Obviously.

I have no problem with and actually I want the NHL to cut the line. The NHL being able to start the season affects more than just its players and owners. Millions of people watch and enjoy hockey. There has been terrible isolation and boredom throughout this whole thing. I can’t even imagine how much easier this would have been if I had something to fill three hours (sometimes more) of the day every day. I will be one of the last people to get the vaccine. I’ll be surprised if I get it by August of next year, despite all of the recent (imho misguided) optimism. The NHL will help me get through this. I don’t see why they should have to put themselves at risk for providing that service. Jab ‘Em!

It wasn’t the US that shut him down.

I always hold my card with the receipt in one hand. Once I get to my, truck I use hand sanitizer on my hands and the card. Yes, it's overkill, since I don't think there has ever been a proven case of someone getting it through surface contact, but why risk it.
