Hegseth admitting to having contingency plans for invasion is just one indication. The first clues were laid bare when the director of the NSA was fired and the longtime deputy director resigned. Since then, every intelligence agency has been ramping up spying efforts on Greenland as well. The idea of invading a fellow NATO territory is anathema to everything we stand for as a country. Why am I not surprised that MAGA scum voices are silent?

Conservatives doing victory laps is par for the course with these traitors. MAGA. Scum.

Senator Padilla, attending a Noem pc, in his home state to boot, was forcibly removed from the room, wrestled to the ground, and handcuffed by law enforcement today. And how does house speaker Mike Johnson react? By demanding that Padilla be censured. Unphuckingbelievable. When I referred to them as “MAGA Scum” in the past, I had no idea just how much I was insulting scum.

He was a physical freak if there ever was one. To be able to do 30+ pull-ups with arms that long is unheard of.

The distinction between “greatest” and “best” is greatly appreciated. Especially as they relate to different eras.

A running back breaking a long TD run on a slippery, snow covered field might be the worst example to illustrate his superior talent. We can find numerous other plays that show how good Cook is.

Trump’s decision to deploy US Marines to LA, after unlawfully deploying the California National Guard will be a major test for our armed forces. Will they have the moral clarity to disobey unlawful orders? It is their sworn obligation to do so. We are rapidly approaching the crossroads in this fight to save our democracy.

The situation became untenable, simple as that.

I never bought that KA over-values his prospects and won’t make deals as a result, but that’s been a theme with both media and fans alike for a while. Glad you cited Eichel for a couple reasons because imo, Eichel couldn’t be over-valued and also because the Eichel situation perfectly illustrates how teams and agents manipulate media to try and ramp up pressure on other organizations. Friedman, especially, was a big mouthpiece for the misinformation being peddled at the time.

Getting the fans to go bonkers in order to ratchet up some pressure on the Sabres is precisely the idea GMs (and agents for that matter) have in mind when it comes to the sort of media manipulation @PromoTheRobotalludes to in that particular post. Makes sense given how bonkers we fans currently are. Especially when it comes to KA over-valuing prospects and being afraid to pull the trigger on deals.

While @PromoTheRobothas certainly called out fans in the past, the particular post that @Pimlachresponded didn’t blame fans in the least. He was merely pointing out how teams can manipulate various media at times.

Just to be clear, I didn’t say coaching wasn’t a part of it. It certainly has been.

While better coaching may have a part in it, I think the main reason ex-Sabres do better on other teams after leaving here has less to do with the coaching on those other teams than it does on the fact that we serve as a farm team for those teams who acquire our players after several years of developing at the NHL level.

Perhaps, but evil can certainly phuck things up and hurt a lot of people on the way.

Out of respect for my Canadian brothers, I’m doing something I’ve never done before and that is root for the Oilers to win it all.

First of all, I wish you good luck in your continued recovery. Regarding the Sabres’ reluctance to approve of the ADR process for Eichel, it wasn’t that they thought it was some unproven, new age procedure in the least. It was that it had never been performed on an NHL player before. There simply wasn’t enough of a sample size across athletes in all contact sports to conclusively say it was medical best practice and Eichel was the first NHL player to have the surgery. As it is, there are now only three but the results are promising. And it’s worth noting that the leading proponent for not recommending the ADR for Eichel was none other than Dr. Andrew Cappuccino, a Sabres (and Bills) medical consultant, one of the first to perform ADR surgeries in the world and who teaches spinal surgery techniques to doctors around the globe. His opinion certainly carried a lot of weight at the time. Unfortunately, care givers don’t have the luxury of hindsight. Anyway, continued good luck in your recovery.

And a non-skating coach to boot.

Responsible news outlets were reporting on Thiel for a while leading up to the election, but the MAGA outlets like Fox and others never let their sheeple followers know a damned thing about him and the danger his ideology presents to our democracy. MAGA is the most ignorant constituency in history, especially when it comes to history; both ours and the world’s.

While all true about cheeto douche, his policies are based on whatever his puppet masters demand. He is the most easily manipulated president in history.

Interesting story about Andrew Mellon’s influence on Coolidge. The arrogance of the super wealthy who think their wealth makes them experts on how to better manage our democratic republic never ceases to amaze me. Our government of, by, and for the people isn’t a big business and should not be run like one for reasons I could spend days trying to explain. Anyway, I found this interesting in light of the Musk/DOGE fiasco. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/doge/100-years-elon-musk-one-americas-richest-men-came-fix-washington-rcna203584

Exactly

Smart kid.

Imo, Benson’s edge work borders on elite. And that skill helps make him the pest that he is on the ice. When he gets his man strength, watch out.

Last September it was $150 for a year (iirc) and I seriously considered it at the time, but I thought I’d see how the Sabres fared first before sinking another dime for my time. Well, my revolt against the organization crystallized as the season progressed and I gave less and less of a damn as it wore on. But as usual, the season ended and my thirst for hockey returned, so I thought “what the hell” and for $30 I thought it was worth watching the farm kids in the playoffs. I just didn’t see the point in watching any more FloHockey when the Amerks got eliminated as I have no interest in the remaining Calder Cup contenders. But FloHockey is a good deal, regardless.

Water. The. Tree.
