    Thug antics.

    All good stuff here as well. Nothing to disagree with here at all. I am only looking at the question of insulting someone's faith. Quite simply, it cannot be insulted. It is transcendent. If Muslims are offended by caricatures of the Prophet or Christians by the cartoons of a "raptor Jesus", etc, then the faith has been lost.

    Your timing is off. Pegula bought the Sabres 7 months before the Sandusky story broke. We can criticize Pegula, Benson, and anyone else we want whenever we want. It's when people deliberately cross a line and accuse them of being involved in and covering up pedophilia without anything other than a tinfoil conspiracy theory that it becomes a problem. Especially from someone who has offered several other tinfoil conspiracy theories over the years.

    Everyone is well aware of Benson's role with the charity as well as others on the board with ties to PSU. Yes, the math is easy, but it doesn't mean a damned thing because there is no there, there. When you can link relative information that actually says Benson is under investigation, as you claimed, let me know.

    You implied Benson was under investigation and linked a three year old article to support that claim. A three year old article that doesn't even mention Benson, by the way. The better question is what don't YOU understand?

    You offer up a three year old article with no mention of Benson to imply Benson is being investigated? That is some weak crap you are slinging. What is the CURRENT disposition of the investigation of the charity and can you point us to anything, ANYTHING, that suggests Benson was complicit?

    This is all good stuff to be sure. One can't belittle others if others can't be belittled. One can't be belittled if one doesn't take offense. Nothing anyone can say, no amount of ridicule what so ever, can have the power to shake one's faith. If it does, the faith isn't strong enough to begin with.

    Thanks for the clarification. My post was certainly not confined to their particular brand of being offended, though. It goes for anyone of any faith in anything.

    I came late to this dance and don't know what YEC is. Good point about tolerance. I submit faith is impossible without it.

    Smartness and wilfull ignorance are seldom a healthy combination. I think it is a dangerous formula, actually. And anyone offended by cartoon depictions of their God or Prophet or whatever are not as strong in their faith as they would have me believe. True faith needs to withstand the harshest of insults and other attempts to diminish it. It needs no justification, especially in an imagined defense of it.

    The first turned into the money grab of all money grabs; the Mother of All Money Grabs. Big, fat-cat multi-nationals suckling at the government tit to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars. All in the name of the "Homeland" (sorry, too much like "fatherland" for my liking) and "security." Disgusting. End rant.

    Perhaps because he was on the ice for all four Sabres goals? GO SABRES!!!

    Like every other megalomaniac. Not surprised at all.

    In a league demonstrably different than young NHL dmen are playing in today. GO SABRES!!!

    Saw a fair amount of that last night. DD had Moulson skating with Legwand after the first period, iirc. I like Girgs on Eichel's wing, too, and have since preseason. GO SABRES!!!

    Post-tank year one and some are disappointed that a recently turned 21 years old defenseman isn't Lidstrom yet? Really? From what planet do these expectations originate from? Just another symptom of our hot-pocket society I guess. And Mike Weber still blows. It didn't take Bylsma long to see that, too. He's lucky to have a 7th dman position in this league. GO SABRES!!!

    For those favoring Reinhart, would you all be OK with Jack you going to first line wing while Samson plays second line center for the next 20 games? GO SABRES!!!

    Irony of ironies is that Assad is actually buying most of the oil from ISIS. That's right, he's buying the very oil hijacked by his enemy. Only in the Middle East.

    How long ago was it that 63 was dancing through the Canucks to set up the winning goal? He will turn it around GO SABRES!!!
  20. K-9
    Say no more, say no less. GO SABRES!!!
  21. K-9
    I think the linesman did let it go. Unfortunately, whomever Dallas has looking at replays, didn't let it go and notified the bench to have it reviewed. C'est la vie. GO SABRES!!!

    Haven't heard the comments, but I wouldn't be surprised if Cruz had this feeling. He did, after all, state that anyone of Muslim faith would be unfit to be president. He himself should be disqualified on that basis alone.

    Well, this clinches it for me. I'm voting for Trump because he is clairvoyant. What else do we need? http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/donald-trump-feel-terrorism-article-1.2437276

    Damned sweatsuit antics! GO SABRES!!!

    Oh, I follow it alright. We've been in bed with the Saudis since well before they became a country in 1932. And that is precisely the point as to the folly of issuing ultimatums to countries that sponsor terrorism. I can't speak for all terrorists, but a shared ideology of Sunni fundamentalism is a common thread between the Saudi royals and the most desperate ISIS recruit from the region.
