If that's true, I'm glad we're rid of the little ingrate. GO SABRES!!!

You need to check that cupboard. It's far from empty. GO SABRES!!!

^This. As far as Armia, Lemiuex (sp?), and the late 1st go, we won't know anything about their value in this trade for a while yet. As far as the known quantities, we got the best player in this trade, and another that brings a more consistent defensive game to the mix. In terms of pure CURRENT and PROVEN NHL talent, Murray got the better end of the deal. Don't see how anyone can disagree with that aspect of the deal. GO SABRES!!!

You're thinking of Wayne Cashman and yes, that would be fun to see. I remember listening to it on the radio. GO SABRES!!!

Loved the 2nd episode. This promises to be a fun ride with Gilligan and Co; just great story telling on a completely different level. When it's all said and done, I predict that 'Better Call Saul' will be in the top three all time and Gilligan will have been the creator of two of them.

Watched the first episode last night and am recording the second. I'm already hooked. The opening scene of Saul sitting down to watch VHS tapes of his old TV commercials was all I needed. The future is in black and white and the past is in color? nobody does dry openings better than Gilligan. The same 'Breaking Bad' team of writers, producers, directors, etc. that can now complete each other's sentences, promises to be even better than before. I can't recall the last time a spin-off series garnered such high praise from critics. But after last night, I can see why. It has the chops to stand alone.

Always thought we were at a disadvantage with that small ice. Imagine Bert with more room? GO SABRES!!!

Perhaps. How about his sexual assault of a woman while out playing golf with the boys? Or is rubbing your golf club against a women's ###### just a bunch of men playing a game, too? Maybe he just should have stopped at dry humping her but got carried away. He and the Dolphins made that little episode disappear before it gained more traction. EDIT: guess we can't use correct anatomical language for a woman's private area. wouldn't want anyone to think I was being crass.

Don't like the RI signing in the least. He's a douche nozzle of the highest order and he was long before the bullschit with J. Martin and the 'Phins. That made him look like a Boy Scout compared to his other crap. Hope someone else beats him out for the job. GO BILLS!!!

Massare purported to be related to Littman. Not sure how he would have a conduit into the team currently as Littman hasn't been part of the organization since the sale. Massare was one of the first to suggest the Pegulas had the inside track back in May, iirc, but that wasn't much of a stretch anyway. GO BILLS!!!

I remember that series. Bert was on fire with those two guys. Never better. 9 points in four games before getting hurt. 'The Dream Line' indeed! GO SABRES!!!

Thanks, "Gem"chz, this was a stroll down memory lane. In keeping with that spirit of nostalgia, I thought I'd link a 'Legends of Hockey' piece on Gilbert. Nearly brought a tear. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXhVsl1XOgg GO SABRES!!!

Don't you mean you can't "lose" them all? Or is this the Carrion Hockey League bizzaro reference? GO SABRES!!!

I don't think the Pats* cheating had anything to do with Butler's great play. That play is where preparation meets lazy route running by Lockette, who's poor execution of that simple pattern made it too easy to jump the route. The play itself was there to be made as Wilson had 2 on 2 coverage with the Pats* defending run first and all kinds of space as a result; the exact look Wilson would like to see. The problem was that Lockette screwed the pooch by turning his chin inward too soon. On that particular route, he has to open his outside shoulder BEFORE turning his head inside to at least make the DB think a fade is possible. But as soon as he turned his chin first, Butler went right to the spot and beat Lockette to the ball. Just a lazy play by the receiver. While I don't like that Bevell called him out publicly, Lockette needs to do a better job there. None of that takes away from the GREAT play by Butler, though. GO BILLS!!!

Not sure you can really gauge a player's talent when he's asleep. Then again, Murray is crafty. GO SABRES!!!

I never thought Dom had anything to atone for. He gave everything he had to the team and fans every time he stepped on the ice. The same can't be said for the team giving him everything. I fully understood why he wanted to go get a cup and I was really happy for him when he won it. Not sure why every fan wouldn't feel the same. And that million dollars he gave upon his departure should have trumped everything anyway. I was embarrassed that fans had the gall to boo him when he returned as a Redwing. Classless reaction by a jaded fan base. GO BILLS!!!

Was Dom's ceremony for him or the fans?

I loved it when a fan yelled, "NO GOAL!" Best part of the ceremony. As to the rest of it, I suspect Dom had a say in the production value. GO SABRES!!!

Not enough mention of the brave Muslim employee at the Jewish deli in Paris. He hid six customers in a freezer, two children among them, turned it off, and was able to get out to give police valuable information about what was happening inside. The man's a hero. And it's nice to be reminded that heroes come in all different forms.

I keep thinking about GoDD's joke about Kim wearing sandals at the interview. GO BILLS!!!

Unless Flacco chose that play at the LOS (and I can see why he liked what he saw), I think Kubiak would like that 3rd down INT back. Minute and a half to go, you're inside their 40 with two timeouts, you have your entire playbook at your disposal. There was no need to go for the big play there. Especially because a TD puts you up 3 but there's still a minute and half for Brady to get Gostkowski in range for the tying FG anyway. I like the courage, especially when Flacco is staring a single safety in the face, but there was just no need to get greedy at that point. Friggin' NE*. GO BILLS!!!

The US not using ME oil is quite different from American, British, Dutch, French, and other companies not using ME oil. They pump, refine, and profit from ME oil just fine, regardless. This will never change.

Big oil and big finance will never let that happen. Even during all those years when our government conferred rogue status on Iran, for example, big oil and finance was still allowed to prosper by their dealings in that nation. There are just too many entrenched American, British, Dutch, French and other interests in those countries and has been for well over 100 years. Additionally, I'm not convinced that the revenues ISIS derives from black market oil sales couldn't be stopped tomorrow if big money interests weren't benefiting by those transactions.

Any criticism of Brandon's involvement on the football side since 2008 is certainly fair game for criticism. But there is simply no denying the positive impact he's had on bottom line performance since he was hired in '97. The Toronto series that netted $80m plus in non-shared revenue is one thing, but it was the immediate influx of those revenues upon his hire that endeared him to Mr. Wilson. Remember entering The Ralph after the renovations in '98? All that new ad signage from all those new sponsors was not a coincidence nor was the record number of sales of private suites and club seating at the time. He brought non-shared revenue generation into the 21st century for the club in an economically challenged market and it's no surprise he put himself on an upward track in the organization as a result. It's one thing to sell tickets in "the region", quite another to expand the region altogether, especially in the form of corporate sponsorship. I'd be surprised if the Pegulas, especially with the advent of their 'One Buffalo' campaign, wouldn't seek to leverage Brandon's success in that area. GO BILLS!!!

You wouldn't be disappointed. Buddy would insist on using whatever money you were gonna pay for another round, too. GO BILLS!!!
