K-9

That's a funny description. Great stuff, PA. We all understand your frustration. I think TP wants that cup as much as us and once he committed to the total rebuild, I was convinced more than ever. But some things transcend the cup, like an enduring commitment to the renaissance of a once great city. GO SABRES!!!

That's what you took away from the article? I thought for sure you'd run out and get a Pegula #1 jersey. Guess I was wrong.

Sure you do. But who says chivalry is dead? This is the cyber equivalent of placing your coat over a puddle of water so that a lady may pass unsoiled. Bravo!

I'd argue Risto/Zad has already supplanted them. GO SABRES!!!

Wait. When chz said "next level" it was really a metaphor? I can only imagine what "catnasty" means. GO SABRES!!!

I heard Peters say on the radio this morning that Z would have eight points in the All Star game and win the car as MVP. Says Z knows only one way to approach life and play the game. Having him in that game would raise EVERYBODY'S level of competition. I'd love to see it. GO SABRES!!!

That's amazing. Heck, we have 18% of that total within a couple hundred yards of each other downtown and you don't have to go outside to skate on any of them. I don't think I've come across a more compelling story than Zemgus'. And I hope he doesn't experience any backlash from the likes of Milbury or fans that might not understand what's going on here. But if All Star slots were given based on work ethic and dedication to the game alone, Z would be the starting center in that game. GO SABRES!!!

All this and when they stuck up for each other in St. Louis. That had a galvanizing effect on this team. Contrast that to the response to Lucic in Boston when he ran Miller. How awesome is it that our best defensive pair are 20 and 19 years old? And they are legitimately good! We need the offensive centerpiece inkman refers to. GO BILLS!!!

This has to stop...NOW! GO SABRES!!!

Regardless of what line he ends up playing most in his career (and I don't really care), there is no disputing his contribution. He has something you can't coach. And like you said, he's only 20. Just wait until he fills out and learns the game a bit more. I think 2nd line just may be his floor when it's all said and done. GO BILLS!!!

My God, that's tragic. Sounds like we lost a good one at a time when good ones are needed most. My prayers to his family.

Huh?

GREAT point made here. Says a lot about his hockey-character. GO SABRES!!!

I would think this is obvious to even the most casual observer. I also think the Ferguson prosecutor should have recused himself. I understand his father was a police officer killed by an African-American male in the line of duty, he comes from a family full of police officers and actually wanted to be one but couldn't. He himself is quoted as saying being a prosecutor "is the next best thing." All of it cast so much doubt on his ability to impartially conduct the grand jury in this case.

It isn't worth much if for no other reason that in the modern vernacular, it is not considered a curse at all. Not in the least. And you know that. But you just couldn't help yourself. Glad we could indulge your desire to defend the faith from us infidels, though. I'll try not to laugh too hard at the diorama depicting the little cave children playing by the stream as the triceratops graze nearby.

I'm dying to visit The Creation Museum in KY. Just to see how long I could keep a straight face. Great idea for a thread, op. All I can say is what the ancient Chinese proverb says: may you live in interesting times. When I think of the scientific advances just in my lifetime, it amazes me.

Was at the game and watched Risto closely all night. IMO, he's the best player on our team. Nobody plays his position better on the squad. That says something really good and something really bad at the same time. Zadorov benefits from playing alongside him for sure. GO SABRES!!!

I don't know what to think about this really. While it's impressive that he's dominating the competition like that, I seriously have to question the level of competition. I'm not sure the CHL is the be-all, end-all league that it's cracked up to be anymore. GO SABRES!!!

This only applies to privileged white men with substantial land holdings and commercial interests. Seriously though, these words are exactly what pertains to the current situation. Sometimes when people seek to throw off the yolk of their oppression, it doesn't sit well with others who are unaffected by that struggle, let alone seek to understand it. Jefferson has long been one of my favorite founders to cite. His words endure and transcend time, cultures, and societal shifts. This doesn't mean that I don't also understand he was utterly full of crap at times.

He'd look just as good on Eichel's wing, too. GO SABRES!!!

But it's GREAT for business! Gotta keep the shareholders happy, you know.

Our criminal justice system, at least the incarceration aspect of it, is a prime example of what happens when you privatize certain government functions. Inmates are nothing more than widgets on the ledger of for-profit jailors. The more the better. It's shameful that such an obvious conflict of interest is allowed in this country. I think every practicing graduate of the Chicago School of Economics and the Milton Friedman groupies it spawned, should be summarily executed. We can start by blowing up the World Bank and IMF.

With all due respect, this is a crock. The blame for ISIS lies solely with Maliki and his bigoted decision to exclude an entire segment of his population from the political process on the heels of a hugely unpopular foreign occupation by a country never seen as a liberator but as a conqueror. And NO amount of US troops on the ground would have made a difference. It just would have been far more bloody and costly and I doubt anyone here would have liked that option. We never should have been there in the first place. And as much as this is now all about BO, that criminal son of a bitch Bush and his crony band of neo-cons is fully to blame for the mess. Period.

They actually stuff the wings with pizza?! That's Buffalo-style ingenuity at it's best!
