  1. Nice to see the term "consistent" used in reference to Grigorenko. Another full year in the A will do him good. Of course, he should have been there all along. GO SABRES!!!
  2. As a world traveler at the time, I was very interested in foreign viewpoints on US policy. Indeed, my job was keenly influenced by these views at times. When you get a chance and if you are so inclined, I'd be interested in your ideas on what the US could/should have done in the former Yugoslavia and the surrounding region.
  3. Just to be clear, I don't know enough about any of these prospects to know one way or the other, so I don't have a preference. I just thought TM's previous comments about LD were telling. It's my understanding that Draisaitl is a puck possession type of centerman with good vision, which seems like just what this team is lacking more than anything. In Murray I trust. Don't have any other choice. GO SABRES!!!
  4. 2 down, 6 to go. GO SABRES!!!
  5. Good point. I think he really likes Draisaitl for some reason. Big, strong C, hard to knock off the puck with superior vision and playmaking skills. And at our most critical position of need to boot. GO BILLS!!!
  6. You may breath a little easier as he only has to get them to the WC finals (and play 50% of the first two rounds). So it's 1 down, 7 to go. GO SABRES!!!
  7. You sucked me in once regarding this topic and, while I'm glad I could amuse you last time, I'm not gonna be the organ grinder's monkey on this one. That's cool. I'm out.
  8. Just assumed people would know I was being totally sarcastic. Sorry that wasn't clear. Thanks for getting my back here, Shrader. Much appreciated. It's easy get your tit in a ringer around here sometimes. GO SABRES!!!
  9. I didn't say that it wasn't. Just wondering why GoDD felt the need to interject personal moral feelings on a subject that is NOT related to the gun control issue. Seems like another conflation. Morality cannot be legislated, anyway.
  10. According to the law in the United States, abortion hasn't killed a single person since it was legalized. Why are you seemingly seeking to inject your personal moral feelings on that issue in a discussion about gun control?
  11. The reason we invaded Iraq was because of Saddam Hussein's insistence on tying oil sales to the Euro. Petrodollar warfare is a very real thing. Simply put, the United States and Great Britain will NEVER let petroleum be tagged to ANY other currency. It's been like that for over a hundred years. Pretty much since BP made their first big discoveries in Persia and shifted their energy strategies from coal to oil.
  12. Another homesick Euro-pu$$y. I wonder how much Leino's experience influenced his feelings about the organization. Compare this to Girgs, a European that embraces the challenge. Sure, he's been in the States longer and has had more of a chance to get acclimated, but still. Maybe Teppo can calm his Finnish-a$$ down before he has a full-blown panic attack. Would suck to lose that high a pick before he had a chance. GO BILLS!!!
  13. No, we got rid of the jocular, levity filled Weber and got back the suddenly serious Weber. GO SABRES!!!
  14. Sorry X, but Weber's statement rings hollow to me. I agree with everything you said, though. GO SABRES!!!
  15. That is a loser's comment if I ever heard one. Oh, NOW you're gonna get serious? Really? Ooooh, watch out Mike Weber is gonna get serious about being a hockey player now. Laughable. I doubt Weber even makes the squad. GO SABRES!!!
  16. See, now that, right there, is funny stuff. Can't get this comedy anywhere else. GO SABRES!!!
  17. can someone tell me what's up with back to back to back games? What other pro league has teams play on three consecutive nights? GO SABRES!!!
  18. It was Norway, but who's counting.
  19. I'll also add that Miller is the ONLY reason the Blues are only down 2-0. Great saves on two breakaways that I've seen. GO SABRES!!!
  20. LOL! That's a good point. I bet I can guess who these people are simply by asking what their favorite "news" channel is.
  21. Damn, the bloom is off that rose in record time. GO SABRES!!!
  22. I think it speaks to values, regardless of governmental type. I don't think it takes a socialist form of government to do the right thing by your people. For instance, in my opinion, the first line in a strong national defense is a healthy, educated populace. And that takes tax dollars, obviously. But the argument isn't so much about more taxes as it is about REALLOCATING the taxes already collected. There are too many private industrial entities suckling on the government teet to let that happen. It's easier to blame deadbeats than fatcat CEOs who get rich off the public dime. I'll stop now. Sorry for the rant.
  23. Thanks for the link. I was particularly impressed with the article about Norway's investment of its oil wealth. That's a country that cares about its people.
  24. He played Saturday. Miller won't see too many back to back games. GO SABRES!!!
  25. I believe MIller has to play at least 50% of the time in the first two rounds, so if they ride Elliot to the WCF, it means we don't get their first this year. GO SABRES!!!
