  1. Looking at it, I would have pronounced it "Sea - An - Trell".

    I guess my name being Shawn, it's a little close to home. Not for nothing, I'm assuming most radio show callers have watched preseason, listened to WGR or watched the draft. You'd figure through one of those outlets, they'd have heard his name pronounced once. IDK...

  2. ...and FFS, can someone hold a class on how to pronounce Seantrel Henderson's first name. Callers (and some hosts) have been hammering this kids name. I've heard:

     

    Sea Trail

    Sen Trial

    Seen Trel

     

    It's not that hard. Sean - Trel

  3. Which one? The drunken brawler or the born-again Christian?

    Well, the drunken brawler certainly appeals to me and its hard to crack a mans faith. I hate to sound this way but his East Brady, PA, country bumpkin "I can't quite figure out what's wrong with the way he talks" persona that initially bothered me. That was then this is now. I can't help but open my heart to the man.

  4.  

    The system is designed to try to maintain a 5% revenue growth rate and since the full season lockout it's averaged above that. With the new Rogers TV deal, it might initially go up even quicker than that. If the cap is $80MM in '17-'18, the deal will not be as outrageous as it looks on 1st glance. (A 5% growth rate would put the cap at $97MM in the deal's last year.)

    So the $15 million hockey player isn't too far down the road?

  5. So I put my whip on Craigslist.

    It's been just over 24 hours with no contact. I've sold several vehicles through Craigslist and almost always got an immediate response. I did notice a much slower reaction to my solstice which was 5-10 time the price of most of my vehicles.

     

    There is a website to go through just for this sort of thing but they charge anywhere from $100-$500, based on level of advertising you want. This is getting to be annoying.

  6. I'm sorry I'll take this time to rant about Soccer, Rochester and Donners undercapitalized sports ventures. The man never had enough money to basically do any of the business dealings he sought after. His poor financial situation led to the Sabres/Panthers/Amerks affiliation. The departure of the Sabres affiliation, the now busted defunct Sahlens stadium (due to a VERY vocal minority somehow convincing everyone we needed a new stadium for soccer that 15 west side Italians attend) and the absolute decimation of a proud and loyal hockey fan base. He destroyed it. Through crappy on ice products based on poor decisions made only to hold onto every penny rather than putting forth and good product to increase revenues.

     

    In the now immortal sentiment of Andre Reed:

     

     

    Steve Donner, ###### that guy.

  7. If Pegula buys the Bills and keeps them here, I think it's safe to say the Trial of Terry Pegula is over with

    If true I'm putting on my wife's lipstick, best dress and ###### me pumps and terry can have his way with me.

  8. Ahoy Maytees!

     

    Let's pretend you were a scurrilous cadger of the high seas. Let's say you laid your eyes upon some precious bounty on the Sabres team that no one was a'claiming.

     

    Firstly, how would'ger get yer hands on such a prize. Secondly, how would'ger cash in?

     

    Pirate Talk Only.

    Me thinks you be Bally hooing about precious booty. Many a booty to be had in ye ol land o crossed swords. Thee wife of ye ol king and her precious daughters be that booty. I'd cross swords with any scally wag to land that precious booty.

  9. Eid al Fitr!!

     

    Ramadan ended at sunset this evening.

     

    So, what I miss?

     

    Did we draft at #2 ... who?

     

    Any signings / trades?

    So, what I miss? Tim Murray has Zero ###### Given

     

    Did we draft at #2 ... who? Samson (were calling him that now) Reinhart followed by Brendan Lemieux in the next round. (Son of Claude)

     

    Any signings / trades? Signed Gionta, Mezaros, Moulson, Benoit, Dalpe and traded for Gorges

     

    ...and they re-signed Ennis to huge bank

  10. The Chevy Cruze is probably the best deal on the market right now. Personally for looks I prefer Nissan. Hyundai I believe offers the best warranty. I've been looking into economy sedans because I'm going to try to get out of my gas hog Buick.

    Lots of driving in your near future young padawan
