Ghost of Dwight Drane

I got to sit with her and RJ's sister.....not much talking during play....she was ALL about the game. She was actually mad that RJ kept such a busy workload and was pounding him to cut back. This was 4-5 years ago. I get the impression he was thinking of calling it a day, but then Pegula stepped in and he had more hope. I just got such a kick out of it....sharp as a tack and she could get 10 words in for one of yours. She didn't want any of my nachos though......

There was once a survey taken in which Barabbas came out ahead....... I have no issue with them wanting to go in a different direction.....they could have shown some more class in doing so. Not a huge deal. I think I'm just seeing a lot more ageism these days and total lack of appreciation for history, honesty, and respect.

Aw man....she was one of the coolest people I have ever met. Got to sit with her for 3 hours at a table for a game and she had more energy than anyone in the club level. A true fan. RIP

AKA...we want to fire you, but prefer you quit....... Then what did they do?

I just appreciate straight shooters who have more knowledge and skill in their pinkie finger than all the wells in Pennsylvania...... The Sabres put out 25 press releases that Mike Gilbert was on the bean counting team for the Olympics....yet a guy like Neale who impacted the game for a half century in every aspect gets shuffled out the door in the dark of night without a word. The more things go on, the more I am coming to understand that if Terry doesn't know it, or Terry doesn't want to know it.....it doesn't exist.....

WOLVERINES!!!!!!..........

It's pretty amazing there were multiple iphone videos of the attack in Paris, yet nobody carrying a gun to possibly prevent or curtail the carnage.....including the cops...... Maybe the 2nd amendment actually supports the 1st? Naaaahhhh........

Give me a F'n break. He called me out for comparing the two. Like I was comparing Bobby Orr to Gord Donnelly....which in all honesty, might be true. The people looking for a king's ransom now are using the same wishful thinking. I believe you also said I was melodramatic when I said Girgensons was a can't miss prospect and would be the leader of this team the day we drafted him. You want it both ways? You want the cover of future uncertainty, yet when revisiting the past, it doesn't matter. You might as well be posting on the NY Lotto message board then....... Thank you. I thought Michael Grosek and Taylor Pyatt would be 400 goal scorers. We all whiff. People are still waxing poetic for Myers as some sort of great player though. He's propbably going to end a $38.5 million contract scoring less than 50 goals and getting into 3 fights over 7 years.

Watermellon......

I got called out for comparing him to Karlsson. 1 1/2 seasons of games ago, the majority of this board wanted Myers over Karlsson. I think it was a fair point. I love reading through that thread. People are still trying to use the same reasoning in overvaluing Myers.....meanwhile Karlsson looks like a 90% HOF'r

That's pretty nice of him. As much as I enjoy teasing, he has a big heart. If he's really good, he'll send you a free Stafford Turdburger jersey and take the $150 writeoff for his boss before they mark them down to $29 in April.......

When they finally take the plunge, there needs to be a Sabrespace reception somewhere.

Say hi to Russ for me... :)

Ok.....I'm going to need a few volunteers to meet me on Chippewa to film the, "Co-dy...Hodg-e-son" parody. I'm thinking Chz and bio are musts......and maybe we can have PA making it rain singles while we get a slow motion shot of X. emptying the last of his bottle of Vicoden down his throat. Of course....all to the backdrop of Hodgson leaving guys alone in his own zone to score......

To answer your question.......in the voice of James Lipton on a certain Bravo show........."You know his genius......most recently from a series of advertisements as a Nordic neanderthal....for Capital...One.............but before that......he thrilled us..as......."Doctor.......Death!!"......the loveable linebacker in an underrated HBO production known as....1st and 10........ But make no mistake.....by far....his brilliance was allowed to radiate as brightly as the rays of the sun...in his portrayal of a cinematic masterpiece of a character..........Ogre..........in Revenge of the Nerds...........where his simplistic view of the world was indeed no doubt molded by his own self conciousness..............and in one of his most memorable scenes........as he ravishes the whipped cream out of a foil pie tin......... in hasty fashion.........only to reveal the bare bossoms of his friend's....main squeeze.........and utters to his friend in workmanline.....direct...tone...... "HERE'S WHY" http://forums.sabrespace.com/topic/21084-tyler-myers-vs-erik-karlsson/page__hl__%2Bmyers+%2Bkarlsson PS.....look at the results and then understand only 130 regular season games have passed since it was taken........................

YOU LIE!!!! MJ once bet $3,000 on the Rangers to win a playoff game at the sportsbook of MGM before a DeLaHoya fight........He CARES!!!

Just on odds alone from the past 3 years.... Dareus gets arrested (67%) Kyle Williams shreds a foot (67%) Mario finds a new broad and has a breakdown (33%) Hughes in FA (50% he comes back) There's a 10% chance none of your 4 starting linemen are in the lineup for a chunk of games.....

What kind of odds can I get that Terry Pegula will not be the owner when that happens?

You done good DS.....you may get drunk and urinate outside in front of all the kids at the family picnic....but you brought 3 cases of craft beer and put the big shrimp in the shrimp salad....so you deserve a break....

I'm not enraged. Just observant. I think i learned in the football thread that if people are going to take 60 "Top 25" teams in the literal sense.....I'm swimming upstream against a current that can't be diverted when it comes to things that actually take a few hours of work to understand and aren't listed on CNN's trending page....

It's not that they didn't do on it's own....it's the supposed, "we're one big family", and letting Bob Halkidis and Steve Dykstra walk the red carpet.....then two guys who went above and beyond and are more talented than 90% at their craft, get put out to pasture without even a thank you. It really seems to me that things do not exisit in a certain someone's mind if he never paid attention to them or fails to address them.

Nice.... Besides the Penn St. thing, if there is one characteristic of the #OneBuffalo ownership team that I really don't care for, it is their lack of respect towards guys that have bled for their craft for decades. They swept Harry out the door without even a thank you or a press release. Terry made sure to get camera time trying to open Robitaille's gift for him.....but a true HOF broadcaster and guy who had done it all gets misremembered. Buddy Nix could have at least gotten a one paragraph thank you in a press release. The guy was flying coach to Mississippi and puddlejumpers to Gainesville at 70 years old to try and make Pegula's $1.4 billion experiment successful. His service to the Bills spanned 4 decades.

I didn't say the contract is unreasonable....people are saying he has a "great contract" and would put up "top numbers" if paired on a top line of a better team. I'm saying people are Chasing the 2009 Tyler Myers Dragon......
