I think somewhat? I didn't mean my remark to mean that it was the league doing something stupid, just that it's a little different to have a game three days into camp. Very unlike NFL/MLB.

NHL is crazy. Training camp starts Thursday, and then the first preseason game is three days later?

That was nearly obscene.

I missed what happened to Jackson; can someone describe? NM. Saw it. OUCH. Glad he was moving his limbs after.

I think they have that someone--as you said. Maybe it's the wrong someone.

I wouldn't know where to find a stat like that, but I would have bet it was somewhere in that area. I think they don't understand the difference between being right and having absolute proof on video that they are right.

One day, McDermott will figure out how replay challenges are done properly. That day is not today.

Miami is good. I said it a few years ago when they drafted Tua and still had stockpiled eleventy billion draft picks: that team was going to be good. And now it is. And I don't think they'll sweep the Bills, but anyone who thinks they're going to be a walkover is fooling themselves. I also have a grim view of tonight. Tennessee just seems to have the Bills' number. Until and unless the Bills can stand up and show they can beat the Titans, I see Tennessee as a tough out no matter who the QB and receivers are. Plus these DL injuries all of the sudden...

The more football I watch, the more I notice how awful a "show" the NFL is. Unless the Bills are playing, it's generally boring to me. Bring on hockey!

Pimlach, I'm right there with you, but you're talking past JohnC. JohnC is saying that Portillo is using the system to his benefit, the best he can, and doesn't blame him. I can't blame Portillo, either. That the system is bad, as you point out, is a different matter.

Be the change you want to see in the world...

Nicely done....

Best of luck to him; that team is not going forward in the near future.

Nathan Gerbe, otherwise known as the right arm from the Bobby Hull picture above, has retired.

Yessir. Any perceived value is completely artificial.

I'm watching on the Sabres website with no issues, and I am not in Buffalo at the moment.

They gave him a PPG contract (and I don't criticize that decision); I expect PPG.

@Brawndoor anyone else...can someone repost the link to the games? I want to send it to a friend who is a Devils fan (poor taste but she's a good person) and I need a refresh myself. Thanks.

Everything about that team is so much fun. I gradually find myself leaving my Nationals behind and following Toronto. The games they played in Buffalo last year are a big part of this, BTW.

Congrats @Andrew Amerk! I've never seen anything like this before.

I went down to a freaking TIE.

700 is its own milestone.

Music City Massacre.

Happy Birthday Scott !

If it comes down to your long snapper, then no, the QB did not have it won. See also SB XXV.
