  1. I'm sure he is. Keep in mind that no one circles the wagons like the press defending one of their own. He did. It was worded clumsily.
  2. 1. "The statement attributed to me in Mr. Trotter's complaint is absolutely false." This, indeed, is horribly worded. I think we both know what he meant, though: "I didn't say that." I think sometimes PR writers get too caught up in trying to sound fancy and/or trying to sound like lawyers. 2. "I am horrified that anyone would connect me to an allegation of this kind." AND "and I am personally disgusted that my name is associated with this complaint." There's nothing wrong with these. He's allowed to have an emotional reaction to what (he says) is a false accusation. 3. "Racism has no place in our society" Did you honestly expect that any response to something like this, from anyone, would NOT include something like this?
  3. Yeah, the guy who married a woman of a different race and who has several brown kids is going to say something like that. Eyeroll thingy.
  4. Brilliant. As for the article itself, it feels very "nothing to see here" to me.
  5. Like I said. She has a lot of singles titles in her future.
  6. Eh. That TD turned the tide, though. I'm not saying I love the guy, but I am saying he has his ups and downs.
  7. He also contributed heavily in the last SB. I'm enjoying the Toney memes etc. as much as anyone, but I'm not going to evaluate him based just upon yesterday, just like I'm not going to evaluate him based just upon the SB.
  8. The New England Patriots message board is over there --->
  9. But that could happen--and could be awesome. I know most PP1 units have a forward on the point, but that can backfire (Alfredsson) and with their abilities, this could be amazing. Or Power could be on the point of PP2, which also presents a threat.
  10. Yep. The white one and the blue one. 😉
  11. Maybe he's the senior advisor TO the general manager.
  12. I haven't read the details, but on the surface, this is as stupid as it was to go to that ***** uniform in the first instance. The Buffalo Sabres wear white sweaters with blue breezers. Blue sweaters with blue breezers. Beautiful deep gold trim on both. The logo is a charging buffalo above two sabres. THAT IS IT.
  13. Oh I think you see them exactly the same way I do!
  14. My money is that Coco will be the top-ranked US woman after this US Open.
  15. This article makes the case that all three need to improve, and then goes on to suggest that the three might benefit from playing as line mates while the Sabs await Quinn's return: https://thehockeywriters.com/3-sabres-impress-right-away-2023-24/ I don't think I agree, but I found it stimulating enough for off-season discussion. Certainly, Krebs is enough of a playmaker that he can feed Olofsson, but is Greenway enough of a playmaker to get the puck to Krebs? And would this disrupt Krebs's development as a checking center? (I really see him in Peca's mold, but probably not as good.) Greenway and Krebs would cover Olofsson's defensive irresponsibility, I at least can see that.
  16. We did NOT lack snow last winter! WNY was literally a disaster area once, and figuratively, three times.
  17. I'm sorry, but I remember 50/50 even in 2006-ish. It was 25% for the Sens, even. It's just how it is here, we live next to about 25% of Canada's population and anyone whose granddad filled up at a gas station where Bobby Orr took a poop once is a Bruins fan, on top of it.
  18. It's just too noisy. I did give it 30 seconds. I'm not going to know the reference, I guess, or whoever "Kelis" is. I'll be ok. Carry on.
  19. It doesn't matter. There isn't corporate money in Winnipeg or Phoenix (not for hockey!) either. Or a few other cities but I'm too tired! The fact that there are only two teams HELPS, not hurts. Think of how much more corporate money St. Louis gets now that it's just them and the Cardinals. RD was at Bacchus last night having a nice meal, from what I understand.
