  1. Shake up in the office PAT LaFONTAINE RESIGNS

    TM seems like he would ransom a family member if he could get another first round pick thrown in...ruthless but those are the people that build great teams because they see the players as commodities and when their production starts declining they replace them...Patriots have been doing it for years, as did the Eagles

    haha..that should be somebodies sig. line.

    I am told this had nothing to with the trade last night.... Nothing to do with Teddy as coach...Far from over and could be real UGLY!

     

    every time someone treats me to one of hIs inane tweets, it is all i can do to hold myself back from replying "YOU CAN COUNT THE GOOD MOVES DARCY MADE ON ONE HAND, BUT THE BEST ONE WAS GETTING STU BARNES FOR YOU- YOU DRUNK DRIVING EX-WIFE BULLYING DOUCHEBAG."

     

    is that too many characters?

  3. SPOILER GDT: CANADA v USA MEN'S SEMIFINAL

    anyone else expect this? we started being talked about like we were the favorites or something after the Russia game- when really we got outplayed through most of it and were lucky to win. I am not surprised we lost t Canada while generating no offense because tat's the kind of team we looked like against the only other really good team we played.

    sorry that was a bit rambling but I am supposed to be working!

    apologies, i have not read this whole thread to see if it was discussed....but does anyone else wonder if the whole team calls him "quickie," or just ryan miller? :lol:

     

    do you think the Slovaks call Michal Handus "handy?"

     

    actually,they probably do.

     

    lol hockey.

  6. OT- Autism

    Posted · Edited by blugold43

    oh...where to begin. on 3/25/12, my son was labelled with "moderate" autism at 4yrs, 4 months. we were devastated of course...he had been on a downward spiral developmentally for 3+ yrs but every concern expressed to our pediatrician was answered with, "he's fine...really, he's fine." he was definitely normal until age 1, but at that point his language and social growth slowed. and by 3 1/2, he was barely functioning in preschool.

     

    he also had terrible dietary issues, including constipation, and stopped gaining weight. all he wanted was milk, which in itself is a huge red flag for the ASD spectrum, but i had no idea.

     

    long story short, we found a D.A.N. dr., who helped us sort out the nutritional problems and the results have been miraculous. if you want to p.m. me I will send you my cell number and i will tell you everything we did and why, and what the results have been. we really have seen terrific results.

     

    thank god you've gotten a diagnosis as early as you have- i am so angry at myself that we didn't choose another path when our pediatrician was not responsive to our concerns. my son's atec score has gone from 40s to 20s in less than 2 years. but then, where might he be now if we had trusted our instincts and gone elsewhere for help? we'll never know, but i think about it all the time and i still feel terribly guilty about it.

     

    the one piece of advice i will give you and everyone reading is to place MAXIMUM emphasis on addressing nutritional concerns. that, more than any therapy he's received, has allowed my son to start the physical/cognitive/social "catch up" process. if tou have a child on the spectrum, seriosuly consider getting every speck of gluten, dairy and soy out of their diet asap. there are valid medical reasons for this and i can't tell you how much it has helped my son.

  8. Worst team in Franchise History

    I can't believe this many people think Darcy is trying to sabotage the season. Ralston is here because Darcy knew he'd feel beholden to him...and Darcy also knew he'd never get anyone with a backbone (Roy) to come coach for him.

     

    Darcy really thinks he can build a winner without going to the bottom of the pile. And as was mentioned, you can't just assume you'll get the toppick because of that stupid childish "lottery". I wish there was some evidence to support the idea that he can build a winner through the draft. If anyone thinks a bunch of Darcy draft picks can take us to the promised land, they need only look back at the past 16 years. He's made a few good veteran acquisitions and that is it.

  9. The Sabres Hockey Hotline with... somebody or other?

    i just watched the "Lost Rings" show about the '90 Bills...relived the agony of that last drive yet again.

     

    But really, even though they didn't get as close to winning I will always feel the '06 Sabres were just as cursed. THAT should have been our year. It still sucks and I almost wish it wouldn't have been brought up!

     

    I taught middle school health for several years after that, and always managed to weave the story of that game 7 into my lesson about MRSA/staph infectons. Even though it was Flyers/Pens country the kids could still feel my pain!

  10. Is Darcy a Weasel?

    That pretty much sums it up.

     

    I think Pegula is crazy. Did anyone else hear the time he called Kevin Sylvester and said that every morning when he finishes breakfast he puts the dog in the back seat of his car and drives him around town, because the dog enjoys it? It just sounded loco.

     

    At this point I think his feelings are hurt and he's going to keep Darcy around just to stick it to everyone who wants him gone. I really think that's the kind of guy he is. He wants to be seen as a white knight and he can't handle criticism. Who the hell blames the fans and the media when the team sucks? That's CRAZY.

    That is catchy. You wonder about the satire aspect, or are they copying what they see in American videos? Amusing nonetheless. Reminded me of this video, which is just *so* ridiculous you wonder if tongue is planted in cheek or not.

    I don't find the announcers on NESN all that biased. They gave Tallinder props on the play to keep it in for a few more seconds and called Savard a diver. Frankly I found the announcers on Tuesday (Jack Edwards and someone else) worse when they were talking about how a Bruins player should cheap shot a Sabres player when they got a chance.

     

    BTW, Mair's back.

    yeah jack edwards is the douchebag on that network. he was decent on espn a few years ago (imo), but as a"homer" he's awful.

    The point I was getting at is this. After you ran one of the races, could you have duplicated your time the next day?

    i wouldn't run the same time the next day, but if i was racing a lesser athlete, i'd make sure i beat him.

     

    besides, it's an entirely different sport. no one races 80-100 times a year.

    Question for you. Do you work out frequently? I don't know about you, but if I really push myself in a run, and try the same run the next day I will be a little slower. Having a day of rest makes all the difference in the world. Especially at this level, a little thing like a day of rest can make a really big difference. Also, take into consideration last night was a really hard fought game, a late start, and if I remember correctly the longest game of the year for this team.

    i have suffered like no one on this board i bet.

     

    i ran college xc...and in 2002-04, (age 37-39) ran 1:16 in the half marathon 3 times, and ran marathons in 2:43, 2:46 and 2:48...not world class, but i trained hard to do it....averaged 105 miles a week for nine straight months from 2003-04. i know about fatigue.

     

    when you know you're getting a 5 day break, if you want it bad enough, you can perform.

    Its sucks how one night ago we were the rested team going against the 'tired' team. And now tonight we ARE the tired team going up against the rested team. Eh, what goes around comes around i guess... However, I do hope that we play as good a game as what the sabres played in last nights thrid period and first half of the overtime. What..the first 2 minutes of the overtime all i heard on the radio was campbell to briere, to numineen, (and another player i forget who though) and the sabres were runnin the show against the sendin twins and whatever d-men they had out ther.. If the sabres have ne thing to build off of is not only the fact that they won but they killed off a crutial penalty against a hott power play unit...

    I think they'll get fired up for this one and play 'balls to the wall'/ 'last game for six days' style and avenge a 5-2 loss on december 19th to these canadiens. Sabres 4-2. come on guys!! Go SABRES!!

    if these guys suck it up and play hard focused hockey for 60 minutes, they'll win by 3 goals.
