JJ -- if the thread has gone off the rails, and I don't think it has, you are one of the top 2 culprits, with at least 10 posts in the last 1.5 pages bemoaning the slights you've suffered and demanding an apology that you know isn't forthcoming.
Let it go.
I may have let it go off the rails. But you sure haven't helped keeping things organized and civilized.

There, are you all happy with my new avatar?

So don't respond... let him have his way and you stand pat with your's... you have that choice not to respond. I respect your stance... don't like it but respect it. PS My second favorite NFL team is the 9ers, but not sure I would put their helmet on as my Avatar on twobillsdrive... its your choice and again I respect.. just don't respond because of the Sabres history with Carolina... we are likely gonna pick at you... just saying... If it was another team other than Toronto probably wouldn't be such a big deal.
I respect the fact you don't like my stance. Always open to everybody's opinion. I'd love to understand your opinion.
I do understand the deep hatred for Raleigh. But I live here now, so it's tough to misunderstand. As a diehard Sabres fan, I completely understand. And next year my extreme fandom will go back to Buffalo. And it will always be with me until they don't make the playoffs and my 1B and 1C does. Then I'll support them until the next year.

I don't disagree with you on a fair amount of stuff you post... it is the tone... question can you change? That may answer the question about O'Reilly as well.
Was this directed at me? I can change my tone, and I have. I have apologized a few times in recent days for comments I have made. But, my tone and my comments about O'Reilly will not change.
Neither will my comments about Raleigh. They won't beat the Caps this year, but I do support them because they are in the playoffs. Once they lose, I'll be back to supporting Buffalo 100%. And it's pretty obvious the Panthers are making the playoffs next year............... if the Sabres can't do it, you all can bust my balls for supporting Sunrise.

JJ, why do you insist on poking the bear...
I'm not poking the bear. People are poking me because they don't like my avatar. And I have repeatedly said the Sabres are my team and will always be my team. LGR is poking me looking for a response and I've given up explaining myself.

Of course I'll be banned or warned based on this thread but nobody will hold LGR4GM accountable. Congrats SabreSpace.

Good, you're a bandwagon Canes fan who can't prove Risto wouldn't still be crap against mediocre v good players. You're not backing up anything you say. Put me on ignore... because...
I will always be a Sabres fan, you piece of *****. If you can't take my word for it, you're more of a closed minded ***** than I thought you were.

I'm not ignorant of anything. You're a fair weather fan that likes the bandwagon. Enjoy the ride but your liking of Carolina makes you not Sabres fan. Sabres fans don't like Carolina. So enjoy your bandwagon.
Yea because they are garbage. No sabre fan who lived through 06 is gonna cheer for Carolina.
They're in the playoffs, the Panthers and Sabres aren't.
I'm sorry I live here and you don't so I root for the home team. Stop being a dick and stop scrutinizing me. For the 25th time, I'll say it again. The Sabres will always be my team, the Panthers will be my 1B team. I'm supporting my local team because my 1A and 1B teams are playing golf.
If that's not good enough for you...... I'm sorry. At this point I don't care what you think.
Just now, LGR4GM said:No, brandon montour is better. Go look at the advanced metrics.
Also what a lazy argument. "Risto plays against great players and sucks so he's better than a guy playing against good players who doesn't suck"
Show me proof he played against the best. Then show me what happens when he doesn't. Until then, it's just a lazy argument.
Might be time to put you on ignore. You're starting to piss me off.

Montour is better than Risto.
The drop between Risto and the next rhd is a hell of a lot less than ROR to Mitts
Are you joking? Dahlin is already better than Risto. Defensively, offensively, and any other vely.
Montour is not better than Risto. His +/- is obviously better, but Risto plays 70 minutes against every team's best players.

No I think you're a bandwagon fan.
I've made several comments about my commitment to being a Sabres fan. Apparently you ignored them all.

If this is your Top 4 this team is screwed. Dahlin is the only one that should be in the Top 4. Montour, Pilut and Borgen would be much better choices amongst the defenseman the Sabres have. There seems to be a disconnect on the board on what type of defenseman the Sabres want. Some want Risto and Bogo who will chase the puck all around the defensive zone hitting everyone, while others want Pilut and Montour who will retrieve the puck and facilitate a zone exit ASAP. I fall into the later category.
Fair points. I just don't see Pilut as proven yet. Any team would take McCabe, Risto and Bogo in a heartbeat. Of course they'd also take Dahlin..... but there is no way in hell Buffalo gives him up.

Forgot about Capuano. I guess he wouldn't be a bad second option. He would certainly be better than any rookie coaches.

It sure would be nice to have a coach before the draft.

Stop being one and you won't get called one.
Sorry you don't like my fanatic support. I've said several times the Sabres will alway be my #1 team. I'm sorry you're too ignorant to recognize the several times I mentioned it. I have a 1A team, a 1B team and a 1C team. My 1A and 1B teams didn't make the playoffs.
Sorry you're too closed minded to think people might have other teams to root for.
56 minutes ago, LGR4GM said:I was basically equal between Nashville, Raleigh and tampa for years. You never witnessed me change my profile pic and actively cheer on any of them.
Further, no Sabre fan under any circumstances should cheer for Carolina. So I'll continue to mock your bandwagon love affair with a team I will forever hate.
Again, sorry you're too closed minded to accept that others might root for other teams when the Sabres are a laughing stock and hold the longest playoff drought in the entire league.

And stop calling me a Carolina fan. I'm just rooting for them because they are my new home team. I know very little about them. I know Sunrise and Buffalo like the back of my hand. Just stopped rooting for them for the time being because neither of those teams made the playoffs. Maybe by next year I'll have a better grasp on Raleigh, but not right now.
I'm actually equidistant to Raleigh and Nashville. So I could be rooting for both.

If risto is your top 2 d, you're a trash team.
He's clearly uncoachable or an idiot. Either way he's a #4 defender.
We have defensive issues because of risto. As a Canes fan you should know the value of trading a "top" d.
I don't think Risto is a #4 D-Man. He has terrible +/- numbers because he plays 70 minutes a game against every team's top line.
He may not be the all-star we wanted him to be, but he certainly is a top 2 or 3, and very cheap.
He's not the D-man you build your team around, but he certainly isn't the problem right now. Bogo, Risto, Dahlin and McCabe and the top 4 going forward. Botterill needs to work on 5-8. That's where the problem is.
-
I think moves can be made without trading Risto. If you've got defensive issues, you don't unload you top 2 D-man if you can pick up more help without trading him.
Duchene? Keeping Risto, re-signing the Ballerina and adding Duchene would be a tremendous upgrade.
Losing the Ballerina and not signing a highly touted center will kill the team next year.

Well this thread has gone to hell.
Still looking for an apology from Hoss for accusing me of being a racist. That's all I want.

The outcome of the game is irrelevant to my point of anthem singers setting the tone for the game.

i can think of one particular reason nobody gets psyched to watch the super bowl. i know a lot of old-timers wouldn’t get psyched and, great scott, nor would i.
I was only in my teens and have since gotten over being over-patriotic. But back then the Super Bowl was a big deal, and the combination of Whitney's performance on top of the patriotism from the start of the Persian Gulf war.......... it's really tough to beat. Do a search for best anthem performances and that is one of the first that pops up.
Just curious, what is that reason?

We don't call it The Great Satan for nothing, eh.
Sorry, JJ. I think most anthem singers are OK at the craft. I am not in favour of Nationalist expressions at sporting events.
That's cool. We all have our opinions. I just find the better anthem singers can set the tone for a game. If you're sitting down for a game and want to get motivated, there's nothing better than a die hard anthem performance.
Seriously, how can anybody (well Chicago is done now) not watch Cornelison and just get completely psyched to watch a Blackhawks playoff game? How can anybody not watch Whitney Houston and get super psyched for Super Bowl XXV?

Not sure if that was a snarky comment. If it wasn't, I apologize and thank you for the compliment. I'm trying to keep this thread fairly sincere and I think you notice it. Trying to keep the drama out of it.

nope. was just a reference to francis scott key. it had zero to do with your comments.
You did call me a racist based on a comment I made about a black woman.......... with no proof of any racist comments........ did you not?
Dammit, why is my thread getting derailed with no mod control?
