I looked at the TV while waiting for my son after his varsity game. I saw tons of blue in the lower bowl.. the wrong color blue. Until the cost of securing a ticket in Buffalo surpasses the cost of securing a ticket in Toronto this will not change. There may be a few less fans but it won't be enough. If anything, the level of competition between the two teams will makes the games more desirable. As such, a Leafs fan will be willing to shell out a bit more for the Buffalo/Toronto game because it's likely to feature two top teams. I can't blame STH for selling those tickets. I just hate the fact that it happens because it's disgusting to hear that much support inside your home team's building.

We're in the 2018-19 season. 2019-2020 2020-2021 - contracts 2021-2022 Projecting three seasons out is crazy especially with the contract situation coming up. The landscape of the league most probably will change dramatically.

Good.. .and scary stuff. I weep the future when reality is augmented all the time.

I just realized the game is on NBCSN... Now I am not upset in missing it. I will imagine they will never shut up about the Leafs. It will be excruciating to listen to. Even if the Sabres do something excellent it will only be because the Leafs made a mistake. Bah.

So, The Athletic publishes this. They are responsible for what goes into their production. Just saying it's a very disappointing type of reporting to come from a place that is supposedly better than others. Hopefully it doesn't become the norm.

The tin foil cap?

That's the real question. The Pegulas have also built Harbor Center. They have built the facility where the scouting combine happens. They've been hosting international level hockey events. But yeah... 26th.

My entire reading of the game boiled down to this. It was playoff officiating and the Sabres need to learn how to play through that. The hit on Okposo though.... how that was not called. Also, it's as if the Sabres were running the Predators game plan and I would imagine the Predators know how that plan works. They knew where the Sabres were going with the puck most of the time. If the Sabres want to beat Nashville they will need to run their own version of the Predators game plan that Housley brought to Buffalo.

I'll miss this entire game.. unless I stand in the bar at the rink during my son's HS game. ? Just win baby. The Leafs are a team you can never lose to, especially at home. It's disgusting listening to their fans in the Sabres home rink.

The market? THE MARKET? You mean the market that consistently ranks near the top in television rankings for national games not involving their own team? I can't wait to go rip this article to death on The Athletic. Other than that, this is the kind of BS journalism I wanted to avoid. Let's throw some garbage about there just to make content. UGH.

Agreed. I would try FB. You'll still get scammers but at least you can see a persons profile.

I don't know about that. My great-grandmother lived to 98 and she was moving around pretty good until about 6 months before she died. I don't want to sit around all day just waiting for the end, but if I can live some kind of life, I'm in for the long haul.

I'd have to find the article, but I am seeing other reports that say they did not. It appears they knew there was a video and they asked the police for it but were never given the video. So, now the video is out. How is it that this guy was not charged given the evidence? It's all around a really bad situation. I am still tired of hearing of this crap in the NFL.

The entire concept is farcical. If it passes I will move from this state even if it means I must get a divorce. That said, were I in the situation where they asked me to turn over my social media account information I would simply say that I do not have a social media accounts. How are they going to prove that I do? What department will be in charge of investigating and proving it?

I don't have much to add. 94 is a long time to live. I'll leave it at that.

Is it good for the Chiefs? The article I read this morning said that the NFL and Chiefs had seen the tape and knew what happened. If this continues to be accurate I don't know how anyone can support the NFL in any way. They allow an abuser to continue to earn his paycheck in the name of the almighty dollar. If you continue to support the NFL then you, too, are saying their policies on this are okay and that you support their decision making to put the needs of their bottom line above the needs of a victim of abuse. I'm so tired of hearing about it, especially with the NFL.

This is not good logic. His value and draft rank is determined by the team that must select him and their perception of his talent and fit to their team relative to the rest of the draft field. Reinhart would not have been the 2nd overall pick if he was drafted 1 year later or 1 year earlier.

I thought there was a statement made by Phil that he's dealing with a non-injury related issue. I don't recall when I heard it. He was fairly cut and dry on it as if it was "this is the answer, don't ask anything else".

It's not just politics. It's a microcosm of the Internet and perhaps even the trend that real life is heading.

When you manage something there are behaviors you let slide because most of the time you don't really consider it to be worth the effort to try and address. Every so often, a person will point out that those behaviors are a concern. It's at that point you have to make a decision, do I act upon that concern knowing that I had the same concern already or do I tell that person to get lost? SDS chose to act upon it. Your continued tirade about it is exactly why it probably was not addressed in the past. Overall, as I see it, SDS made a request of the membership. You can choose to honor it or not. In his opinion it was time to take an action and he took it. I think he addressed it fairly well and tried to provide substance. He's trying to apply what he considers a REASONABLE control. You are the one who keeps bringing up the other stuff. Perhaps SDS will choose to act upon it now that you've made a request of it. You never know!

Like hot dogs.

No, I can read just fine. I read what SDS posted. I read the request, I read the reason, I understood the reason and I had no problem with it. I'm not the one who has to put the effort into making this place run. I don't get the complaints that the moderators get. I'm not so bothered by it that I can't handle a simple request. If you don't want to abide by it, don't. Whatever.

Wow. You are going out of your way here. The request was to stop bypassing the filter, not to stop swearing. You can use all the words you'd like that get caught in the filter, that's why it's there. If you bypass it you are just being a jerk about trying to get around the filters that SDS has in place already.

Don't eat it cold? That's all I got for you.
