  1. Your opinion is certainly one thing. What I am not quite following is why you are singling out "men" in your post and some idea of what a "man" should or should not be. "Men" are all kinds of things... The discussion has progressed and I am glad for that, but the bolded statement just doesn't have a place in it.
  2. I don't know about that. Between the increasing racial tension and the increasing international tension I do fear some level of escalation where someone looks at me as a white man who subscribes to that nutjob's platform simply because I am white.
  3. It's a good quote. However, I don't want to die now.. I want to die later.
  4. You could. You could get a chromecast. There are other technologies as well.
  5. Yeah.. that's about 6 minutes from my house. F'ing people.. I'm always a fan of do unto others. I'm cool if they leave those people out with no food and water too. Ugh.. makes my blood boil.
  6. Didn't mean to imply that Stroker Ace was my favorite Burt movie.. definitely not. The name of that movie is just what pops into my head when I hear his name. Many others as well of course.

  8. Well... I didn't read it because I don't give a crap about Jalen Ramsey and at this point I feel like I've already heard his name too much for someone as pathetic as he clearly is. He's a friggin blowhard and who's got time for that?
  9. Injuries happen... You almost said it best... "he's never played a full NHL season" only the truth is he's never played ANY NHL game. He needs to play them to adjust. He's a hockey player and hockey players play hockey. Injuries happen and you can't live your life sheltered in the corner playing "what if". I mean, Eichel's first ankle sprain happened at practice. Perhaps he shouldn't have had to practice just in case?
  10. Sadly you need to register with viewpoint to get to the additional photos but it looks like an incredible spot. Certainly, geographically, it would be something I would want. Hoping for the best for you.
  11. I am way more positive about this than most. I think the people who expected rapid changes are most disappointed. The situation was compounded by mistakes being made. All of it perfectly normal. I do find it interesting those who rate their job with the Bills higher than the Sabres. It's as though the teams output on the field/rink is being used to determine their effectiveness as owners. I wonder where people will be after this season when the Bills are in the basement of the NFL. Amazing what one miraculous event can do for people's reality goggles. I wouldn't give them A's... I won't until the Bills are moved downtown and there is a thriving entertainment district on the Buffalo waterfront. But they are doing a pretty good job, especially now that they stopped trying to be in the public eye.
  12. Define "won". I didn't know who he was before and now my entire perception of him is as a waste of oxygen. Or anything else... I'll remember his name when I hear about him getting arrested in 5 years for something stupid.
  13. Damn.. Victor is in my backyard.. didn't see anything on the news. Bastards...
  14. Stroker Ace. Definitely a Burt Reynolds fan...
  15. You must be lucky... DSL is so temperamental as a technology. My Spectrum connection is pretty solid, and it's also why it makes sense for me to have the cable package. But clearly as you are Frontier, streaming is good.. as long as Frontier holds up for you.
  16. Who is your ISP? Frontier, Greenlight, or Spectrum?
  17. So it was Thursday when you got home? No excuses. I often prefer the company of dogs to people. It's terrible news and you have my sympathy on the tough road ahead. Man's best friend for a reason.
  18. Well.. the US is embroiled in a political controversy the likes which has never been seen. The brash and public display by the President has led to an equal or greater response by his opponents. In turn, this has led to an escalation of chest thumping by anyone involved with either side. It's brinkmanship and it's downright concerning if not scary about what could happen given the right spark. I'd love to give the benefit of the doubt but as the saying goes, a person is smart, people are stupid. Once the mob mentality gets going it will be hard to stop.
  19. I suppose I will come across some reference to that op-ed piece eventually. I agree with you 100%. Their actions are only compounding the problem rather than dealing with it.
  20. There is the truth and then there are the workarounds. The truth is, you need to pay for a television service if you live in the Buffalo Sabres market and want to watch games live. There are no legal workarounds to this. An unlocked FireStick is illegal, not that you "unlocked" it. But because you are using an application that acts a search engine for people illegally streaming the content. As you indicated, hit or miss. Usually because those people are getting shutdown by their ISP for illegally streaming content. ? The VPN solution is also against the terms of service. Since most VPN services are well known (at least reputable ones) their output points on the Internet are also well known. It is possible (not saying probable) that NHL.tv could choose to block access from those IPs. This has happened with other streaming services and people attempting to bypass geographical restrictions. Sharing of logins, also against terms of service. I am amazed that MSG doesn't block access to their streaming when the same account is logged in twice from different IP addresses. You run that risk. Even with NHL.tv and VPN you will lose out on nationally broadcast games. The good news is that if you have the basic package from Spectrum you can still get NBCSN (or at least you could last year) because they don't filter it out of their base package (even though it's not included). This is why I opted to add the lowest level of service to my Internet account with them.. it included MSG and NBCSN and cost me 8 more a month. You might be able to swing the same deal. Now I can use MSG>Go as well and watch the games on cable when I am home.
  21. It's a CSS issue. The color you are seeing on the embed is the background color of the site. It appears to be a problem with embedly which is probably a component the forum software uses to embed external sources into the page. The frame is not setting a color and then the actual embed box is setting it's color to transparent. The end result is that you see the background color scheme of the website recreated in the embedly-card box. I don't know the forum software well enough to know if you can inject a custom CSS into the site to override the embedly CSS.
  22. Or it came from something else... could you test positive for eating meat from an animal that was given the drugs? (I'm not suggesting.. just wondering). I'd like to believe him but given every edge athletes try and get you always wonder what "new" thing someone tried and finally got caught.
  23. Ahhh all the promise and hope of a young Sabre wearing #72. At least Lindy Ruff isn't here...
  24. Honestly? I just don't even pay attention anymore. I just assume he says something stupid that insults or offends someone every 3 hours or less. I feel like even pointing out his insanity is giving him more attention than he deserves. I'm resigned now to feelings of disgust with Republicans for putting him forth as a candidate and Democrats for not putting forth anyone who could beat him. You ever watch a commercial that's so awful that you wonder how anyone could have approved it? Then you think, how bad were the other options that THIS was the option they chose to put forward. That's how I feel about this whole situation.
