Do you believe the Sabres will make the playoffs in 2026?
LTS replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
Their success does not impact my ability to live my life, so hope is a strategy for me. In the end if they miss again, so be it. I'm already converting my "work wall background" from Sabres memorabilia to F1. -
How will you react to no offseason structure changes to FO/Coaching
LTS replied to JP51's topic in The Aud Club
I'll always be a Sabres fan. It's just a question of whether I will invest to be able to watch them play either with my money.. or my time. -
Yep. Take your JAG and put them in a Ferrari, odds are they will look better.

The biggest issues I have with Tuch are: - He often does not use his size in a physical manner. He is very much poke check first and hope he creates a turnover. It's not that he won't hit, but he often does not. - He makes some really stupid passes. But, you can't argue with his production. He scores, he blocks shots, he forces turnovers. I do wonder, if Owen Power did this would people feel the same way? Hmm.

Was water pressure on shower heads part of Project 2025? :eyeroll:

It's not the streaming companies that restrict your viewing. It's the content licensing. The licensing is designed for a single household and they are required to enforce those policies as part of their licensing the content to view. If you use a Fire stick you can just speak to it and it will tell you where something can be streamed from. Not sure about other platforms.

GDT: Buffalo Sabres @ Columbus Blue Jackets, Thursday 4/10 7pm MSG, ESPN +
LTS replied to HOUSE's topic in The Aud Club
๐ A game.. more material for everyone to argue over. They win, people are mad about them winning because of draft picks. They lose, people are mad about them losing because they need to build a winning culture. They get blown up? Does everyone rejoice that there couldn't be a 15th missed season? It's April and it's snowing. I have bigger issues than the Sabres. -
Not that I pay attention to the politics in Erie County, but don't the mayor and county exec not get along so well? Could the County be hosing the City so they would have no choice but then to offer up the building for sale? Wouldn't be surprised if the person who was interested in purchasing it was already known to the County Exec. Certainly going to be interesting and I bet more information will be dug up (or leaked, or faked).

I'll be curious if he doesn't get a few shifts on other lines as well. It's not like coaches don't adjust things in the middle of games. I'm not concerned if he plays on the 4th line either. Nothing that happens for the remainder of this season matters towards next year. So why even spend negative mental energy on it. He gets called up, this is good. Enjoy it along with him.
-
Can't wait, but sadly will miss the game because I will be at a volleyball tournament. I'll try and have my phone watching but the building is usually a faraday cage and the WiFi absolutely trash. Oh well.

Are you referring to Springsteen? If so, no thanks. ๐ Not a fan of his, at all, ever.
-
Definitely. It's what I do as well the majority of the time and I run into quite a few songs where they clearly ran into the next track (or the prior track ran into it). I like to go back and then listen to the full continuation that was implied when the songs were put out.
-
Do you mean people who stream random songs or have a free service? If I play this on Spotify I get the same experience.

It's not really a mentality of if you don't like it. It's more the question of, can the United States change its culture to the point where it can support cultural ideals that are present in other countries. It's not about the past 40 years, it's dates back to the founding of this country and what people's belief of "America" is. Sort of like expecting the tiger to change its stripes. At some point you have to realize it's a tiger and if you wanted it to be a lion, you need to go get a lion. As I read it, the rule is rolling back a ruling that had not even taken effect. It was only put in place in December and set to take effect later this year. The financial industry was already preparing a lawsuit over it. All of that aside, perhaps I am in the minority who thinks it must just be advisable to not overdraft your accounts or expect to have access to money you do not have.

Do you trust that the United States society and political culture to properly handle the money required for universal health care and free education? I have a rather bleak outlook on that front. I think the very thing that made us "America" is the thing that drives the problems we face today. We wanted freedom from a great many things. This is the phrase that permeates most people's minds still today. We grew up as a society that welcomed those who worked hard to make a way for themselves and to do so without having to be concerned for others. We fostered a culture of take your slice of the pie, or take the whole thing if you can. That culture is what your ideals are going to go up against. I don't believe in the United States to succeed unless the minds of its citizens change drastically. Granted there are a great many people in this country who do not subscribe to "me above all else" but it's not enough and they are not in the positions that matter. They fail to make it into those power positions largely because they lack the mentality to wade through that steaming mess. There are those that try, they find themselves worn down and ultimately subjugated to the culture of business and politics of the US. Compromise, bribe, what's in it for me? How do I remain elected? All so I can represent the business interests of large corporations who will give me a nice post-election job, etc. I don't see either the Democrats or Republicans changing enough. I don't see the majority of the population changing enough. Hell, if the country cut the military spending it could probably fund universal health care and free education without even having to raise taxes. At the end of the day I think the culture of a country's citizens is what allows certain ideals to float to the top. It's why I often think that I would be happier in another country because my ideals do not align with those of the US. It's a question I would ask of you, rather than fight to institute those changes here, why not move to a country that aligns with what you believe?

If all it takes is me not paying attention for them to win, then I will gladly make that sacrifice. if it takes me being out of town away from my family? not so much, sorry. ๐

My commentary on dictators is not in relation to the United States Constitution but simply on the concept of dictators. No one agrees on the Constitution or the rule of law, that's why we have so many damn lawyers. The US is bloated with people challenging those concepts continually. Making a disagreement manageable is done by engaging in a debate with an open mind and not resorting to name calling, expletive, childish ranting. it's something that our society is not very good at because it's continually encouraged to be that way. At the end of the day, regardless of all your talking points, the truth is that Trump won the election. It says a lot about the state of this nation that so many people could find value in his statements. I have no words for those who still continue to support him. As for those who have regret, they are representative of where our society has been heading. Sheeple who never take a moment to think for themselves. Should we modify the swear filter? Respect that its put in place by the mods please. The US has been a laughing stock to many people outside of the US. I'm just glad that it's so obvious now that a caveman can see it. (not inferring you are a caveman, but rather the general population).

The Trump Tariffs: Economic War

Like every other bully... -
So your answer to the extreme right is that we should have extreme left? Extremism is the wrong answer, every time. What amazing far left policies are you proposing?
-
Good on those who still have the energy to rehash the same comments about this team. I don't know how you do it. I've been away for a week and I didn't feel like I missed a thing with regards to the Sabres. Logged in here and the same discussions are happening in thread after thread. That's not a knock at the posters, that's a knock at the franchise basically giving the fans that are left nothing to talk about.

Damn, he's Hawkeye?
