  2. Are you sure? The state of Virginia? or the VA?
  3. Jeb Bush hired Paul Wolfowitz as his foreign policy advisor for his campaign for those keeping score.
  4. They are often shooting from good spots. but there is no screen.
  5. Dear Sabrespace Forum, I never thought it would happen to me. I was on a defensive pairing with a young man from Kelowna.....
  6. What did you do? C'mon. You must have done something to get in the Notebook dog house. There is something you missed for sure.
  7. Anne Frank, and the Frank family, was turned down for a US visa. Something to think about: http://www.reuters.com/article/2007/02/14/us-annefrank-letters-idUSN1430569220070214#HmyajvjLmsX2tVYf.97
  8. Peter Piper dies. He dies. Think twice, okay.
  9. Staff with his 6th and 7th last night. 2 goals and an assist on 8 shots, ends his slump.
  10. Bowman says return the blueline to where it was in the 80s making the O zone smaller. More room in the neutral zone, less bottled play in the middle, longer passes in transition, less offsides, faster entries, more shots on the rush.
  11. I've been adding an R to ceviche. For years I've been calling it cerviche.........like ......Ser-vay-chay You Buffalo people love your R's. I was told. Not only did I add an R, but I bounced it too. Ser-r-Vay-Chay From now on I'm calling it RRaw Fish Saaalad.
  12. I'm still angry today. Screw it. I don't need to be rational on this one; I just hate the rule. I don't need to be rational on this one I just hate the rule.
  13. Ennis has turned into a solid defensive player. He hits, checks,steals. I'm not saying he's lockdown, but he's a solid in all zones. He's putting it all out there, just not scoring of late.
  14. I disagree. obstruction away from the puck on entries on short handed teams isn't going to get called. Ever. And it happens on every entry. Linesmen have a tremendous sense for the game. You can get pulled across, impeded, pushed. They've always let some things go. A guy jumps to save his legs, It doesn't get called. That's discretion, no linesmen has that quick a call.
  15. I don't think he's a color guy. But sure, he's got a place. Somewhere.
  16. It's offside, but like icing, there should be some discretion. Taking away all discretion from linesman is bad for the game. From what I saw, Ennis is getting obstructed without the puck at the blue line. Defender sticks out leg. Instead of keeping a skate down and potentially getting jackknifed, he jumps. 9 out 10 times, a linesman lets it go. This changes the game IMO.
  17. Watched the broadcast late last night. I get the sense RJ is trying to set up Rob Ray for more insight. Maybe some moves are under-foot. What is the weak side?
  18. Me too. I'm just not excited about the idea of Dallas getting another cup.
  19. Jim Nill has assembled a hell of a team. Every line can hurt you offensively and is defensively responsible. Having said that. I really believe Buffalo will be every bit as good as Dallas in a years time.
  20. I really disagree on this. Max always had his head down and was constantly putting his teammates offside because of it. Ennis is a much more complete player, sure Ennis was offside on the disputed Samson goal (albeit airborne to keep from getting jackknifed) But Ennis also created it away from the puck by going to net and screening the goaltender. That's a play Max would never make.
  21. The burn on this one was Lindy was going to call the time-out anyway. It was a what the hell challenge. Ennis didn't have a skate down, but he didn't have a skate down anywhere, he jumped airborne to get through obstruction. A good lineman isn't going to blow that down. It wasn't a mistake. It just sucks. seriously, put an asterisk next to all his records.
  22. No VY Cannis Majoris, that's for sure.
  23. No. You can only wish on the first star you see at night. And you never see the sun at night to wish upon. So, not a star.
