  1. I grill turkey burgers.  

     

    I think that this whole steak and burger fascination is an old guy thing. 

     

    It's like pickup trucks.

     

    Inefficient, unnecessary, and unhealthy.

     

    BUT STEAK IS THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD!

     

    Get with the times, homeys.  Fall out of love with your cows, FFS.

  2. I'm not outraged.

     

    I'm not spewing hyperbole.

     

    If Ovechkin did this, I'd totally forgive him, maybe even chuckle, seeing nobody was hurt.

     

    O'Reilly is nothing more than a drunk driving Pominville.

     

    The population of O'Reillyville just lacks that clean spit image.

  3. You've been embracing your enemies lately. It's beautiful.

    I get where you where coming from, horse tanker.  Sorry, Hoss.  I respect what you had to say about anonymity.

     

    I think I remember when you revealed your age, and you were kind of goaded into it.  You may have volunteered the other stuff concerning journalism, but you are within your rights to keep a separate profile entirely, in my opinion.  Maintaining a profile here could be great undercover work for a real journalist.  Nothing bugs me more that seeing JW at the end of every post, the sanctimonious tosser.  Tweet, tweet.  JW.  What I respect is that you can integrate here, take your licks, and in my mind, earn respect as a peer.  ######in' JW takes his toys and goes home, as soon as anyone else doesn't treat him like the messiah.

     

    Gogol Bordello, man.   :worthy:

     

    Grinner only shows up every so often, and he used to make me grimace.  

     

    One time, he called me gay.  Not "a person who is gay," mind you.  Long story short, I got offended.  

     

    Nobody remembers, don't you, nobody.  I doubt anybody else remembers, do you, anybody else?

     

    I never thought GR was funny, just trying too hard.  I think he's actually starting to connect with his target audience now.  It's like we're growing up together.  Close together.  Maybe we're growing on each other.  It's like we are hugging loosely. 

     

    ###### you though, grinreaper, you ass kissing wannabe clever tweeting imbecile.   :wub:

     

    Edit: spelled imbecile wrong.  are these little confessions really necessary? 

  4. I didn't know that they listed active users here. Maybe that's why he was suspended?  :bag:

    Even though you are my long time arch nemesis, ever since the Big Showdown back in '13, the likes of which this board will never see (the mods deleted it), and will never see again (Fight of the Century), you are starting to come up with some great one-liners.

     

    Respect.

     

    Tee to the hee.  :flirt:

  5. To be fair to Terry, he's from friggin Carbondale. I'm just happy he doesn't say racist things every day. 

    And, he's a multi generation man who worked in the anthracite mines.  I think his father was some sort of mid level manager in the mines.  Pegula's biographical details are sketchy.  

     

    Forgive me for a moment while I don some shiny headwear.  It helps me think.

     

    When I hear Carbondale, I think Scranton.  Like when people hear Tonawanda, and think Buffalo.  The associations that I make when I hear Carbondale are anthracite, and the mafia.  Do you think there might be some connections there, with Pegula and coal and the mafia?

    Specifically, the Bufalino family.  Mafia is too inclusive.  #Billzmaffiosso

  6. I well and truly have no idea what you're talking about most of the time.

    Terry's a real straight shooter. If he gets confused because one guy is called Black even though his skin is lighter than another guy, and he thinks they ought to change names, he'll say so. He's not afraid of big decisions like these. My guess is that Ted Black wasn't willing to make the necessary changes to streamline operations under the new corporate structure. It's a lack of synergy that ulimately did him in.

     

    Two first names ultimately not such a bad thing for Russ Brandon? Tim Murray may have broken that glass ceiling. My guess is that having Rene Robert up in the rafters doesn't hurt.

  7. You know, something Terry said back in '14 has stuck with me, and might even offer some insight into the real reason behind Ted Black's departure. To quote Terry:

     

    "I'm a little confused. You know, I'm sitting on the stage between Mayor Brown and Ted Black, yet I look over there, and I'm wondering, is something backward here?"

     

    In the end, especially after his exposure to the culture at the Bills, perhaps Terry just found the confusion to be too much. Too confusing to have Whaley and Black in the same room on a regular basis. How would anyone get any work done, having to ponder that mystery day after day?

     

    Too confusing, indeed, but I smell more chaos just over the horizon. Russ Brandon - two first names. Here's hoping Kim will be able to talk him through it.

  8. I researched this... the wal mart grill is 24.95 now... most wholesale fish guys will sell to you if and only if you say you have a food truck now,  meat guys are little more d$ckish but will also load into truck or car  trunk next to where any lot where a meat truck operates or could oprate as you need to take this to another location to freeze or prepare etc... they have many restrictions  (not allowed to drive or stop in residential neighborhoods etc..) and want your business if you give them plausible deniability since food trucks aren't in the yellow pages and obviously offer cash.. you will save hundreds on a grill and hundreds monthly on food and eat unpoisoned with preservatives .. get a person al bakery as your friend as well and philosophicly decide on water etc.. stay out of markets or at least read ingredients

     

     

    I  hope I am not stupid by posting this..  I might lose this trick if its talked about too much.. we all should be able to buy wholesale considering the a$$ f$ck$ng we get at the monopoly markets, none worse than wh$le F$$ds.. please keep this to yourself as I will delete this in about a week.

    You are awesome K8.  

     

    If you're relying on a grill for fast cash, that's a skill in and of itself.  Cheers.

     

    I wanted to mention just burning some lilac or apple down to coals, but that would be like making an angle cut freehand with a ragged bit of flint.

     

    I've got a feeling that this thread has long legs.  Check in starts in the first few pages.  You have made your reservation, Monsieur Prisoner.

  9. LOL Grant is a good guy and very willing to help and offer good suggestions.

     

    The original grates that came on my grill lasted a few years. The replacements they gave me under warranty which were different, lasted one year and were complete garbage. Now my bro in law shows up with my grill but it came with SS grates and flavorizer bars. So it's the same grill I have now lol. If you are buying one of these Webers do yourself a favor and get the special edition model that comes with the ss grates but the enamel lid.

     

    I have to say I agree with you about the cooking properties of the cast iron. But the problem is the grates are porcelain coated cast iron. And I have found that combo sucks as it always rusts. Over different grill companies too.

    So now I'm burning on these ss grates and honestly my biggest fear was searing. It really is no issue, especially on my e330 with sear burner and clean up is so much better and durability is unquestionably better.

     

    I would agree with this. But if you can spring for what I'm talking about, long term expect this grill to last 15 years.

    And outside of the grate issues (like my 330) the e210 is great choice a that price point!

    So if that's what you can do, do it!

    Thx.

     

    The iron grate is flatter too, which I thought would be better with loose burger meat,  That was the idea, but I've never actually had a problem with meat falling through the grate.  The straight up dependability of a grill like you're talking about, like an e330, is kind of iconic.  Stainless steel, as least in bicycle parts is a huge virtue.

     

    Good advice.

  10. It looks like Terry Pegula came into the situation needing an Alternate Gov.

     

    He was originally thinking that Ted Black was da Alternate Gov.  Dis guy good, he says.

     

    Then he met this guy at da Bills, and he was like, wowee zowee, dis guy is da buziness!

     

    He agrees wit everyting I say!  Everyting!!!

     

    So he say to Black, why you not be more like Brandon?

     

    And he pester, Brandon do this, why you do that?

     

    And before the moment when Black explodes into the inevidible, "THEY ARE DIFFERENT SPORTS!," They reach a mutual agreement to part ways amicably.

     

    "That's a great idea, Terry!"

     

    Move aside Ted Black.  Russ Brandon can handle this. 

  11.  

     

    Grant is the man! at Ed Youngs. Cool dude and knows his Weber stuff.

     

    Weber Performer in that range. 

     

    He's the dude I talked to!

    good info guys thanks. one question on the webers. the E models seem to be cheaper compared to the S models. the only difference I am seeing is the the E has ceramic iron cooking grates and the S has stainless steel. is the S models worth the extra money? or is it more a preference thing?

     

    He said this, which makes sense, that the porcellained iron has a shorter life than the stainless grate.  Probably, the first time you replace the grate 4-5 years down the road with regular use, you'd be paying the difference on the stainless model.  

     

    Sometimes, I think, well, I'll probably be able to afford alot of things in 5 years that I can't afford now, so the cast iron doesn't bother me much.  Plus, I like its cooking properties, specifically, heat retention, just from my own kitchen experience.

  12. Chimney.  Starter.  Buy one.  

    Ed Youngs Hardware in Williamsville has the best selection of Weber.  They do a lot of internet business through Amazon.  Just about any part you need.  I'm looking at a Q, myself.  It seems like a better investment because every part that might break or wear out could be replaced cheaper than a new grill.

  13. Drane always spoke highly of Black and claimed to communicate with him.

    My hypothesis is Drane is not Drane. Rather he is Black's highly sophisticated anti-marketing construct designed to get the hardcore fan on board with Pegula's decisions and set the table for damage control for Pegula's failures.

    Witness the success of his Bylsma lobby and his ability to deflect attention away from Pegula in the Penn State scandal.

     

    Pegula was never completely comfortable with this strategy and drane's inability to avoid getting banned was the last straw.

    I suspect one of our newer posters is Russ Brandon and will be monitoring this situation closely.

    Of course Drane is Ted Black.  I've been telling all who cared to listen since 2012.  You all said I wore tinfoil on my head.  Now, who's wearing the tinfoil, funnyman?

     

    That is to say, I agree with you.

  14. Kane needs to have a true playmaker as a Center. He is a shooter, a goal scorer and doesn't pass all that much.

    If you make the playoffs, you will have a warrior on your team. He will play as hurt as the doctors will let him. VERY high pain threshold.

     

    He will be disruptive in the room and his act will wear thin is what I am guessing. He'll probably net 25-30 goals is what I am guessing.

     

    So, he says I am guessing.  That means its conjecture, projection, or even, a shot in the dark.  He says this up front. 

     

    Here is what follows.

     

     

    Complete conjecture.

     

    I agree.

     

    A lot of guessing going on here.

     

    So, Inkman and buno, that is redundant.  Instead of placing your own bet, you feign outrage at a bet being placed at all.

     

    Sabres Punch, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.  You might be stating that with humorous irony, because he said he was guessing twice, yet folks are jumping on him for guessing.

     

    Ducky, Hawerchuk kicks ass.  Long live the Duck!

     

     

    So we don't have to worry about him getting caught with Oxycontin at the border?

     

    Teehee.  Nah.  Hockey players are like the boys next door.  In Canada, there aren't any problems.

  15. Anyone tried Hamburg Brewing Co?

     

    Had their saison. It wasn't bad, but it tasted like cloves. I'd like to try their IPA.

     

    It's tough for local brews to compare with Southern Tier, for me. Not only did I go to school with the brewers, I also like everything about them and their beer- most of it.

     

    A couple sips of the creme brulee, mokah, or 2x milk stout is impressive, but cloyingly rich. I like their recent releases, and think they do session beers quite well.

    Should I tailgate outside the beer garden with cans of Milwaukee's Best Ice or just meet up with everyone afterwards at the arena?
