Why? The Pentagon basically admitted they exist within the past year and the military knows they exist because they stalk their nuclear submarines on a regular basis. Also, where do you think the name for the band "Foo Fighters" came from? That's what pilots flying in WW II called UFO's because they were all over the place. https://www.history.com/news/wwii-ufos-allied-airmen-orange-lights-foo-fighters I get people want to believe none of this actually exists so they don't have to process what this means for everything from our place in the universe to their religious beliefs to a whole host of other things, but people aren't going to have much of a choice soon...there is a reason for this about face pivot from the US Government in the past few years on this, and all I will say is it should be an interesting decade going forward as the veil is pulled away a little more each year with what they tell the public.

Think that's interesting? Look up the Battle of Los Angeles.

Balloons don't do what the pilots that shot it down claim it was doing(at least the Alaska one). Also pretty sure highly trained military pilots could easily discern if these objects were balloons. Always baffles me when people actually believe most of these reports...as if Military pilots would write a report about a balloon they saw. It would be like saying a trained vet wouldn't be able to identify a Black Lab properly if you brought it to his office.

This team sucks lately. Not sure what's going on with them but if they don't want any pressure of a playoff race keep playing the way they have the last 3 games.

Irritating the Sabres are a much better road team than home team this year...on pace to set the franchise record for road winning percentage.

Quinn scored an amazing goal against Minnesota and was the best player on the ice against Carolina...not sure what you are talking about.

Been outscored 12-3 last 2 games. They need to get it together. They looked like they hadn't played in 10 days...just atrocious. Even going up 2-0 was kinda lucky, they only had 3 shots in the period.

At least go with Andreychuk if you are using a player from that era!

I've only seen stuff like this in movies where the kids are like 30+ living at home and are super weird or autistic.

Maybe but with the cap numbers for Mule, TNT and likely Cozens being super bargains before too long it will more than make up for that. Those 3 will be underpaid by probably 8-10 million a year or more and every year that will increase as the cap goes up.

Looks like he is going to miss at least a few weeks... Big loss for the Devils.

Over 15K now and likely to still keep growing. My Dad said that is a really poor area of the country and a lot of people from that area came to Istanbul when he was growing up looking for work which is what started Istanbul's growth towards one of the largest cities in the world population wise... Maybe they are unwilling to go into War Zones due to safety concerns?

That's the cost of doing business with an NFL team. For ALL NFL cities. Let's stop pretending like somehow this only happens here like we love trying to do with anything Bills/Sabres related. Some people simply need to broaden their horizons and understand how things actually work around the leagues outside of these two teams. Funny people always bring this stuff up, but you have no issue subsidizing something in NYC that none of use tho right? That's how things work. Some things you pay tax dollars on you don't use. Like people who own houses with no kids that pay school taxes. That's just how it is. Get over yourself already. No area swings it. That's life in the NFL. It's the cost of doing business with them.

Bottom line is the Sabres have been very bad for 11 years straight and been through a failed rebuild(two if you count Botterill's attempt to fix TMGM's mess). They lost a lot of fans during that time and deservedly so. Just like they didn't lose them all at once, they aren't going to get them back all at once either. But I would expect once this team shows they are a playoff team again fans will be back in full force to the arena. They still are watching on TV, they just aren't going as much right now.

Is there something broken? Attendance is up 46% and will keep rising as the Sabres become better and better. Hard to say there is "something broken" with numbers like that. Especially when factoring in how abysmal the attendance was at the start of the year before anyone knew they would actually start turning the corner. https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Daily/Issues/2023/02/01/Franchises/buffalo-sabres-attendance-growth-keybank-center.aspx

Mandated 5 day break...some had it before the All-Star game and the others like the Sabres had it after.

He said $3-4 million a year which is laughable.

Did you take a time machine back to 2010 to come up with those numbers??

Yes we do...coming from the NHL itself. https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/nhl-preparing-teams-for-sharp-salary-cap-increase-over-next-three-seasons/ Or does that somehow not count in your eyes and you need a more "reliable" source?

You know...since the season still has a bunch of games in it...it's very unlikely he doesn't score any more points this year.

Tage just texted him that he is buying dinner on the road since he is making that extra 100K a year

Wow! Great contract again!

The New Madrid quakes are still the biggest ones in the US back in 1811-1812...actually shifted the course of the Mississippi River

Trying to see if all my family is safe over there...most of them are not in that area, but you never know who might have been traveling... Weird Canada has it as a 4.2 magnitude...can we simply not agree on any sort of standard measurement system with them?

I would be surprised if it wasn't... Most people don't realize it but Buffalo lies on a major fault line and has earthquakes pretty regularly. They are just so small and of magnitudes under 3.0 so they are rarely felt. This one woke me up as it was centered not far from me and it sounded like thunder inside my room and my alarm clock fell off the dresser. Last one I remember feeling was about 35 years ago when it lasted for a minute or so and the dining room chandelier shook back and forth.
