Thwomp!

Can't wait to see how this goes. We're going to get a crash course in whether the Sabres have begun to right the ship or if it's sinking faster. They have some opportunities in the next couple weeks to prove that "we won't get fooled again".

Has Terry set a deadline? I do think he's traded by the draft.

I get that. I'm talking about those that have been here the longest. Ristolainen has played 8 years of the current drought. I'm ready to move on for his sanity and ours. He's not part of the solution, he's part of the precipitate.

Go Terry! Go Sabres! They've been so good for the past decade I can see why you want to keep everyone around, including the owners.

Let's keep it at hockey. There's plenty of Terry meddling decisions that have hurt this hockey club. One choice in a football draft does not let Terry off the hook for the state of this hockey team during his ownership period.

I'm sure Terry, as an extension of his Penn State love, also loves him some Big 10.

Not the splashiest hire. Not the splashiest team. I'll continue to be in "prove it to me" mode.

Was listening to the radio and it also sounds like it opens the doors for extra benefits. All the top notch stuff that Alabama or Ohio State will be able to offer athletes will be much more than anything Buffalo or the MAC offers. The playing field will be even more unlevel between the Power 5 and the rest of college sports. Just in time for that 12 team playoff proposal to show up. Coincidence?

That would be great, but Adams is the definition of a company man. I don't see him closer to any coach than he is to Terry. It's why he's where he is. Why change anything if you're him?

What was that article teased months ago by @john wawrow? Something about the inner workings of the Sabres and some insight into past decisions? I was looking forward to that, but no dice I guess.

You don't have to make it up. Just watch them. Really just need to say two things: 1. Decade and counting 2. Worst owners in sports It's the ultimate "Because Buffalo" that we settle for, and constantly make excuses for, the worst owners this franchise has ever seen because of unfounded fear. Yes, they're worse than the Rigas family. At least we had good hockey to watch for the most part.

I still bet Columbus somehow. We'd have 1 and 5.

So Terry's deep pockets are a problem? I can get behind that too. Skinner and Hall took advantage. Clarification: You currently can't pay quality players, who would actually improve our team, enough to come here. We'll see how the coaching search goes.

Can we stop calling Terry a deep pocketed owner? First of all, those deep pockets only pertain to his family's lifestyle, not the Sabres. 2nd of all, it doesn't matter. By his own design, his pockets are much shallower than they used to be and now the franchise is so bad that no one wants to come here.

We must need another decade of futility and embarrassment.

Or our free agent theme. We only like the bad ones.

This will be an intimate show for them. Might be the smallest venue on the tour. 18,800. They're playing a lot of stadiums. Fenway, Wrigley, L.A., etc.

Too bad. I have just the chair umpire for you... 😂

This match is ridiculous. Two legends battling it out at the top of their games. Trading shot for shot. You don't get these moments often in sports.

OK, I've watched a decent amount of tennis in my life, and I've never seen a chair umpire do this. Now at least 3 times already she's marched out and pointed to where the ball landed. She's gotta be trolling us at this point. 😂

If this chair umpire doesn't become a meme, I'll be surprised. She's a badass! 😂

Great tennis match so far. It's like a heavyweight fight. The judge getting out of her chair and pointing to where the ball hit was classic 😂

Rough at times, but glad he closed out that first set. Neither has been consistently good so far.
