Most favored team. I'll believe the NHL has turned a corner on cleaning up the game when the suspensions are handed out without any favoritism.
-
This thread is going to be gold! (Insert Seinfeld reference here)
Oh and any early bets on what drugs were in Kassian's system? :)
-
Well they far exceeded their low bar. The NHL has been playing the "long game". They're not incompetent. :p
Hopefully Zac Rinaldo thinks twice about running Lehner or Eichel this season.
If the Sharks aren't an MFT, then Rinaldo may be fine :(
-
I can see your points but the fact that this is even a topic than can be debated at this point is incredible. 2 months ago picking Tyrod or even debating would have gotten you laughed off the board.
-
The NHL got it right. Mark this down, it may be a while before it happens again. Are the Sharks a MFT?
-
Wow! Maybe it's a good thing Kaleta was released.
-
Hoss, I admire your dedication to the "Tannehill is good" train, but he's still just average. Every stat and the eyes say the same thing. Average.
Ok, our judgement may be clouded here, but you have to choose between Tyrod and Tannehill for the QB of the Bills. Who are you taking?
I'm taking Tyrod. No one would have said that 2 months ago.
-
Sure. I think I'm touching on a subject fans don't want to talk about so I'll stop.
Can Murray win? That question has yet to be answered.
The rabid fan base makes the money making part easy. See Bills, Buffalo.
-
I know I've probably annoyed the hell out of everyone, but this place really is awesome. I've had alot of fun today and forgot all about the Bills disaster. I was in such a grouchy mood and now I'm ready again for the next disappointment in Buffalo sports sure to come.
I didn't get much or any work done today, but that's ok. I regained my Buffalo sports spirit!

Well if Joe Girardi were my boss, I'd likely be an alcoholic too.
And laugh it up Met fan......while you can
Oh I'm well aware of what to expect being a Mets fan. Not freakin' much. But when was the last time the Mets were in a better position than the Yankees? I can't let this pass. Who knows when it will happen again. :)
367 days too late.
###### a Met.
Who's your type? Wright? Harvey? Bartolo? Terry Collins?
-
I like except zamboni instead of lawnmower. You missed an easy one there! :)
-
One cannot truly comprehend the concept of one's self until complete ego death is achieved.
But one could sure try!
-
But as you point out there's gray areas to that "just wants to win". You did not say "immediately" or "this year" for example :P
-
Tannehill is still a good NFL QB. As if other QBs don't say similar things. He's part of a ###### show and has certainly contributed to it in his own ways, but you don't put up stats like he did last year without the ability.
And let's not forget how bad that entire team is right now. Suh has done absolutely nothing (less than Tannehill)... Does that mean he's no good? No, it doesn't.
it really is priceless that he's talking trash to the practice squad who is making him look bad, though. He could've at least thrown in a "my wife is way hotter than yours" in there too.
-
Agree with you 100% on these points. Murray himself stated something along the lines of missing the playoffs and winning the lottery. But that comment was a shot at the league. Not about our make up this year.
If I had to make a bet, and bet everything I own, and there was some way to actually determine this, I would bet that Murray would like another high draft pick this year to be used on the best blue liner he can get. That he doesn't realistically think we're going to be competing for the playoffs. Just my reading of things.
-
Apparently CC Sabathia has checked into Alcohol Rehab. Per ESPN
And out for playoffs, which probably won't last long anyway for the Yanks :ph34r:
-
He's not doing a very good job of being 24 this week.
Actually except for the broken bones, it sounds like he's being like me and many others at 24 :ph34r:
-
Who's the (former) Tannheill fanboy around these parts?
Eee gads.
On Saturday during practice, Tannehill, after a couple of practice squad players forced turnovers, Tannehill made negative comments toward them, including saying: "Enjoy your practice squad paycheck, enjoy your practice squad trophy."
Philbin told the practice squad players to take it easy on Tannehill to not affect the young quarterback's confidence.
Well at least I don't feel badly at all anymore for hating Tannehill. What a douche.
-
Broken nose, broken foot and drugs in his system. Habs GM is really pissed.
The drugs were because he was deeply exploring the philosophy behind the "concept of Kassian"
-
I can't believe that anyone even for a minute would think that our GM would be on the sidelines doing nothing after all he has said and done. The man doesn't strike me as standing on the sidelines doing a full Darcy if there's a deal to be had.
Unless this is a desired "development" year, which many have stated/speculated. I'm arguing against the "development" year mindset because: 1.) It doesn't have to be a "development" year. 2.) Improving and competing for the playoffs and "development" are not mutually exclusive, especially when all we're replacing/upgrading are Donoco, who are not likely long timers anyhow.
Regardless, I think I've stated my case, and I'll shut up now. It's extremely likely not happening anyway, and there may not be any good deals to be had, but now is the time that it would happen with rosters being finalized around the league.
-
...and replaced him with their tight ends coach. How bad does your team have to be to think the best option for head coach is a (relatively) minor position coach?
Well I just realized that I don't know who our tight ends coach is without Google, so that seems pretty bad. They are only a game and tiebreaker worse than us at this point though :ph34r:
-
Wow, reports coming out that the Dolphins have fired Philbin.
-
I think we agree actually. The Islanders addressed short and longer term. I'm only looking for that circumstance, but it doesn't appear to be available. I also think that I'm less inclined to value Donoco, since they seem like short timers to me at this point. If we can upgrade them relatively cheaply, and address both short and longer term needs, go for it and don't just write this year off in advance.

Matt Williams reportedly fired by the Nationals. I know, we're all shocked :P

I love this guy!
Arietta over pirates, keuchel over Yankees
Royals over Astros, Jays over Rangers, Cubs over Cards, Mets over Dodgers
Royals over Jays, Mets over Cubs

Not very confident about this, but gotta go with my team!
