No trades yet this morning? Slackers! Yesterday they started in the AM.

Agreed completely. It was a time of learning to be sure. Not a conversation to be drawn out in this thread, but it does my soul good to see other citizens such as yourself LG who recognize and take the time to analyze the history, the lessons taught in those moments, if learned, are valued assets to the future.

Can he play net?

The Battle of Leyte Gulf was my command classes MCF scenario. We spent 2 months studying every detail for the MCF training event. There were many aspects of the actual historical event that were poor decisions by Halsey at the tactical level. There were equally large errors at the JCS strategy level, staring with but not limited to a split Naval command structure. That contributed greatly to the near disaster.

If Armstrong wants ro throw him in as a sweetener in a Crouse trade, who are we to say no 😉

Why yes, yes I have. Back in the late 70's and again in the mid 80's. It happens. But I won't compare any of these teams to that Gretzky Oilers Team, that was just disgusting.

Once again, a reminder, all locker room memberships must be approved by the "committee to let outsiders in the locker room", as of now, there are no indications committee chairman Okposo has called the committee to order..... A recent press release from the committee......

I haven't seen any reports that Okposo and company have given their blessing, the "Committee to let outsiders on the island" in the locker room were reportedly enjoying a nice evening by the fire pit. Don't believe me? Here's a photo....

Actually, Nimitz never uttered those words, it was msg crypto padding, but unfortunately, the radioman on the New Jersey, Halsey's flag ship at the time, added the padding to the msg, which in turn caused Halsey to lose his mind when he read it lol The irony of the entire Battle of Leyte Gulf / Battle of Samar affair was that the msgs meaning, while unintentionally decrypted incorrectly, was spot on. Halsey made what could have been, and should have been, a fatal error to the invasion of the Philippines. Thanks be to God for 1 Cmdr Evans of the USS Johnston and the other Taffy 3 escorts. A lot of lives were saved that day in spite of Halsey's errors.

Well, we all knew they were a work in progress. Disappointing against a beatable opponent? You bet, especially considering all that comes with the playoff drought. But we need to move past this one, on to the next.

Well, this loss hurts, and it's going to hurt for awhile. 2 pts down the drain.

Don't take your foot off the gas, stick it to them!

You all are probably wondering why I've gathered us all here, I have an announcement to make: ESPN+ is horrible. Camera work sucks, constant stream disruption, broadcast crew is questionable.....

Alright, Quinn!!!

Yep, Columbus locking it down.

YA!!! What they said And trade to bring back Doug Allen to!!! 👉

I'm not seeing a co.e back tonight. Columbus is going to lock it down. If they don't make the playoffs, you directly point at performances like this.

And they wonder why fans refuse to pay to go to home games..... Unacceptable.

We need to start plastering them with the body, like right now

This is most definitely a must win, and they are blowing it. Unreal.

They are using the high pressure, hammer the body strategy which has proven successful against us time and time again.

Let's Go Buffalo!!! LET'S GO!!!

The boys are getting chances, just bury them boys!

Now would be a nice time for JJP or Olofsson to show up on the score board. Really concerned at how much JJ's game has regressed. But, we will win this game, oh yes, we will.....
