Pimlach

I am pulling for this guy.

True. That was the primary design, as an anti armor missile. It can be used as an air-air weapon and has been used that way by the Air Force. This whole thing looks hokey.

Lots of things have been happening off of the coast of Yemen for a long time. Lots of missiles, UAVs, Drone strikes, etc. The USN has been engaging with the Houthi’s since about 2018 or so. The Royal Saudi Air Force has been involved in the fighting as well. The “orb” was split because maybe it was only partially blown up? They didn’t show enough video to indicate its eventual fate. It did not look “unfazed” either. Did it eventually fall into the sea? The video cuts out. Bigger question - what is ABC News/ Good Morning America (GMA) doing with this video and why would congress release something to the public in this manner? Seems like this would be classified and that makes it very odd that it would be released at all. Seems so odd that it could be fake, or perhaps setting the public up for something bigger? Or maybe we hit a Martian space ship when their cloaking device was turned off but thankfully their autonomous regenerative capability kicked in?

Company time has nothing to do with the handling of substance abuse problems. One part of me gets angry and wants him fired for recklessly endangering children and possibly others. Another part of me knows that if he worked for a big corporation, or the government, he would have an option to call their Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and ask for help. Depending on circumstances his employment would be protected while he was put on a recovery plan of some sort. As a former Engineering Director for a large corporation that is what we did. I was introduced to this plan in about 2005 and have seen it help people, and I’ve also seen people fail and move on. It puts a strain on the organization to have to replace the employee and then possibly have to accommodate him later, but overall I thought it was a good benefit. I have no clue as to whether the Sabres provide this as an employee benefit. It’s a different business altogether.

Seemed like an easy win for the Bills. The Jets fans were out of the game almost immediately. The Jets coach took no chances either. First time in the Allen era that they won a game and Allen did not run or throw for a TD. They need to stay focused and be ready for the Dolphin on Thursday. Short week to get ready but at least its a home game. GO BILLS!!!

The only "La La" beside "Deck the Halls".

Chances of all these things happening in the same season are slim. My take is this: 1 Tage Thompson is going to have a monster year Maybe. For this to happen he has to stay healthy. He has to click with a line. The PP has to improve. 2 Zach Benson is going to improve the top 6 Benson will likely improve his game but how much that improves the top 6 is debatable. He may not even be on it very much. 3 Josh Norris will be a notable upgrade on Dylan Cozens Yes, he is definitely an upgrade if healthy. 4 Jack Quinn will replace JJ Peterka I think they were always about the same, and maybe Peterka was the slightly better player. JJP is sturdier and more reliable. We shall see what Quinn brings but I would not bank on him. 5 Michael Kesselring is exactly what the blue line was missing We don't know this. He has to emerge from a bottom 6 to top 4. I do think he could be solid and will help. 6 Josh Doan is exactly what the forward ranks were missing We really don't know how this either. He could be a solid 3rd liner that plays with grit, we need that. 7 Lindy knows the roster and they know him Ruff's legacy is on the line. His coaching staff is not impressive. 8 This defence corps is going to create a *****-ton of offence They will create offense, can they provide defense? 9 The team is going to play better defence It has to get better, but how much better? 10 The goaltending can’t possibly get worse It actually could get worse, but I think Lyon will be as good as Reimer was at the end of the season. 11 - They need vets like Tuch, McLeod, and Zucker to continue to contribute. 12 - Attitude: They have to be resilient playing in front of sparse home crowds until they can bring hockey excitement back to the region. They have to stay in the race and not fold early as usual. This team needs a chip on it shoulder and they have to learn how to win. They have to earn the right to win as McDermott says. A lot has to happen to fix this team.

What a mess. I read some of that court transcript. Pretty wild.

Adams spoke very highly of Lyon. Right now we have 4 goalies, which usually means we don't have a goalie.

It doesn't matter, just as long as we have Doan.

The Sabres brand has been tarnished beyond our wildest thoughts. Right on cue.

Isn't he a guy we beat with regularity?

Good to hear. This could be the year he makes a bigger impact. We really need that if this team is going anywhere.

Yup. And my 3 millennial kids are long gone and out of the house. No more, "Hey Buddy, what are these phone updates and are they any good?" My youngest son always knows if there are ways to shut them off and which updates are useful.

Not me, I would love to pound the crap out of KC in the AFC championship game, preferable at home in the Bills last game ever at Highmark. Beating Reid and Mahommes in the playoffs, and KC being an old AFL Rival, that would be fantastic. After that bring home the Lombardi Trophy!

It was. Anything could have happened with that rushed set up and the kick was nearly blocked. But you gotta' love the execution and the result. A walk off FG was fitting given all the missed two pointers.

^ This is wrong. Sounds like you are a casual football fan and not watching very closely. He is top 2 the league right now and already destroying the NFL record books, and that is without any HoF level receivers and running backs on his team so far. How many players elevate their team like him, just a very few.

This sounds awesome. Wish I could be there, I would break my boycott. Go Bills!

Well boys the last home opener at Rich/The Ralph/HighMark was one for the ages. Allen with 394 yards passing and 2 TDs, 30 yards rushing and 2 more TDs, and a 112 QB rating. The defense will get better, there are a few vets on the DL that are on suspension, the secondary is very young and has to get better. Great win. Bring on the Jets.

what about “drill another well”?

Last regular season opener in the former “Rich Stadium” today. I have seen some really great football games there.

Yea! On the positive side, they fixed something two years in a row now. First the scoreboard and the holey roof, now better Audio and express entry and better hot dog buns. Go Sabres!

The Bills have a good Fax machine.

My hockey team hate starts and ends with the Toronto Maple Leaves. I do respect some of their history though, like their original Imlach era, and of course the Bill Berilko story as told by Gord Downie.
