    Could be. I like Ladd a lot. Just feel the Bills need X help not Y help. 

    You do realize that Ladd lined up at the X over 50% of the time?? Granted his only weakness was getting off the line on bump and run but that can be circumvented with motion. My favorite idea is Ladd at 28 and trading 60+ a couple later picks to around 45 for Franklin, Legette or Coleman. Or Ladd at 28 and Walker, Polk or baker at 60. There’s no better separator in the draft than Ladd - think Beasley with ridiculous speed - he’ll catch 100 passes in year 1

  2. Many have been fired for doing a lot better. UPL has progressed but the regression of tage, Tuch, skinner and cozens is inexcusable. Utterly amazing Granato is still the coach.

    May be time for the League to step in and insist Pegula make a change… Give him a short list of GM candidates…

    Has the league ever done this? Nope and they never will.

     I will admit that Byram has played his tushy off since arriving in Buffalo.  His aggressive style is helping activate the entire D group.  His excellent play also makes you wonder about Power.  

    Krebs stepping in for Casey is a joke.  Downgrading from Casey to Krebs has created a Grand Canyon size hole in the forward group.  Even with the bombardment in the 1st two periods tonight, most of the playmaking was creating by Byram and Dahlin.  3 of the 7 goals were by D again tonight.  2 of the forwards goals were unassisted after great plays by Tuch and JJP. 

     

    Krebs isn’t the answer at 3c. It are you really complaining that we only scored 4 goals by forward and 7 overall? Can’t we enjoy a blowout?

    Greenway is stepping it up. Thompson and Tuch have been fighting injuries, but they’re still magical.  Byram has jam and the other defenseman don’t look so bad playing one role lower than before. 
     

     

    Krebs is useless let’s trade him for a low ceiling tough guy to someone else who wants to pretend he has potential. Power will be traded 2-3 years from now for a forward if he doesn’t wake the ***** up. 

    A lot of batching about power and Krebs for a 7-2 games. Power is 21 and Krebs is not the teams future 3C, Östlund is

    I love this move by Adams, I liked what Casey Middlestadft has become but it became quite clear he wasn't part of the plans here when everyone of the core players got a contract but him. We need to bolster our defensive group and Byram will be our top 4 D, he wasn't in Colorado because they invested heavily in that department so he was buried on the roster and lets be honest if not for Byrams injuries we wouldnt even have had a shot at a player like this so I think Adams finally woke up and thats good to see. I love for him to make a move at a goalie also.

    He was playing on Colorado’s 2nd pair so was in their top 4!!! Furthermore he played more minutes in the finals than any other player.

    Yep, definitely flukey and I think that’s why the magic might be gone because the flukey is working against him this season.

    He lets in one goal so the magics gone? Jumping to conclusions here a bit? UPL let in 3 goals on 8 shots in the first yesterday - does that mean the magic is really gone there.

    Don't stop playing. It all turns the s### if you do. I had to get a stent put in after nearly passing out in a game. Once the fake knees went in I was done. Any hope I had of a miracle comeback faded when I was told I'd be on blood thinners the rest of the way due to aFib. Pickleball at least gets me active again.

    I had a stent put in too last february changed my eating habits and lost a bunch of weight

  8. Yeah I love it. I’m around a 4.25 in doubles and singles (very different games) and have played in tournaments in FLA, NJ, NY, CT and OH, NH and MA. Haven’t won one yet but have been very close (match points to win one for instance). My next one is in Naples, FLA in Feb. I grew up playing competitive tennis, racquetball and ping pong. I tend to beat everyone around my age (55) while winning some/losing some vs the youngsters.

    I’m competitive but, in saying that, it’s a sport for everyone at any level. It’s like golf in that you can play it well into old age, which is great. I’ve seen extremely good players in their late 70s/early 80s.

    one piece of advice, pay for a great racquet. A $200 racquet may only be incrementally better than a $50 one but it is better and it’s the only piece of equipment you’ll need other than tennis/pickleball shoes.

    I’ve designed a court for my backyard, but not sure the wife is approving - lol!

    if anyone has questions, feel free to reach out. I’ve been playing about 4 years

  9. In an absolute must win game, the offense was pure garbage. Fumbles, dropped passes, bad throws. Worst game by josh since his rookie year in a game we needed him to at least play average. I Defend josh To a fault but he was beyond horrible today. Let the fans down
