I side with the owners(as I did during the last lockout), but I hate both sides when I hear this phrase on a sportscast, which I did this morning... "No talks are scheduled." Seriously? Go f*** yourselves! :angry: :angry: :angry:

Good to hear this nonsense is over. Now Doan can finish his career in obscurity.

Poor choice in my wording("hey Fehr what do you think about this?"), but if I was an owner, I'd be doing everything I could to do away with guaranteed contracts in the next CBA. If the players don't like it, sit out a year, sit out two, but eventually you will agree to it. Why is that such a far fetched notion? Do all 4 of the BIG sports in this country have guaranteed contracts?

No. What's wrong with it?

I'm pretty sure I've "complained" about this before, but it makes me so angry that I have to listen to this conversation several times a month... I am sick of people in my department bitching about how much other people in the department make. STFU! Either realize that you are already making a fair wage and great benefits(which they are), and stop worrying about how much anyone else is making, or quit and see how much money you are really worth on the street. This includes one of my own staff who keeps threatening to go to our department head with an ultimatum(pay me more or I quit), if some of the other complainers get bumped up in salary. Go right ahead. Let me know how that works out for you A$$HOLES! :angry:

Buy a Mac and don't look back! ;)

I have a suggestion to the owners. GET RID OF GUARANTEED CONTRACTS! That way turds like Leino could be cut loose after a putrid first year. See how Fehr and the players would like that suggestion. Don't forget Chara the Giant over Fehr's shoulder. My 2 cents...If you are planning on rolling the players out in front of the cameras, could they at least dress to the point where they don't look they rolled out of bed and put on whatever was laying on the floor? Not saying they need to have on suits, but don't dress like you just got back from the beach.

My mom has been battling it for a few years. :(

Summer is coming to a close, football season is starting, and hockey training camp should be around the corner. We should be talking about how the prospects are going to look at Traverse City, not this CBA/lockout BS. :angry:

My tradition...For the last 41 years, every October, I hope that this is "the year". Here's to that wish coming true in year 42.

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried Cinco De Mayo a couple of times, but did not care for it. I will have to try the new restaurant in that location.

I look forward to a few Amerks game if the lockout drags on.... :angry:

Didn't take you long to fall off the Pegula bandwagon. :rolleyes:

:lol: Even funnier...I would bet that 90% of the things I complain about in this thread, I probably posted about somewhere up thread. :lol:

People who have to back into their parking spot. Unless you are at a sporting event where it is a pain to get out, why do you feel the need to back into a spot...and oh by the way, you SUCK at doing it if you need to go back and forth 3 times before you get it right.

I have heard Ted Black in the last year refer to it as the slug, and now I see this in the Sabres store. It cracks me up that they have embraced it as the slug. :lol: Don't know why it showed up sideways, it was correct prior to download.

I think the old Bison jerseys would make for an outstanding 3rd jersey!

If I had to keep one member on the remaining core(Pominville, Vanek, Miller & Stafford), I would take Pominville, and there wouldn't be a close second.

They will try and convince you to let YOUR money sit in THEIR bank account until the playoffs(if the lockout doesn't last the whole year) or until next year(if the entire 12-13 season is a washout)

A month before training camp, the sides decide they need a week with no meetings(I believe this was the NHLPA's doing), and then when they finally get together, they shitcan it after a 1/2 day. I know I am in the minority, but I am firmly in the owners camp. F*** the NHLPA and Donald Fehr.

Assuming there is a lockout, which players that have logged time with the Sabres would be able to play for the Amerks? I would think McNabb, Foligno, Brennan for sure. Anyone else?

I'm confused. What does this have to do with the Apple store? I didn't see a kiosk, and if there was one, how was I supposed to know about it?

My complaint...Tthe apple store. I love my macbook, iphone and ipad, but I went in the store a couple of days ago to get my daughter a computer, and had no idea you have to seek out an apple rep who then puts you into a queue to be waited on. How about putting this person at the entrance of the store, or at least some instruction as to what you should do. Instead I walked around for 10 minutes trying to find someone who wasn't waiting on another customer.

Maybe we are just driving in different places. :) I am oll over WNY, and I rarely saw any in early summer, but then again, maybe it is that short term memory problem rearing its ugly head again. :lol:
