Night Train

NCAA Tourney had 2.7 Billion bet on brackets While hockey and football are my primary sports to follow, the Tourney is still the greatest playoff format ever. Saw Oakland knock off Kentucky and Dayton make this incredible 24-4 closing run in the last 7 minutes to beat Nevada, who thought they had it won. A great watch, IMO. Especially when ones hockey team is failing yet again.

How can they sell tickets for next season running this back with KA, TG and little lineup changes ?

Edwards was a great insurance policy. He's not someones backup. He played a lot. They can get more and probably will. Free safety starter as of today. Rapp at Strong Safety. Still have a lot more positions to work on. Looking at the current depth chart but Beane is doing OK. Draft coming and I'm betting some post June 1st FA signing when more cap space opens up ( T.White ). They'll be Vets still hanging out there. That's how they got DE Floyd last year. Signed him on June 6th.

" No April golf for us ! "

He has roofing and scoreboard experience.

Watched the replay. Dahlin coughs it up early for the Seattle goal and Power almost gives away another in the first 30 seconds. Then those 3 quick goals. Excellent response.

The salary cap continues to climb, yet it also continues to become more unbalanced. Heard today that 10 years ago, 1 year FA contracts made up 12% of the deals handed out during Free Agency. Now it''s 54 %. Far fewer players get the big deal. QB, WR, OL and Pass rushers get more and more. It also makes the GM's jobs far more difficult for cap balance. Have to know when to stop kicking $ down the road after reviewing the real contract terms. Diggs was mentioned and even if the Bills hypothetically traded him after June 1st, they would take a massive cap hit next season. It's far easier to cut him in a year or 2, cap wise. Crazy but I'm glad Beane isn't acting like the Broncos. That Wilson cap hit will probably keep them down for a while. That contract was so dumb.

Once the Sabres announced a new scoreboard and roof, the stress was gone.

FA Safety Julian Blackmon (Colts) coming for a visit. 4 INT's last year. Safety obviously a need.

Per reports from ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Bills are signing All-Pro defensive back Taron Johnson to a three-year, $31 million contract extension. The move makes Johnson the highest-paid nickel DB in the NFL.

Too late for me to watch. Wish them the best but they basically have to win out on this west coast trip to stay alive. UPL cannot play every game. " So you're saying there's still a chance ! " The answer is slim.

Mercenary mercurial athletes talking junk on X..

Only if you pledge undying love to one.

Per NFL Network, the Bills were competing with the Jags for San Fran All-Pro Jessie Armstead to add to the DL... but the Jags gave him 51 Mil for 3 years which surprised many in the NFL. Bills obviously want more on the DL and definitely waiting out some Vets for Safety, let alone drafting more. Chris Brown stated that when FA started, there were 29 Safties out there in FA that started at some point last season, which is a crazy occurrence for 1 off-season. Still many out there hoping to get paid.

The race was basically over. Then Detroit goes on a 7 game losing streak. Brings the Sabres back into the race. Yet it also brings 3-4 other teams back into the race. That's what most forgot. It's not just us vs. the Wings. After the Saturday afternoon game in Detroit, they are on a plane to the west to play Mon. and Tues. against Seattle and Vancouver. Will Levi take that trip to play a game ? Can't ask UPL to play every game. Still small odds to make the playoffs. Just win games and hope. Otherwise, we know the results.

Samuel was McCaffrey when he played at Ohio St. His last year there he was 97 carries for 771 and 8 TD's rushing to go with 74 catches, 865 and 7 TD's receiving. Blazing speed meant get him the ball. He's played for 2 bad teams during his NFL time with poor QB play. Can line up anywhere and move the D with his speed. Think he didn't wish to sign here with Allen playing QB ? Yes they may still draft a WR somewhere..but DL and Secondary have far more needs right now. Kincaid is seen as a motion WR. Diggs, Shakir and Knox as your true TE. They just signed a backup 6-4 WR from Atlanta to go with rookie 6-4 Shorter they drafted in Round 5 last year and hid on IR. They are not lacking in WR depth.

All the Sabres can do is keep winning games. Just like last year, they dug the hole prior and must hope for others to lose.

Awesome...and Wings continue to lose..

Good job Clifton

So they muck through the entire .500 season and then wake up in March ? Where was this team all year ??

Greenway running over everyone.

He ran a 4.31 at the Combine years back, coming out of Ohio St.
