Going to miss his skits...they were hilarious

Maybe he should have cited Edmonton's inexplicable inability to score into wide open nets multiple times.

Fvck Florida

The only thing worse than a Boston team winning another championship would be to have a Miami team follow them 2 weeks later. Both those sports cities can go suck it along with their entire fake ass fan bases(except the Red Sox fans...those are the true diehards in Boston)

Sucks but that place was definitely in need of some serious upgrades.

I mean sure, you could move to a place like Wichita Falls, TX which is pretty cheap...and that's because every 5-10 years a 2+ mile wide F5 tornado comes thru and levels the entire city. I mean you could save a few hundred bucks on a month on your mortgage and hope you don't wake up flying thru the air at 3am one night tho. Also in the cities that are "more affordable" in those places, the median income isn't all that much higher than it is in Buffalo, and in some cases lower. In the areas that are actually higher income, the house prices are much higher. The average house price in all of NC is 353K. Average house price in SC is 388K. Average house price in Texas is 348K. In the bigger cities, you are talking average home prices approaching 500K or higher, easily.

Well, it's not quite as affordable as it once once. My house has close to tripled in value since I bought it in late 2005...not sure how that compares to the rest of the country, I am sure some places have done well more than that, but it's nothing to sneeze at either. There is a reason Zillow ranked us the hottest housing market of 2024 and it isn't because of the "gloom and doom" people want to believe in that hasn't been true for the last decade or so here even tho they desperately want to hold onto it.

Depends if you decide to work a dead end job or if you have a job in fields that actually pay well. I live in WNY, work remotely and make well into 6 figures as a senior software engineer. WNY is becoming a fairly big tech hub as more and more companies move their tech hubs here and more and more successful startups continue happening with the help of 43 North and companies like ACV and Helix Intel making waves. The Doom and Gloom era is over here and any still wanting to wallow in that need to take their ass somewhere else because we don't need them here anymore. They are a part of the problem as to why it became that in the first place and the sooner they take that attitude somewhere else, the better.

So weird...both Dallas in the NBA and Edmonton in NHL avoided sweep with huge blowout wins. Watch both go down in game 5 now after shooting their shot.

Sadly I think Zach Benson is already the biggest "dog" mentality player on the team as a rookie.

The Utah SaltLickers is what they should be called... They could have a hockey puck made out of salt they are licking on their uni's 🤣

All around the world...same song. It's just the same old song... I definitely know someone in here plays the Keytar like in the video...who wants to confess?? 🤣

New report out from Jeff Marek claiming Sabres don't have what the Canes want. Excuse me what? They have the deepest prospect pool in the league by a mile and the #11 pick.

It might. Depends on the situation. I don't need to say McDavid is great. Everyone knows that. What I don't think enough people realize is the dropoff from McDavid to #2, who might be his own teammate in Draisaitl is like the dropoff from #2 to #100. He is THAT much better than the next closest player.

The goal he scored looked like he was a grown man playing hockey with a bunch of 5 year olds in the back yard. He just made the entire Stars team look ridiculous. In a game the Oilers had no business winning or even being in, he provided both offensive plays for them to score the only 2 goals they scored. Yeah, the goalie I'm sure made some saves, but without McDavid, the Oilers would have been shutout.

Last game it might as well been. McDavid was singlehandedly the reason they won that game.

Edmonton outshot 35-10 in the game and wins 2-1. Unreal. Edmonton has the 2 best players in McDavid and Draisaitl. And McDavid is the best player by a wide wide margin over #2.

Cool and rainy,and that's the good time of the year. I mean the average summer high temp for July is 73 in the warm places like London...if you are in Ireland or Scotland, likely mid to low 60s for highs.

Considering hockey is the only sport where a top 15 drafted player is considered a good pick if he ends up being a 30 point 3rd line player that plays both ways, I'm not sure how you get to that on a 4th round pick.

So does California, but the craziest place for that is countries like India and China where there are cities most people have never heard of that have 5-6 million people.

That's because most of Buffalo's true population lives in the suburbs

No it's pro lacrosse, so it's like the NHL version. I don't think there is an AHL version of lacrosse. Bandit games are BY FAR the most fun sporting events I have ever been at with constant end to end action. Basically it's like a version of hockey from the 1980s with tons of scoring and offense on steroids

Yes...the Bandits averaged higher attendance than the Sabres this year at 16.5K a game and 18K for the playoffs including a full house last night. By far the highest attendance in the NLL. Calgary was in 2nd place at a little over 11K per game. The only 2 teams with more than double digit attendance average.

Those outdoor goalies have to be colored purple from the bruises they must get for a week after the games. My guess is there are far more shots in box lacrosse similar to indoor verse outdoor soccer

Yaaaaaa!!!! Back to back champions!! Game was pretty much never in doubt...Albany got it close a few times but Bandits responded like true champions and widened it back to 6 goals late in the game and it was pretty much done at that point... Love this team...they are special...4 straight times to the Finals winning the last 2...too bad the Bills couldn't have taken a page from that book...
