That Aud Smell

worth its own thread for sure. fwiw!

Give the guy a break. He mostly comes here to get his rocks off by unnecessarily dropping two-dollar* words. *This is the phrase (denomination) I heard growing up. Indexed for inflation, we may need to call them twenty-dollar words.

i knew that last name sounded familiar - once i figured out how to pronounce it

Great post. I appreciate it. I clicked through on that YouTube link. The song started playing. The video started ... playing. And I was like "holy sh1t - this song SUCKS." (Very much NOT my cuppa.) But then that hook came around ... and I was like OH DAMN THAT'S WHERE IT'S FROM?!?!?!

I don't stream. I try like hell to avoid taste-predictive algorithms. I still look for new music (in an ad hoc, hunt and peck sort of way). And I enjoy listening to familiar material. I find that bringing intention as the listener is essential to appreciating music. And I find that buying the music that I want to listen to helps me have that intention.

schedule's out? not yet - but apparently sabres open against the rangers at home 10/9.

Like I said.

Link? I appreciate the good news. The PEDs suspension of that one tweener/gadget guy they signed (pronounced Hoyt) has given me a baseline level of worry about the d-line. (That other bigger tackle fella got suspended too (I have no idea how to spell or say his name), but I'm beginning to wonder whether he'd even make the 53-man roster.)

That rookie Landon Jackson is going on the PUP. Bills d-line might be a real problem to start the year.

Thorner really be like

Yes because spending beyond the cap in actual cash is something Pegula has shown he’s willing to do.

lol - i was just sorta chirping Inkie - saying that the new middle 6 forward and the new power play coach were not the inventions of WGR or other Sabres media (but were instead things that educated fans have been calling for).

more from JFresh

@dudacek some context? (but not really.)

I guess not? I'm probably not up to speed enough to play along here. I did find JFresh's "3" WAR rating for Byram to be shockingly low. But that's an account that has explanations for its #fancystats.

Here are some of my outside influences setting expectations? I love the Jfresh cards. I don't understand them, for the life of me. They're pretty to look at though. And they seem to have a rational basis for the numbers they offer.

Um. Wtf?! Where is our additional top-6 (middle 6?!) forward? Where is the new power play coach? It feels like Sabres ‘25-26 won’t sniff 80 points.

I'd ask that we avoid making jokes that require the use of the disabled and legally incapacitated as a premise.

Sir! Sir! This is absofreakinlutely not up for debate anymore. The other reality here: Terry’s actually more the GM than POHO. Adams is essentially executive assistant to and spox for the GM.

what was that anonymous sourced quote a while back? “If I have to call you to get clearance to trade Jokiharu (sp) for a 4th - what are we even doing here?”

There is no reason to think that this isn’t true. Even so. Yowza. https://www.reddit.com/r/sabres/s/nEffSAFN1F

The guy who got sh1t kicked is not deserving of much sympathy, if any. But the hockey goon overdid it. He seemed only too eager to oblige.

Lol. I was going with "Harrington's burner" theory until I realized it wasn't a fit. Far more likely Mike just peruses this board for ideas, content. Hi, Mike. Can you unblock me on Twitter, you pud?
