That Aud Smell

i'll grant this: she does seem like a still waters sort of person.

not unfair. it occurs to me: i don't really know a thing about laura -- a child of terry's first marriage. she's not a tennis pro and personal essayist (jessica). she hasn't come up with any harbourcenter restaurant concepts. (kelly). she didn't create the j1zz hat (matthew). what's laura's story?

Carlie Irsay - and her play-card and headset - has entered the chat.

Srsly

That was a fun ass time to be a Sabre fan. Lafontaine. Mogilny. May/Ray. ... Donnelly?

Funk yeah. Well deserved. Long overdue!

i wish one of us had thought to create a separate thread for that press conference. the board's feedback is sprinkled in a few different threads.

Guelli is the Bills' COO. I infer that he's also COO of every sports franchise that the Pegulas own. Nah?

They have to figure out how to extend him - that is, assuming he's willing to do so.

Thanks. My questions are more basic, I guess. Who or what Pegula interest owned or is selling the Nighthawks? Who’s Pete’s “we?”

PSE was dissolved several years ago. Who’s the “we” in Pete’s statement? Weird.

haha - nice. well, this was the first i saw from ye. 🤘

i asked the gif generator for a Sabres celebration. that was the best option i saw (other than the one of benson banging the door by the bench (and i'd already used that one in recent memory)). ... i was celebrating what, to me, was your return to the board.

I am uninterested in your preferred style of debate.

This is way too trusting and way too sanguine, given the team's history over the past 14+ years. And it's more than a little patronizing.

I hear this. They are just so admirable in so many ways. That's a team, man.

thx @spndnchz

Let's get this thread unpinned!

Let's get this thread pinned!

It's a terrible cycle we're stuck in: KA: "We want players who want to be here." KA: [Does a dozen things that make players not want to be here.]

D'oh! I glossed over "Brand New" -- thought it was a descriptor phrase that was mistakenly capitalized.

Yo - what’s the band’s name??

I understand what you're saying. Nothing could be further removed from my experience. Whether it's the delirium brought on by an OT winner (Briere in 2006, for example) or the delirium brought on by a beloved favourite being played as a surprise encore (remember when that blind guy got on stage with U2 to play guitar and Bono sang "All I Want Is You" to the guy's wife?), the fundamental point of supporting teams or artists is communion.

absolutely true. Bills games are a commitment, man. It always feels like an all-day or late-night event. And I don't even do much in the way of tailgating!
