That Aud Smell

(Go Sabres.)

Thompson’s floating.

eerily similar

Thanks for making me think of this. Just the best.

Benson = Benny Confirmed: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DAs8pXyvehL/?igsh=YzJhOXlpazBzaXN0

Let’s Go, Buffalo!! Jack Quinn to open the scoring.

Put this post in the fookin’ Louvre.

A good guess, I'd say. More guessing: Kulich = Kooler And one that I think is well known (but he didn't show up on the reel): Cozens = Cuzzy

I had the same thought. It was a bridge too far when I learned that Grant Fhur's hockey nickname was Fuhrzee.

Confirmed? Or inferred.

Makes sense? That leaves Krebsy as the 13F and then Gibby and Brice as the 7D/8D. As was foretold. Something about seeing Gilbert yesterday in the nickname reel made me think of Bob Boughner. Maybe Lindy had the same thought.

anybody can be done with "it," btw.

Do NOT give me a YO MAMA option and not expect me to hammer it. I said second tier star, 30+ goals for Peterka. Excellent player. As for the holy trinity of youts, I would have voted for Benson but for the YO MAMA option.

Also, it's happened. I'm lowkey in love with the team. GOD DAMMIT. (Please be good.)

NAK = Kubey Reimer = Reims or Optimus Rousek = Rousino (THAT'S a personal favourite. Reminds me of Enzo a bit.) He and Quinn are ... dare I say ... adorbs. Levi = Leevs, Beast, Dwayne

Clague = Claguer Lafferty = Laf McLeod = Clouder

Krebs = Krebsy. Bryson = Brys (Brice) Tuch = Tuchy Clifton = Cliffy Dahlin = Ras Somebody goes by "Gibby." I clearly need to catch up on who's rostered. (Okay - Dennis Gilbert.)

Samuelsson = Sammy UPL = Upie ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Greenway ... isn't sure. That was a funny bit. The producer calls to him "Greener? ..." Then he professes not to know. Then someone reminds him: Dude she just called you Greener. After some reflection, he also offers "Big Rig."

Have a watch and listen. Per the players themselves. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DAoOCSGMM_i/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== As I've stated previously: I don't want any of YOUZE GUYS** using these nicknames. That's dumb. (Lol, jk - please do deploy their nicknames as often as you like -- if for no other reason than to trigger, irk, anger me (and others?).) ** And GALS, if any (and NON-BINARIES, if any). ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Thompson = Tommer Quinn = Twos, Quinner, Quinny Joki = Joki Byram = Bo Malenstyn = Mal (or so says Byram)

Earlier days, it could have been Dicky.

No idea who Lohrei is, but if dude's a Bruin and can't outpace Power's metrics, then what is the argument even about? Also, the block function can be your friend. I went over 15 years without using it much, but, of late, have used it more freely. It's made my experience on this board much more pleasant. Like Utah Phillips once said: "I went on a low social cholesterol diet ... no more fat heads."

Apparently, Miller hedged against this very thing and saved himself ~$3.5MM when he renegotiated his deal with the Bills this past offseason. So, those 4 games may cost him in achieving some bonuses at certain levels -- but he's taken the sting out of that by restructuring his deal so that it has so little base salary.

Yep. I spent a decent buck on a well-regarded VPN last season and then tried to pair it with ESPN+. That was a big "nope."

is this true?!
