thesportsbuff Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 (edited) Why not? oh i don't know really. i'm sure the biggest reason is that when i got a new laptop a year+ ago it took me forever to add SabreSpace to my favorites bar. :P edit: posted some other stuff, but it's really off topic so i deleted it haha Edited May 24, 2015 by thesportsbuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattPie Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Amen to that. When I was back in WNY all three kids begged for a snowblower. We got it! Never did get the garage door opener though. Being the youngest of the three, in the pouring rain, they sent me out to open the garage door. My Mom would say, "I don't need a Genie door opener, I got a Jeannie for that." Still pissed about that one. I love the Genie/Jeannie part, but, why were you snowblowing in the rain? More please :worthy: Can you and Qwk please have a competition? How about that party game where each takes turns continuing the story, piece by piece? Pistols at 20 paces. more my speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am Defecting Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 I don't think that Battista runs anything, per say, or makes any decisions. I think he is Terry's "hatchet man," so to speak. If there is uncomfortable news to be delivered, and Terry doesn't want to do it himself, he sends Joe B. That way, Terry can maintain a magnanimous, benevolent image, because Battista is the one who does the dirty work. For congratulations, welcomes, and praises, Terry does it; To light a fire under someone's ass, threaten, or terminate someone, Joe does it. It's your birthday! Terry got you a present! You're seen getting drinks with Mike Harrington. Joe B. paid your wife a visit, and went on and on about the importance of life insurance.. That job would suit him I figure, because he'd know just enough about hockey to not get bamboozled, but not enough to have independent thoughts. Plus he'd be loyal as name-your-dog. He's a made man. Wise-guy. Legend. I'm just guessing. It's fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MBHockey13 Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 (edited) Found this description of Conspiracy Theorists. Pasted without comment. Powerful Drug The obsession with conspiracy theories has been compared to an addiction. Once one has delved deeply into this mindset, recovery—a return to balanced, sound thinking—is rare. What motivates a person to immerse himself in them in the first place? Conspiracy theories are a powerful source of pride and a wellspring of intellectual vanity. The theorist comes to see himself as thinking on a higher plane than the ignorant masses around him. He walks the fringes of society, watching his surroundings with suspicion. No one realizes what’s going on, he thinks. If speaking his mind on conspiracies causes others to recoil, he simply dismisses them as “dumb sheep” who cannot see what he sees. Every episode like this further reaffirms how special this inside information makes him. While many conspiracy enthusiasts lack education, the supposed inside knowledge they gain makes them feel superior—one of the elite, enlightened few. “Besides, who needs schools? They’re just brainwashing centers run by ‘the machine,’” right? Many of these individuals enjoy the thrill of perceived danger that comes along with having supposedly top-secret knowledge, feeling as though they have a lead role in a secret-agent film—except they are not in a movie! If a reasonable person attempts to point out serious flaws in a theory’s logic, there is a standard response:The conspirators purposely do certain things that appear to counter their goals, just to keep investigators off the trail. Once this idea is accepted, any facts—whether or not they appear to fit the supposed covert scheme—reinforce the theorist’s central idea that “things are not as they seem.” Edited May 27, 2015 by MBHockey13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeleteThisAccount Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Come now my canine friend....... We have most of this thread beaming of posts from people who must have read Teen Magazine as kids.....and obviously not the Hardy Boys...... Read the thread I just linked......some people actually wanted to know what Joe Battista was all about. I think I gave a fairly glowing review of the man and situation....given the cronie part didn't cause a problem with the high end hockey minds (not Darcy of course). I'm not saying Battista was the reason Babcock didn't come to Buffalo. I told everyone why he probably wouldn't be coming over the past 2 weeks.....and was called a jerk, Buffalo-basher, non-credible, yadda yadda. Yet, when Babcock goes to Toronto.......Babcock is an ahole.....yet.....maybe only a handful of true men stepped up and said...."good read on that". I have no problem dismissing the media. Heck, we have Uncle Wawrow showing up once every 6 months, bragging about seeing Justin bieber...I mean Mike Babcock and Terry Pegula through the window of an SUV. Hard hitting stuff right there. If the media is not to be believed.........and posters who put in actual effort in trying to learn about the facts are not rational......then what is left. What do YOU BELIEVE IN???? Someone tell me......please......so I can believe that there is still some hope for humanity and not a bunch of ADHD drones with their twitter up their twatter. Go ahead...... such a hot take. i'm whelmed. jw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woods-racer Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Personally if "I enjoy your fragrance" is necessary over "you smell good", way to high a maintenance person for me... But I do enjoy JW and GoDD spritzing each other's paper cuts with lemon juice. Every time they get into it reminds me of my long departed and wonderful Mother, see was fond of using a famous Mark Twain quote for such occasions.
