DeleteThisAccount Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 folks: sorry for a late introduction. joined this board out of pure spite, but that gets quite dull pretty quick. so don't think i'm going to toy with that one poster no more. it's far too easy pickins. (oops, sorry, this is the last). won't make any other promises besides that, but hope to post here a little more regularly -- though don't hold me to what "regular" means, given the busy stretch i've got coming up with the combine coming, and then bills-land doings and a lengthy assignment covering the women's world cup of soccer, from ottawa to edmonton, and maybe a piece on mcdavid's arrival in oiler-ville. but since i'm a member of this unruly mob of a board, i figured i'd say "hey" during a relatively sober moment. jw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeleteThisAccount Posted May 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) as just noted on a certain social media site, a certain local radio -- and sabres -- flagship station finds itself in a very tough spot with its relationship with the team. how wgr is citing "reports" of a deal being "close," and has done very little of it's own reporting overnight on this is a bad look and sound. to know and not report because of partnership rules certainly dents reputation. jw Edited May 28, 2015 by john wawrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASabreFan Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 No, no here's what happened. In 10th grade gym class, the boys ran a race. Mr. Mandelbaum hadn't fired the starting gun yet and jw took off and won going away, literally, a huge upset. Ghost never forgot and has been challenging jw to a rematch ever since. jw has always said he would never race again. Now, in middle age, he wants to go.
