I can see missing the experience of having young kids, and taking them somewhere that they really enjoy, but missing Chuck E Cheese itself? The ones in Rochester must've been a lot nicer than the ones I patronized. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taro T Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Back on topic, for those concerned about (or hoping for) the Pegulas selling a majority share of the team, pretty sure you don't kick off a fan reachout when you're getting ready to run out the door. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He then says the highest execs at PSE have called to flatly deny the Sabres are for sale. Hamilton also really really really doesn’t like the seats at the arena.😀 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it’s just a take - not a sourced rumor. But it’s also of a piece with the undercurrent of the Pegulas’ looking for an off ramp from owning the Sabres. 46 minutes ago, Flashsabre said: https://www.audacy.com/podcasts/schopp-and-bulldog-20261/sbd-the-end-of-the-paul-hamilton-athon-1269215340 Paul Hamilton at around 15:00 states that he has heard from 3 sources that people are interested in buying the Sabres.

PASabreFan Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 2 hours ago, That Aud Smell said: I’d pay $38 for that picture of Cliffy lurking as the children of the residents were enjoying story time with … some Pegula Sports muckity muck (?) or another local dignitary. (It’s been scrubbed from the relevant photo shoot, AFAICT.) That guy gave off the bad vibes. Finally: The reason I bumped this thread and fwiw: I opened this thread hoping for some sign the Pegulas will go back to plowing the earth from above and not this franchise from behind. I'll take it! The tweet might be inelegant, but it gets to the truth. I don't believe for a moment that Terry has some ingenious plan to rebuild the Sabres. He knows there's not a plan. He no longer cares, if he ever did. I look forward to reminding him of that fact, in one loud,lusty boo, if he has the audacity to appear on the ice to sully Rick's night. There's really no other logical explanation for the recent and current state of the team other than the above. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you assuming that everyone in the organization would be aware the team is being sold? Business as usual would be a good SOP if the team was being sold. If there's an effort to reach out to fans, whatever that means (chz posted something about being contacted by the team, I think), that could be seen as part and parcel of preparing the company to be sold.

Why do the legwork for the next owners? Can't see that adding to the purchase price offered them were they trying to sell a controlling/full interest in the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is my gift to you for giving me the gift of hope today. All I really have today is the pulling back of drab, fraying curtains to see that the barren hills have yet to be nuked — and the thought of the a new owner during the greens of summer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With attendance so woeful, I see any kind of fan "reachout" to be as normal a state of business affairs as working on next year's landscaping budget. No one's going to tell the people in charge of those things to hold off, and the people in charge of those things would not know to hold off bc the team is being sold. That said, reading the tea leaves is fun. I hope you're wrong, obv. Edited February 25, 2022 by PASabreFan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a fair bit stronger than how you characterized it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
