Yes and the reason you don’t hire a housekeeper is because you care too much about then cleanliness of your house

check your logic at the door all ye who enter this thread 

Terry has a housekeeper.  He also owns you.

No I comment about a team I hate because the board is the best and most enjoyable part about it 

that it pisses you off so much is just an added bonus 

I'm laughing at you.

But then we don't like it when we do because it's too early, etc..  IMO, we do a good job of keeping our own.  Problem is our fans complain about our own, them love them the second they leave.  A lot of us will say anything to dog the team.

Jack wanted out. Reinhart wanted out. Ullmark wanted out. Montour wanted out. JJP wanted out.
 

If I say something that is inaccurate, then disputing my comments is warranted. However, when someone says something that is factual, then resorting to the tired argument that you won’t be happy until you drive the owner to moving the franchise is a lame position to take.

But yet he is the opposite with the Bills.  His problems with the Sabres stem from these things:  

1.   He thinks he knows the game

2.  He gets infatuated with people he knows and likes

3.  He does not fit into or trust the NHL establishment and feels they led him astray. 
 

Just curious, are you retired yet?  

The NHL establishment didn't lead him astray. As you point out, I'm sure he solicited opinions on who would be good candidates to staff his franchise. And I'm sure that a number of candidate suggestions were offered. But he was the one who made the selection/s. The problem is the manner in which he has structured the organization so that he would have a decisive say (maybe less so now) is what has weighed this franchise down. What has crippled this franchise is covered by your first two points: 1.) He thinks he knows the game and 2.) He gets infatuated with people he knows and likes. KA is an example of that last point.

I'm disputing that you can drive the owner to doing anything.

I think Jack wanted out but he did sign a long term extension.  Sam and Ullmark, I'm not sure it's a fact they wanted out.  Montour, haha, oh no not Montour.

I know that I can’t drive the owner out. That doesn’t mean that it can’t be pointed out that as an owner he is a dismal failure. Are the complaints repetitious? Absolutely so. And the reason is that his foolishness has been going on for a generation. His extended record is his record. And that in itself is an absurdity.
