I somewhat like the morning show. As I mentioned previously, it is annoying when Jeremy White gets stuck on his opinion. I have always enjoyed talk shows where the hosts facilitated conversation. Where they would take calls on all different points of view and respond to them. Not when they have their opinion and they argue with callers who disagree with them. So why do I not think it is low quality radio? First, most talk shows about sports seem to be more and more like that. But the morning guys I can deal with, I find the show entertaining and somewhat informative. It is 'middle ground' for what sports talk should be. The 1 hour of hockey talk, I do not listen to it that much but I enjoy that also most of the time. The 10-12 show, not perfect, but I can get something out of it also. The afternoon show, Shopp and Bulldog, that is the only show that I can no longer tolerate. When you say low quality radio, to me that comment does not do justice to just how bad the afternoon show can be. But overall, WGR is decent-to-good for me for general listening.

At the bottom of the data set it shows that Brandan Wadlow used the NHL edge information to generate that report. It will not be in that format on NHL edge. NHL edge does not like to embarrass anyone so if you are below 50% compared to the rest of the NHL they just state that as a comparison. The numbers are there but the comparisons are not for the lower half of the league.

Here's the audio clip from the pink propaganda-ist Calling how a company displays pricing a "hostile act" is a special level of authoritarianism.

fwiw my source says an announcement is imminent 👀

Speaking of Allen, you don't see many QBs do this: Threw a pick, made the tackle, forced the fumble through the endzone to get it back for a 1st down, further down the field than he started. Never give up on a play. I also like how he immediately signaled the touchback.

Everything he says is nonsense but doesn't mean he isn't serious.

Tocchet not returning to Vancouver. Things are starting to percolate around the league.

Friedman is reporting the Canucks are moving on from Rick Tocchett

If we make it to the midterms, the same will happen here.

Not a big fan of the gap between these games.

I get a little disappointed when this time of year comes around and I know I won’t get to be seeing The Hip.

Because you are in an abusive and toxic relationship... like us all...

This Bills draft is taking a really long time 🙂

I haven't see that but maybe if you dig around it's on that site somewhere. https://edge.nhl.com/en/home Interesting (and maybe obvious) if you look at the top 10 fastest teams they have listed there they are all playoff teams. So if being fast is our mantra, they are not succeeding in that regard.

It's true. 😜

Lamoriello... no. Sullivan, yes.

Yes.

During today's media availability, head coach Michael Leone provided an update on defenseman Vsevolod Komarov. "He is doing better but in concussion protocol and will miss some time." The Amerks recalled forward Olivier Nadeau along with defensemen Peter Tischke and Noah Laaouan from the Jacksonville. Laaouan is unavailable due to injury.

While every HOF QB was not projected to be a future HOFer upon entry into pro football, others were certainly blue chip prospects predicted to have successful careers. Josh Allen was considered a blue chip prospect upon entry into the league and this was confirmed to me by three NFL GMs and several scouts that I’ve known over the years. Indeed, some even had him as a high first round pick had he come out a year earlier. His success is not a surprise to anyone connected to the game except those pundits and talking heads who created a false narrative about him in order to generate clicks. And it still rankles me to this day that so many fans ate it up like they did. For what it’s worth, which ain’t much, I was never concerned about his physical gifts. The only concern I ever had was his sheer inexperience as a QB throughput his career, from pop warner to HS to junior college to Wyoming. When it was confirmed to me that he aced his Senior Bowl sessions with the coaches and how much he impressed Dabol et al at the combine interviews, I was convinced he possessed the necessary mental abilities as well. The only remaining question for me was his heart and he showed that to me against the Chargers in his first start as a pro on a play that he actually threw an interception on. He was rolling to his right waiting for a receiver to uncover in the endzone, while dragging Melvin Ingram who was hanging on to him, and he let it rip. Ill-advised? Yes. A learning moment? Definitely. But that kind of heart is a rare trait and I was sold then and there.

https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/five-teams-inquire-about-the-services-of-former-pittsburgh-penguins-head-coach-mike-sullivan-1.2297515 We can pretend the Sabres were one of the 5 teams.😁

Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan at Darien Lake. I have never seen either of them and would be a shame to say I never did before it's too late. Do you think they will be just awful or will there actually be some decent music to go along with the icons just being there?

No franchise/staff in any sport is going to make the right decision on every transaction. It's an impossibility. You can tell which franchises are better run than overs. You determine that by those franchises that have sustained success. By any measure, the Bills fall in that top shelf category. And I attribute it mostly to having good quality staff that usually make smart decisions. I'm not looking at any specific period of time as I'm looking at the body of work. By any measure, the McDermott/Beane regime has been superb. And on the opposite side of the spectrum is the KA tenure. It has been an unmitigated failure. That's not an unmoored opinion. It's what the record clearly indicates. You are making a mistake by looking at specific decisions. I'm not doing that. If you take an overview evaluation about the body of work, you should come to the same obvious conclusion about the Bills operation and the Sabres operation. One is positive and the other is stinks!

Yes 2 shows in Atlanta

Why am I getting so angry by the silence? Why do I care this much?
