The Bills are potentially the favorite in the AFC east and most of the world comes to a screeching halt. Coincidence? I think not.

I flipped over to the NHL network last night during a random show talking about the Islander Cup teams. I'm amazed that these stations can't just turn their ticker off at this point. There's really no need to scroll the wild card standings right now.

Now you have me wanting to play some intellivision.

There's no chance anything is ending for you guys. NC just yesterday extended their school shutdown until May 15th. NY is going to take more steps than we will down here with everything up there in the city.

But it's easy enough to "screw them over" already without an unweighted lottery. It's what, around 80% that someone else gets it?

Sure, give them an opportunity to fix it and hand the top pick to Boston.

You really need to get with the times and look into a satellite. Sure it takes up my entire backyard, but I never have to worry about a Bills game being blacked out again.

I have an early morning tomorrow. Hopefully we get this one done in regulation so we can move on to game 7.

He loses points for the white claw though.

Ahhh crap, I typed it too quickly. He's a friend of one of his sons, not Darcy himself, but did speak very highly of Darcy. Apparently my neighbor spent some time in Buffalo in the early 2000s. Trust me when I say this, but knowing this guy's background, I have absolutely no idea why he would have ever been in Buffalo.

How was the Mr Roboto boss fights?

What else can sports writers do right now? They’re in 100% fantasy land right now, as Krupp put it

Today I learned that I’ll probably get pulled into covid research and that my neighbor is a good friend of Darcy. Busy day.

Plenty of the good stuff. I wouldn’t be grilling that crap for a month.

Hopefully that will be one positive to come from all of this. We'll be better prepared to deal with something in the future.

I was a bit bored so I decided to hit the grocery store. I had some fun in the meat department. I think I may be grilling every single day during this thing.

You've got me tempted to look into one of those mini nintendo things that were released a year or two ago. That would be fun right around now. For now, I'll stick with Injustice, which I just picked up last week. I pretty much hate the fighting games because I suck at them, but I'm a Batman junky so I had to grab that game all these years later. I recently read through the comic series, so I should at least see how that all ends.

There's going to have to be some negotiations between the league and the PA over this. The whole thing is uncharted territory for them. I suppose there's potential for some ugliness with any of the leagues, but I'd imagine both sides will want to do whatever they can to get things back up and running once that time comes. Any type of fight after all of this ends would be the ultimate in bad PR.

I spend most of my time trying to stop my wife from going crazy. So it’s just like any other day.

I was wondering how specific they would try to get. So it’s basically just a “we’re serious” message to some of the more stubborn people out there.

Being an outsider I don’t ever get to see this stuff, so I’ll have to take people’s word for it. There’s still plenty of time to correct that one.

It’s on every news broadcast. So that story is legit

Everyone is going to lose money thanks to this. The owners, just like every other person out there, don't want to lose money. Does this sort of reaction from them really surprise anyone?

So are you suggesting that the site at that link didn't provide all of the information? That's how all news sites work, picking and choosing and then slapping an attention grabbing headline on top. I didn't read it, don't have the time right now, but I'd suspect that the actual article linked there does get into that stuff.

No one in this country cared until the NBA shut down. People want their sports, so it's far from just a bunch of rich folks trying to make their money.
