I thought it was a watchme of toddlers.

Ugh, Howl is the better of the first two but the Devils pinched that one. I don't really get Yeah Yeah Yeah as a goal song, but it's not terrible. Maybe they'll re-write it "Hear us shout, the Sabres score again!" and SDS can feel safe in his masculinity. :)

I'm just working off this post. I'm not sure if that was a temporary thing for a day or if Bylsma uses ?-Larssssssson-Reinhart going forward. Looking at those names, Girgensons is missing, but I'd think you shift Foligno over to 4LW, maybe Larsson over to 3LW, Girgensons as 3C, Reinhart as 3RW, and Legwand to 4C. I think 4RW is still open with those moves, but whatever. To clarify, keep the top-6, then: Larsson - Girgensons - Reinhart Foligno - Legwand - ? (or if Foligno is skating RW, Deslauriers - Legwand - Foligno). Out of those lines, Ellis, Shaller, Akeson, and Rodrigues are out, which doesn't seem unlikely. Or maybe one stays to play 4RW and Foligno and Deslauries duke it out at 4LW. It's a nice problem to have.

2nd or 3rd line RW, perhaps, with Gionta taking the other spot? From the line-up above, it appears the Reinhart is skating on Larsssssson's RW today.

I just think it's a good song and fits the requirements of a goal song: catchy, non-offensive, and can be sung. I don't understand why you think "10000 men" won't sing it. is it the weird gay angle that's been talked about here? I can't figure out how that line of thought got started. That would be cool, although I'm not sure you'd get enough people to buy into it as an upbeat, 30-second clip.

People seem to miss this point. This isn't "the best song in the world" or something I want to listen to in my car, it's "what song will get the crowd singing" and make the other team sad. Yelling "hoo rah hoo rah hoo rah yeah!" at the top of my lungs is a winner.

I'd be surprised if the Sabres go completely off the reservation and build their own gamecenter or even partner with someone outside of gamecenter. Streaming is a bigger task than it sounds (or at least I assume it is, considering how the NHL has struggled with it and has contracted with MLBAM to do it this year). I think the safe play is they'll set up their own cable network like usual. Maybe they broadcast locally as well, but I'm not sure how that actually works in terms of licenses and whatnot. I'd be surprised if the NHL doesn't get a say in how it's league is broadcast, even to local fans. And all those NHL NBC cable deals are at least somewhat exclusive.

I think it's more about a risk-reward situation. Sure, we could probably solve the problem, but the cost of an "oops" is contaminating or possibly destroying the only other possible life in the universe we know of.

There's a great scene in the movie "Free Enterprise" with a teen yelling, "Mom, Mr. Spock: alien! Dr. Spock: baby guy".

I think that's always the plan, just getting that good/great guy in the first place is the hard part.

I got 99 problems, and a clear sky isn't one. Wait, I screwed that up; that is one of the problems.

I think he's railing at questionable employment practices. It your business model is "people are expected to work 60 hour weeks at 40 hour week pay", your business model is broken. Or you're just greedy. The only reason it works is there's a surplus of people that are capable of being a manager at a restaurant so if someone were to fight for a 40-hour work week they'd be fired. That economy used to work when labor wasn't treated as disposable. And there are companies that don't push their employees to work more than 40 hours. But there are more companies that look for profit over giving their workers a fair shake. Someone above talked about value, it'd be interesting to see if there's a correlation between happy workers and productivity. I think there are studies, but I'm not sure. One things for sure, most employees aren't going to out of their way to help if they feel like they're being abused.

I don't think Bogo has played yet, the Sabres are cycling through the raft of AHL D right now.

They can ridicule all they like as long as they're hearing it 4-5 times a night.

I think your second paragraph is a bit off base. post WW2 into the 80s, The economy was strong enough that labor wasn't "disposable" so companies had to treat worker with some respect. The ecomony was strong at least in part due to massive government spending on military (cold war) and the space race, along with a more educated populace due to the GI Bill (more government spending). Once the 80s rolled around and due to automation and increased international trade, labor became less scarce so companies no longer had to treat their employers well. In the late 1800s, the country certainly did NOT act act as a community, the rich were out to step on anyone and anything they could to get more rich. I see the same thing happening now, it's just a matter if we're at the bottom (in terms of rich-greed) or if things swing back towards labor before I retire. I'm trying to figure out how four salaried employees working 60 is the same as six working 40. I highly doubt the managers are getting overtime. And you're right, touch screens (and ordering via apps) will eventually replace fast-food workers on the front end. And then we'll start hearing about how teens are lazy because they won't go out and get jobs.

Dread PIrates Roberts.

I'm sure the NHL logo is on all the uniforms somewhere, which is black and silver. :)

Seems like I just posted this here, but it may have been somewhere else; http://archive.pressconnects.com/article/20140518/SPORTS/305170006/Weinstein-Old-Dusters-brawl-still-one-ages

Just a note on this that I keep seeing repeated. It's pretty unlikely that the State Department (or most government agencies) are going to let random phones connect to their mail servers from the internet. We're not talking about configuring Gmail and Yahoo mail on the same phone. Email is one of the primary vectors for malware delivery, and companies that are serious about network security do two things: don't allow client connections to external email services, and don't expose their email services (other than inbound, of course) to the internet. At best, your company (or agency, in this case), may provide a secure app environment on a phone that handles the "company" information separate from the rest of the phone, but even that has some security implications. And it's worth repeating that there are folks that are trying to get into US government networks every single day and compromising the "public" side of a phone as a vector to the "secure" side is an enticing attack vector. In short, it's very likely she couldn't have both email services on one phone. That doesn't excuse setting up your own email server, or whining about carrying two devices in any way. As someone above mentioned, that's the stuff that gets normal people fired or arrested. Carry two devices, suck it up.

Hmm, were dudes a requirement?

Slices? Pizza should be in log format only for this case.

(Seriously, listen to lyrics of "Come on Eileen" and "Don't You Want Me" and feel a little icky)

And when the techs find trace evidence of maple syrup that only comes from a very rare maple tree, one of which is on Kane's property and has a tap, we're into Bones or CSI: Miami territory. Dude, it really did read like you were questioning whether she went to the hospital. Accept that you didn't express yourself well. The only other explanation is that you're holding the somewhat naive view that once the rape kit was in possession of the "the authorities", nothing strange could possibly happen to it. Evidence disappears or is tampered with from time to time, and it wouldn't be impossible that some idiot either connected to the Kane camp or trying to protect a "hero" hockey player messed with it.

Heh, a band I was in used to cover that song, including a time at a talent show where our new lead singer decided to do it death metal style. Not cool. I like Swords, although folks are right that the alternates versions are probably better for this use. I suggested awhile back that "The Heavy - How you like me now?" would make a really solid choice, but I never bothered to suggest it to anyone in power. Catchy song that people *may* sing along too, as well as the Sabres saying "how you like me now?" to the fans and the league that despised them the last two years. Cut it up with the lead in and skip to 0:43 for just the chorus or something.

I'm surprised Swords of a Thousand Men is up there, that's awesome. I haven't listened through the playlist yet, but I hope they use this cover instead of the original:
