When are names being changed back? Just sayin.

It's a Rick Night. To use a rare Jeanneretism, they're going to be scarcer than hen's teeth from now on.

They did finish the season in 15th place. They went 16-4-4 after that fateful day, on which Elly May was not introduced as co-owner, sat quietly in the front row, made sandwiches after the presser and dutifully accepted her assignment to redecorate the lockerroom.

What's with having to fight traffic merging onto the 33 from I-90 while trying to exit the 33 to go west on I-90? (If it's "the 90," I apologize.) It's Clover Madness.

They were 27-25-6 and five points out of eighth on that fateful day — the day Buddy Ebsen couldn't pick Perreault out of police lineup, said Lindy wasn't going anywhere, challenged the press to tell him what Darcy had done wrong, said of Regier that he could "work with him," urged the Buffalo News to be more positive in its coverage to help the players perform better, and said he liked "hard-working, gritty players."

The run seemed to coincide with rumours of Pegula buying the team. They definitely weren't in last place (defined how?) on 2/22/11.

Did you even read the story?

Barring something viral, I'm guessing he was typing too fast and was already thinking of the #s in Sabres.

A bit strong. They were good. We went to the one in Larkinville.

All I saw was a decal of Cuomo on a mirror. Andrew, to be clear.

Gabriel's Gate has good wings. Paula makes a nice donut.

Dahlin's expression after the goal reminded me of my infamous thread. Derp.

Is there no common sense left? The crossbar is four feet off the ice. Look where the puck contacts the stick and tell me it's not over four feet off the ice. Optical illusions are fun, and for once I'll pull a SwampD. Bucci tipped the league's hand. It had to count.

Went to the game with my nephew. It was cold, and there were at least a few flakes (a lot of them when we got there), which was my dream. All in all it was a dehumanizing and humiliating experience... and that was before they had first and goal at the 6 and got nothing. Seriously, one of out three "humans" who attended that game need to be sucked deep below the Mud Lot and never seen again. Hadn't gone in over 20 years. Things are much worse. I will not be back.

Squirrel!

I suspect Dodo will hang your hat on the bedpost tonight.

For about 20 years it seems. I've enjoyed it tonight. Not sure why.

I can't disagree.

Thank you so much! @The Ghost of Doohickie

Why did this post show up suddenly?

I think the first two sentences can co-exist (and necessarily have to co-exist in a society that values free speech). I also think the following two sentences can co-exist. The thread was fine. Deleting it was the right thing to do.

Much respect to Rick for pointing out other cancer care providers in Buffalo besides Roswell.

Dan, I started the thread that questioned your performance in the booth. Although my take was balanced with good and bad; although the replies contained some support for you; although the discussion was generally respectable; and although sportscasters, like players, are fair game for criticism — it clearly was, in retrospect given your comments tonight on the air, the very worst time to have such a discussion. We didn't know. I started it, and I just deleted it. I feel terrible that this discussion might have added to the stress you're enduring. My best wishes to you and your wife. –PASabreFan
