Hmmm. So maybe that explains one of the mysteries of Sabres history for me. Why Phil was booed so lustily when he took the mic to congratulate Gretzky at the Aud for breaking his goal record. That might be fun for the fans. I wonder about the value of hate when it comes to being a professional athlete. I'm not sure where it gets you. You're going to drop that nugget and not tell the story?

Maxine Waters. Not sure if doing right. It's old thinking, hating the Bruins. It's a new epoch. Let's practice hating the Lightning. We're going to need it sooner than later.

Fear! Loathing!

This thread has disgusted and infuriated me so far. I implore all to be better. I was wondering if I can watch a replay on E+.

As soon as robots take vitals and tell people to STFU there's no more prune juice I'm there.

Do people really still care?

When is your recall to your home planet? It can't come soon enough.

Sure looked like more actual fannies in the seats.

Keep ridin the coattails Dan.

Now that he's gone, I think it's OK to say how we felt about him.

This thread, so far, sucks!

No GOGOY?

Alas, 4-2 is 4-2. I don't know whose hill is bigger or sadder, but we're both dying on it!

Haven't read before this. Fascinating situation. I believe it was a feel decision more than a statistical decision. The way TN drove down the field, perhaps McD figured his chances in OT were less, although maybe only modestly less, than converting on fourth down (and scoring) or converting and scoring. I liked the decision. The play call? Not so much? The stats guys can break down your chance of getting fourth and one with the QB behind center and everyone locked and loaded vs. the QB being in the shotgun and the defense more spread out. Gutsy. I like McD a little more because of it.

What did we tell you about the breakfast burritos?

I appreciate the chuckle, but to me this scene on Washington St. was more poignant than comical. It's Game 2 and already the world has wadded up and discarded the Sabres. Even the leaves aren't paying much attention. Well, just the one that decided to get all up in Hagg's grill. (It fell off a nearby thorny tree.) If I was DG, I would show the team this picture and tell them this is what the universe and the hockey gods have cooked up for them. Then I'd tell them, in my best Perreault, let's go beat those ***** frogs! (Check.)

I had to send Terry a freakin' Christmas card.

Love it. Or a big save.

Why wait?

This is silly. There's no need to fit in. In fact, I'd discourage it.
