I mentioned cleveland as a slight exception there--but you are correct i shoulda emphasized that more. KC had 2 good years and look at the horrific fall they took cuz they couldnt afford anyone.They are consistently poor. TB isnt small market...they have a third of FL. Milwaukee is great right now....thatll last a year or two.last 30 they have been downright mediocre.Which is my point.

not really. you have to incl rochester in there. pitts includes that big of an area when doing their metro...so does cleveland and so does st louis. either way they are all small market teams.

huhh?

i remember that fiasco...and knew a guy who worked on that supposed project.That mighta given little Buffalo FOUR major league teams.Crazy.

yep its tough for smaller market teams .only st louis comes to mind as a small market team that has had great success in the past 30 yrs in baseball. kc,balt,cleve,pitt,minn,milw,colorado,cincy,...all sketchy--short trips toward the top followed by mediocrity.altho id give cleveland decent marks for staying competitive

yep

Buffalos metro area pop has increased the past 10 yrs. sliiiiiiiightly..... Rochesters metro area is a fantasy made up by someone-----cripe they include half the damn state--incl livestock.

I still think TB wins the series. But if they dont...wow what a wasted brilliant season.

good question. but i think my advice is good.

i thought a 20 yr olds body would be moving fast and the mind slow... Excellent hockey skills ur correct....but thats gonna have to overcome not great speed and strength

Bills the same thing exc worse. NHL The only league in the world with a 50% chance of making the playoffs. You are correct about it taking effort to suck so badly. They should just take whatever decisions pop into their brains...and do the opposite. That would solve the problems.

dont do it. Schoney to the rescue

thankfully the sabres are a deep team

and Denver Pyle..patriarch of THE DARLINGS--that bluegrass group on AGshow and Bob Denver was the daughter's fiancee on the show.

Where is Jim Schoenfeld?? He could probbly still get on the ice..suit and tie and all...and protect our players when they get cheapshotted. Ted Nolan,Schoney and Larry Playfair as assistant coaches.Rob ray as the 'younger' head coach to relate to the players more. Laviolette?

That of course isnt the point.Its what you lose during the tank process.Losing is like a bad virus..its hard to get rid of. indeed it did

maynards second cousin...from Mt Pilot

and after 4 yrs look at their teams. a disgrace. tanking doesn't help anyone.

I remember Peyton Krebs from the Andy Griffith show

ahhhh….that's the quandary

I think darksabre was just goofing when he made that statement. Cuz everything is racist now.

..well i think an actual racist is different than someone who just says something incredibly stupid. re your hockey comments I agree with you. The D this year was frighteningly weak..And the offense wasnt capable of doing what he taught ..OR he didnt coach them properly.

this couldnt possibly be true..could it??

its so sad what has become of this proud franchise in the past 7yrs

we have no grinders that was an unfortunate use of words by her....bill Clinton woulda laughed his arss off at that one
