Eleven

I'm going to miss the beginning of this, but I will join you all in progress. I ask for a robust thread through the first period with well-developed descriptions, and perhaps highlights, of all five of the Sabres goals that will be scored during that period. Thank you.

A ***** beer and a ***** bourbon team up and it results in something nice to drink? I will have to try one. (Actually, come to think of it, on the rare occasion that I want a beer, it's Bud.)

I'd no idea that Seguin lived in a trailer park.

Doughty is making some interesting stylistic choices.

Mylanta in pacem. (See insomnia thread.)

So tonight I'm experimenting with making fake Latin-sounding phrases with some real Latin words. For example: Pax et Coolio. Madonna, frito con dies. Ave Mogilny.

This is the problem with meme culture.

She's also gorgeous. More seriously, she is direct, she is on point, she has good ideas, and she's NOT A BOOMER.

We were *right there* in 1992. It was so ripe, and the candidate was just about perfect, too. Do it; you now have three votes (counting Swamp and yourself).

I know why I do.

1. Who is that and OMG those hips! 2. I actually dumped a second-string defense for Kareem Hunt for when he comes back.

Philadelphia is going to come into OP with a huge attitude problem given what's going on tonight. The Bills had better be prepared. And they'd better have Milano ready to go, too.

Anyone else remember those old Toyota ads?

I remember something about Griese calling out Ferguson on Twitter after that loss.

Unfortunately, I don't think PA is much of a football fan, so we may never know.

Allen is still developing (so is Truby, for a few more games). I've said more than once that I give a qb 40 games for evaluation. As for losing by 5 in the 4th? I can tell who the young ones are, I guess. We never worried about that with Kelly, and I don't worry about that with Allen.

That is such hyperbole. The team was not in danger of losing. Geez. This is where I had to stop. There's no way that's even autocorrect.

Wow. Didn't expect some of these reactions. Allen was fine. He overthrew a couple, but he was right on the money with many more. And no interceptions or fumbles, either. Phillips was fine, too.

Well, secondary market tickets will be about a third of what they would have been if it were the Yanks, right? Are you still trying to find a way to go?

I am so gassed from this week that I'm going to observe this game like I did 40 years ago: transistor radio. The only missing element is my mom to take the earphone (yes, it was AN earphone and that was a thing) out and kiss me goodnight. Also, I will have to make my own breakfast tomorrow. I guess that's two things.

The Geneva Jalapeños beat the Batavia Red Hots for the Kane County (Illinois) 10U girls' softball championship this afternoon..

Hockey demands whites at home. I am so, so sick of this third sweater BS. All it means is that we see every away team's whites at the arena.

O'Reily's looking a little floaty out there today.

Yes: Mice, cockroaches, rats, other vermin. It's part of NYC life.
