  1. I suppose we can now agree that Liger is at least as well qualified as whatever scouting staff they have. Youtube ain't hard to operate.
  2. I'll take it a step further. Our most popular posters are often the most combative here. This is who we are. It's not really arguable.
  3. Buffalo News has an interview with Ralph. He likes role players over talent.
  4. Have we heard yet what Ralph thinks of Simmonds? I think he was looking for more veteran toughness as well, no?
  5. I’ll read the whole thread later. My take after reading nothing....... another GM that will need to learn the job as he goes. Me no likey.
  6. My wife is getting tested now. Upper respiratory symptoms. Feels OK otherwise.
  7. What is the current state of the Sabrespace Echo Chamber? Is he still a bad pick, or are we coming around?
  8. I had to go to Home Depot this AM to get a project done at home. We’ll be Locked down again. The state relaxes standards and social distancing goes right out the window. I swear the people have the attention span of a hyper active dog. Squirrel!
  9. I’ll never understand the abuse we hand out to the sports reporters that cover our teams.

  11. It has to be tenure based, right? We’ll pay you a bonus if you’re still here 3 yrs from now.
  12. Gamalon. There is a name from the past...
  13. He wasn’t good enough to crack the roster of a bottom tier team. He made the correct career move and signed with a league where he is good enough. I cannot find fault with Jbott here. Pilut didn’t have value around the league IMO. This feels like gnashing of teeth over not very much at all.
  14. So, traveling under COVID is weird. I’m in Detroit for business. Traffic is less than normal here. Rest stops on the way had almost noone in them. Food vendors closed so you had to hit the vending machines. Made great time though. The hotel has maybe 10 rooms booked. No breakfast buffet. You have to “order” your continental breakfast choice and eat it in your room. Restaurants here opened up at 50% capacity yesterday and the one I ate dinner in had just a fee people in it, which made me feel alot better. Still not comfortable, but at least it isn’t busy.

    Whoa! Spoiler alert.
  16. Yes. The police are showing that they will do what they are told, regardless of whether what they are doing violates a basic bill of rights tenet.
  17. This is where the 2nd Amendment guys really need to take notice. The police are more than willing to follow orders to shut down 1st Amendment displays. Should the time come, what makes anyone think they won't do the same for 2nd Amendment? Just following orders.....
  18. Tom Rivers is a local treasure. He's published a couple of books about the area. Spent a year working in the fields along side tmigrant workers and published the story.. Good stuff. Close. South and west of Rochester. It's a weird place to drive through. The roads are higher than the fields, so you are looking down on them.
  19. Got the kayak out this morning and did some trolling with it. Holy workout, Batman. I paddled about 3 miles out and 3 miles back. My shoulders are spent. Way more paddling than I normally do. It was a good morning though. The walleyes were hitting early. I put a 19.5” in the freezer and lost 2 others. Caught a channel cat as well. They really pull the kayak around. And the bass turned on once the sun was high. Ive earned my afternoon beverage.
  20. My son worked a few summers in the muck. Onions, tomatoes, potatoes, squash...
  21. I see what you did there.
  22. NS bringing the heat.
  23. Resigned from the emergency response team assignment that they have, not from the BPD. And I say, good. Help them further their decisions and show them the door if they don’t understand why that incident was wrong. This city doesn’t need that kind of mentality on its police force. Some of the complaints are that these guys were suspended for following orders. That Supervisor needs to be gone as well if true.
  24. Somewhere on the Twitterverse I stumbled upon someone cataloging the police brutality events at these protests. They were counting specifically camera documented events. If memory serves it was over 200 like 2 or 3 days ago. The number of attacks by cops on media personnel alone is staggering. If this society is going to move forward, all this will need to result in substantive change to how policing is done. Like I said, the tree is badly diseased.
  25. Any good business person knows that you don’t make future decisions based on sunk costs. The cash the Pegulas sunk into the Sabres won’t matter if it makes business sense to sell the team.
