Sabres Fan in NS

Have either of them actually said that they want out? I have not seen a report, or heard a report of that. Samson is RFA now. His contract expired on July 1st, no?

I like him. He's not a star, but he's not terrible and I think he fits the new Sabre mold pretty well. Seems like maybe KA specifically wanted him and made sure he was included. Are those Swedish Meatballs for the new coachie?

An @Eleven blame the phone moment ...

I know that you knew and I know the expression. 😉

Nothing ... it's all haram.

Not a fan of the 30th President?

I really believe that both will be Sabres long-term. Jack has a contract and I believe Samson will be signed to a cap friendly 7, or 8, year deal.

It's a good thing that I really like talking to myself ... lol!! Hey @Sabel79, we are running out of time for the highly anticipated humilition of this England squad. I have a sinking feeling that it may not happen this time around. I am counting on the Italians in the final, whom I picked to win this Euro from the start.

Jack. Maybe Samson.

Mostly, if not all, without Jack. That's the big difference.

Final now ... 4 - 0 England to face Denmark in the semis. Italy and Spain in the other. Both look to be good matches. I think Italy and England will meet in the final.

Now 4 - 0 ...

Kane with the brace and Maguire early in the second half have England up 3 - 0.

Still making my way through ... A Brief History of Time. Great book, but very heavy. If you know what I mean? I am about half way through and it's getting tough.

Kane in the 4th minute has England ahead of Ukraine.

That score held. Denmark are through to the semi finals.

Patrik Schick is really good. 2 -1 Denmark in the 70th minute.

Denmark up 1 - nil on the Czech Republic on an early goal.

Not sure, but it won't be Hard Knocks featuring (yet again) the football team from Dallas. If they really want to do something worth while on that show I suggest using one of the football sides from Manchester, maybe both. Can you imagine the Hard Knocks between Man C and Man U? Awesome!!

Which is what he was brought here to be. It just turned into a terrible situation all round.

That kind of 'glitch' (??) has happened a few times. When in doubt blame the damn phone. That's my motto.

Yup. That was outlined in the forward to the book I am now reading. Not only do you not like using the metric system for day to day life, you have your own 'imperial' system that was different than the one we used to use, which was based on the old English Imperial system, which is not that surprising when you think about it. Your gallon is pretty much exactly 4 litres, which is a bit less than our old imperial gallon. About the only place that the old system is still used in Canada is in contruction measurements for materials and lengths / widths. A 2 x 4 is still called that and it is sold by the foot not metre.

HABS IN 7!!

The Measure of All Things. All this talk of the metric system sent me to our personal library to find the above. It's the story of 2 French scientists that set out during the French Revolution (1792) on a 7 year quest to measure a metre and set the world to a standard (metric) measurement. Seems that there is a slight error in their calculations that still holds true. By the way, you in USA are slowly converting to the metric system, but most of you will nto notice. You are the only major country that does not use it, so for economic reasons you have no other choice.

GO HABS!!
