I am Defecting

I think that a lot of us need to stand up and put ourselves out there, for elections, if we are going to change anything. Otherwise, we're like the dude from Major League that hates the Indians, and then loves the Indians. I think that politics are more important, in the long run than sports and entertainment, but we're a bit stuck right now as a country. I think that once the average citizen takes a more active role in politics we could save ourselves from needless hardships. I think that the guy at the front lines has a lot to report, and would benefit from being part of the discussion. One thing that I believe is that things are changing with the information age, and that it is getting harder for anyone to con anyone else. I think that the progress that will be made in the political sphere will rely on solid information. In some cases, a guy proposing a law will be saying the opposite of what the rest of the world is believing. In this day and age, there should be citizens who are willing to speak out against that type of misinformation, and from there we all ought to progress.

Well, Crosschecking, know that we are thinking of you, and that if you wish to divorce your wife, so that you can still be able to post on SabreSpace, that you have a support group. But, in the long run, it may not be worth it.

Crosschecking, I summon YOU! Now somebody ought to throw some garbage at the Arena from the Skyway. I'll alert the News, he'll check the board then, and respond.

Draw for Madrid doesn't look good. I'd be glad for Athletico. I was rooting for Liverpool, strangely, and am coming off Manchester United fanhood. With an ocean-wide perspective, who needs Rooney? Hoping MLS.

Nobody dies in SabreSpace, bro. People come back from the grave on this site.

The price went up?! Well it's about time!!! I've been rooting for them to be terrible for ever! I hate this team!!! But the fact that I can drink more free beer while watching them lose, makes it worth the price of admission! Now, if only they could lose more games... what do you say we re-pick Ville Leino with our first free-agent, I mean draft pick? Ha, ha, with a first time GM, we're ripe for plundering!!! Whadger say we just tell the good'uns to stay down next year? Then, we'll be REALLY bad, RIGHT?!! Ha, ha, the "best prospects" in the NHL, LOL! Because we want to LOSE AS MANY GAMES AS POSSIBLE, BECAUSE WE WANT TO SUCK, right? Right? Whip it! (whip it)... Next year, Amerks... Whip it Real Good! I LOVE IT WHEN THEY LOSE! I WANT BEER WHEN THE AMERKS LOSE!!! THANK YOU TERRY!!!

You missed the fact that Pegula bought the Sabres in order to segway into fracking the hell out out NYS. Good thing your buddies PA and GoDD, were hip to the track, because it could have got radioactive up in this state without them. In the meantime, many Southern Tier towns, Buffalo and now Amherst are passing measures in response to Pegula's "on ice" product.

Gerard also had offers from Manchester United, when they were Champions. Suarez is also in contention for Best Player in the World. Speaking of which, there is something about Ronaldo that impresses me above Messi. I think that the comparison is Maradona vs. Pele Part 2. Ronaldo and Messi are making a strong case for being the best ever. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBkQND72C4c

Mack looks good in the 3-4, as well as many others, thanks Tank. It might be dreamland to move up for Mack, but I think that his MAC status might work to the Bills advantage if they were to offer something big.

What if we cheered for winning, and booed for losing?

So I wonder if the Bills will move up in the draft. Since a new owner is coming in within 2 years, I'd think that the brass is going to try to prove themselves. So they could move up in the draft to get a big name, and I think that they would try to do that this year. How would you get your new bosses attention, if you knew that you were going to get a new boss? Still, dunno, but it will take a vision to keep the job, imo.

I heard the Schopp-end response to a caller, driving home from work. Full credit for the way that he explained it, but I surmised that one can have a great defense, like the Seahawks, or a great offense, like the Patriots, to win a Superbowl. I didn't hear the caller, but I'd guess his point was that we could be great by investing in defense this draft early on. The Bills are closer on defensive dominance, for sure, given the recent franchise sack record. There might be something to the idea of grabbing the BPOD, and then grab the Best of the Rest offensively. Dunno.

It hasn't ended with the Crimea, and we need to isolate Russia, and reinforce the fact that they are going too far, and losing ground diplomatically. For example, the Ukraine will soon look like Germany 1988. One third of the population of Eastern Ukraine will jump ship before a new Berlin Type wall is built to keep the occupants inside. I think that Putin has overstepped his bounds. He's asking for trouble by invading the North-Eastern Ukraine. It's no longer the case that Russia is defending democracy, as they were in the Crimea. Now, they are sticking their necks out too far, and the further that neck sticks out... like Napoleon.

Listen guys! You're deaf. "If you listen to A LOT of the other GMs, and ANY of the people in hockey, they KNOW that what we're doing, takes A LOT of COURAGE! uh, but it is... They're ALMOST envious that we're ABLE to DO IT!, and that's because the COMMITMENT that TERRY and Kim PEGULA have made to, to do this the RIGHT WAY!" Joe Battista, Sabres, '13-'14, (21-51-10).

Don't trust me to bet, btw. I'd be all about impressing the women, and forget all about which horse was running in which race. Lovely hats though.

You'll have to talk me out of Chitu, boss. My trifecta would be Chitu, Wicked, A-Rod. I haven't bet since I had to lie to my mom, way back in 5th grade, to cover Super Bowl XXV. I said it was for school supplies, but the $5 bet was on the Bills. I'd put $420 on Chitu, if I had it.

For cherry tomatoes, I would recommend Sungold, which are worth the taste, and you could order them now from whomever and plant them after the last frost. Same rules apply for my favorite full-sized tomato, Cosmonaut Volkov. I've tried a lot, and that's my favorite all-purpose tomato. I wouldn't recommend growing for sauce, because those tomatoes aren't as good fresh, but for making sauce, it's worth buying tomato past to quicken the process. My favorite company is Fedco, for seeds. They are unique, and if you're just looking for a few seeds, there's easier. There's a lot of other good tomatoes. I hate to say it, but the Russians are good at breeding 'our climate' tomatoes, so that's something to look for. Grass clippings are good mulch, once you get your tomatoes planted. It can be applied up to 6" thick, and will keep any weeds down, while feeding the worms that will fertilize the garden. If you've got a bagger on your mower, you are sitting in marinara.

STOP IT, YOU BUNCH OF MEANIES!!! NO!! NO MEANS, NO!!!

Oh, I feel good now. We've got nothing but awesome third jerseys now.

RED AND BLACK! The time is near So near it's stirring the blood in their veins! And yet beware... Don't let the wine go to your brains! We need a sign Something to rally the people and bring them to arms, and to bring them in line! "Marcellus, wake up! What's wrong today? You look as if you've seen a ghost. Some wine and say what's going on!" "A ghost you say, a ghost maybe It was just like a ghost to me One minute there, and it was gone!" "I am agog! I am aghast! Is Marcellus in love at last? I've never heard him 'ooh' and 'aah' You talk of battles to be won And here he comes like Don Juan It's better than an opera!" "It is time for us all To decide who we are Do we fight for the right To a night at the F'NC now? Have you asked of yourselves What's the price you might pay? Is it simply a game For rich young boys to play? The color of the world Is changing day by day" Red: the blood of angry men! Black: the dark of ages past! Red: a world about to dawn! Black: the night that ends at last! "Had you seen it today You might know how it feels To be struck to the bone In a moment of breathless delight! Had you been there today You might also have known How the world may be changed In just one burst of light! And what was right seems wrong And what was wrong seems right!" Red: I feel my soul on fire! Black: My world if it's not there! Red: The color of desire! Black: The color of despair! "Marcellus, you're no longer a child I do not doubt you mean it well But now there is a higher call. Who cares about your lonely soul? We strive toward a larger goal Our little lives don't count at all!" Red: the blood of angry men! Black: the dark of ages past! Red: a world about to dawn! Black: the night that ends at last! Listen everybody! General Battista is dead! Battista! His death is the hour of fate. The people's man. His death is the sign we await! On his funeral day they will honor his name. With the light of rebellion ablaze in their eyes With their candles of grief we will kindle our flame On the tomb of Battista shall our barricade rise The time is here! Let us welcome it gladly with courage and cheer Let us take to the streets with no doubt in our hearts But a jubilant shout They will come one and all They will come when we call!

Wheez talkin' 'bout the bloody mucus that ya'll never suspected bros.

I like your style, but for the uninitiated among us, I want to suggest some varieties of tomatoes that do better than others in a hanging pot, in case someone is starting things from seed. Some tomatoes are bred for this type of cultivation, particularly Tumblin' Toms. Those will provide some reliable tomatoes from a hanging basket, as well as many other small cherry, or currant types. Avoid tomatoes that are advertised as being tall, for your hanging baskets, as these tend to require equivalent root space for their height requirements. It' the same idea as cannabis ruderalis.

I think that it is eye-catching, like bloody sputum.

I am fully onboard with throwing rotten garbage at the First Niagara Center from the Skyway.

I think that you're counting on Patrick Kane, or Sidney Crosby, and NOT the eventual Sabres draft pick. It's more than just the player.
