The US govt has had secret projects and programs since it’s birth. And they kill and will continue to kill to keep those projects secret. Why do you think gasoline is still the prominent reliable fuel in the world to power vehicles? why do you think metered electrical power is the predominant energy source for homes? do you think the technology hasn’t been created? A cheaper or free technology? Why do you think certain drugs and vaccines come on the market, and allegedly it’s the only game in town to help or cure a human condition? it’s all about the Benjamins. Once they figure a way to monetize it, then it gets exposed or brought into the light. It always has and it always will. On the topic of UFOs, it will be interesting to see the next step in monetizing that exposure now. Instill a certain level of fear. Then … Buy this, wear that, eat this, avoid that, increase tax, spend more money etc. and I frankly couldn’t care less if someone thinks that sounds completely insane and impossible to happen or have happened.

What forward did the Sabres select with the eighth overall pick in the 2017 NHL draft? On August 7, 1992 The Sabres traded Stephane Beauregard and a fourth round draft pick to the Blackhawks for what goaltender? Who replaced Rick Dudley as coach of the Sabres in the 1991 1992 season?

Good analysis! I would like to see À la cart pricing per channel. And just see how many people do in fact like it over the long term. Living in Western New York, I personally stream spectrum through Roku. so I just pay spectrum for Internet and a cable package through streaming. And I split the cost with a friend for Disney+. And a family member allows me to log into their Hulu account to watch any ESPN+ Sabres games if I need to. That is all I do. No Netflix, no Paramount+, no Max, no Amazon prime. So I get all MSG Sabres games, and all regional TNT games. For me personally, if I couldn’t access any ESPN+ games anymore through my Family member, I would not pay the extra money to get Hulu and ESPN+. I would rather miss three or four Sabres games a season and not pay for Hulu and ESPN+. But that’s just me.

Best Vacation Destination a Tank of Gas or Less from Buffalo
Zamboni replied to JoeSchmoe's topic in The Aud Club
Good point about the Canadian to American money conversion. I took what I found on a website about gas prices on average that were recorded yesterday for Ontario. And in liters. I multiplied that by 3.7 L which equals 1 gallon. so for me that conversion came to $6.23 per gallon. And yes that would be in Canadian money. I then found a website that records average gas prices for New York State. I think that data it was only a few days old. And that was $3.75 in American money. So yes, I forgot to do the conversion. I overlooked that. you obviously found different numbers… So be it. 👍🏼 The overall point whether it be my numbers or your numbers is… Ontario pays much more per gallon than New York State. obviously you can get into all kinds of wormhole/completely off-topic reasons why that is…. And I certainly am not interested at all in discussing that here. And I bet absolutely no one is interested in reading it either. Because that is not what the question was and that’s not the overall point anyway. 👍🏼 -

With the conversion of Litres to Gallons …. The average price of regular unleaded gas in Ontario Canada as of yesterday is $6.23 per gallon. NY State is $3.75 per gallon. -
In my opinion they should do à la cart. Have a basic package of say 12 channels. Some of them being “local” where applicable. Have a set fee of say $50 which includes any fees and surcharges etc. Then, every channel you want past those 12 channels is an extra $2.00 a month. Let the bad channels die out, and let the good channels thrive and succeed. So if you want a grand total of 24 channels, it would be $50 + $24 for the additional 12 channels you want à la cart. So your tv cable bill would be $74 a month. I am just spit balling, and of course the totals can be adjusted to be more monetarily attractive to more people. I think more people would pay for that gladly knowing that all the channels they are receiving are exactly the channels they want. And I still think the cable companies would make an absolute killing with that price structure because more people would stay or come back to cable services like spectrum instead of streaming.

Oh c’mon @Eleven, you know better than to complain about this! There are very few catchall threads. I mean if you wanted to discuss Tage Thompson, it would have to be a summer discussion or off-season thread. then if you wanted to discuss Tage Thompson after Sept 24th, you would need to make a regular season Tage Thompson thread. then if Tage Thompson gets injured, you would need to make a injury discussion thread. then if he was out for a couple weeks and came back, you would have to make a … Tage Thompson gets inserted back into the lineup where does everybody else shuffle to? thread. then if Tage Thompson and his wife were expecting a kid, you would have to make a thread about that. then if you wanted to discuss Tage Thompson in prior seasons compared to this season, you would have to make a thread about that. then if you wanted to discuss Tage Thompson and whether or not he is a true number one center in the NHL, you would have to make a thread about that. then if … and that goes for all the players, and coaches. So having three or four or seven threads about KA is quite usual. 😬

It’s early March, The team has a great record. They look awesome. They are going to make the playoffs no doubt. Only injury is skinner who has been out for a couple weeks and won’t return until the end of March. Then … Dahlin goes down with an injury that takes him out for the season. Next game, Tuch goes down with an injury. He’ll be out for a few weeks. Next game it’s noticeable TNT isn’t playing like he used to and looks to be playing thru an injury. The goaltending duo starts to slip in the next few weeks. They miss the playoffs by a couple points. Fire KA? Fire DG?

Read thru the thread, I’m sure you aren’t the first person who has inquired about this 👍🏼 There are a few threads on the subject I believe as well.

As of August 5th … days until puck drop

Poor McDavid is not going to get a cup in Edmonton. If only he went to a younger team that was on the rise and he wasn’t the only center of attention on the team. Hmmm I wonder what teams fit that description.

Mammoth cave is awesome. There are a few caves between Buffalo and Kentucky that are pretty cool as well. 👍🏼

What defenseman had a career high 31 goals for the Sabres in 1983-1984? What goaltender played in 59 games for the Sabres in 2016-2017? What number did Jim Lorentz wear?

I saw Pantera at the Connecticut st. Armory back in the early 90’s for the Vulgar Display of Power tour. Sick show. I toyed with going to DL for this show but I hate DL for all concerts and I don’t care for music venues with seating. And with the death of the Abbott brothers, it just doesn’t motivate me to go see the limited lineup. Hope it’s good for you. Side note: I’m sure you are aware of the background story of the goal song for the Dallas Stars and Pantera. Cool story!

The summer doldrums of hockey. Propose an NHL rule change.
Zamboni replied to Porous Five Hole's topic in The Aud Club
Minor penalties last for two minutes no matter how many goals are scored during the PP. Get rid of the skills challenge otherwise known as the OT shoot out. Get rid of the goalie trapezoid behind the net. But also have them be fair game to be checked hard if they hang onto the puck too long like any player. Any and all deliberate shots to the head with a stick, shoulder, knee, elbow or fist, is an immediate game misconduct. And an immediate review to see if more Game suspensions are warranted. Level of injury does not equal length of penalty or suspension. -
This is the way. I personally find individual goal songs amateur hour.

It’s the stormy cloud effect. Don’t say anything positive, unless you quickly follow up with something negative to balance it out so you don’t come off as having a PMA. Having a negative POV is kewl. I personally think the Sens are a step or two behind the Sabres in most aspects. Most. I definitely wouldn’t swap rosters that’s for sure. No thank you.
