Porous Five Hole

My son is a freshman in a suburb in ROC. He’s reading To Kill A Mockingbird right now. Book reports have changed, but written understanding is confirmed in other ways. There are no textbooks any longer. There are paper handouts (especially math to show the work), but equally as much is completed online. In his freshman year, teachers are allowing for corrections on both tests and homework…and will give partial—or full credit—if proven the student learned what they did wrong. A lot has changed, but a lot is still the same.

Greenway and Beck can stay for now in large part to the fact that they are a regular on the best PK in the league. Peyton Krebs tho…WOOF. It’s time to pull the plug on his spot in the lineup. He brings nothing to the table.

This morning, the Bill ruled TE Dalton Kincaid, WR Curtis Samuel, and WR Mecole Hardman Jr. out for Thursday's game. Even if Moore draws in first, Keon has a spot.

😳

Yes and the coach met with the local beat reporters today after the morning skate and no one thought to ask about it. 🤷

Benson hasn’t practiced since the injury, so he’s out tonight for sure.

It is Native American Heritage Night and allowing Fanatics to display their logo on the front of the jersey is poopy, but these jerseys are awesome.

Kind of funny. Dennis Gilbert signed in Buffalo last year and then got traded to Ottawa in the Cozens deal. Last offseason, Gilbert left in free agency to sign with Philadelphia. Today, Gilbert gets traded to Ottawa again just two months into this season. Ottawa cannot quit Dennis Gilbert. The list of teams trading for the same player in consecutive seasons has to be pretty low.

Winning weekend!

Night two of the road trip. The Amerks dominated the first period and lead 3-1 after one.

I’m in Sally’s parking lot right now stalking the front door for opening at 10:30. Breakfast of champions!

Rochester was five hours, but we got a weekend’s worth of games so we did it. Currently at Rudy’s at the edge of Yale University having a beer before turning in.

Credit to the Amerks tonight. They were the grittier team the last 40 minutes and earned the tying goal with 2:55 left in the 3rd on the PP when they had to have it (Kuntar). Then after surviving a Hartford chance and a scramble in front of the net in OT, Fiddler-Schultz BURIED a 2 on 1 the other way from the scramble. No need to pass. Snipe show. Amerks down 3-1 after one and with their backup between the pipes and they grind out two points. Well done! Let’s do it again tomorrow.

Sure will! If I see you, I’ll say hi.
