  1. Those Met's, from that vintage, were, between Stawberry and Gooden, about the best signature one could expect on on one's glove, from where one got gloves at the time, hehe. If you weren't a weirdo from Scranton. But if you were a weirdo from Scranton, at least you weren't from Boca Raton, which was the worst in those days. At the very least, one could pretend to be from Buffalo, though, which, in those days, was the coolest. Even the owners aren't pretending these days. 'd
  2. Texas won that World Series in 5 games. I didn't care about that series in the same way that I care about Buffalo teams, but, good for you. You're welcome. I reserve the right to revise some things, remember...
  3. To clarify, for the masses: I'll give you a championship, so long as the owner doesn't destroy our local water with his business. That just means giving up on NYS rights he holds (in expectation of cashing in on. So, he wouldn't be getting that fracking boom for the Trophy, Rather, I'd be taking that away from him, in exchange For... The Trophy. Hopefully he's Buffalo enough to take the offer... But we all know he's from Scranton, however welcoming we've been to him. He might just be a Boca Raton guy.
  4. Red Sox Syracuse I'd let the Bills into the club if the owner would give up on fracking in NYS. Same with the Sabres. But, I mean, for real. So, It's cosmically up to Pegula, But he's too greedy to give up on NYS. I'll keep hoping he's not so greedy, though. Hopefully he wants a Lombardi enough to give up on his other ambitions.
  5. Hello Everybody, I'm going to divide the Sabres history into thirds in order to give an impartial comparison of different eras: From 1970/71-1987/88 the Sabres win percentage was 54% and they made the playoffs 13 times, going past the 1st round in 7 seasons From 1988/89-2005/06 the Sabres win percentage was 46% making the playoffs 11 times, advancing past the 1st round 6 times From 2006/07-present their win percentage is 44%, making the playoffs 3 times, advancing past the 1st round once If we further divide the present era into sectors, before Pegula, from 2006/07 to 2010/11, the Sabres win percentage was 55%. From Pegula's first complete season as the owner, 2011/12 to present, the Sabres win percentage is 36% and they've made the playoffs zero times. The reason I am not including the 2010/11 season in Pegula's record is because he officially took ownership on February 18th, 2011, 68% of the season already completed, and the only subsequent moves that season were trading a second round pick for Brad Boyes, and waiving Craig Rivet. It's worth noting that the Sabres did make the playoff that transitional season, but lost to the Flyers in the first round. During that same span that Pegula has controlled the Sabres: The Boston Bruins have won 64% The Maple Leafs have won 52% The Senators have won 45% The Arizona Coyotes have won 40% The Buffalo Sabres have won 36% Hopefully, the above math will help to put things into perspective. I can't vouch for it's 100% accuracy. It's pretty close to the truth, but feel free to make you own calculations. ps. I appreciate the welcome, and thank you administrators for hosting this board. I'm grateful to contribute and I appreciate the services you provide. It's really a special place you've got here.
