  1. THAT'S Buffalo Sabres hockey right there.
  2. Well there's a turn of phrase. Susceptible? I always took it as carrying water.
  3. Lol. For this very reason, I generally call that value "NHL .500" or "Bettman .500" And IRL, I call the other value "true .500."
  4. Let's Go, Buffalo! [deleted @deluca67 .500 comment.]
  5. Was Norris taking faceoffs last night? From what I've gathered, he's sustained at least 2 serious injuries (one on opening night this season) as a result of taking a faceoff.
  6. Well, there is that. He has done a very good job. I would go so far as to say he's done a great job. But I realize many (most) would say he has not been great because of the playoff disappointments. Maybe it's my landing in middle age. Maybe it's paying more attention to certain aspects of the games. Maybe it's the Hamlin incident and the ambulance coming onto the field for Micah (among others) during my time as a STH (which dates to Josh's 4th season (2021-2022)). For whatever reasons, I feel exceptionally aware of how hard a game pro football is. Brutal, really. And winning a game in that league? As hard as it gets.
  7. He's a dynamic player who can drive play and finish. We just need to pray that he can stay (mostly) healthy.
  8. Easy now. In my experience, McDermott uses that phrase -- "it's hard to win in the NFL" -- as a mantra. It's conspicuous and notable. Which is why it wound up rooted in my brain.** ** A brain that sits in a head over which you launch your jokes, evidently.
  9. i was unaware of this. i have so few memories of him. maybe essentially none? i picked up on this trope (truism) from mcdermott. dude says it all the time, and has been saying it for years.
  10. doesn't much matter. they can't and won't beat another opponent the way they beat the steelers. it's a week to week league. (another NFL cliche that is an absolute truth bomb.)
  11. If there's one truth (cliche) that I fully embrace about the NFL, it's that every win is worth enjoying because it is fu**ing hard to win in that league. Hard as hell. Go Bills!
  12. what an absolute delight that game turned out to be. a lovely capping off of the long holiday weekend. beat the bengals!
