sicknfla Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Between this thread and the one year anniversary gift idea thread our manliness level has gone down the shitter. Enough of this!!! DR must go!!! RR is a nerd!!! TP is a crying whimp!!! Now that's more like it.
billsrcursed Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 ^Na, it's good when fans can just be fans, root for the kids, watch the team grow together. We're not getting any younger (most of us) so you might as well enjoy the good and hope the bad is temporary. Don't let it ruin your day. I'm with ya, ink.
Rox11 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 The Sabres have been my favorite since I chose a team... the only sport, the only team, that I will forever be faithful to. I live in MA so I've seen all of the Patriots tshirts worn AFTER a Super Bowl W .. and the Red Sox t's ... and the (gulp) Bruins. Hockey's all I love - I will NEVER be a homer/bandwagon fan ... Love watching the 'kids' play ... and to hear the fans cheer for hard work. At least 1 SC before I die ...
That Aud Smell Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 This thread reads like a big ol' group therapy session... good on all of you! We are all Sabres fans, and we care too much! Park Meadow! (God save the polar bears!)
dEnnis the Menace Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 This is where I am. I hate that they're so bad right now, but I still watch and hope for the best, and I've gotten to a place where the losses don't make me angry any more. The Vanek/Moulson trade helps because I feel like management has finally acknowledged they aren't anywhere near contention and are embracing the rebuild. Still not crazy about Regier and have reservations about Rolston, but right now I just want to see the kids gain experience and improve throughout the season. exactly B-)
SwampD Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1g9PFtSCKw Not a shining moment in rock and roll history. Back to the topic. I just don't like the idea of detaching my emotions when I watch. What the hell's the point of watching then? I can read a book if I want to sit quietly and be entertained. I watch sports to get fired up and release what I can't release in my real life and smash things when I get pissed. That's the cheapest therapy I know.
LTS Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 No... FNM doesn't care a lot.. These guys do:
chileanseabass Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 No... FNM doesn't care a lot.. These guys do: I never realized how much that yellow bear looks like Stafford.
nfreeman Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 I never realized how much that yellow bear looks like Stafford. Very nice.
Weave Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 I never realized how much that yellow bear looks like Stafford. I think Stafford now has a new nickname, Yellow Bear.
shrader Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 I think Stafford now has a new nickname, Yellow Bear. Come on, at least dig up the actual name of the bear.
wjag Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Come on, at least dig up the actual name of the bear. Funshine bear?
Weave Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Come on, at least dig up the actual name of the bear. Oh, I suppose. *didn't really know or care that they had names*

Rangers Ducks Sharks Kings Ducks Kings Leafs Leafs Blues Schedule means nothing to me. I'm rooting for my team but I'm not losing any sleep over W's and L's.
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Funshine bear? Funshine is a little more positive and upbeat than Garnish. All in favor????
MattPie Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 I think Stafford now has a new nickname, Yellow Bear. ######, I thought a new nickname for Staff this morning and didn't have a chance to post it: Fries. Why? Because I hope any time Darcy is talking trades with another GM, he's asking, "Do you want Stafford with that?".
apuszczalowski Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 I didn't realise you had to be all "Rainbows, Sunshine, and Kittens" to be a fan, or had to lap up the excuses from management that this is the only way for them to get better and accept a gutting of the franchise to embarassment levels to be a fan. If I wasn't a fan, I wouldn't be angry with management or the current situation the team is in. I'm angry because I am a fan and dont want to see my team as an embarrassment. I will continue to watch when I can, even went to the game and bought a Sabres tooth doll and hat for my daughter for when she gets a little older and to continue my quest to make sure she grows up a Sabres fan and not a Leafs fan like my wife is pushing for. An NHL franchise should not be the development level, I don't care about watching players "grow" into what we hope they can, if I did I would be looking to Rochester, I have the Ice Dogs here to watch if I want to watch players grow and Develop. I want to watch the Sabres compete and win games, and be in the hunt for the Stanley Cup, thats what an NHL hockey club is for.
shrader Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 Funshine bear? The answer I was hoping to get was that in honor of Drew Stafford, he was taking the lazy approach.
TrueBlueGED Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 The answer I was hoping to get was that in honor of Drew Stafford, he was taking the lazy approach. Consider it a missed opportunity in honor of every time Stafford shoots the puck.
Weave Posted October 30, 2013 Report Posted October 30, 2013 The answer I was hoping to get was that in honor of Drew Stafford, he was taking the lazy approach. D'oh!
Andrew Amerk Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 I do not belong in this thread right now.

This is the new low that DR has stooped to to save his own skin. Convince Tpegs that there is no other way but to strip it down to the bones.
