Eleven Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 I feel like Captain Tuttle just died. Quote
darksabre Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 Really, resigning is the only option for him. It's not like he can deliver the "you're fired" letter to himself. Quote
z-man Posted August 3, 2015 Author Report Posted August 3, 2015 I like Russ Brandon a little bit more now. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 Battista's departure eliminates something like 14% of this board's anticipated content for the upcoming season. What will fill the void? Quote
Samson's Flow Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 Battista's departure eliminates something like 14% of this board's anticipated content for the upcoming season. What will fill the void? Actual quality hockey discussion?!? I can't believe how quickly our whipping boys and tin foil hat leaders are falling lately. Quote

Doohicksie Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 Actual quality hockey discussion?!? Depends on how you mean that. Do you mean quality discussion of hockey, or discussion of quality hockey? The former may not be possible on this forum, but hopefully the latter is in the near term future. Quote

mphs mike Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 I wonder how many on this board get the reference. One of my favorite episodes. I feel like there is a little Capt. Tuttle in all of us. As a matter of fact, you might say that together we make up Capt. Tuttle. Quote
dudacek Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 Pegula will rue this day. RUE, I TELL YOU! Quote
Doohicksie Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 If you find our community is not meeting your intellectual standards, then by all means pursue a more mentally fulfilling activity. We will try and manage without you. It was a joke, geez. Maybe I should have inserted a sarcasm tag. To be honest, as a Buffalo ex-patriot, this where I get most of my Sabres insight. ^ C'mon, chief - I trust Egg was just funnin'. :flirt: Quote

nfreeman Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 See, some people think I'm the hard-a## around here. But when Mr. Bad Cop shows up -- ya better tread lightly. Quote
MattPie Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 Man, this is a blow to the front office. I'm not sure how the Sabres will fill the void in the areas of... ... ... of ... (???).... .... Quote
\GoBillsInDallas/ Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 Battista is probably taking this guy's place: http://www.sctimes.com/story/sports/college/2015/07/28/college-athletics-kurtz-retiring-penn-state/30803001/ Quote
That Aud Smell Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 A new manufactured conspiracy. Come on and git some! We oughta have a poll thread on the general subject areas that are in contention. I just need to think of what the front runners are. See, some people think I'm the hard-a## around here. But when Mr. Bad Cop shows up -- ya better tread lightly. :w00t: Quote
... Posted August 3, 2015 Report Posted August 3, 2015 I wonder what the rest of the staff feels like over there. It can't be fun times, right now, in the business offices, unless you're a Brandon crony. Quote
