Brawndo Posted June 24, 2016 Report Posted June 24, 2016 From Harrington Murray: ---The GM met with Jimmy Vesey's agents Friday morning and will return to speak to their client about negotiating with the Sabres after Buffalo acquired the rights to the Hobey Baker winner on Monday. "They are going to relay the message we gave them to Jimmy," Tim Murray said. "I think we'll go there or try to get Jimmy in here and see exactly where they are." Quote

Stoner Posted June 24, 2016 Report Posted June 24, 2016 Vesey needs to move his feet. Buffalo will accept nothing less! We all take our lunch pails to work and haven't missed a day of work since the 40s, even holidays and during the blizzard of 77. The slacker routine out there will not cut it. And the father needs to get lost. Can anyone say Hodgson II? Quote
BagBoy Posted June 24, 2016 Report Posted June 24, 2016 Let's wait to plan the parades until Vesey is signed. It hasn't happened yet. Yup. In the immortal words of Harvey Keitel in Pulp Fiction.... Quote
BagBoy Posted June 24, 2016 Report Posted June 24, 2016 ^^ Things did work out well for The Wolf after that scene, and for Jules. Vincent, not so much. Quote
Thorner Posted June 24, 2016 Report Posted June 24, 2016 Ya, I was supremely confident he was ours after acquiring his rights, but then all of this "still definitely heading to Aug. 15" stuff started popping up. Which is fine, as that's well within Jimmy's rights. But while I still hope he signs, I'm not counting on him being part of our roster going forward anymore, and trying to view him more as a true free agent. He's a possibility and nothing more. Getting his rights gets us nothing but a period of time where we can have exclusive talk with a pending free agent. Murray probably sees it the same way, I doubt he counts him as a sure thing by any means. Quote

Well, Vincent was done in circumstantially by his own doing. Vincent was on the can when he got shot. Why? Heroin makes you constipated. Otherwise, he's likely locked and loaded when Butch gets home.

Otherwise, he's likely locked and loaded when Butch gets home. Yup, and now that so many people are eating opioids, there's actually a new drug to help with the resulting constipation. In Vincent's case though, he was actually locked and loaded. He was just too dumb to remember to take the gun into the john with him. Butch used Vince's locked and loaded gun to finish him off because he left in the kitchen. So getting back to opioid constipation, I read a book back in the 90's ("Homeboy" - Seth Morgan). The author talked about a guy who had been doing smack for eons (and been constipated the whole time) and I think he got busted, so his habit was cut off. So then there is this glacial effect of 20 lbs. of very densely compressed crap trying to make its way out of him. They had to operate. That means cutting his sphincter open so there would be enough room to remove the crap. The Chinese have a term for that. They call it the Yenshii Baby. Quote

beerme1 Posted June 24, 2016 Report Posted June 24, 2016 This is only slightly more complicated than determining a legal catch in the nfl. All of this quite clear I'm told. It written out in a rulebook. So just don't believe what you hear. Or read. Quote

That movie was one terrific scene after another. I will admit that QT is not for everyone. But if you appreciate his work, "Pulp Fiction" was pretty much a masterpiece. Quote

North Buffalo Posted June 24, 2016 Report Posted June 24, 2016 There is no doubt. Masterpiece.Not sure gotta say Reservoir Dogs was better imo, less muffy and dave'd Quote
qwksndmonster Posted June 24, 2016 Report Posted June 24, 2016 (edited) Reservior Dogs is an excellent movie. It's so focused and visceral. The plot is simple, straightforward, and executed to perfection. Pulp Fiction has no focused central plot. It's exclusively all the action and fallout of 3 or 4 different plots all coming to a head at once and colliding with one another. The movie manages to give the littlest possible information in about 3 hours. Everyone gets amazingly lucky at one point, and then has some sort of crazy horrifying situation inflicted on them shortly after. What a stroke of genius. What a masterpiece of a film. I think about the shot of Butch walking back to his apartment all the time. Tarantino is pure style, which turns out to be one the most (if not THE most) important aspects of film making. So. Good.

ubkev Posted June 24, 2016 Report Posted June 24, 2016 If we're talking Directed by QT, I'll have to rank Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs 1 and 1A, with a variance for my mood on that particular day. If we're talking QT written, it's True Romance all day and twice on Sunday. That movie is pure genius for 2 straight hours. Quote
qwksndmonster Posted June 24, 2016 Report Posted June 24, 2016 If only I could divorce QT's work from QT the person. What a racist, sexist in love with himself. And it definitely doesn't help that Hateful 8 was bad. By far the worst thing he's ever worked on. Quote

I saw 'The Wolf' and thought you were talking about The Wolf of Wallstreet Pulp Fiction I love Edited June 24, 2016 by WildCard Quote
