Excellent.

Smell's got some 'splainin' to do.

Hey - you gotta tag me on stuff like that.

There's been a lot of improvement on several fronts. I've noticed a few swings and misses here and there, but, on balance, PSE seems to be moving in a more modern direction.

I see that Josh Allen story was posted here. I recall it being previously posted and discussed elsewhere. I won't repeat my thoughts on the subject.

It is... it's just so awesome.

I agree...Josh is just such a good person, it's not surprising to see why even the vets had no issues following him when he got here.

maybe falling laterally but still, certainly not falling downward.

Given the terms generally provided by local network affiliates (compensation, hours), and those paid by private entertainment conglomerates (samewise), I’m thinking this is downward-ish.

Didn’t the Sabres use Jump Around as a win song for a while?

Did they? I don't remember that at all. I love that song, they should go back to it.

I always chuckled at How You Like Me Now? the few times they played it early in 2010-11 when the Sabres started heating up after a slow start.

@josie your thoughts on this? Specifically I was thinking why the hell didn't they use the same gold for the 5k part that they are using everywhere else for everything else. 

 

 

Dude I have no idea. 

I'm kinda flabbergasted with the whole latest design choice. Those jobs are the "big jobs", the kind of dream job a shmuck like me could only ever hope to land and never will. It's supposed to be the tightest ship, the leading edge of consistency, creativity, style, and execution. They've got the money and ostensibly the support to do great things.

And it's just all over the place. We went from Chipotle Cup Chic scribble writing to marble trophy plate vaporwave marble Salvatore's a e s t h e t i c but only half have those gilded pants on. 

 

Screw the whole royal blue discussion, wtf is up with butter yellow and metallic gold and thick sports fonts and narrow serif all caps typefaces? Is it all going to come together? Is it just a total mishmash of trial by committee? Is it a complete cult of personality up there?

It's just not good.

 

In my opinion, go retro. Everyone wants it. It's good design. You have one of the most beautiful designs in athletics sitting in your stable and you're ignoring it entirely. You want money? Nostalgia bucks? Cash in on that. The market is ripe to bursting for it. 

 

This ain't it, chiefs.

It's probably just a bunch of people who were born here, grew up here, never left, and only hire people just like them so they can such each other's ***** about how talented and creative they are.

I'd also add that for me visually, the gold plates aren't anchored properly to the image next to them. If you put the gold plates next to that shield they should line up properly as opposed to the top plate being slightly below the shield (look at the silver line coming across and the top of the gold plate) and the bottom plate being slightly above but not to the same extent as the top plate. It lacks balance. 

100% agree with you and enjoy your artistic/graphic design thoughts on this mess.
