This seems incredibly stupid. Just play the game or cancel the season.

This seems like it would be good for the city and the franchise.

This would be wonderful, the Harborcenter is perfect for something like this. It would be nice if the other teams could see how great downtown is now.
 

Maybe we won’t have people like Brad Marchand running their mouth anymore about the city. Sorry still haven’t gotten over that.

The “bubble” model for pro sports has been very successful.  Much fewer infections than MLB, for example, which operated under normal travel.

I don’t think it’s at all surprising that they (owners and players both) will try to play games if they can find a way for it to be done reasonably safely.  It is a business that they are trying to keep going after all.

So you saw the above and did nothing about it.  Not surprising.

Would be good if Buffalo ends up a hub.

Hopefully there'd be some very limited tickets available.

How nice.

As always, all you have to do is ask.

Do you have any family?

I’m never going to buy into your, “just open it up and let the stupid fat American idiots die since they were going to anyway.”

My mom is 80. She still parties harder than I do. She’s got another 15 years in her. I don’t want her to die just cuz you are inconvenienced.

Yikes, this escalated quickly.

I'm used to it, being on the unpopular side of opinion draws these kind of personal jabs. Nevermind that I have rather vast experience in pandemic medicine, it just happens to be on another continent so it doesn't matter here. I still keep posting though so I guess I ask for it.

That is a bit much eh, open it up yes, I'm not saying I don't empathize with those who may get infected, but the death rate is relatively low, and it's getting lower, at a certain point we have to quit hiding our tails. It doesn't matter, we haven't been on the same page, or even the same library since the beginning.

Maybe sometimes, but balls deep on an overnight shift as I currently am, I may be misreading, people are cray cray tonight 😬

Here's to hoping Buffalo is that Hub spot. It would be good for the exposure, at least, we all tell ourselves that every time one of these "pick Buffalo, pick Buffalo" scenarios shows up. And it seems nice, until......

Some personality shits all over the city or region in an interview or social platform comments. That's when the angry mom protecting her child syndrome kicks in, or so it seems anyways.

But still, I'd like Buffalo to be a Hub city.

We think alike. It's also why I'm a winter person. Dark from 430pm til 7am.

You know what? The Toronto Raptors might need a US base.

I was thinking the same thing.  Especially since it like like the NBA is going to start its season before Xmas.

It worked out well for the Toronto Blue Jays. One problem if it came to pass is the scheduling of the arena for the basketball team and the hockey games for numerous teams.
