May Day 10

Immediately, the contract makes sense for the sabres at whatever price... Tuch will be considered old soon and it would likely locking him in until he is 38. Also, when is this team supposed to compete?

Lindy Ruff was always a soft coach with soft teams. He might have been hard on his players trying to put round pegs into triangle holes building a team of all jochen hechts, but players started tuning him out decades ago. The Ottawa incident was an aberration and revises everyone's memory of Ruff (that was almost 20 years ago!). Ruff was notorious for "taking the powerplay" or "letting the league handle it". I remember things like lucic stomping a hole in Miller, and Scott Gomez getting away with purposely injuring Miller too. I remember everyone wanting him out in the early 2000s. Almost a quarter century ago, yet here he is. Ah, the life of a sabres fan.

I don't believe this build of the team is capable of ripping off that many games in a row. Extremely 1-dimensional on offense and a paper tiger on defense. If a team stops their run-game, and knows every time tecmo Joe Brady dials up the screen to Shakir, they are punting a bunch. Tampa and Houston's defenses are a big test.

excellent podcast. These guys are usually pretty even keeled and use intelligence. Basically say that the Sabres need to move on from Kevyn Adams ASAP

I get what you are saying, but I kind of disagree. For as obnoxious as it is, throughout their dynasty I never had any issues with their fans other than me being jealous and thinking they are spoiled. I think if the Jets or Dolphins were to get off the mat it would be 10x worse and they would be throwing it in our faces all over. The Patriots fans who post here are fine.

They wont. That is/was unprecedented. If this Patriots do have sticking power, they will be tough for a few years. Need to manage the maye salary bump. Then navigate through being the target. Maye has to maintain focus on his day-to-day and also stay healthy.

The local media is nothing. Sports is 98% bills. The Buffalo news has been declawed. They have it easy here

I dont entirely disagree... but time is the enemy of Allen and Lamar, but Jones is 1 year younger, Herbert 2 years? I also do not believe the Colts have staying power. I also feel like the Steelers have their own category between MVP teams on the decline and going nowhere. Its like a Tomlin zombie team who is never bad or good

Awful game last night. They were the better team but kept turning it over. A few times they were saved by replay, only to turn it over again the next play. Bizarre. There goes any hope for the MAC

I just go with Stinky and add a roman numeral after it in sequence

New England may have peaked early. They also have stayed away from injuries somehow, but now it seems they might be getting a taste. In a playoff matchup at this point, I have KC. Just experience. I think Kansas City is in real danger of missing the playoffs outright. They do not look right, especially without Pacheco who seems like he is always hurt. Chris Jones was the most important player on the team and he is either hurt or lost his drive.

Id also say it is very tough to win all the 'easy' games. That in of itself is a mark of an actually good team.

I wonder if this witch doctor they hired for strength and conditioning has anything to do with the injuries, especially all the preseason ones.

The bills should hire him just to do stuff like this.

tecmo joe cant deviate from his play chart
