Once again, a pivotal moment in this history of the franchise... what could have been, much like Bill Polian. That's why I talked about it and how devastating the Murray era was... Pegula was supposed to be a hockey guy #1 and look at what happened.

It established a pattern of mismanagement that alienated one of the biggest stars we've ever had as a franchise. How is that not extremely important?

If he gets hurt again, he's done, and where does that leave us if he wants to come back again instead of retire? I'm all for caution and am not a Chicken Little, but I'm sick and tired of the positive BS spun over injuries only to find out it was all a mirage and additional weeks are needed for healing. We have way too much money invested in a player that hasn't made a significant impact when it counts, and I am so hoping that this is all worth it in the end....

THANK YOU for at least acknowledging that we have major issues and being "the best hockey market in the country" isn't cutting it right now. The row with Pat is what I think essentially took our franchise and royally screwed up the organization is what I was getting at. It took what could have been just a small playoff drought and made it into an extremely long one. The damage that was done that day is still not acknowledged enough and it shows how badly Pegula has botched things with the Sabres. Had he chosen to back Pat we would have probably been in a much stronger position to rebuild properly. Pegula still has not healed that rift and that REALLY bothers me... I am hoping he does sell the team and the Sabres stay and win the Cup or show they can return to the playoffs regularly.

Did they make the playoffs in the last two years? The Buffalo Sabres last made the playoffs in 2011!!!!!! In 2014 after Tim Murray came in and began wrecking the franchise, LaFontaine left the Sabres. How is that so difficult to understand???? https://www.buffalohockeybeat.com/stunner-pat-lafontaine-resigns-from-sabres/ I can tell you didn't fully read my post.

What good is being the best hockey market in the country if you never win anything??? They can't even make the playoffs in the NHL, and that in itself is embarrassing. This team hasn't been the same since they drove off Patty LaFontaine and it drives me nuts.

We should keep him because I think that McDermott will be out eventually and I think that Elam is being underutilized. I have little faith in the coaching staff right now, and I think we have issues that could lead to a disappointing season. Leslie Frazier was made a scapegoat and this negativity towards Elam from the staff seems contrived. TOTALLY agree.... we are on the precipice of a hard fall if we just let a guy like Elam go.

It happened HERE in my area of OH/PA just this past week!!!! https://www.wkbn.com/news/local-news/investigators-focus-on-possible-house-explosion-cause/

UVA has NEVER been good in college football, though... their history is abysmal, like the Gamecocks. They don't have a much biggest television market than Blacksburg... check it out, it's true.

I must assume that there is a plan by Beane to fix this issue, but if they don't come up with something soon to protect Josh and keep him from becoming Cam Newton 2.0, then I'm afraid for McD and eventually Beane it will be....

UVA is a crap school for football... you'd think they would want UNC and Virginia Tech. UVA to the SEC would be a dumb move.

Well, you're wrong, so enjoy swimming in your wrongness. Depends on whether or not O'Cyrus is ready for the league or not... it's a wait and see, but so far I don't get their plans with respect to the OL.

By your logic, only "arm/shoulder/collar bone" count, but that's ridiculous! How many times has Rodgers played through injuries and hurt his team? Why is it that Rodgers, who doesn't put his body on the line NEARLY as much as Josh, have so many more injuries? You're being disingenuous. https://www.draftsharks.com/fantasy/injury-history/aaron-rodgers/2636 https://www.draftsharks.com/fantasy/injury-history/josh-allen/9962

I said this on Monday and LO AND BEHOLD Saleh on Hard Knocks was PISSED OFF at his O line and now everyone is freaking out a day after being so pumped in getting Cook. WAIT AND SEE.

One of the sailors I served with got nailed in San Diego and he was wearing full protective gear and was seriously injured... most of the time those others end up dead and I am sad to see nobody will do anything about it here. It is also legal to operate motor vehicles without any doors, so stupidity abounds.

Hence the word "SUPPOSEDLY", Squidward.

This is like having a Ferrari with the best tires and no brake pads... we're just waiting for the inevitable Rodgers IR report. They are literally refusing to upgrade their offensive line for a 40 year old QB who is used to having a Top 3 OL in the NFL!!!! You're obviously denying that.

ALSO here in Ohio most people on motorcycles don't wear full helmets or other protective gear, thinking that they are invincible... I just don't get it,

Yeah, they will definitely finish last in the division once A-Rod is put on IR. The Jets O line is something that A-Rod is NOT familiar with dealing with. It's a severe downgrade that will end up costing the Jets BIG TIME.

Maybe he FINALLY found out he was never adopted (maybe when he was married), and then after further investigation, found out that he never was legally adopted and he had been lied to about a LOT of things?!! Betrayal cuts deep, but thinking this is a money grab is utterly ridiculous. He was tricked into signing papers thinking they were adoption papers... that's why. He agreed to it in writing supposedly. Evidently in Utah taking people's money or land is just being smart and proactive.

No not the internet age, it's when things got crazy... so much more tension and society just tightened up, just a constant bad vibe after 9/11. I was "online" way back in 1991 in college when it was called a server before the World Wide Web went mainstream where newsgroups and bulletin boards ruled. It was a novelty then for nerds and colleges/universities!

If only I could have told my young self to enjoy the good times when I had them... it seems like life got to be ridiculous after 9/11. I'd trade all of this internet and cell phones and cable and streaming for those days!

You'd THINK that someone with 18,800+ posts here would be smarter than to bring politics into a college football forum, but here we are.

The Providence Steamrollers.... it's a very entertaining read despite the whining about Prohibition.

I would watch Cowherd 100 out of 100 times rather than the incessant Jets love fest on Get Up or First Take every day.
