Were you there when he shot his wiener off in the club? 😆 -
The NBA is brutally boring, IMO. It’s a sport that has been completely neutered in terms of defense and physicality. Like every game is an all-star game. I was a 76ers fan back in the day. I couldn’t name a single player on the roster today. Thank goodness for hockey.

This is actually humorously logical.
But while Beane has thus far been far from perfect in the early rounds, we do have to give him credit for Josh.
And I'd hate to give up 1st and 2nd round picks. When you look at a much bigger sample of all teams over the past 20 years or more (instead of just looking at Beane's picks the past few years), the probability of getting a high-quality starter is much higher in the early rounds. The Bills need more high-quality starters and fewer jags.
For every Cody Ford there is a Wyatt Teller. For every Boogie Basham there is a Matt Milano. Would you rather have one Boogie Basham or three Matt Milanos? The math seems simple to me. Step into my office.

Apologies upfront, but what "prima donnas' has Beane drafted in the 1st and 2nd round?
Allen?
Edmunds?
Oliver?
Rousseau?
Elam?
Epenesa?
Basham?
Cook?
maybe some of these picks (Oliver, Epenesa, Basham) haven't lived up to 1st or 2nd round expectations, but prima donnas, no way.
Irregardless, I could care less about a player’s character at this point. If they’re drafted in the first two rounds they better damn well be more than average rotational players. Quantity is usually better than quality in the long run.
It’s like a buddy of mine. When we used to go out chasing the ladies he would hit on every single girl in the bar. He always took one home. Now, sometimes the girl looked like Abe Vigota, but that’s beside the point. She was a starter, mabden. A real plug and play starter. You feel me?-

You're dreaming if you assume they would get "5 or 6 starters" ,certainly not IMMEDIATE starters.
But,sure,plug a lot of day 2 picks in there, consider them nominally, starters.
The odds of making a roster drop significantly for day 2 and day 3 picks.
Bills need immediate impact players. And,if you say Beane fails in the early rounds, why do you think he can draft well LATER? He either can draft ,or he cant.
This year's draft might be especially critical in light of Buffalo's cap situation.
I might consider a move down in the 1st,and don't forget the possibility of trading picks for veterans. That would ensure some value for a pick.
Is it wrong to dream? If we didn’t have dreamers in this world, Herb, we wouldn’t have things like the electric car, space travel, and crotch wigs. Give me 6-7 picks in rounds 3 through 5 all day long. Beane will find 4-5 immediate plug and play starters. Book it. -

and don't forget a couple garbanzo beans.
What’s the difference between a chick pea and a garbanzo bean?I’ve never paid extra to have a garbanzo bean on me.

It’s all about playing the odds, really. Say we could get some team’s 3rd, 4th & 5th for our 1st round pick, and then someone’s 4th, 5th & 7th for our 2nd round pick. That’s 6 picks in those middle rounds. That’s guys like Taron Johnson, Wyatt Teller, Gabe Davis and Matt Milano. I sure wouldn’t hate that. The proof is in the pudding, folks!

I hardly ever come on here and this is the first thing I clicked in. What a bizarre take. Fantastic name though, sir.
Well, name recognize name, @BIGBOY. My takes tend to be bizarre in general. I doubt I will ever make it to the bigs, but if you plant corn you tend to GET corn. Nah-mean?-

This is a flawed strategy. Of course depending on a teams board they can trade up and down.
A GM and it's scouting staff has to be able to make sound early picks. If they can't changes need to be made.
I agree Beane's track record in early rounds isn't great. But you can't just throw in the towel and concert that you are incompetent to make good early picks.
Just think of gaining 5-6 starters who are high motor, lunch pail guys. Versus two pre-madonnas that Beane totally whiffs on. I’m just connecting the dots here.-

Alright, hear me out. Brandon Beane has proven that he can’t consistently hit on 1st/2nd round picks. Let’s be honest. We are going to have a lot of holes to fill after the FA bloodbath.
Since Beane tends to hit on mid-late round prospects, let’s trade out of the 1st and 2nd round altogether. Accumulate as many 3rd-5th round picks as possible. Thanks for reading.

Not really famous I guess, but I went to HS with one of the “suitcase girls” from Deal or No Deal. I think she’s still modeling. She grew up down the street from me and I was good friends with her older brother. I saw her at a wedding in California about 10 years ago. Still absolutely gorgeous at 40.

Here’s another quick one. Buy a bag of the frozen mini meatballs. Throw some in the oven. Cut up some bell peppers, onions, garlic and mushrooms. Saute up the veggies in a little olive oil and then throw in the cooked meatballs and a couple jars of marinara. Serve over pasta. Bada bing!

When you play 11 games in 20 days (before the all-star break) you can make an argument for carrying 3 goalies (well maybe). When you play 4 games in 20 days and we're still carrying 3 goalies, not so much. They look rusty, all 3 of them.
Anderson is absolutely brutal. Comrie is almost as bad. UPL plays like a stud at times, but then will let in a few softies here and there. He flashes, but then will be terrible for a stretch. Maddeningly inconsistent.
When will Devon Levi join the club?

growing up, when it was just me and my dad for a while, we had this often, without the soup or frozen veggies. Thinking it would be better with those. I would also add some onions.
It’s a go-to “emergency meal” in my house. We always keep the ingredients on hand just in case we need to make something easy and quick on a busy night. Really, you can add anything you want to it and it’s delicious. A can of cream of mushroom soup makes a nice gravy and I usually add some chicken stock at the end to make it more saucy. Also, even the instant spuds will do in a pinch. Some real gourmet s**t!-

Hamburger Gravy brah. Ground meat cooked with a little oil in a pan. Add cream of mushroom soup, some frozen peas and carrots, and season with salt and pepper. Serve over mashed potatoes or rice.

My wife and I will be leaving the house at 4 am tomorrow morning for a 10 day Caribbean cruise.
I'll think about Nextmanup and all the thumbs down he gives me on every one of my posts. (PS, no I won't).
See ya in March.
Which islands are you hitting? Man, I really could use a Caribbean vacation right now 😞 -

I was hoping they’d look into Tyler Bertuzzi. He’s a nasty, physical LW on an expiring contract.

Uh, duhhhhh. The Bills need to hit on draft picks to sustain their current success. This is revolutionary thinking here, folks. Wow. 🤦🏾♂️

Calgary was three games off their bye. It was the Sabres first. Not everyone is at their best coming off a vacation.
I was talking to my son as we were on our way to the game. Buffalo playing an early Sat afternoon game, after a 10 game layoff, right before a 3 game west coast road trip. It didn’t feel like a recipe for a good Sabres effort. Frankly, they looked flat and disinterested. It was weird. -
What are some good, easy meals my wife can’t screw up?
