I was on the phone with my parents midway through the second quarter and went on a rant excoriating everyone and everything associated with the Bills and this season that I could. I'm sure I was quite insufferable. The end of the half TD and the second half results were all but guaranteed at that point.
For context, when I lived in the Buffalo area a friend that I used to go to Sabres games with pointed out to me that when I went off on a player to start a game they typically had a good game. I believe we were at a Tux and Pucks New Years game when Zhitnick, who had been playing horribly, had a give away and I just went off. He finished the game with 2 goals and an assist, I think, and notably he didn't put a puck in any of his teammates ear holes when they were standing in front of the net. My friend then proceeded to provide a list of other examples when that was the case.
So, you can thank my parents for taking one for the team... I'm sure it wasn't a pleasant addition to their game watching experience.
