  1. Basically quit on the Sabres during the season.  He knew things weren’t working in October but did nothing to change it.   Now in the playoffs he talks about leadership and effort on the Panthers.   He was the freaking captain, maybe if he was leading the Sabres instead of complaining about the fans things might have been different.

  2. Paraphrasing here… The whole VH “banned” brown M&M’s thing was true but there was a great reason for it.  Promoters and arenas were doing anything to book them at the time.  VH would show up and the venue didn’t have the basic requirements for their stage shows.  So they added the M&M clause in the contract.  If they showed up and there was a bowl of M&M’s (No brown ones), everything was okay.  If not, they knew the contract wasn’t followed and what they needed might not be there.

  3. I have to believe that the Sabres players are watching these games.  What’s going through their minds?  Do they think they could play at this level?  Individually?  As a team?  The entire organization is out of excuses.

  4. I read somewhere that the team is trying to make the contract incentive heavy.  Not a ton of guaranteed money.  If Tua stays healthy and plays he’ll get paid if not the team is off the hook.  Obviously Tua’s agent doesn’t want that…

  5. I’ve collected slot cars from the 60’s since I was a kid.  Mainly HO Aurora Thunderjets, but anything that I just liked when I saw it.  Even now, if I find anything at a garage sale I’ll grab it.  My kids have no interest in them.  I’m starting to thin the herd.  Keep the good stuff and sell the ordinary ones.

  6. Kinda related to the topic.  How hard would it be for the Bills PR folks to actually tag the photos of the guys coming to OTA’s or getting on a plane? Some of them I recognize but quite a few I have no clue.

  7. If a receiver the Bills like is available at 28 I hope they just take him.  Don’t move down a few spots to pick up another draft pick.  Beane and his scouts have these guys in a particular order.   Don’t overthink this, take the best receiver and get ready for day two…

  8. Top of Poke-O-Moonshine had maybe 125/150 (guessing)?  When I signed out on the trail register I counted how many had signed in after us and got 82 hikers.  But not everyone registers and there are two trailheads, so I only saw the one book.

  9. Perfect conditions up in the Adirondacks today!  Was up on Poke-O-Moonshine in the NE part of the park.  The show was amazing.  Unfortunately the ride home took forever.  What’s usually under two hours took a little over six.  Solid traffic the entire time.  I would bet today set a record for the most people in the park ever.  And they all left at the same time.  Even with the traffic mess it was a great day.

  10. Some friends and I are renting a condo this weekend in Lake Placid.  Monday morning after breakfast and checking out we’re climbing Poke-O-Moonshine (smaller mountain in the northern ADK).  Should be right in the middle of the band.  Hoping for clear skies 🤞.

  11. I can’t say that he didn’t need to get moved because I think it will be better for the team in the long run.  But I do think he did appreciate the fans.  As crazy as that stadium gets and as well as we travel, the players get it.  Any problems he had were inside the building, whether coaches or players we’ll never know.  The guy wants to win but eventually he wears out his welcome.

  12. Hey mods!   Got a suggestion for you. Would it be possible to have 13 seconds automatically inserted into every topic on the board?  Think about all of the time and keystrokes it would save!

     

    Concerning Diggs,  I’m kinda glad he’s moving on.  First couple of years here he was great.  Last couple of years from a fan’s perspective he seemed to be a distraction.  As long as we’ve got 17, we’re in every game.  I’m looking forward to the season.   Go Bills!

  13. I know folks are clamoring for WR in the first round but if there’s a plug and play center available to protect Josh for the next 5-10 years you need to get him.  Morse was really good but he got pushed around too often.  If they knew they weren’t keeping Morse I don’t understand why they traded Bates unless they really thought he couldn’t do the job.
