In my opinion, walking away from a proven market in a league which has had a rocky road to 32 teams would be an incredible mistake. A few years ago the Florida Panthers were at serious risk of a relocation. Seems like ancient history 2 cup wins later. A few franchises remain on shaky ground and several others are far too early into their relocations/expansions to call successes at this point.

NYC Bills Backers moved on from McFadden's a few years ago. Penn 6 is the current Bills Backers bar in Manhattan I believe.

And there just so happened to be a camera crew too?!?!... idk man, i beginning to think this was staged. Men don't notice anything

The annual trip up for the home opener Going to the Bills bar every sunday to hang out with the usuals Getting black out drunk and rewatching the 12 minute condensed game on mondays Making a run at the title

Just once, ONCE, it would be refreshing to see an insincere thank you thread. One dripping with sarcasm and spite. Is that too much to ask?

There will not be enough time to shine the troughs. We're going to be pissing on some rough cut metal. The splashback COULD be noticeable. Emphasis on the COULD. Can't stress that enough.

Fair enough. I like JJ but his contract was one that I was scared of. I love his speed, he has a nice shot, but I don't think his game is well rounded enough to commit to him long term for that kind of money. Norris was a trade. We are paying Norris "too much" because we gave a bad contract to Cozens.

Would you have paid JJP $7.7M per year? On the other hand.....the last time we gave a long term contract to a guy who just had a never to be sniffed again shooting % we wound up regretting that hard.

"Soccer is the most popular game in the world. According to data from the International Soccer Federation, the MLS is projected to over take Major League Baseball and NASCAR as the most popular sports league in the United States by 2010." - Sports Illustrated July 1996 Edition

50% of the NHL makes the playoffs every year.

After the Whistle reported today that hes not demanding a trade. He wants first line minutes and to be on PP #1 and he doesnt want to be just another guy on a new team. Sounds like hes sticking around but he's pissed that the team is a dumpster fire and he is a lot more outspoken than the quiet kid we drafted. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/seneca-side-note-vol-66-too-much-talking/id1590573108?i=1000714295627

Sabres are tied with the Jets for longest active playoff drought. Sabres playoff drought is the longest in NHL history. The Browns have been to the post season twice in the past 5 years.

And Terry is on record saying he would not give McBeane as much power as he did if he had the decision again today. Which is terrifying.

This is a hockey board. A conference finals, playoffs, and a championship means nothing when ARE Sabres remain the laughing stock of North American professional sports.

We are 8 days away from crushing some kids dream of playing in the Cup finals.

Of course there more outlets around the globe but Americans were primarily getting their news from Brokaw, Rather, Jennings, and their local paper. Unless you were trading copies of the Turner Diaries with the local militia, you were unlikely to come across the kind of "news" our pals in PPP trade in.

I don't know if I have a single post in that rats nest. You have 800 posts in that thread because you are a raving lunatic with a crappy memory.

My derisive brand of both sides bad is glaringly short on answers.

A resounding vote of confidence in the incoming HC and new roster.

I think the worst part is that our reality is shaped based on where we fall in the political spectrum. 30 years ago there were like 5 outlets for news and they were all basically the same. We could largely agree on some basic "facts" or "truths" even when they were wrong. Now we have algorithm dictated infotainment delivering a 24/7 feed of confirmation bias. Whatever you engage with the longest is the truth. Whether its deep fakes, rage bait, conspiracy theories, outright fabrications, mainstream fluff, it doesn't matter. Whatever keeps your eyeballs on the screen the longest determines what "news" you get and therefor your reality. If the news tells you the earth is round and that doesn't tickle your fancy, keep scrolling and you'll have no problem finding a community of flat earthers that will take you in. You are never alone no matter how far off the reservation you have wandered. Every viewpoint is now equal. All "facts" are equal. Very few people question their feed when its reinforcing their world view. Its increasingly difficult to find common ground and I don't see that getting better. Our political discourse is increasingly shaped by the raging debate between the lunatic fringes on either side. And now they have their own social media platforms. Which echo chamber do you prefer: every piece of art made in the past 1,000 years is a misogynistic, racist, transphobic microgression giving bad vibes OR 10 million Guatemalans have attacked the Lincoln Memorial and are eating dogs? Here's my conspiracy theory: Social media is the greatest psy op in recorded history. Soviet level cynicism incoming.

They can point their nukes wherever they like, assuming they have one for this hypothetical. Just like Nathan Peterman could line up to throw the deep out route. Getting the package to the intended target is a completely different matter. An Iranian nuke pointed at the United States might hit Santorini? It sure as hell isn't landing anywhere close to an American territory. They have a long way to go with missile tech by all reports. The racists certainly do.

They need to get tougher on trans rights. The American people have spoken and they demand to know where the Dems sit on trans rights! Sadly, this is likely an actual conversation happening at the DNC. Dems learned nothing over the last 8 years. If they had a candidate who would focus on jobs, prosperity, and boosting the standard of living for working class Americans they just might never lose again. Instead they're baited into debates on fringe social issues. They're more concerned about winning the supposed moral high ground than they are with winning elections and as a result they're broadly viewed as arrogant, humorless, and preachy. I think Trump and MAGA is more a repudiation of both political parties and our ruling elite. He promised to burn everything down. Ironically, the rejection of our political elitism is embodied by a rich Manhattan socialite who LARPs as a self made man but here we are. Trump's self aggrandizing travels too. Latinos and Black voters love the machismo, the under educated love the complete lack of decorum and decency. Trump is flame to the moth for everyone who has been cast aside as dumb, trashy, hairbrained, and generally undesirable. He brought them all in under the tent. He platformed their basest opinions and assured them they weren't alone.

Congrats to the Panthers on a well deserved Stanley Cup win, but their celebration appears to be orders of magnitude smaller than the crowd that gathers at the same venue for every Bills away game in Miami. I saw a report that the Bandits game aired on CW had more local viewers in Buffalo than the Panthers cup finals had in Miami. Its criminal that we do not have a competent hockey team in such a rabid market.
