  1. I am going to do some cooking. Braised short ribs and mushroom risotto. I might not watch a second of football on Sunday. LSU-Florida and PSU-Iowa on Saturday night though.
  2. I love and hate that about his game. He has the talent to come into the zone 1 on 3 make a few slick moves and score so you do not want to completely discourage him from being aggressive but the giveaways from holding the puck or trying to do too much are maddening. I haven't noticed it as much this year. I do recall him attempting identical ill fated horizontal passes two steps over the blue line in the offensive zone which were picked off and turned the other way.
  3. Financial stress is all a product of having their entire business model disrupted. The internet and cable TV have changed how people consume news media. The decline of print media and local news has nothing to do with industry consolidation. Local news is being gutted because the advertising dollars have gone elsewhere and general fragmentation of news into specialized publications. If you want the best Sabres and Bills news you are NOT reading the local newspaper anymore.
  4. Dahlin drop pass to no one and Oloffson abandoned his man to take the puck carrier already checked by Eichel. Horrible sequence on the short handed goal. Dahlin looks much stronger and playing with a little nastiness in his game this year. I guess he wasn’t kidding about being like Risto on his off-season workout videos. Speaking of Risto he has played very well. I don’t fault him for the PP goal. He hit a stick trying to clear it and floated to Armia. I hope he’s having fun again playing in Buffalo because it would be a shame not to get anything out of an undeniably talented young defenseman. The Power play is lethal. I want to see more 5 on 5 production. Vesey- Middlestadt - ERod are a liability at best. Can we do better than Sobotka with Skinner? It’s offensive. Krueger mercifully got the band back together at the end of the 2nd and Skinner almost buried one. Hutton looks very steady. I thought he looked generally panicky last season. When he gave up one another goal wasn’t far behind. Eichel 1 on 3 and buries one, are you kidding me?!? Filthy. His shot was dialed in tonight. Tough bounce on Montreal’s third goal but why is Miller chasing his guy behind the net? The goal is scored from where he was standing. He doesn’t get the puck and he’s not in position. Miller and Dahlin were shaky. I love Girgensons effort. I hope he scores a goal again, as unlikely as that may be. Okposo too. I wish he was a faster skater. I forget Larsson is still on the team. Way to survive Larry!!. Oloffson didn’t see the ice much or at all in the 3rd until the PP. Wonder what’s up with that? Krueger doesn’t trust the rookie late in close games?
  5. That was human *****, specifically his own *****, that was collected in a napkin and used for revenge purposes. Thats a type of life hack I guess.
  6. and now you give the hygienist a little extra to rub up on @Mike in Horseheads elbow?!?!?! That the kind of practice you're running now? You're a regular Tim Whatley.
  7. I love this thread 5 times every year.
  8. First real corporate gig my boss was a real piece of work. There was always someone in her doghouse and that person was on borrowed time. Never thought it could happen to me since everything I did was magic for my first 18 months. Eventually there was no one left to blame and I was on deck. Anything I did was second guessed. All decisions were subject to a review in hindsight about why I didn't do the opposite. The micro-managing was unbearable. She made me print out draft emails before sending, then she would edit in front of me. Typically this meant tearing it up and starting fresh. Just to make sure I wasn't nuts I took her "edits" re-wrote the email verbatim in her words and gave it back to her as "my draft". She asked if I wrote the message and I confirmed it was my writing with some of her input. Shredded. She didn't recognize her own writing. It basically confirmed that anything I did was going to be wrong. Not long after, I got dismissed. From what I heard, they chased their tails for a while, replaced me with 2 or 3 people, and after destroying the department she got "promoted" out of the way and put in charge of a sales team or some such crap. At my next stop I met a woman who had previously worked for the same company. When I asked her why she left she said "Because [person] is a total [see you next Tuesday]". Ya know, one day Tito Puente is going to be dead and you're gonna say "Oh, I've been listening to his work for years!"
  9. I was 48 and half hours late for my shift at a home improvement retail store. I did not get credit for being 2 hours early for that days shift and was fired. Probably didn't help that I was horribly hungover and possibly still drunk.
  10. IF we trade for Eli, and I mean IF, wouldn't that basically eliminate our chances of receiving a high compensatory pick?!?!? Seems risky to me.
  11. That was the Bacon of Clarity himself: Booger. He played fantasy football with Cam Newton!!
  12. I think the problem was your launch angle. You got good speed coming down the ramp but you launched at maybe 15 degrees. And to make matters worse you pushed the nose down early. I think if you try it again next weekend and launch at 45 degrees and keep your chin up, you'll clear the sidewalk, hit the table right on the money, and most importantly land in the grass with total consciousness. Get right back on the horse buddy!!
  13. It was technically 11 2nd round picks, but who's counting?
  14. Picking up a street free agent does not excuse using 9 second round picks to select Zay Jones.
  15. Will the league then investigate him for domestic violence? I think they would have to per the new code of conduct, right?
  16. Possibly because Haslem was under house arrest or couldn't shake his FBI tail but they didn't interview anyone outside the organization and completely bungled the head coach hire. They basically gave Kitchens the job because he already knew his way around the facility and had a team polo and mug that says "COACH" on it.
  17. San Fran is wasting a generational long snapper in Garrison Sanborn by not giving him better blocking on the outside and its a damn shame!!
  18. How would you describe your contributions on TBD, if not trolling with heaping dose of crusading? How many vacations have you earned?
  19. True, but with hardwork and dedication you'll get there!!
  20. Why is he on meds? We're the ones who had to watch him out there.
  21. Hypothetical: If Peterman passes to Zay alone in the woods, does it get picked off before it can be dropped?
  22. Who is the new designated whipping boy? Cody Ford?
  23. Didn't we use 6 second round draft picks to move up and get Zay? Flipping for a future 5th rounder is pretty disappointing.
  24. Rayzor is really going after Torts tonight. Its been pretty amusing.
  25. The Browns were awesome until the games started. Thats when everything started to unravel.
