    0:50 into the video you can see Spencer Brown get absolutely obliterated by a linebacker. 

     

    A humongous beast of a right tackle that gets taken out by a man much smaller.

     

    But yes, Torrence played well. I am excited about him. He is the first piece in rebuilding this o-line. We will need a new Center, RT and LT in the next year or two.

    Surprising that you pick a play where the guys plant for isn't down to say he stinks.🙄 

     

    Sincerely watch that play and see his left foot slips when engaging with the LB. I don't care how much you weigh, even a sumo wrestler ain't staying up when one foot slips.

    Martin's punts have been bad tonight.  He's been kicking to the hashes instead of the numbers, and the Squeelers have taken advantage.

    That's on purpose. They need to evaluate the special teamers. That's why all kicks have been brought out from 0-5 yards deep

    Good assessment Gunner.

     

     

    I thought Elam's tackling has been quietly improved so far this offseason if that was a knock on him.   He needs to get the hands under control though.  McD seemed visibly frustrated with the sloppiness and penalties yesterday. 

     

    Speaking of tackling.  Loved seeing how Damar was getting right into plays and making tackles with no hesitation, pretty amazing.   

     

     I want to see more Dorian Williams next week and also how well Kincaid holds up blocking in the run game or matched up in press coverage. 

     

    I don't ever want to see Kyle Allen on the field again.

    The only time I noticed Kincaid in the game was a terrible attempt at a block when lined up in line. He totally whiffed and his assignment tackled the RB in the backfield. (Can't remember when but he was on Left side of line)

    Congrats to the Bandits. Winning any championship is an accomplishment.

     

    With that being said, it is on par with the Bisons winning. I hope that they do. If they don’t, I’ll be okay. I do not like how their accomplishments sit equal to the Sabres in the arena. It just doesn’t feel right to me that Rich Kilgore sits alongside Dominik Hasek. I’m fine with a Bandits HOF in the concourse. They do not belong alongside the Sabres. I don’t believe (could be wrong) that Boston recognizes lacrosse players in the same manner as Bird, Russell and Orr. 

    Remember that lacrosse started in the Lower Ontario, WNY region as an alternative to war for indigenous peoples. It is a sport heavy in tradition in this region. While the modern versions of lacrosse have spread across New England and the collegiate space, we shouldn't forget it's history.

     

    There are some rabid fans that have been with the team since their inception.

    Way to go Bandits! I was bummed that the game was not televised nationally. I watched last weeks game on ESPN 2 and enjoyed it.  
     

    By the way, anyone dissing them for attendance, are barking up the wrong tree. They averaged almost 15,000 fans per game, for LACROSSE. Buffalo fans are incredible. 

     

    The atmosphere in the building during games is non-stop. Blasting music while game is in play, a constant moderation over the speakers starting chants (what's he got? Nothing!), the B-O-X chant, and the heavy physical play on the field usually resulting in a fight or two each game. It's just.... different.

    Fine but no one is going to remember Rich Kilgore in the same breathe as Dominik Hasek. 

    Your right, most won't. But some will. As a fan I'll always remember the 3 Kilgore brothers, Johnny T, etc. The building is shared by two franchises (the Bandits even have their own nice locker room). They deserve to have their banners up in the rafters too.

    I've forgotten...who owns the franchise again? 🤔

    I'm thinking that answer is Tom Golisano 😂

     

    But really, great win. I think that Great Dhanes MVP was incorrect. I believe Vinc was much more valuable in games 1 & 3 than he was given credit for. That first half he made fantastic saves. Additionally 4 goals is an ALL TIME LOW for a championship game! That's impressive as the shot count was 50!

  6. They did a great job of editing! At first you'd think it was a one-take, but it was very clever and creative editing. 

     

    I'm assuming all the spoken parts were post production addins, but they did a really good job of making the sounds feel correct.

     

    Still don't get the premise... And Jerry Jones is the villain?

    No Beane said they weren't going to try to trade for him tomorrow. Said they were focusing on the draft. He also basically said he isn't saying nothing will or won't happen after the draft. Just focused on the draft right now.

    The actual interview starts at 4hr:04min

     

    Beane does have a 💩 eating grin after talking about DHop and conveniently forgets his 6th round pick. He has a trade in principle with someone.

     

    My take is that it's likely that DHop is the smokescreen for something else. What it is, who knows. Just figured I'd throw this in here, because this is a thread of fun, not reality.

    April in Buffalo is the worst.  Everywhere else it's warming up, trees are in bloom, birds are singing.  I very well remember Aprils in Buffalo -- 42 degrees and clouds and rain.  And this is when players come back for their first offseason activities.  

     

    Too bad the CBA doesn't allow this part of the offseason schedule to be done in May, when Buffalo turns beautiful.  

    You unfortunately missed last week's temps. 60s-80s almost all week with sunshine. Yeah a little rain over the weekend, but really not too bad in general. They do say that April showers bring May flowers. Also back into the 70s this weekend.
