  1. One of the greatest of all-time. Have to admire the moxie to name all of your sons George, as well. Must have been confusing as all get out when the phone rang and the caller asked to speak to George. RIP, Champ.
  2. Bandits in Albany tonight to take on the Firewolves at 7:30 pm. We'll see how they do on a back-to-back with cross-state travel. https://www.nll.com/game/703308834/buffalo-bandits-vs-albany-firewolves/2025-03-22/
  3. With last night’s win the first-place Bandits clinched a spot in the playoffs. Never any doubt.
  4. Things get sloppy, but Bandits close out the win 13-10.
  5. Bandits are routing the Desert Dogs and lead 11–2 at the half.
  6. The Bandits play a rare Friday night game tonight at 7:30 PM.
  7. Swen Nater, Buffalo Braves center. When I was a kid I read in the Buffalo News that he had gotten married and was wearing his wedding ring laced into his sneakers during games. I brought binoculars to the next game and clearly saw the ring from my seats in the upper reds.
  8. Admit it, you just did it and are amazed that it’s spot on.
  9. Not by strippers, but he probably has him beat in total number of illegitimate children.
  10. In a related note, Moulds also holds the all-time record for number of annual Father's Day cards received from children whose mothers were strippers. #keepyourdaughtersoffofthepole
  11. We have no 3rd rd pick. We do have a plethora of 4, 5 and 6th round picks.
  12. Directly after bringing this in for show and tell, Mark was sent to the school psychiatrist for evaluation.
  13. Will do. The overwhelming majority of games are on Saturday nights, though next week they play a rare Friday night game. Here’s the remaining regular season schedule.
  14. Bandits get revenge in Calgary as Matt Vinc stands on his head in an 11-6 victory over the Roughnecks.
  15. Happy Ides of March everyone. Keep your head on a swivel.
  16. The newest Buffalo Bills WR. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yvi13u4JSzU
  17. WNY native, Syracuse Orangeman and long-time Steeler gone too soon at 66. https://apnews.com/article/pittsburgh-steelers-nfl-wolfley-dies-55df8fbcb6b3c97a65e5ef1a84c9b96d?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0jbhM9JjZR-5l4lg22-rPk76GJdVeMZQhDsc-NZ9InbPErSA_sLpEydOY_aem_iOfpHhuuABOZS6WFrL175Q
  18. Bluesky is humming along, no issues.
  19. SpaceX unveils its newly designed rocket.
  20. Well, I guess I jinxed them because the bandits had their worst night of the season and fell to the roughnecks 17–11. On a happy note though, the Great Dhane Smith recorded his 400th goal.
  21. With the Sabres being so putrid and looking at another record year with no playoffs, I've really gotten into the Bandits over the past two seasons. I know lacrosse is a niche sport, but it has a lot of similarities to hockey. Furthermore, the Bandits are the two-time defending champs and currently in first place overall as they shoot for a three-peat. The Bandits have one of the best goalies in the history of the sport in Matt Vinc and a host of top players led by the trio of Dhane Smith, Josh Byrnes and Tehoka Nanticoke. Their coach is the league's all-time scoring leader John Tavares. One of the things that I love about indoor lacrosse is that there are distinct offensive and defensive players. Once a team gets possession of the ball there is a wholesale change of players. That way the best scorers are touching the ball on every possession. That's why guys routinely have 10+ point nights. Another cool feature is that there is one faceoff specialist. The Bandits' is Connor Farrell. He is affectionately known as the "Milkman." When the Bandits play at home, the arena is known as "Banditland." They almost always sellout, so the arena rocks with 19,000 people (unlike the Sabres, who can't fill the place unless an icon is being celebrated). The Bandits are 9-1, with a league-best plus 42 goal differential, and today at 6:30 PM they are in Calgary to play the Roughnecks. If you are in the Buffalo market the games are carried on the CW Network. Everywhere else they can be seen on the ESPN app. You need to scroll down to the lacrosse icon and then the games will appear. I thought with the season steamrolling towards the playoffs we might get a little Bandit talk going. If you haven't given the sport a shot, please consider it. It's a lot of fun and the Bandits are the one Buffalo team that actually wins championships.
