  1. Link??? Never mind, found it myself. http://www.am980.ca/2015/07/13/buffalo-sabres-centre-ryan-oreilly-charged-with-impaired-driving/
  2. He took a lot of money from people like Jim, Bruce and Andre. Getting his pension straightened out is key. The money bought him time to work on the depression.
  3. He didn't ask for anything. I made that decision for him and thousands of fans got behind it. In the end, a guy that was suicidal is now doing great and will be back working for the Bills. I hope you'll be able to find a bit of happiness in that because this story could just have easily had a Junior Seau-type ending.
  4. I'm going to tell you what I told a lot of people that lodged similar criticisms during the fund drive: I believe people being charitable for any cause is a good thing and one cause should ever be pitted against another. Also, many people that give to one person also open their hearts and wallets to others. To prove that point I clicked the link you provided and donated $50 to the family.
  5. I am truly happy to have represented the great posters of this board and to have had the best possible outcome - a happy, mending Darryl Talley reunited with the Buffalo Bills organization.
  6. Eichel scores at 3 on 3 scrimmage and puts the puck THROUGH the net. http://www.cbssports.com/nhl/eye-on-hockey/25239835/watch-sabres-top-pick-jack-eichel-shoots-puck-through-net
  7. Thanks, Joe. Just glad that I was able to play a small part in helping a great man get his life back together. Near the end of the fund drive I was told by a very credible media source that Kim Pegula would be reaching out to Darryl and offering him the Ambassadorship. She wanted to wait because she didn't want to step on the great gesture made by the thousands of fans that gave to the fund. That is the type of amazing ownership that we are blessed to have.
  8. Love and prayers for good health coming your way, Van. From one that borrowed your name as a show of honor and respect.
  9. "The noise the animals make while mating is often extremely startling – in fact, the sound of lovemaking tortoises was used to voice the Velociraptors in Jurassic Park." Who knew?
  10. Another nice piece on Eichel's upbringing. http://thehockeywriters.com/eichels-story-jacks-upbringing-makes-him-the-perfect-fit-for-buffalo/
  11. Interview sounded great. You acquitted yourself well. Nice job!
  12. Looking forward to tuning in. Knock it out of the park!
  13. So beautifully Canadian of you and right back 'atcha.
  14. Fair enough, Kelly. I'm not trying to roast the guy or anything, I just think he needs to tread carefully. The girl was probably drunk and swung feebly at the QB, but (in my younger days) I had my share of drunk women - some that professed to love me - who got in my face or pushed on me. I never had a problem walking away and diffusing the situation.
  15. The problem was when he said: "But they have to get some sort of consequence as well. Y'all can't keep letting females provoke guys in all ways then walk free." It implies that he thinks that it is okay to punch a woman in the face if she provokes you. It's not, it never is. The response is to walk away.
  16. Darby not helping his case to represent the Bills with class and dignity. http://www.wgrz.com/story/news/2015/07/07/bills-cornerback-under-fire-for-response-to-fsu-assault/29821723/
  17. This guy is the funniest comic you've probably never heard of.
  18. Eichel's first Sabres practice. http://www.wgr550.com/Eichel-has-his-first-practice-wearing-the-Sabres-c/21717221
  19. Paul Hamilton tweets from Today. Reinhart really impressed me. He seems so at ease this year, he does look bigger and he just sounds confident. Reinhart said he and Eichel are roommates during this camp.
  20. They married in Buffalo on July 4th http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/05/entertainment/vanessa-williams-jim-skrip-marries-feat/index.html?sr=fb7515VanessaWilliamsmarries5pStoryLink
  21. Per WGR text, Sabres sign left shooting Defensemen Carlo Colaiacovo - 1 yr - $900,000 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlo_Colaiacovo
  22. I should have listed this guy first, Terry Fox.
