  1. Golf? ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜
  2. The 'green death' name was apparently first used by New Englanders to describe Heffenreffer beer, but the name was happily coopted by WNYers to describe Genesee's ale...and its effect on drinkers. * During a few strikes in the seventies and eighties, Brewers Retail (now the Beer Store) closed, and LCBOs were allowed to import large amounts of cheap beer from the U.S. In the Niagara Peninsula, we seemed to get a lot of Blatz beer, which my brother described as the beer named after the sounds made the following morning after drinking it.
  3. I think referencing Genesee Cream Ale, aka 'the green death'. Before Labatt became ubiquitous in WNY, Genesee was the frugal beer of choice.
  4. Takes a bit of perseverance on the viewer's part, but you'll get to the definitive pronunciation. ๐Ÿ˜
  5. Is he sending signals? Or trying to keep warm? ๐Ÿค”
  6. He must have ice water in his veins...he wishes it was colder. ๐Ÿค” * This reminds of when Joannie Cunningham dreamed that Potsie was her boyfriend, and was a real man's man. ๐Ÿ˜
  7. Oops. Sorry. Thought it was a Sabres thread.
  8. Oh, just relating an interesting coincidence from yesterday. Cycling through AM radio in the car, turn on WGR for the first time in three weeks. Mike Schopp talking about Lamar. ๐Ÿ™„ I turn radio off. ๐Ÿ˜‘
  9. "Yeah?! Well, I took lessons from Lamar's mother!" Yours truly, Asante Samuel Sr.
  10. I read the thread title, and figured that it was misfiled from PP&P. * According to the PR flak, defense is hungry. On offense, "everybody eats". Better not let Lunch Lady Gettleman catch wind of this. Training table meals are costly, and must be rigidly policed. ๐Ÿคจ
  11. Miller High Life or Miller Genuine Draft? ๐Ÿค” And is the Hasek a pilsner?
  12. Dear Terry, Brandon, and Sean, Thank you again, KC has agreed to sign me. Thanks for Billieving in me. Yours truly and sign it, Chase Claypool
  13. All your base and training camp passes are belong to us. ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ
  14. I cannot take credit for it. That particular picture has been kicking around the internet for at least a couple of years. I haven't searched too deeply, but I don't know of any photoshopped pictures of referees in any other team colours than KC. Coincidence? I doubt it. ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿคจ
  15. A couple of hypothetical responses / reactions from Mr. Wilson: "Third uniform?! Do they think I am made of money? Fine, but players are responsible for washing them." "FLY?! There's no reason we can't rent a couple of Cottrell's school buses for Cleveland, Pittsburgh, the New Jersey teams, and Philly. Check the train schedules for Boston." We greatly exaggerate his thriftiness for a laugh. How many of the clowns owning teams now would you trust with the Bills?
  16. Final: Giants 2 Jets 0 Schoen and Daboll accept the Lombardi Trophy, are called into Giants front office the next day and are fired. Jets GM Mougey and HC Glenn are given multiple year guaranteed extensions to their contracts, and set records for their compensation packages. Yay Woody!
  17. Fascinating. The resemblance is most uncanny. ๐Ÿ––๐Ÿฝ
  18. Some guys will do anything to get away from 'Lunch Lady Gettleman'. * If it was the Bills he was going to, Beane would already be drawing up the extension...๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ˜
  19. Deer zir, Did day men-shun me by name?! Yurz droo-lee, Mar-DEE BOO-rahn
  20. The NHL is just softening us up with this show of bush league management, in preparation for awarding one of the new franchises to Atlanta. ๐Ÿ˜
  21. Gugny seems slow to note the annual happiness of 'Bobby Bonilla Day', so I will just mention it here. ๐Ÿ˜ * https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/45590991/bobby-bonilla-day-2025-new-york-mets-pay-million-every-july-1
  22. Brown goes to a creative writing workshop for a week, to come up with pithy phrases to use during broadcasts. ๐Ÿ˜
  23. Hats off to the regional OTBs for finding cushy directors positions, once a politician has worn out their welcome with the public. ๐Ÿคจ
  24. It's almost a shame that Tammy Faye Bakker went on to her eternal reward a few years back. Her tearful entreaties on behalf of the good people of Atlanta might just have brought a well deserved third NHL franchise to the city. ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿคจ
