  1. John, I think this is really where we differ at out core. I know I am cherry-picking a bit, but the analytics in that 10 game win streak said the Sabres were getting extremly lucky to be in the game and force OTs, where they were 7 of 7 getting the extra point. Lets just say we take that 10 games portion of the schedule out completely..Sabres are at .43% point percentage rate..slightly, and i mean slighly better than last place Ottawa who is at .425...and that's a team that is, for the most part, trying to tank. If you gave the Sabres even a .500 record in those streak games, Sabres earning points @ a .450, 2nd worst in the league still. In the 26 games since the "streak", Sabres are earning points at .350, by FAR the worst in the league, and shows no sign of letting up. Do you really believe this roster is again the worst or second worst roster in the league? Cause that is where they have performed for 128 of the 138 games Housley has coached. I don't buy the roster is that bad, I buy the coach is not getting the most out of this team and while they provide entertainment again in the "have to watch a traffic accident" type, they are in fact almost unwatchable again the last 26 games
  2. Hmm, no games till Tuesday Duffer just said. PLenty O time for Q to come in and make a difference..Jbotts and Pegs..you owe this fan base..spend what is needed and give us some hope
  3. Rob Ray " just got outworked" worst team in the league two years in a row outside of a fluke win streak..and somehow this joke of a coach keeps his job. I am hoping that 3rd convinces JBotts a change is needed Housley may be entering Kotite territory...not sure there has ever been a worse coach Marty "wait until the third period until you get going"
  4. goal at 12.25 ya hoo, they made it past the 2.00 mark without being scored on! Rob Ray.." at least they are starting to play with a little more grit" man and Housley has a job why? so 3 minutes instead of 2
  5. man , this arena could get really ugly with a couple losses in row. Hers hoping for a good third..kinda
  6. and again a team shows the Sabres how you stick up for one another...when we will ever see that on a Buffalo team. You want to talk about culture??? How about a culture where you board #9, we drilling your dumb ass, as the Hawks are showing tonight when you hit #88
  7. Dude this is bad. I think this will put them below .350 available points..in other words, the worst team in the league outside of a fluky 10 game win streak. Losing to a bottom 3 team on home ice,against a goalie with a .888 save percentage, players obvious;y shell shocked.. I guess we go for the bottom again???? BTW.. my recording for some reason was the Chicago feed..exact words from Eddie and his partner" lot closer to a library than a hockey rink" They have to do something, this is an truly a joke now
  8. fire him tonight, this team is an absolute embarrassment for two years in a row under this guy Hutton is not good BTW..this team is shell shocked, and their coach has no answers. In my best Trading PLaces voice( if Housley is going to remain as coach)..SELL, SELL, SELL @JohnC still think they gunna stay in the race????
  9. @Foxx , thank you for posting those videos. I see the one was a Breitbart youtube..not saying accurate or not as I have to run and I have not watched, but I wanted to acknowledge the post!
  10. @Deranged Rhino ..Friday night and all, I am not gonna watch all two of this...can you summarize? No worries if not..just curious about your point
  11. crickets on this post....think this is one of the instances we are supposed to laugh at Trump and say..such a silly guy...ya can't take what he says seriously, except when he says something that his base likes, then he is to be taken seriously
  12. the point of the original post stated as fact Pelosi would not meet with these Moms who were outside of her office. Breitbart is the only outlet to report to this story, has not been verified by one other source , and he painted it as fact. I don't believe any story that only one outlet prints and not one other will verify..same as the Buzzfeed report about Trump and the Mueller stuff a few weeks back..when yall went nuts . again, not on point to the original post. There is no evidence outside of a few right-wing Twitter posts and Breitbart about this story in the OP Uhmm, yes when the editor of the paper admits to publishing "fake news" https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/breitbart-fake-news-alex-marlow/ Even if you take that little admission out...When only one outlet in any story is reporting something..especially with something as explosive as this story would be..you really think Fox opinion hosts and the such would not be all over it? Yall are scary me on this media stuff..if I have this straight Pro Trump and his agenda= True everything else is MSM and fake news Is that right? And still not one responce form the Trump supporter crowd here about Trump saying his Intel Chiefs were misquoted in a public hearing before Congress, and the reports of what they said were Fake News, and they agreed it was fake news. I may be wrong, but I have not heard one of them pop up and claim that..so who is to be believed?
  13. and I just hope Pilut's game is not wrecked by his fear of making mistakes now. Ey yi yi...
  14. breibart.breitbart again, Breitbart again, joefromamerica.com, mememerandum.com linking to the Breitbart story..yep, great sources there. Yall ain't really this gullible are you?
  15. whats lazy is reading something on Twitter or Breitbart and reporting it as fact. No one can confirm this..can you?
  16. Okay champ..show me proof of that happening..and not from Breitbart, or Federalist etc. I will show you a fact or fiction website that is nonpartisan that cannot find anything to verify this claim outside of right-wing nut job press. Now, I can 100% give you proof of Trump belittling a Vietnam POW and disgracing a Gold Star family, all the while using his Pops money and influence to fake injuries and avoid serving....want to talk douchebag???? this is how this ends..both sides claim victory on an issue neither cares all that much about..but their bases do
  17. Fred’s , I mean Huts, turn tonight. That my friend is our brilliant coach who uses all tools available to him!
  18. I have been scalping tickets since the late 70's, and lament the fact that scalping can be tough nowadays. Vast majority of the tickets are printed PDFs..ticket holder can print 10 of those. Having said that, most of the guys working the Sabres games are pros and out there every night, so not worth it for them to sell fakes..but they get duped sometimes too. If someone is also not looking to buy, and only looking to sell..stear clear unless you are there at 5:30 . I scallped the Sabre game in Carolina a few weeks back..dude had a hard ticket though. My advice, the peace of mind with StubHub is worth the fees if you gong with wife/kids etc. If going single, the guys near the arena pretty reliable, save maybe $25 on a lower bowl single
  19. I'm not angry, just smarter when it comes to hockey?( i kid, i kid) We have two different views of this team..I think there is more than enough talent to not be earning points at a .375 rate..you think that's where the talent rates. My view says the coach for two years has not gotten everything he can out of his team and players, and the sum is less than the parts..and that's on the coach. You think it has been the players. That's where our disagreements come in! I am also tired of being the team that can't improve and is consistently pointing to a "plan" for growth and be patient, even it means never getting to the playoffs.We have wasted Jacks ELC, on the way to wasting Casey ELC( 1 year left) , and feels to me we are well on the way to burning Dahlins ELC as well. . I just don't understand why a Buffalo team can never be expected to win anymore? Why is that such a bad thing to ask? One does not have to give up on the future to win now..aka the Muzzin trade.
  20. I am just busting brother...all good!!!
  21. Do you believe they went to the bottom last year on purpose? With Kane, ROR, Jack, Sam, Okposo, Risto and Scandella on the roster? I ain't buying that in the least. They wanted to win last year, but they ended up last..big difference in my mind. I believe a big part of why they ended up last was coaching. And i don't give him a pat on the back for coming up from that point..he drove em there. As we have discussed, you give the Sabres a .500 record in that win streak, they are still at same .38 win percentage of available points. To me, little to no improvement over an awful 17-18. In terms of replacing the HC, I do believe it makes a huge difference. Two teams thought to be far behind the Sabres in terms of talent are ahead of them comfortably now..both have proven, successful coaches. Sabres need to do whatever it takes to get Q in here..if they could do it now, I am all for it. Think it more likely to be in the summer, but I would sign up for that for tonights game against his old team if I could..yes I think he would be a better game coach walking off the street than Housley is. I am also one who thinks continuity is overblown. Teams have continuity when they win..shocking. Losing coaches tend to continue to lose..no matter how much time they are given
  22. that pesky news media..now they have misquoted things from a public hearing!!!!! Man, and yall want us to somehow ascertain what comes out of his mouth and discern what is real, and what is a lie. "They said they were totally misquoted and they were totally — it was taken out of context," Trump told reporters. "So what I do, I suggested you call them. They said it was fake news." https://www.politico.com/story/2019/01/31/trump-intelligence-leaders-haspel-coats-1140281 By a show of hands on here...who believes the intel chiefs were misquoted( outside of @westside)???? Who believes they said it was fake news? who believes this whole debacle is good for the safety of our country?
  23. you be preaching to the choir!! That said, I have a 5 lb chuck roast in the sous vide now, in the middle of its 48-hour bath. Sunday it will get smoked for 3hrs, topped with pickled onions and nice texas sauce, and sliders will be the best ever! Doing confit wings starting on Saturday.. https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/01/ultimate-extra-crispy-double-fried-confit-buffalo-wings.html and the party not even at my house!!!
  24. It really can , especially in large enterprise software deals. So much of that sale is understanding the structures of the customer, the politics involved, the business needs, implications to bonuses, who wants who to fail, etc ...in other words doing your freaking homework and spending eons of time on minutiae and making sure you have every base covered. Guys like me sometimes tend to think we can get by with strong compelling presentations and relationships with the right people..and sometimes we can get blindsided like a mofo!!!
