I liked Ed. That said, if he had just disappeared and never showed up on a broadcast again, I’m not sure I would have noticed. He was like vanilla ice cream with extra vanilla.
To be honest I thought he was already let go after that last round of layoffs ESPN did

The three shades of green candy-coated dark chocolate mint M&Ms seem to have been discontinued. They were my favorite.
I didn't even know these existed. I bet they were awesome too

What does a burnt brisket, a frozen beer, and a pregnant woman have in common?

Go to a Bills game and you can witness 1000's of drinking traditions taking place all over the parking lots before kickoff

I had 3 friends go there last year, I assumed the game. They just stayed at the Elbo Room all weekend
That's not a terrible idea

Just booked for five peeps to Seattle (via Phoenix) Let me know where you are all partying pre-game!
Fans of Buffalo always hosts the huge Bills tailgates before the games

Sabres games are boring. The Bandits have captured the spirit of the city! Winning championships, regardless of the sport, does that
Only because of the product the Sabres have put on the ice for the past 13 years. Sabres games were not boring in the 90s and early 2000's

Bandits win another championship. That's back-to-back
Maybe I should go streaking through my neighborhood 🤣

I might have heard of them before your thread but my knowledge of the team and league is zilch.
That being said I did a little research on the league itself. I feel like it might have some old school sports charm in that the players are most likely doing it as a labor of love. Being what google has as the average salary for players in the league the players must all have other jobs in the offseason. Especially if they have a family.
But pro baseball and football was like that at one time way way way back as well. I think the Browns even have the numbers retired of some players that died in the off season doing other jobs.
The league isn't my thing and most likely won't ever be. That being said I never played lacrosse. And I don't dismiss the league at all.
Yeah like I said in my original post if you don't live in Buffalo I wouldn't expect you to know the Bandits especially with you being in the NYC/NJ sports market. It's a very niche league and made up of mostly smaller area teams such as Albany and Rochester but I know places like Toronto and Philly have teams too so it's not all smaller cities. Living around here you definitely know about the Bandits. When I was running errands today there were people out and about wearing Bandits gear. It's kind of a big deal today but nothing like it would be for the Bills or Sabres. Although rare I know I have seen Bandits highlights on Sportscenter before

I don't watch indoor but I've watched some college lax (Maryland) the past few years. Just saw them beat Duke today to make it to the semi's next weekend. It's a fun sport to watch even though I'm not 100% on all the rules. I think our local indoor team is relocating off Long Island, but that's a non-issue for me.
Yeah I played a little lacrosse in high school so it's not an issue of not liking or appreciating the sport of lacrosse for me but I have trouble getting any emotions tied up over the Bandits. I think a big part of being a Sports fan as an adult is the memories and feelings you associate it with childhood but I didn't pay any attention to the Bandits growing up

I recognize most of the posters on this side of the board are not currently living in WNY and they might not even know who the Bandits are LOL. For those that still live in WNY what is your interest level in the Bandits? I'm diehard when it comes to the Bills and Sabres but I just can't find myself getting into the Bandits even though they are about to play for their 2nd consecutive Championship tonight. They do have a nice niche following around here but it's nothing like it would be if the Sabres were in the playoffs right now. I believe the game is being aired live on some channel here tonight but I don't even know if I can sit through the entire game.
*For those that don't know the Bandits are the professional indoor Lacrosse team we have in Buffalo. To be fair they are the most successful professional sports franchise we have ever seen in Buffalo haha

The more I watch these playoff games the more I feel like Buffalo is still so far away
-
Saw the video and felt a bit letdown but had no idea it was supposed to be a parody of something lol. Have never watched Park and Rec before. It's probably much funnier under that context

Hoping Seattle dates are good (sept/oct)
Looking like 10/27 is a pretty safe bet. I was just talking to my buddy and he is excited because there's a good chance the Kraken might have a game that weekend

Seattle. Hoping that we can get another group seating effort going. The last game was a good crowd for the Seattle Bills backers. The pregame tailgate was super fun. The first and only time I got to meet Ezra.
I expect a big Bills fan turnout for that game. Sounds like the marquee destination trip this year

I think football was bigger but Michael Jordan was transcendent and every person in the country knew who he was.
There's no doubt Jordan was the biggest athlete in any sport in the 90s

I have a similar problem of having a huge collection of comic books that my son doesn’t want, as well as sports cards going back the the 60’s (AFL Jack Kemp), Hot Wheels/Matchbox cars, original 12” GI Joes, and my son’s large 1990’s Star Wars collection. For the comic books I’m considering going to my local comic shop that sells back issues and giving them up at a great price. The other stuff I’ll advertise on social media to sell. I just want to make sure the stuff from my childhood goes to someone who’ll appreciate them.
Sounds like some of that stuff could have some actual value. I would get the stuff appraised.

That's a Thank You gift for all the revenue she brought in last season

Half the excitement of schedule release day is planning out what Bills trips you are going to make. My group is planning on doing Seattle

Is this account actually a reliable source?
They have been right on their other leaks so far, otherwise I would not have posted. Obviously this could be wrong but I feel relatively confident
