Zamboni Man

For the most part I like no touch icing, however it does suck when there are two guys inside the blueline racing for the puck and they blow it dead anyways. I'd like if they called no touch icing unless there is an actual chance for a play on the puck. Brining back the tag up offsides rule would be great.

LMAO @ Ken Anderson I wouldn't mind seeing the Bengals dig up David Klingler from somewhere.

DILLIGAF about which QB is playing, as long as TKO and the rest of the Demolition Company shows up and plays as good as they have lately, I'll be happy. Make it Carson "I'm about as tough as Robert" Palmer and Jon "Gonna need a first aid" Kitna, I don't care, bring them both on.

That's pretty much the going rate for a player in the ECHL or UHL, and there's some pretty good hockey for the ticket prices at that level.

What I like about McGahee the most is that the guy can actually pick up the blitz. Hasn't everybody who's had a similar injury to McGahee said that it takes at least 3 years to get back to 100%? I'd venture to say that McGahee's injury was by the far the worst knee injury I've seen somebody come back from. With that injury, defenses stacking 8 in the box and blitzing to try and shut down Bledsoe, I'm impressed enough to leave him as our #1 horse in the backfield because of the level of play he's brought to the table this season.

Hockey used to be more popular than basketball and was the 3rd biggest sport in the US. That was prior to Bettman, his instigator rule, over expansion and of course the start of the worst officiating in professional sports, outside of professional wrestling. The Sabres did sell out all their games for a long time back in the 70's thanks to the French Connection and tough guys like Korab and Schoenfeld. It takes a mix of both offense and toughness to sell tickets imo. People buy tickets for hockey games to see those two things as far as I know. The biggest problem with hockey is that it doesn't look nearly as good on tv as it does in person.

I don't think that totally outlawing fighting would be a good thing, hockey was in it's prime back in the late 70's, early 80's. It was b/c of the perfect combination of scoring, open play and a few fights mixed in there. Think about it, how many old time Sabres fans have a favorite memory of Jim Schoenfeld putting Wayne Cashman through the zamboni entrance @ the Aud and pummelling him on the concrete? Call the rules they have on the books, ditch the stupid instigator rule and you will see cheap shots disappear. Nobody has to worry about reprecussions for a cheap shot b/c the enforcers who used to take care of stuff like that have their hands tied with the threat of suspension for starting a fight. Other than that I'd like to see those rules put in place, especially down sizing the equipment, and if they don't downsize the goalie equipment, get rid of the regulation on the curve of a stickblade and make the net a little bigger.

Maybe Takeo could get a commercial like Holyfield and Charlie Steiner did.

Well he was in that band Damn Yankees for a little while....

Cocaine's a helluva drug...

I got this from a friend of mine...the Madden 2006 Cover Madden 2006 Cover Leaked...

It was 35 this morning when I was on campus...the chicks were dressed for a trip to the artic circle. The cold doesn't bother me nearly as much as all the layers girls wear this time of year.

Not sure on those two, but I heard Andy Van Slyke is available.

As compared to who? Just imagine the kinda stats Bruce and Hansen would've put up if they had a Pat Williams or a Sam Adams playing that nose tackle spot in place of Jeff Wright. I wouldn't say any of those 3 players were "great".

Not too shabby

Weren't the 49ers in Buffalo before they were in San Francisco?

LB Gabe Northern.....he did have a few big special teams plays that one season.

I think he played int he late 80's/early 90's and I know he had a brief stint with the Sabres, "Red light" Rob Stauber

And for my 1,000 post, Mickey Washington, Gale Gilbert, Butch Rolle

I'm not sure about a surgery where they shoot lasers into my eyes, but when they come up with the surgery that will let me shoot lasers out of my eyes sign me up. B)

Here's a link where you can watch the commercial, I think the face on the "Burger King" is actually kinda funny. Burger King Commercial...

Or maybe a bench Thurman, he's no Jaimie Mueller post?

Denis Leary is hilarious!

My Grandma lives on New Oregon Rd. out that way.

Here ya go Stoj.... USSR Flag... And Space Pen
