So there's that That, along with Mike Schopp's incoherent rambling. I'd take Sal C. any day over those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 (edited) Sal is funny... If you feel good about the team you love him but if you're mad at the team he will drive you insane. You know Schopp probably banged in sick for the post-game the minute Josh Allen threw that long TD pass to Foster to take the lead and Rosen got sacked for the 11th time and threw his 5th pick (slight hyperbole) and went to the bench. If Josh Allen threw a pick to lose the game Schopp would have come in with strep throat and a 102 degree fever to rip the kid to shreds on the air. He still can't get over Cleveland's backup QB not being here as the starter. Edited December 17, 2018 by TheFunPolice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it's different for us out of town fans who aren't from Buffalo originally, but again, I do get the "why" part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I mean the Sabres have the potential to be a "worst to first" story of the league. Most of the time the Bills dominate the local sports coverage, but IMO the Bills have to step aside a bit here while the Sabres do their thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can definitely appreciate where you're coming from with that...and I am now much more aware of Skinner, Eichel et al than ever before which is fine too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was listening to that, and the caller was totally off base IMO. It seems a lot of fans want to go all tribal on Schopp and the Bulldog for not being homers like Murph & Tasker. My theory is Schopp has an issue with Black QB's now that he's adopted two black children, he goes out of his way to call racism when guys like Taylor are shown the door or guys like Jackson are not selected in lieu of a white player. Still, Bulldog's criticisms of Allen have been on par this season IMO. Edited December 17, 2018 by WhyteDwarf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clemfield2622 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 I think Sal is good at what he does, but he is a homer. It's funny listening to him and Jeremy talk in the mornings because you know they're friends, but absolutely disagree about what is important in building a team. Sal is like many of you, he thinks all wins matter, and would just generally feel good after a win. Jeremy on the other hand understands that there is no such thing as momentum carrying over from season to season and that good players make a team good, not clapping and prayers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may sound petty, but I think it's his voice that I find grating--always sounds like he just finished wolfing down Thanksgiving dinner for some reason--that sounds mean but I don't know how else to describe it . In terms of overall content for that time slot, I feel like I get better analysis on these boards half the time, but that's just me. 6 minutes ago, Clemfield2622 said: I think Sal is good at what he does, but he is a homer.

TheFunPolice Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 I don't mind Bulldog. I think he lost his mind on the caller yesterday because he is probably frustrated at being tied to Schopp, who is by far more negative and dominates their show when he is on. So the "you guys rip on Allen" bit probably drives him nuts, since it's mostly Schopp, who has a hang up about Cleveland's backup QB that he cannot shake. Plus, some of the guys on WGR were so negative about Allen that they want to be justified, so they are sort of trapped. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that yesterday and Bulldog quickly backpedaled and didn’t even give the caller a chance after the caller pointed out to him twice about how bad Schopp & Bulldog bash Allen.

Those players on those teams basically hated each other. They were a tremendous team because they had several elite talents. Would clapping and praying have won them the SB?
