Buffalo Super Fan Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 The Buffalo Bandits can be NLL World Champions in three days is anyone awake on this message board? Does anyone care? By no topic on this message board unfortunately it looks like the answer is no. As a Buffalo sports fan for 49 years and counting this is what it’s all about. Not chasing some fantasyland free agents, tailgating parking lots, goofy PSL’s or tanking but winning championships for Buffalo. Three days the Buffalo Bandits can bring home championship number five one for the thumb for our Buffalo Bandits fans which is what it’s all about Buffalo winning championships in sports being the best in my opinion. Go Bandits! Let’s Go Buffalo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Einstein Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 On 5/26/2023 at 7:00 PM, I am leaving for good said: The Buffalo Bandits can be NLL World Champions in three days… Does anyone care? Can’t speak for others, but no, I don’t care at all. I’ve never been able to get into minor league sports. Just knowing that they are the “not good enough” players ruins it for me. Edit: oh wait, the Bandits are lacrosse? I got them mixed up with the Bisons. That’s even worse lol. Lacrosse is on the same level as high-school curling, in my book.

I’m not sure what it says about someone who “doesn’t care” enough to specifically and intentionally enter an OTW thread with a clear topic said person “doesn’t care” about so that said person can take a dump on said topic. Anybody have a good description of such a person? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the Bandits close it out on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Held onto a narrow lead after a second half run of goals. It's a great sport. Indoor lacrosse is basically "the Purge" of sports. I have no idea what constitutes a penalty because you can do pretty much anything to an opponent with your stick. Bandits also were up 1-0 last year and lost the last two to this same Colorado team. But this year game 3 is back in Buffalo. We barely beat the Mammoth last night. Edited May 28, 2023 by PromoTheRobot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the game, though turned off a few times because the Mammoth would score every time I put the game on and I am superstitious. I am the same way with the Bills and Sabres, so cannot help the irrationality. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Colorado was the better team today for sure. And from the eye test, i thought they were slightly better in game 1 as well. I think the Bandits were fortunate to hang on for the W. Be nice for any Buffalo team to win a Championship. Just need one solid game from these guys on Saturday.

Yes unfortunately not good enough but that unfortunately is par for the course for PSE sport’s production horrible owners. I hope I am wrong but I don’t see PSE ever winning anything with there Buffalo and Rochester sports teams ever. It’s like there is a permanent storm cloud over this entire corporation it’s always going to be something because there incompetent bumbling owners it’s really sad. The Buffalo fans deserve better than PSE. I don’t see the Buffalo Bandits winning this Saturday night against the Colorado Mammoth there toast along with the Rochester Americans against the Hershey Bears sell the Buffalo Sabres PSE in my opinion.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Bandits offense is just not the same without Josh Byrne. You could tell Colorado was sliding early to Dhane Smith and Cloutier. Tahoka not getting his typical wide open looks at GLE. Tavares is going to have to mix in some new looks on offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
