It's very bad to steal JoBu's rum. It's VERY bad. Mike P.S. Again, THANK YOU SABRES!!!

Well, as the Rolling Stones once sang, you can't always get what you want. But, Happy Birthday to me today anyway. (end LAMP) Mike

Well, we don't have hockey in Cleveland (the AHL's Barons moved to Worcester after this season, and the replacement team that the Cavaliers owner bought doesn't come in until '07-'08), but we had a heck of a ride with the LeBrons. And the Buffalo Sabres did even better. I can't wait for hockey to come back to Cleveland, even if it's only AHL. I forgot how exciting it is. Mike

Hey, it took 3 goals in the third period of Game 7, and 4 injured defensemen, to beat the Sabres. It ought to make it fairly easy, hopefully, for the Edmonton Oilers to hoist the Stanley Cup once again. GO OILERS!! AND AGAIN, THANK YOU SABRES!!!! Mike

Wow. What a year. Even with this. THANK YOU SABRES!!!!!!!! Mike

(((shaking my head))) Mike

Marv always says it's not over until triple zeros are on the clock. Mike

Pull the goalie NOW. Mike

Ouch. Coming down to 2 minutes left. Mike

OK...4:35 left, Buffalo in the power play! Mike

Calm down...still 8 minutes to go. And Max almost scored. Mike

You obviously don't live in Cleveland. And as far as the Sabres are concerned, win or lose tonight, I'm behind them. Mike

Dave, you pointed this out before I could. Anyone remember the night that LT landed on his leg, that Cathy Lee Crosby came out onto the field to see Theismann? The crowd at RFK actually BOOED her when she ran out. It was actually quite funny. I don't know if CLC and JT are still together...or if they ever got married. But, I've taken Theismann with a grain of salt ever since. Mike

I think it has to do with what apuszczalowski said...it's a prejudice against Buffalo against some of the other towns that consider themselves garden spots. If this guy is property of the Kings, it means he'd have to live in Los Angeles. As Albert Brooks was told in the movie "Defending Your Life" by a bureaucratic angel: "There is no hell. Although Los Angeles is getting close." I guess you have to weigh the high cost of living out there and the natural disasters versus good weather and bikinis year-round. Also, the last time I checked, the Kings were no great shakes as a franchise, and haven't been since Gretzky left. Mike

I sensed around early January that this team had a chance to contend...but I certainly didn't see Game 7 of the Eastern Finals coming. That's my point with this whole topic. Mike

I don't think that my beloved wife would be too happy with that. Mike

besides the mounds of $10.00 and $20.00 bills I expect from each of you tomorrow? In all seriousness...a Sabres victory tonight. LET'S GO BUFFALO!! Mike

Thank you. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you. Mike

Yeah. I thought so. Me neither. THANK YOU SABRES!! No matter what happens tomorrow night. Mike

I went back and read some of Paul's posts the week before he died...you could see that something was happening. I'm sorry that he couldn't beat this...and now, he's gone. Rest in peace, Paul. Mike

All right...LET'S GO BUFFALO!! Mike

Where's this match being played...US/Latvia? The Venezuela game was here in Cleveland...in fact, Drew Carey was doing commercials for it. I understand he's a big US Soccer fan and is looking at trying to get an MLS expansion team for Cleveland with a new stadium in the southern suburbs (Cuyahoga Falls or Northfield are possibilities). Mike

The Sabres almost certainly have to win tonight. Asking them to win Games 6 and 7 back-to-back might simply be too much to ask for. If the Sabres can pull it out tonight, chances are they will win Game 6 at home Tuesday night. I see it's 2-1 at the end of one period. Come on, Buffalo. Mike

One of my all-time favorite players, esp. when he was in college at Pitt. RIP. Mike

Yeah, and I'm at 42 and counting in Cleveland. Mike
