The kid is going to be something special! A new golden era is about to begin in Buffalo hockey.

Just wondering if you collect anything? I have a few collections: The first is a collection of every Buffalo team pennant - it hangs in my rec room. Among the rarest are the Buffalo Breskis' professional women's softball team, the Buffalo Norsemen professional hockey team and the Buffalo Royals team tennis pennant. I also have a full collection of the 1973 Looney Tunes drinking glasses that were sold as a promotional item at the old Carrol's Restaurants (now Burger King). How about you, what do you collect?

Of course they did and that quote was the entirety of their comments on the Bills.

I really don't put much stock in preseason predictions, but this one has me scratching my head. In the insider piece on the Dolphins becoming the AFC East favorite, if Brady is suspended for any considerable time, they lauded the Dolphins as their pick - mainly due to their FA signings. This is what they said about the Bills: "The Bills last year had a bad offense and a great, underrated defense. Now that Rex Ryan is in charge, they are likely to have a bad offense and a great, properly rated defense." So, an offense that went 9-7 (and was a Bryce Brown goal line fumble away from 10-6) and added Clay, Felton, Incognito, McCoy and Harvin will be worse? Make some sense of that for me, will ya boys?

Give it a try, Charlie Cox totally redeems the character.

Finished the full season last week and just want to report to anyone considering watching that it just may be the best thing Marvel has ever put out (at least on par with Iron Man 1). Great storyline - it is really a 13-hour movie rather than 13 one-hour shorts. The character is dark and nuanced. The supporting cast is terrific. Vincent D'Onofrio reminds you of his greatness as The Kingpin. His character has a compelling back story and he plays it with just the right amount of personal pain mixed with sociopathic disconnect and violence. In the future all Marvel supervillian actors will aspire to match his performance. Oh, and the non-cut fight scenes were things of beauty. Just shows you don't need CGI to make a superhero show look good on the screen. All in all, a tour de force.

Terrific interview. Didn't realize Vince Williams is his older brother. The kid sounds incredibly grounded and truly excited to be playing in Buffalo.

More glowing words for Eichel. http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/iihf-world-championship-team-canada-usa-czech-eichel-ekblad-taylor-hall-crosby-kovalchuk-flyers/

"Future Buffalo Sabres star and Boston University scoring legend Jack Eichel set up Torey Krug and Brock Nelson for the only two USA goals of the game. Eichel was sensational for the Americans. Eichel skated 23 shifts for a combined 16:44 TOI. Watching the 18 year old dominate late twenty and early thirty somethings with his sick skills, excellent skating, man's strength tells me that he is ready to star in the NHL next season. His shovel and dish work on the Nelson goal reminded me of John Tavares and Mike Modano. Seriously, he used his wheels and long reach to strip the puck then instinctively dish it to Nelson for the goal. You can't teach reach. Nor, can you teach fire, desire, and passion. Eichel is a beast. He will be a star in Buffalo for the next decade. All Tim Murray has to do now is put a proverbial ring on Eichel's finger. In due time. Right now, he's busy proving thst he can dominate games played by NHLers and other internatonal professional players. http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog/GARTHS-CORNER/Eichel-Shines-In-USA-Lopsided-Loss-To-Belarus/6/68484

I hope TT wins the job. He can run like the wind and in his introductory interview with John Murphy he kept stressing that he has spent the past four years behind Flacco perfecting his passing and planned on wowing the coaching staff with his arm. So far, it sounds as if he's succeeding.

He had the best line ever when asked if he wished the team had squibbed kicked the ball that turned into the Music City Miracle. "Considering how things turned out, I pretty much wish we'd have done anything except what we did." Get well soon, Coach.

Thanks, Jay. I know it's probably a lot of headaches, but I know I speak for many when I say "Thank You," for taking the job on.

Well said and I second that notion!

Obviously, they're still in denial over the Bryce Brown fumble versus KC - aren't we all?

I never accused him, I just advised caution. And since when is a thread spiralling a bad thing? Best threads ever have all spiralled like a gyrograph on a tilt-a-whirl.

Thanks, fixed. Am multi-tasking and missed the typo.

Fair enough, the part that bothers me the most is that she was shot in the torso. If you're trying to murder someone and you're going to shot them up close, then aiming for the head or heart would seem to be the way it would be done. Again, I hope he is innocent, but I would proceed really cautiously.

I hate to throw cold water on this whole thing, but I think the Bills, and every other team, need to proceed slowly and with extreme caution. The facts, as I understand them, are that the girl becomes pregnant and tells Collins that the baby might be his. He ends contact with her. Then, just days before he is set to get drafted in the 1st Rd and become an overnight multimillionaire, she answers a knock on her front door and is shot multiple times in the torso. She dies and later the baby dies also. Collins has an alibi that he is an hour away at a Pelicans NBA game.Does not mean that he didn't pay to have her shot. Now Occam's Razor would suggest that the guy that would have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in child support each year for 21 years is the most likely suspect for a murder that surely seems to have targeted the unborn child. It seems quite possible that Collins is the new Rae Carruth. Now, I hope he is innocent and the police completely put him in the clear, but until that happens I can't let myself start to dream on how he may solidify our line. Agree or disagree?

Pretty amazing story of his rise from local factory worker to most respected boxing judge in the world. http://www.buffalonews.com/article/20040514/SPORTS/305149919

Caddying for his gramps, The Golden Bear himself.

Played with Rex's son at Clemson. I bet he is a sleeper that shines in camp.

Jack Nicklaus' grandson. Let's hope we see the golfing legend in Rochester in August and at the Ralph in September.
