Has he really? Schoop has been saying the general points of this column on air for a couple years. He's advocated the front office choosing a clear direction and if that involved dumping Taylor so be it. I simply agree with the line of thinking that they should draft a QB high immediately, but I wouldn't be so quick to throw that rookie to the wolves when you have a very solid option on the roster.

Agreed. I just don't see this as a talented team relative to the rest of the pack. Throw in that they are underperforming as well, and I just don't see a team that will compete for a playoff spot this season. Eichel had a bad night, but he's been bringing it most nights. I agree he needs to do more to carry this squad, but I'm still more concerned with guys like Risto and McCabe. I'm more of a casual hockey fan than anything, so someone please tell me the farm system is looking bright because I'm starting to get impatient with this long rebuild.

Ha, me too. I was being pushed into early graduation, but refused with my social life in full swing and senior year of sports. Went to gym class and AP Government each week and blew off everything else. Gym was all I needed to graduate and, since class rankings weren't based off of senior year, there were absolutely no negative consequences to failing. That was my "year off" before college.

My crew did a table break when we were teenagers too, but everyone didn't have a recording device in their pocket. We all turned into fine people and our tailgate is all about food and relaxation. The circle of life. This is a more a teenager thing than a "Bills fans" thing.

What a great comeback. If they could play this way on a consistent basis they would be competitive night in and night out. I hope Kane can put the baggage behind him because the guy knows how to produce.

Can they decline power plays? This team is brutal.

He will be missed.

Still wasn't as bad as that kid from Louisville the one year. That one really grossed me out.

It's getting harder and harder to deal with commercial break after commercial break. I also hate all challenges and reviews, which slow the game down, lead to more commercial breaks, and are often screwed up by incompetent officiating anyway. I play fantasy football so I watch most prime time games, but if I didn't there is no way I'd watch. I don't even enjoy watching football anymore.

This has to show up during "Ohio, Texas, or Florida"

I'm confused, wasn't the USA the "away" team? Why was it not broadcast on a major network? I don't get beIn so I had to hunts through the Spanish language channels.

This was a "big game" last night and it was on ESPN the Ocho. Tells me all I need to know about soccer taking over baseball..,

I probably won't watch a single minute of the World Cup. My entire interest was watching the USA. I imagine I'm not unique in this regard. This must be a huge step back for their program.

My biggest problem was that after then 4th NJ goal (4-1 in the second period) they visably quit on the game. There was still plenty of time left in the game, but I saw a noticeable drop in effort in their own zone. The fans in attendance seemed to pick up on it too as the boo's started. Lack of heart this early in the season is really concerning. While I think Eichel can and needs to do more, I'd say others are having much worse starts. O'Reilly, Risto, and Sam have been simply awful. Talk to a lot of Sabres fans and you'd think Risto was an elite top pair guy, but I just don't see it. Also, while they have been completely screwed by their own teammates in front of them, our goaltenders are terrible.

This team just hands goals to their opponent.

Stop giving up shorthanded goals!

Still can't score a shootout goal....still can't save a shootout goal. Generally they weren't terrible tonight apart from Lehners soft goal.

Bar bills is my favorite weck, although I unfortunately don't get down to East Aurora too often anymore.

He is a paid employee representating an organization, as well as organizations he is a sponsor for. I hope the easy shot he took at her was worth it to him.

The point is that this is a professional atmosphere and everyone is on the clock. Customers, vendors, partners, etc....all say stupid things at times. Responding condescendingly is extremely unprofessional.

People with old fashioned attitudes are incredibly easy to leapfrog in the workplace. Keep being yourselves!

Immature and unprofessional.

I heard a clip of Tyrod on the radio yesterday admitting that the biggest difference this year is better chemistry in the third year of playing with him, as well as simply trusting him in the one on one matchups and throwing it his way. Interesting to hear. I always thought Clay was getting it done and they were not throwing his way for whatever reason.

I can't wait until they are free of this terrible contract. Also...I hate anyone with a sailor hat.

I don't follow the college game closely enough to form any opinions, but I definitely laugh when the prevailing attitude each year around draft time is that next years' class is ALWAYS better.
