  1. 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.
  2. 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..,
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. This team just hands goals to their opponent.
  6. Stop giving up shorthanded goals!
  7. 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.
  8. Bar bills is my favorite weck, although I unfortunately don't get down to East Aurora too often anymore.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. People with old fashioned attitudes are incredibly easy to leapfrog in the workplace. Keep being yourselves!
  12. 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.
  13. I can't wait until they are free of this terrible contract. Also...I hate anyone with a sailor hat.
  14. 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.
  15. The gun culture has been ingrained for a couple hundred years, it won't easily be undone. If you abolished the second Ammendment today (laughable to even think of) there would be a tremendous amount of pain in the near term. You can use your imagination on that. I would argue once you get a couple generations in you'd start to see progress, but everyone is living for today. You would still have the criminally insane to deal with, it would just take a different form. The way I figure, everything has a tax. You want freedom to bear firearms? Well situations like Vegas is the tax you pay. We'd pay a different one if that right was abolished. The price we pay for our firearm culture isn't worth it to me, but I'm one person with one set of experiences. Firearms have saved families too, so it's complicated.
  16. Despite some statistical inaccuracies, the Buffalo is getting better narrative is superior to the Buffalo still sucks narrative. You're not going to find a lot of supporters considering your delivery.
  17. I was there too, absolutely horrible. To be fair, as soon as they broke that 80 yard TD run at the beginning of the game I turned to my buddy and said "ohh we are going to get THAT Bills team today." I don't think EJ had even seen the field yet.
  18. Haven't seen it yet, but apart from The Wrestler, I've always been underwhelmed by Aronofsky's movies.
  19. Is it ridiculous of me to get to 11-5 easily?
  20. I went to his show in Queens this summer and I'm glad I did. Thanks for all the great music over the years...
  21. I'm not ready to bury Arians, but that was in fact the worst challenge I've ever seen. Someone gave him very bad information.
  22. I feel like social media and the way some of these videos have gotten national attention has clouded the issue for many people. I've been a season ticket holder for ten years now. I have noticed a huge improvement in the last several years, not just this year. You wouldn't know it with the way they find a couple gem videos and portray all fans in that light, but with that many people in one area you can find whatever experience you are looking for.
  23. I'm not going to overreact if they can't beat one of the best teams in the league on the road. I WILL overreact if they do win!
  24. A lot of football left to play. Yesterday was a quality win. I'm intrigued moving forward.
