Nothing like being on the brink of elimination to start playing lights-out.

The white one in the first few seconds? Surprised that’s still there. Would’ve thought the acreage for landscaping / parking / etc. for the stadium included something that close. Some of the other surrounding structure is temporary offices, but the planning did include a large building (black facade, light roof) as the electrical / wiring hub of sorts, which was built bigger than needed right now bc future upgrades will surely need more space.

Most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen, bar none.

I dunno about Ty being an every down back, but in his role, he’s great. Not just made many plays. Made many CLUTCH plays.

Honestly… it’s like something my 7 year old niece used to do in Minecraft. 🤨

Well they tried this with Pass Interference review when it wasn’t called and the refs (no doubt with ref union urging) gave everyone a huge middle finger every time. They WILL NOT relinquish any bit of control they have over the outcome of the game. And why is that…?

Yep. I’m not sure what others are saying upthread that Martin was pretty good / had a good 2024. Was I watching the same games? Martin’s motion was sloooowww, and it cost us the Rams game with the block & TD. There were a few others that were very nearly blocked too. Only concern is the holding duties for Bass, but TBH a new guy might be an upgrade there too.

Better than how the whole Sabres team ate 💩 out on the ice all night long. Adams had better be fired following the season. A mannequin would have done more. He talked this team & city down in the ‘no palm trees or sunshine’ presser which was just… unconscionable. But it all comes down to paying for players — I don’t know if it’s a directive from Terry P but payroll is near the floor, right? — and not keeping around dead weight. Several prospects in the pipeline that are still developing but for a few of them, it’s time to sh— or get off the pot. And, I hate to say it, but UPL hasn’t looked very good most of this year.

This was quite a late all star break going by past years, when it has traditionally been in late January - very early Feb. Sabres have 26 games left of an 82-game season.

Wow. Heck of a comeback. But as someone on the Sabres FB page wrote: No lie detected.

A place near me invented the sour cream base, red potato, bacon, broccoli pizza. That’s a favorite. They also have a California pizza with sun-dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts that is awesome. I’ve made pizzas at home since I was a teen. Usually would go with pepperoni, black olives and onion back in the day, but have been trying different things like the above inspirations in more recent years (I use ricotta as the base for the potato-bacon-broccoli one tho. It’s just better.)

“The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” is one of THE most beautiful songs, ever. If I were on a deserted island and had an iPod and solar charger with 5 songs, that would be one of them.

I mean… are they just gonna be back on Monday? Because if so, they just got a long weekend out of sexual harassment and that gal should maybe look into legal options / HR. Are the guys like day laborers, tradesmen, union? Did the boss at the very least upbraid them?

I thought the dead cap hit was $8M last season iirc. It’s less for this year, but still not nothing.

Yep. Bachelor here coming up on 45. My two brothers’ marriages & their ends ain’t been the best example for me to want to do that to myself. I’m also on the autism spectrum and tried dating a few times but never really had a relationship. I don’t think I’m entirely Aro in the feels, but functionally I am. In this day and age, marriage is just a piece of paper that allows someone to take 50-75% of your stuff when the odds are quite high that they’ll divorce you.
