  1. I worked two jobs during the Jeter era and rarely watched sports. I’m making up for it now. I was not aware of Jeter’s at bat antics, but upon further review, you are right.
  2. Were Gabe Davis to hit the open market this offseason, he’d be a much richer man soon.
  3. Well, you didn’t do it on porpoise.
  4. The Snyder pursuers now have another reason for pounding NFL doors for more skeletons in their closet and more emboldened to suspect the NFL is still throwing shade on Snyder. Not the way to stay in good graces with the D.C. bunch bothered by the NFL’s above the law notion.
  5. a. offensive tackle b. overtime c. occupational therapy d. all the above
  6. Frazier won’t be dragging down his overseer.
  7. …..not that I remember this play, but Bills newspaper pics in the mid ‘60’s were an impetus towards my fandom.
  8. Naming it rich stadium would make more sense now.
  9. Saban/Alabama mastery irritates. Reminds me of that old guy who recently retired who kept winning SB’s. People crave something to loathe.
  10. Guessing you would know this, are Vampires vegan?
  11. I was referring to the BN, remember it well when they set out to claim the morning glory of newspapers and their pride when they became the unopposed local info print darlings.
  12. Yeah, the brass there was an arrogant, elitist bunch, they were proud of their sinking of the Courier-Express. Just desserts included in their Happy Meal.
  13. Just to follow up on my BN e-edition subscription attempt saga. Tried again this morning to enroll online to no avail. Called then at 9:30, on hold 15 minutes, then hung up, waited a few, tried again, after 10 minutes a prompt to leave my #. Twenty minutes ago, 11:53, phone rings, call from Iowa, a nonsense call likely, but thought, could it be the BN? Answered, it was. Call center clearly, but, my perseverance was rewarded, got a year ‘script for $26. UPDATE: At 12:04 got an email from BN, just read it, 1:15. Submitted me into a 90 day introductory subscription for $26, a plan that is nowhere to be found anywhere online. …..unreal. And they’re closed for the day.
  14. Like dinosaurs, radio, local and national broadcast TV and print media, are going extinct.
  15. The thought of two inexperienced sophomore starting DB’s and waiting to see where Hyde and White fill me with…..hope?
  16. Won’t regret it, bit of surprises, in that so few did so much and with no fanfare.
  17. Hey, it is what it is.
  18. If you love the old stuff or not, a worthwhile watch. One of the legends is a Niagara Falls native. Have watched numerous times. Believe full movie w/ads, is available on YouTube. Is on Peacock presently.
  19. BN bombard me to subscribe for the E edition, so I decided to go ahead a few days back for a $45 for the year. I never have had it, I stopped home delivery 3 yrs. ago. Could not do it online. Tried repeatedly, I had 5 offers alone last week, none would allow me to enroll in them and that I needed to call. So, I call and that office closed at one. So I’m like okay, try tomorrow. That night I get NYT offer, full site access and The Atlantic, for $65 for 1 year. Done deal. Took minutes to be enrolled in both. But, my guilt and sense of Buffalo loyalty got me, I’ll call/try, email, Mon., probably have to leave a message and wait a few days to hear back.
  20. Reminds me of when the morning newspaper never had west coast final scores because they went to press before games ended. Now, It’s because the presses aren’t running.
  21. I’d like a 2nd opinion before jumping to conclusions.
  22. Beats a blew it all story.
  23. The NHL cannot figure out how to become more appealing beyond adding franchises. Bettman gets credit for this being how to grow the game during his 30 year tenure, but it sure seems it’s further in the rear view mirror from the NFL,NBA and MLB and the players earnings are escrowed at 17%. That’s a chunk they never see on top of taxes. A Gretzky type media boon was a one time thing. It won’t be replicated no matter what.
  24. Saved and survived, no doubt. Lots of hands helped him do that. A miraculous blessing, I dare say, for Mr. Hamlin.
