    Question, as I am not a native to WNY, which place would be best if you like a lot of sauce?  I've tried Duff's and Anchor Bar which were good but, I gotta be honest, I tried Mammosers one time, and I thought their wings were not very good at all.  Not much sauce and just kind of bland overall.

     

    If you're expecting a 'traditional Buffalo' wing, Mammosers is not for you.   They're dryer than 'wet' and tend to be smaller than 'jumbo.'   Still, they're a great change of pace to the same 'ol, same 'ol and I love em a bunch.

  2. Sully has always been an "outsider" (he's from Providence RI, I believe) and has maintained that POV his whole career.    Unlike the Felsers and Kelley's and beloved columnists who were home grown WNYers.     

     

    That detachment can be effective in the right hands.    But not for Jerry, who's always viewed local sports fans as drunks on barstools (of which there are many, to be honest).

    Are you sure ? I'm surprised a VP would be driving uber.

     

    "Kilgore is currently the Vice President of Public Relations for East Management Services LP an independent oil and gas exploration and development company. He and his wife Debbie live in Orchard Park and have a daughter Shannon who currently lives in Geneva Switzerland and is engaged to be married."

    East Management Services is one of the Pegula's companies.    It's based in Boca Raton, has 12 employees and Kim is listed as the owner.

     

  4. The only thing columnists like Sully are good for is giving my cockatiel a good laugh...and a place to take a dump.   

     

    He's got no access, no sources and the equivalent of drunk-on-a-barstool insights.    The only thing that's ever kept him in the game is his mastery of 20-20 hindsight and the fact a sizeable percentage of Buffalo area sports fans have no ability to remember / retain anything he's ever written or said.

    The rest of the story...it was all about severance pay:

    "...Jeff Pope, formerly a security coordinator for the Houston Texans, was fired last month for what the Houston Chronicle’s Aaron Wilson reported as for “job performance issues, including falsifying payroll and overtime records.”

     

    Pope, who is African-American, alleges that he was terminated based on his race and has filed a complaint with the EEOC after not coming to an agreement on a severance when his ties were cut with the Houston Texans.

     

     

    ORDER granting Motion to Dismiss. Case terminated on 3/22/21
