Bon Jovi delivered music that got the youngins up and dancing. When Bon Jovi is played, the majority of us middle age folks sing along. He's smart in marketing and writing music that goes along with the marketing. His music to me is meh. So much better out there. Honeymoon Suite were about the same time, and their music is superior to Bon Jovi.

I was working a temp job for the Sabres, and watched the game from the Zamboni entrance. After the game, the likes of Luce, Playfair, Ramsay, handed to me and a couple of others the banners that were lowered from the rafters. What no one knew about, is that those banners were attached to solid lead pipes. Heavy as all get out. I nearly tripped Sean Burke as he was coming out of the Whalers dressing room. He laughed and said no big deal.

For the Comeback game, The old American Sports Bar and Grill on Transit, now a Cracker Barrell, had "Full NFL Coverage". Yes. They had the game on. It was packed to start the game. At halftime, more than half the people left. When the comeback started, they had to lock the doors as the managers estimated 2500 people were in the bar and seating area. When Christie made the field goal, waitresses started dancing on the tables. Good times.

You don't live on a pedestal.

More gig money? Nah. Bar owners aren't that generous.

Keeping this as a poll only thread. Don't need two threads on discussing this.

Marv Levy was highly overrated and should not be in the Hall of Fame. He was a very good people manager, and a bad coach.

There are a number of school districts who have eliminated buses, and school might mandate that parents drive their kids to school to eliminate walking in the dark. I am 1000% of Daylight Savings Time being permanent.

My Uncle and Aunt were very big in the Judo community. My uncle when he passed had 8 black bets in Judo. One of his students has 3 black belts himself, and he teaches Judo at UB. So I gave it a go. Lasted 3 weeks and I'm like, Nope. I'm good.

I need to think about how to respond to this. Let me get a Vodka and Tonic and ponder this.

Or on a day that ends with "day"

And your problem with day drinking is???

Now that you mention it...

I'm sitting this one out. Life is getting busy for me.

how do you know this stuff?!?!

@Mike in Horseheads remembered this. I had mentioned in the 1.0 Draft thread that I missed my 3rd round pick, because partly I was at work. Yes. I am working. My wife owns a literacy center that specializes to children and adults who fit the Dyslexia profile. On the same day for their own personal reasons, her Office Manger and Services Coordinator submitted their resignation. So she came up to me and simply said "do you want a job"? So I am filling both roles as my wife's Office Manager and Services Coordinator. I told her a week into this, that there is no one that would be as invested as me to see the company succeed. That is happening. We have cut non-employee spending from 65% to 17% of all income. A number of private pay clients were not getting billed for a number of reasons. I went to work and now we are nearly at zero of private pay clients who owe money. (We were over $4000 a month. We also have clients to where their school districts pay for services). We were able to give her teachers a very nice pay raise, and I'm in line to greatly increase my pay as early as next week, as well of substantially bumping my wife's pay. Her accountant is happy with me lol. We have a strong marriage, and much to my amazement (and hers), we have a strong business relationship as well. PTO is also a breeze. I can simply roll over in bed and ask, "Sweetie, wanna play golf tomorrow?"

Sorry I missed my pick. Work then band rehearsal had me signing on late.

Who is going to be Jack Nicklaus' record of 18 wins in a Major tournament? Tiger has 15, and I think Tiger is just about done. Maybe Scottie Scheffler can do it?

NEVER!!! Main and Hamlin is superior.

To add to this: Now mind you, these are all places that are going to be in East Aurora. We live almost exactly in the middle in between East Aurora and Orchard Park. We ALWAYS make the right out of our driveway and to into East Aurora. Pizza: For pizza at home, Pizza Del Aurero's. They do have a cool 50's retro sitting area. For dine in, this place has won national awards for being open for only a year. Pizzeria Florian. Wings: Bar Bill is where all the tourists go. Main and Hamlin is where all the locals go. Their Beef on Weck, Smash Burgers, and Chicken Crunch sandwiches are also amazing, but the star is the Wings. Fish Fry's are huge here. Wallawines Tavern is a good spot for a really good Fish Fry, but our favorite is Riley Street Station. Crunchy yet most and flakey fish, to go with great sides. The vibe in there is also really great. My wife and I can't understand this, but the place in East Aurora that is packed the most is Pasquale's Italian. It's good, but not earth shattering, and every weekend you can't find a parking spot for at least a quarter of a mile. 189 Burger (which is owned by Bar Bill) has the best burgers in EA. Really cool industrial vibe when going in. The burgers are top notch. For fine dining, Rick's on Main is the spot. Really great food with a great atmosphere. One place that has bounced back and has good bar food is Rookie's Sports Bar. Fun place. They went through a number of ownership changes. The new owners have found a groove with that place.

A little makeup, and I would.

Trades are in subsequent drafts. This mock is a no trade draft.

Are you an NFL GM?
