ganesh Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 True dat - It's the little stretch of time where mini-camp is over, you've got your players signed, and you're going to take some time off before starting the grind that goes from start of training camp through the playoffs. Do you think pushing the Draft by 3 weeks next year will eliminate this lull in between mini-camp and training camp ?
machine gun kelly Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Yes we actually have to cut the lawn, grill out go to the beach and get off this website for a month. Have fun in summer. Our beloved team will be there in August.
bowery4 Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Do you think pushing the Draft by 3 weeks next year will eliminate this lull in between mini-camp and training camp ? But it will create a bigger lull before the draft, which is going to be really repetitive, boring and unbearable (the space of time before the draft is too effing long already). MGK is right, do what I do, enjoy rainy season
8-8 Forever? Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 All hail to hockey. The draft was this weekend. Buffalo is a hockey first town. Football is second. buffalo still has an NHL franchise? well fancy that
Buftex Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) I would never suggest that the Sabres are more popular than the Bills, in Buffalo...but if you don't live in WNY, or visit frequently you might not be aware of just how popular the Sabres are, in Buffalo. I go home once a year...the last 10 years or so, I have noticed a disproportionate number of people wearing Sabres gear veruse Bills gear...not a scietific study, mind you... now living smack dab in the middle of Texas, everyone takes their opportunity to give me **** about being a Bills fan...but when I wear a Sabres shirt, the most common comment is "is that minor league baseball?"

BillsfaninMyrtleBeach Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Well we could always watch Canadian football pre season games? Uh..........o.k. maybe not.
Delete This Account Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 asleep? perhaps, yawning in antipathy over what i expect to come. so why waste morsels of pessimism during the "offseason." jw
fergie's ire Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 Long time lurker....first time poster. Help me out....I'm jonesin' for info. I just need one little news tidbit to get me through...and I promise I won't bother you again. Just need some kind of report about actual players actually doing something. If you live in Buffalo and you see EJ in Wegman's tossin' a tub of Cool Whip in his cart...just share with me a little about his throwing motion. If you see Kiko attacking some wings...just write up a little analysis of his aggressiveness. Can't make it 'till training camp......

Might have to work on his ball security with a grip like that.
Just Jack Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Will EJ at Chef's suffice? Might have to work on his ball security with a grip like that. One small move with those thumbs and he's gonna drop that jar. And of course it will shatter, spilling sauce all over. And sauce is a B word to clean up, seems like you'll always have a red tinge where it was on your flooring.
Ennjay Posted July 19, 2013 Author Posted July 19, 2013 I'm sitting here watching a thermometer dance around 100 and wondering, even if he is from VA and went to FSU, exactly when was this picture of EJ in a winter vest taken?

About 3 weeks ago. You might find this funny: http://www.buzzfeed....red-for-the-nfl EDIT: There's some salty language in that article. Caveat Emptor. Edited July 19, 2013 by uncle flap

Like you, I'm a diehard Sabres fan. The Sabres have always been immensely popular in WNY but it's still a football town first and foremost. The reason for the disproportionate number of people wearing Sabres gear versus Bills gear, IMO, is due mainly to the fact that the Sabres have actually been good at various times during the last 13 years whereas the Bills have not. The Sabres have been a chic choice for a lot of casual Buffalo sports fans. The Bills, on the other hand, have done everything in their power to erode an entire generation of potential fans.
