Home Ice disadvantage ?
I love that the sabres are going with the 3rd Jersy. That is their best one I think. Maybe since I'm not a fan of "The Slug" alone. What I mean is that by itself it doesn't look good. But when it is over something or as writting under it like Sabres it looks nice.
What I don't know is does every NHL team have a 3rd Jersy? If not then what teams do and don't have them?
In The NFL the Home Team picks what to wear and then the other team gets the opposite color (I mean light color vs. Dark Color). In the NFL there can be a big advantage Heat wise, well or at least that is what the TV people say? But how does it work in the NHL? Is it the Home Team that picks what they wear or is it the Team with the Home Ice Advantage?
This Leads me into the Penguins. Yes the Sabres are my #1 team and my Favorite team but I also like the Penguins but never really have the time to watch them. Ssshhh Don't tell anyone I like Crosby and he is the face of the team but Malkin is Better, again lets not let anyone know that ok, HA, but I think it is true.
Here is what I don't get though. You are at home and you have the thing where everyone wears those white shirts. Ok they look great on TV and give a great effect. But there is only one problem. You wear the Black Jersy so that means Ottawa is in White. Yes you still have the advantage of your fans. But Now everyone matchs the other team. I know if I'm Ottawa I know I'm away but they are wearing our colors so they are routing for us. I think it takes away a Part of the Advantage. So Why Not give away (Think they are free not sure) Black T-shirts? Or Go With the White Jersys or Even go with those Pretty Winter Classic Blues? Can someone who Knows more about this Help me out on this.
On a side Note I would love to see the Penguins face the Sabres in the Eastern Conferance Finals but I don't know if that is even Possible hey they both have to win what are going to be tough series.
Lets Go Buffalo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bandits Beat Rock
One Thing I should explain is when the Bandits win they do a victory lap so that is what the running around was up above.
Oh and if anyone is reading this you will notice that I'm starting at the end of the game and going backwards ......
One of the cool things about sports is the Crazy Fans. This can be the Black Hole where people paint the face and wear spikes and all kinds of things, or how about the Hogettes. Yes guys who dress as girl pigs at Redskin Games. There are all kinds at the bandits game like a guy in picture a spiderman (old style lyrca) suit but it is all orange and no eyes or mouth. But what I Saw at Half time (hey I needed more food and drink) was the oddest thing I think I have seen, Yes that Kid? Dressed as the Purple Tela-Tubby or however you spell it. Yes there is some Purple in the Bandits Colors but even factoring that in it still seems a bit odd I saw nothing connecting it to the bandits but maybe there is some story that I don't know about?
Well that pretty much sums it up. Now to decide if my next picture post will be of Opening Day or TSO not sure how to get the essence of opening day.

Bandits Lost argh but still alive
Oh Yeah the Pink Helmets are being auctioned off and some of the money (I have no idea what the cut or percentage is) goes to a breast cancer Charity.
After the intro and anthems and all that they brought something out on the field. Right on the glass it is sometimes tough to hear. My understanding is that Darris Kilgour now holds the Record For most wins.
As Much as I like my water camera this is an example of why I would like to get a camera (for when I know no rain or snow) with a good zoom like 5x Optical at least and there are some not huge cameras that are 10x but I wonder how good of a camera that is and if it is really 10x or if they are lying and counting in some digital or if you crop the picture. That was how my kodak camera was. You could take a pictures as say 8 or 10 mega pixels so it could be a really big picture if you wanted it to be, then you could crop it in Camera . That would make you subject take up more of the picture and it would make the MPs smaller but it would still be enough to be a 4x6. Ok enough about camera stuff.
GAME ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Changing of the Goalies That I mentioned happened in the above pictures. I think if they would have done it sooner they might have won, hard to say really?
At Half time they had "Super Fans" lead cheers. Now why they didn't have any fine Ladies to the Box Cheer I don't know maybe they could even make it from to "The Box" "My Box" that would have been great but it didn't happen.
Captain Bandit lead the best cheer by far he had one side of the arena chant one thing and the other side chant another he even tossed shirts into the fans (guy with hat and the tittle belt). I didn't get the shirt but it was tossed to me by someone else. Yes it is a little creepy it says I heart Captain Bandit and then his face is in the Heart. That is a cool idea. But still kinda Creepy. So here are pictures from after the game.
Also During Half time the kids played laCrosse and then a bit later out came the Bandettes Oh yeah.........
It is to bad we lost it was atleast exciting. Hoping for a win on Saturday that is a game we must win really.

Buffalo and Artvoice
-Voting Closed on the first I think I forgot to vote till like that day
-I voted for him as best Photographer
-Best Blogger Paul Visco aka Paul at (e:strip).org
But where things get interesting is there are a lot of places and things that I have no idea what to vote so I skipped them like best Dance Club and best corner bar and dive bar but what does that say about me.
- I have to get out more and find these places
- I couldn't remember the name of that cool gay bar with the really nice wood where we met up with (e:theecarey)
-- I forgot about Ted's and Louie's for best Hamburger but what does that say about me that I can't think of a local Hamburger place it is very sad I Think
- I couldn't think of a local strip club
- I couldn't think of a good head shop
- Couldn't think of a good adult sex shop
I guess I need to go hit up a head shop and a porn shop after I meet a girl at a strip club and we go get high together and then go find a place to eat after we use our toys or something, oh wait all those girls got busted, damit, kidding of course but man I really do need to get out a bit more.
That being said there are two great groups whose music I don't know that well who are coming to the Town Ballroom but not together. Alexisonfire (If you are from Canada and haven't heard of this band they kick you out of the country now a days, ha). I saw them once and they where great they opened up for Snapcase at what was supposed to be their last show. Well Snapcase is back and they are bringing Sick Of it all ( don't know much of there stuff either but saw them with Hatebreed I think and they where really good), Not sure if the other bands playing with them are Hardcore also. These are two shows I must go to. Next concert I'll be at is TSO yes they are doing a non christmas tour and they are at Sheas on April 15 the day after Bisons opening day, that should be pretty interesting.
Well time for my lame as to go I can't think of anything else to write about how many types of places I have no clue about how to vote on, oh well.............................

Buffalo Photos
So On March 12th I went to the sabres Game. These pictures aren't from that game they are from before the game around that part of town.
Not sure if this video shows how the water moves out to the blue water or not. It feels like I typed that above before but hey maybe someone will like this video.

Being Single is weird but ...........
The Movies: So when I go to the movies I like to go early in the day. There some reasons for this. It is Cheaper. It is bad enough if you don't like the movie and then to add that extra cash in. There is less of a crowd. I'm sorry but I want to sit where I want to sit I don't want to have to do an obstacle course of people to find my seat. Plus at night is when a lot of assholes come out, also trouble makers, that is why the cheap show on elmwood closed. Going by myself I can choose what movie and when to go. Now Dating someone we would first have to choose a movie, I think finding one we both would like might be tough. Hey if we don't like the same type of movie then maybe we should just end it then right? Then we have to figure out when and where to go and all that back and fourth argh. Then since I'm the guy it would be 2 tickets and you can't go with a date with out getting the food, Have you seen the prices? They often don't even have the collectable movie promo bags anymore, argh...... I'm guessing with the added cost it would be down to one movie a month at the best.
Sports: This year I have Bandits Season tickets and if they make the playoffs then I will have to get those as well. I sit right on the glass, have no idea how I got that lucky again. I also got lucky in that the people next to me on my left are pretty cool. Now assuming the person I was with liked the games or wanted to go well then. There is no way would be on the glass. Then the ticket prices would double again 2 tickets. I like to go down early and eat and watch all the warm ups. That leads to how would we work that out. Now what happens if we break up during the season how on earth would we work that out? Who's tickets are they really? If she is a fan she isn't going to want to stop going and neither would I.
Some of what I mentioned is true of the sabres also. This year for the first time ever I got a mini pack. Well it is kinda a mini pack but for some reason didn't have all the benefits of the other ones. I think it was 6 games. Again the same stuff applies here 2 tickets so farther away from the ice. Double the price from tickets and food. I'm guessing do to the bandits it would be down to 1 or 2 sabres games at the most. Now money wise I would go with the bandits but she might want the sabres. Of course both of these assume she likes sports, hey maybe she would rather just go with her girls but I doubt it.
(e:strip) events. Ok I admit I think it would make those more fun. Well assuming she likes the (e:peeps). Nice Parties and get togethers are better with two. Plus she could take some pictures and if she Joined the site take some of the pressure of off the Peterazzi. The down side is that entire do you want to stay for like a certain time or just see what happens? That entire nogociate thing ?Argh
I thought I was going to go on for longer but I kinda ran out of steam. Other then to say concerts would be the same way. When I go to a show I like to see the openers. I'm sorry people who come in and only see the main act piss me off. You know why your main act is a main act now, because people found out about them when they where an opener. Then of course figuring who we want to see together could be interesting, hopefully we like the same bands or one of us is really going to want to blow our brains out.
