Kudos to the Bills!

Just a quick post to give props to the Buffalo Bills, who have started 4-0 for the first time since 1992 (our second Super Bowl season). There are only 3 other undefeated teams in the league right now, and one plays tonight, so a big deal it is indeed. We're not only ahead of the Patriots in the division but tied for first in the entire league! Now to beat Arizona next week and take a 5-0 record into the bye week. (crosses fingers)

Breaking News

The Sabres are a bunch of assholes!

That is what the headlines should read. Ok team, playoffs are on the line, we play the Rangers.....oh let's get our asses kicked. Okay another chance against the Devils. Leading 3-0...alright we can stop playing now and allow one of the stars we chased out of town to score the winning goal against us. Our defense needs help...let's allow our star defenseman to leave town and then NOT REPLACE HIM ON DEFENSE but instead trade him for a no-talent left-winger and draft pick.

EVERYONE RUNNING THIS TEAM SHOULD BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY!!!!

He also said even selling out every regular season game won't turn a profit, he needs a deep playoff run for that. Well if you miss the playoffs entirely because you have a team of Andrew Peters', you're not turning a profit then. I'm not really blaming Golisano since yes, without him sweeping in last second we'd have no NHL team..but I do blame Regier and Quinn! 2 years in a row we had a deep playoff run....you screwed up boys! I do realize Miller and Max become UFA's next year...we need all the cash possible to keep Miller.

metalpeter writes at 08:40:52 02/26/08 - Comment #32137: I have to agree with you on how the team is playing. But what people have to understand is that The Sabres are a Small Market Team and will always be a small market team. The point of the Battle over the entire "CAP" issue is the same for every sport. You can't over pay players more then you can should so that your team goes broke you make no money and buy the championship. The problem is that it still winds up hurting teams like Buffalo because since they are small they don't get all the extra money that you can get from say like The Rangers or Penguins or Kings based on the size of the city. I think people should boo Briere because he was unloyal. No one knew who he was and then he plays for Buffalo and becomes a big star then leaves for the money, that is one of the problems with free agency is that it kills both team and player loyalty. Eventully it will kill the game of hockey. People will get sick of seeing there favorite player moving to another team so they will just stop watching, I think it is allready starting to happen in football that is why they are trying to go international. I do think that the sabres could have worked things out with Campell over the summer when it should have been done instead of during the season. In terms of the trade maybe they could have done better but if he is going to leave you anyways you might as well get something for the guy. One thing people forget is the sabres went broke and had no money and if it wasn't for Golisano we either wouldn't have a team or who ever bought the team if we could have found anyone would have tried to move it someplace. That being said the Sabres are about profit first and putting good product on the ice with out taking a chance of losing money. I think this team has forgot that what makes a team good isn't how many good players you have it is about how good you play together. I think that team that was so good for two years were not the best team in the league talent wise. It was the fact that they knew how to play together. One guy goes down put another guy in his place. That is the same way the NFL Pats used to be except the giants kicked the ass of a tired team who wore the wrong hoodie. My main point is people have to except we are a small market team who builds talent from the minors and players who are no names and become starts need to learn to be loyal and the team needs to see that they need to be a little bit more loyal also.
