Sabres on a war path who ha

By Steve

Alllll a board! The Buffalo Sabres bandwagon might be making a few extra trips this week if the Sabres continue to (gasp) score and win games. Sure they are still in 2nd last place in the conference and are 14 points out of first place, but they are on a three game winnings streak.

The Sabres won again last night in HSBC arena against the Habs to push a modest winnings streak to 3 games. Granted two of the games were sandwiched between a major holiday and perhaps the opposing team playing on the road had more of a disadvantage but the Sabres highly paid scorers actually showed up for a change. That and only that is some small cause of celebration. Well that and the long awaited return of point producer Tin Can Connolly.

Even more on the bright side is the fact that the Sabres have played the second fewest games in the Conference AND its only November. So there is still plenty of time for the team to, ya know, get into the playoff picture at least.

Tonight might be a bit more of a litmus test for this team, as they play on the road in an electric atmosphere after playing the night before. If they win this win, then I'd be brave enough to say they have truly turned the proverbial corner at least a tad.

BUT if they lose, and in embarrassing fashion, which isn't necessarily probable or likely it could happen. Then everyone will be calling for Maxi Pad's head. Or they will point out that their $10 million man Tommy Vanek is on pace for 20 goals a fourth of the way through the season.

Either way you can pretty much guarantee Darc/Quinny are going to fuck it up some how. They'll bide their time with their thumbs up their asses, pretend to negotiate with Brian Cambell posture about Maxi's status around the trade deadline and eventually pick up Bob Corkum out of the East Coast hockey league or somethin.

I'm not saying by any stretch of the imagination that tonight is a must win especially with two following games against St Louis and Washington, but then they go out a tough far west road trip and a real barn burner Dec 1 at home against Carolina.

Damn it though, I was gonna rag on how they couldn't sell out cause there was a rumor there were still tickets available Friday afternoon but it appears from nhl.com and espn.com that the game did in fact sell out. Congrats Tommy G!

Bills podcast? Don't hold your breath but we'll see.

Embarassed but still 5-5

by Steve

What can you say, it was embarrassing. The worst loss at home in the NFL in 30 years or something. Patriots are good, they cheat, they get calls, they whine, but they put up numbers and tom tom has enough time back there to blow and rim job his running back and OT.

The Bills are alive, Losman for some reason is playing next week, Marshawn is doubtful but its only Jacksonville. It isn't the Patriots again. Tennessee lost, the Bills basically control their own destiny.

F The Cheating Gaytriots their fans their coach etc.

Here's some pictures from the game..

Jim Kelly our savior. Keep the Bills in Buffalo.

FUCK THE PATRIOTS



ME AT THE PATS GAME 2 YEARS AGO SON
by steve

But I digress. Alright, this is Superbowl 29 for the Buffalo Bills. Sure we lost 25-28, embarrassingly for the most part, but this is where the franchise known as the Buffalo Bills can completely reverse the course it seems to be destined for, failure.

Sure the line has gone up and up and presently sits at 16 points. And sure the Patriots cheated er have "won" 3 Super Bowls this decade and everyone loves Tom Brady and is a heterosexual. Alright well most of those things are true but if the Bills some how upset the Patriots at home on Sunday Night Football in their own barn WITHOUT Marshawn Lynch ending the Gaytriot's dreams of an undefeated season it would be like winning the Super Bowl. Or about as close as the Bills will get for the foreseeable future.

I personally am not anticipating an upset of magnificent proportions, mostly because you can't predict things like that. However, if there was a money line available to bet on I surely would throw a few bucks on it. Crazier shit has happened, has it not? This is the NFL where allegedly any team could win on any given Sunday yadda yadda yadda. Look at the Cowboys MNF game, 11+ point under dogs...

Here's why it could happen...
  • The Patriots are coming off a bye. They were the hottest most dominant team for 9 straight weeks. They got a 13 day layoff to think about it, cool down, get too comfortable.
  • New England is due to lose. No one can be that good for that long, hopefully.
  • Their linebackers are older than dust. This deep in a grueling NFL season, those old MFers have got to be sore. Junior Seau is older than our entire linebacking core combined for Christ's sake.
  • Larry Maroney has 417 yards and 0 touchdowns. He isn't good and Sammy Morris is worse.
  • The Bills actually have depth at running back. Sure Marshawn Lynch is a perennial hall of famer but we still have Fred Jackson and and and .. Anthony Thomas! Yeah, hopefully Dwayne Wright gets most of the carries and shows he is worth a 4th round draft pick.
  • This will be Randy Moss' first true cold weather game. Sure he usually tears it up on a big stage but it will be below freezing and he is a pussy.
  • JP Losman has never played in a prime time game. So we don't have any history of sucktatude and idiot/erratic play yet. Maybe he doesn't suck in big games, because to be honest he hasn't seen a game this big in his career and he actually played admirably in the Titans game week 16 last year.
  • This is a free game for the Bills. There really shouldn't be any pressure on them to win. Everyone circled this as a loss. Actually the pressure is on the Patriots and their perfect season.
  • PLUS There is always that chance Brady gets injured too..
Prediction
Look for the Bills to keep the audience tuned in until the 2nd half. Unless the special teams goes nuts and Brady turns into Romo circa week 5 this one won't come down to a score late in the 4th quarter.

Bills 9 Patriots 28 (Keeping it under 20 which is all I'm hoping for, but not covering the spread)

Next week is hugggggggggge "Playoffs?!?"

NCAA preview top 10 teams top 5 "rookies"

by A Schrum

Top 10 NCAA Men’s Basketball Preseason/Week 1:

1 - UNC. This hurts because I hate the Tar Heels but with Tyler Hansbourgh manning the middle and Ellington and Lawson in the backcourt … this team is hard not to put at 1. The lose of Wright will hurt but Roy Williams has this team ready for a run at the final 4.

2 - UCLA. Howland shouldn’t worry to much about losing Arron Afflalo, he didn’t show up in March anyways. With Darren Collison being the best PG in the country and a break out season for Josh Shipp last year the Bruins are in good shape. Senior leadership from Mbah a Moute will keep this team grounded and poised for a great year. Oh yea and the addition of the Gatorade Male Athlete of the year 6’10, 260 center Kevin Love will help. A LOT!

3 - Memphis. Joey Dorsey is a monster in the middle. Hopefully he won’t guarantee anything this year like he did against Greg Oden last year though. Chris Douglas-Roberts is an All American and with Derrick Rose stepping in at point guard, this team is an instant contender. Johnny Calipari might have his best chance for a national title this year.

4 - Kansas. Brandon Rush entered then withdrew from the draft, good move on his part. As a junior he will again be their leading scorer and go to guy on defense. He is recovering from ACL surgery, but should be back by Christmas. No big deal though,; guards Sherron Collins and Mario Chalmers and big man Darrell Arthur will hold down the fort until Rush returns just in time for conference play.

5 - Georgetown. Roy Hibbert is 7’2. You can’t teach height and size. Stick him in the middle with Jonathan Wallace and Jessie Sapp and this team is ready. Jeff Green is gone, and its hard to replace the Big East Player of the Year, but a guy to ready to fill his shoes is DaJaun Summers. JT3 went out and also brought in a pretty solid freshman class. Look for them to compete with Louisville for the Big East title this year.

6 - Louisville. If Derrick Caracter can stay healthy and out of trouble this year, this team is going to be a major threat come March. Terrence Williams had a break out season last year, especially in the Big East Tourney. Guard Edgar Sosa and center David Padgett round out 4 out of 7 leading scorers that return this year for the Cardinals.

7 - Indiana. That’s right, Indiana. The return of the glory days are back in basketball country. If Calvin Sampson can leave his fingers of the phones and just coach this team is primed for excitement. Eric Gordon, number 2 ranked recruit will need some discipline at first but look for this kid to be a superstar in the backcourt. I don’t think much needs to be said about D.J. White except that he was smart to leave the draft and come back to school. Just wait D.J., you’ll see why it was a good idea.

8 - Tennessee. We all know how Bruce Pearl gets down. Think painted chest at women’s basketball game. Anyways, with the best pure shooter in the NCAA, Chris Lofton, and Iowa transfer Tyler Smith the Vols could make a serious run at the SEC title this year. Their big men are strong and aggressive, which makes this one of the most complete teams in basketball. Remember, this team lost no one and almost beat OSU last year in March. A year under their belt means serious trouble for opponents as long as everyone stays healthy.

9 - Washington State. Derrick Low and Kyle Weaver lead last years surprise team this year to a top 10 ranking. Head coach Tony Bennett has this team playing the best defense in the country and unfortunately wont be able to stay under the radar screen this year. Look for teams to be better prepared against this tenacious defense but not fairing so well. Should be able to compete close with UCLA in the PAC-10.

10 - Duke. Gotta do it. I’m a Cameron Crazy. Lets go DUKE. Who’s your daddy Battier. You know everyone loves to hate Duke but with freshman Kyle Singler and the return of stand out PG Greg Paulus this team should fair better than last year. DeMarcus Nelson returns as their leading scorer and Marcus Henderson should be healthy (one of the best all around athletes in basketball). They’ll play scrappy Coach K defense and their scoring should be up. Look for seven footer Brian Zoubek and shooter Jon Scheyer to make huge improvements in their games.

Teams to watch out for:

Michigan State, Mississippi State, Kansas State, Marquette, Oregon, and Arizona to keep the top 10 on their toes.

Top 5 Diaper Dandies

1. Derrick Rose, Memphis:17 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 turnover, 2 blocks in 102-71 win over UT-Martin; 21 points, 5 rebounds, 2 steals, 2 blocks in 80-63 win over Richmond.
