D&D, Pokémon, Star Wars, Go Bills & Sabres. Kinda dumb, sometimes funny. Opinions are my own
Dear Kevyn Adams,
Never sign a terrible defenseman for only his leadership ever again. Now they look like themselves again.
Signed,
Every Single Sabres Fan
WATCH: As the Buffalo Sabres do literally anything positive in front of their mundane, dead quiet, probably barely into it, half empty crowd. Maybe Eichel had a point
Welcome to Sabres Twitter, where a trade of a 5th in 2021 for Wayne Simmonds allows people to be all like "iTs NoT lIke ThEyLl MaKe ThE pLaYoFfS"
Holy crap you all suck sometimes. Let the team try to make some moves. It's nice to see an incoming trade at the deadline for once.
Bills: *lose a tough game they should have won to start 0-1*
Sabres: "What?! WE are the team people should be mad at!"
*Gives # 30 to Aaron Dell*
"Perfect"
Good to see Marcus Peters got ejected for throwing a flag into the stands. Get your money's worth on your ejections.
Yet Gronk gets nothing for a dangerous hit to the head after a play. Asshole.
I get that it's Twitter and the world is a terrible place... but seriously, fuck every single person that is mocking Okposo for getting KO'd in a fight or are happy he's out of the lineup.
Well, now that they're out, I can go ahead with this.
This season was my last at WGR. I had a crazy time these past seven years and a huge list of people to thank for my time as I enjoyed being part of a place I listened to growing up. I'm guaranteed to miss some people *thread*
Two guys reportedly want out, the team still has no scoring depth and too many defensemen.
It has become clear that Jason Botterill isn't the answer.
#Sabres50
Imagine blaming one person when Botterill's incompetence, Murray's aggressive approach, Housley's horrendous coaching, Krueger's somehow even worse coaching, Ristolainen's defensive woes, Hutton's "goaltending" and the Pegula's meddling were ALL conveniently left out of this. Hm.
The Sabres prove that one toxic person can destroy a whole team. Imagine how much better a lot of businesses, organizations, sports teams, etc. would be if leaders listened & recognized the signs. If one person matters more than a whole team, that is a problem.
Jerry Sullivan: I'd respect the Sabres more if they don't re-sign Skinner at that price
Future Jerry Sullivan, probably: those clowns let a 40 goal scorer walk for nothing
I await the day we don't need to see or hear these takes from a minor league Skip Bayless.
#Browns
Deshaun Watson checked off the harsh winter conditions box during Saturday's 17-10 loss to the
#Saints
, proving that he's not just a fair-weather QB
You're really boasting about RATINGS during a PANDEMIC. People dont tune in just to see you, they want some form of answers, you egotistical cheeto.
Fuck. You.
And fuck any of you that defend this douchebaggery.
Because the “Ratings” of my News Conferences etc. are so high, “Bachelor finale, Monday Night Football type numbers” according to the
@nytimes
, the Lamestream Media is going CRAZY. “Trump is reaching too many people, we must stop him.” said one lunatic. See you at 5:00 P.M.!
THAT was the Devon Levi experience we were hyped for heading into the year.
Extand Mitts like right now.
JJ Peterka breakout season continues.
Sabres are over .500, keep it going Vibes Team™️
A bit of personal news today:
It took several years away & in my career field, but I have finally, officially graduated from Buff State! There are plenty to thank like
@supermannas
&
@JackKarlis
who guided me on, as well as every friend and family member along the way!
The Sabres are 8-3-1 in their last 12 games
I don't care where this was in November anymore. If they can finally rip off the wins at this pace, I no longer care about when, just if they can keep it up.
Here's something for you, Sal.
-Don't tell a man what they should do regarding family.
-Maybe don't take Trevon's tweeting seriously.
-Garbage like this is how star athletes get pushed out of a city.
-He did already address it.
-If you describe "word salad" look to McD, not Stef
Stefon Diggs says he's not responsible for his brother Trevon's comments about the
#Bills
and Josh Allen. OK, maybe he should tell his brother to shut his trap. My story: via
@DandC
So the Sabres crapped themselves tonight. On to the Isles...
That said: CAN WE STOP WITH THE "OH ITS LIKE LAST YEAR" BS EVERY TIME THEY LOSE. The weather from last night thinks you're too gloomy.
I'm not saying they're great. But ffs its hockey. Teams lose. CHRIST.
All Toney has to do is look to his left. All refs have a signal for a wide out to inform them if they are not on the line of scrimmage. They teach that in HIGH SCHOOL.
Kansas City fans and, more importantly, Chiefs themselves really need to shut the hell up lol
Even in the best of times, Bill Belichick has a way of taking the Bills' best receiver out of the game (ask Lee Evans). I wouldn't expect much from Stephon Diggs on Sunday.
#Jets
HC Adam Gase asked why Ty Montgomery (five snaps) wasn’t more involved.
“That’s my decision.”
Pressed on if he’ll be more involved later, he says it depends how he feels.
“That’s the beautiful part about being the head coach, I can basically do what I want”
Chad's thread here is, of course, on point. The toxicity of the Sabres fan base has shown its head in a lot of ways this season. From booing literally the first mistake made on home ice to the fuckin fan salute discourse to everything in between...
It is getting rather annoying.
Before I say what I’m going to say let me say this. It’s 13 years. Ppl should be mad. I’m annoyed. It’s not good enough. Some players are really underperforming.
Having said that it needs to be said
The insane negativity about EVERYTHING is exhausting. Idk how some do it. (1/?)
At least the Sabres annual season collapse after peak optimism happened far later than usual.
Get some gd goaltending, yeet Olofsson into the sun, Bryson to Pluto and find a way to move Jokiharju to third pair. Oh, and a new PK coach.
But this was a solid year for the Sabres.
I've gotten incredibly annoyed with the fans that cannot take a shred of criticism directed at their favorite football team.
They botched this investigation they claimed they had. You can tell by McDermott's post game presser. It is okay to admit the team didn't do it right.
Bills fans, how about this? I'll take back the word "stain" on the franchise and I'll call it an embarrassing situation that was mishandled from the moment the accuser's attorney made it known to them that trouble was coming. If you don't agree with that, then I'm befuddled.
Real quick, everyone should honor
@ZacharyJones198
with a damn follow because he isn't only an on air talent at the station, he's been there since 10am yesterday and is gonna get your Bills pregame up and soaring w/

One caller wants to move Eichel to the wing, another wants to ask if ROR having 2 PIMs all year is a good or not and a guy who is still outraged over trading a 6th round pick. Oh, and the guy who said Eichel needs Dahlin being drafted to light a fire
We don't deserve nice things
I will not see the slander on my boy Duffer like this.
Yes, the Sabres' annual collapse is annoying as hell. Yes, it's rough to watch. No, you don't have to listen.
But Brian ALSO HAS TO WATCH THIS & still tries to keep our heads up. Might be the toughest job in all of sports.
Brian Duffs sunshine up my ass crack positivity is probably the most annoying thing that could be happening on my tv right now
I miss Robitaille
He would grimace through intermissions in shit games like this. Absolutely throw players under the bus, like they should
He's piss.
Just a reminder that Ralph Krueger should hug a cactus or step on a Lego every day.
This team looks FUN again,even if we know the talent isn't all there yet.
Von Miller shouldn't be out there because of his legal issues but he also shouldn't be out there because he looks like he's not trying 90% of the time.
So…the Dolphins lose their only home field advantage which is the boiling Sun at Hard Rock during 1 pm games.
And the rematch is in Buffalo, likely late in the season, when weather conditions could favor the Bills.
Tired: Bills are standing pat cuz Von is always wrong
Wired: Beane asked him to post this so everyone THINKS we're not moving up because Von is always wrong
The refs made themselves a story here. That INT was trash. That DPI at the end was also trash. Get that crew fired into the sun.
That said, the Bills defense terrifies me.
