Why didn't the Sabres just do "The Aud Club: Presented by [BRAND]" or "The Labbatt Blue Aud Club" The Aud Club was cool and unique to Buffalo, why mess with that? A corporate sponsor would've been eye-roll-inducing, but nowhere near as lame as a Mich Ultra bar.

I think at a minimum for City: -Titles stripped -Mansour and UAE are forcibly ejected from club ownership and never allowed to buy another club -If not outright ejection from the league, a points deduction so massive that they are sent down -A multi-year points deduction to kneecap them for a while

Sports have rules! Football has them! From eleven players to handball to financial fair play. They aren’t inconveniences to ignore. All of City’s recent success came from the club committing massive levels of fraud over multiple years. It brings the legitimacy of the PL into question. Gots to go!

someone the other day compared 30 Rock and Community to the Beatles and the Beach Boys, respectively. 30 Rock is untouchable, a giant, the gold standard, as good as it gets. And yet every now and then something would go down on Community that just had you gobsmacked, staring at the TV in awe.
