Rest in peace to a great entertainer, the Tiny Tot of the Kilowatt, Art Wander. I spent 100s of hours as a kid listening to him on WGR and there's no question he made me want to do the job. I got to meet and thank him exactly once and I'll always be grateful for that. What a #Buffalo legend.

My brain processed this as a full size fridge at first and I thought these people had 8 ham-sized hunks of cheese.

I've had it in the back of my mind for years that he'll eventually end up on the Sabres somehow.

A "becoming your parents" spot where the dad gives the cashier a lengthy, unsolicited breakdown of his home improvement project because that guy was definitely in line ahead of me at Home Depot this past weekend.

I agree with Nantz. The amount of people that will be watching this game specifically to root for both teams to lose will be staggering.

It's amazing how similar championship teams are across sports. They don't beat themselves. They're consistent. Killer instinct. Raise their game in the clutch. The Bandits are all of that.

Was just thinking this look could work for them. Don't like the black pants, though. White/gray would look better for a primary uniform.

As a Bills fan I can sympathize with the Leafs getting to the cusp and falling short time and again. As a Sabres fan I can take a lot of pleasure in the Leafs getting to the cusp and falling short time and again.

One on a small list in the history of rock where you can accurately say, "no one else could sing like that".

Having said that, I doubt either is ever actually voted in if the PED guys are any precedent.

I don't feel strongly one way or another on Rose getting into the Hall. He obviously had a HOF career. But if you put him in, then Joe Jackson has to go in. Either MLB views gambling as a disqualifier or it doesn't. It can't be a gray area.

I distinctly remember playing all of these songs and assbut is largely correct here. With few exceptions (Ocean Avenue, notably) this period of time was a drab landscape of mostly forgettable active rock; the B material released after the A material that made some of these bands famous.

Agreed. I mean it's fine, I guess, but I'm actually wondering how a powder blue road jersey might look.

I have like 3 or 4 within a few miles of me and pretty much all of them were built in the last few years.

No issue with mocks, necessarily, but analysis/reporting misses will inevitably happen and will sometimes lead to unrealistic expectations of where certain players "should" be drafted, which plays to Saban's point. With Sanders though, some part of it probably comes from the hype his dad generates.

I think a lot will depend on how it happens. If they back in because other teams lost and then get swept in the first round, maybe not so much. If they win in OT on the last day of the season to clinch, it'll be bedlam.

Good for Rory. Thought he might have his own version of 13 Seconds there for a hot minute but he got it done.

Still find it amazing that Gordie Howe, who's record Gretzky broke, had zero 50 goal seasons. Ovechkin has 9.

Had a chance a number of years ago to sit in the 100's for a Sabres-Caps game, and Ovie's shot is still the hardest I've ever seen in person. Like #895 today, the torque that he generates is incredible to see up close.

I have watched my neighbor do the same thing with his driveway. On some level I respect the dedication, the exception being 6am on a weekend.

Looking through Val Kilmer's IMDb and seeing he had a voice role a Robot Chicken brings a smile. Also thinking about his part in Top Gun: Maverick, where the emotional impact of the scene aligned with the audience's feeling of seeing him on screen again. Like he was playing himself, in a way.

Yeah. Still have my doubts on whether they'll ever get to Vegas. The whole situation is a bad look for MLB.

Maybe they thought grass would be cooler? I don't know know, but I saw the glorified party tent they're using for media and it's pretty embarrassing.

Sometimes I think about how that whole meeting went down. Who texted who? Murray had to have initiated, Whaley was't that privy.

At Osteria right now and mildly disappointed they don't have a framed picture of Doug Whaley and Tim Murray on the wall.
