Not really a 'fair weather' fan - been watching the Bills for 25 years for example.
But I'm ashamed of, and embarrassed by, the total lack of response from the Sabres after the hit on Miller. I'm not sure I really am interested in being a fan of a team like that.
Maybe they don't like Miller in the locker room - maybe not. But even THAT wouldn't excuse it. There's an old expression - he may be an a$$hole, but he's OUR a$$hole. You do NOT let another team punk your team like that and still call yourself a man.
Heck, I don't even play hockey - and I wanted to put on a uniform and skates and run down that ice at full tilt and charge right into Tim Thomas when play resumed, and give the Bruins and their fans the finger!
I can't believe the apathetic "oh well" response during the game and the whining and wussy-talk from the Sabres since then.
I think we got a team of pretty boys, not real men. You can't train guys like that to be angry at being totally disrespected by another team - it's instinctive - you either have it in you to respond, or you don't
It's actually got me seriously considering NOT being a Sabres fan any more, at least until there's a major house cleaning of do-nothing apathetic players at First Niagara Center.
