WGR just reported the Sabres open on the 20th vs Flyers with the games starting at 12:30pm on NBC. Not sure who was home or away.

Oh good. We can start the season by showing two countries how badly we suck on live TV.

I'm just not sold on this team. They failed to make the playoffs last year, and while in glad we ditched Roy for Ott and Sulzer, I'm not convinced that its enough to put us over the edge.

The only good thing is that the Sabres tend to only play well for about half a season. There is only half a season this year, so hopefully it'll be the Sabres' good half.

Same with DirecTV. I called them on Saturday and the dolt said, "Oh I see the problem. There's a lockout."

Re: 2013 Sabres Opener

When I call Dish about anything pertaining to sports in any fashion, I know more about it then the guy from India and it takes him 20 minutes to come up with any resemblance of an answer and he is wrong after that any ways. I always regret calling. They probably won't unlock the Center Ice until Friday night but I'll bet it's on my bill already.

Switch to DirecTV. Their call center is in the South somewhere because everyone I talk to has a Southern accent.

Of course, being that its in the South, the Dish people from India probably still know more about hockey....
