    How about some honesty?

    When you say "taxpayer's money" you mean your own personal money since you believe most of the population does not pay taxes and is sponging off you right?

    I'm not sure but if half of the people living around you are driving without any insurance or job, I'd say this is probably fairly accurate.

    We already have posters calling for Pegula to sell because he's obviously not helping the team's win.

    Maybe you like seeing our teams suck because right now we are about the worst they've ever mutually been, even our BAnkruptcy time for the Sabres had a great squad. We have nothing now, seriously nothing.

    We have 2 teams in Buffalo. That's far from nothing. I'd rather have 2 sucky teams than none at all. If you disagree with that, you can either stop watching football and hockey altogether or go find other teams to root for. Whining like a ***** will get you nowhere.

    Again, only an idiot would demand that Pegula sell the team because if he were to do that, the new owner(s) would surely move the team to a better market. Maybe Pegula will do that eventually. Who know? But for now they're here. Hopefully it stays that way until I die, but if it doesn't, like will go on and I'll probably stop watching football.

    As for understanding management, look no further than the Cheaters. Without Brady, hell even with a 1st overall pick in Bledsoe, Belichick's record as a HC was dismal. The Bills have had numerous regimes since the SB years and they've all failed to get another franchise QB. Do that and things get better quick and make everyone look like geniuses.

    Because after the Pegula's making fools of themselves with the Sabres for the past 6 years there couldn't possibly be a better or more competent owner. Fans are stage 5 clinging in hopes of the teams getting better, while they get worse. Folks, it's ugly right now and the owner is leading the search for a new hockey management. The owner that knows how to drill wells as a background. See in their mind, they have the money so they know what they're doing. Talk about clueless and soon to be disinterested, that's when the problems start and end.

    In other words, the DP bought the Sabres and Bills as a charity case to the City of Buffalo.

    I don't follow hockey closely enough to know where the problems are for the Sabres. What I do know is he fired Ruff and Regier (who had success under Golisano) and hired Ted Nolan, like most people thought he should do, and then hired a SC-winning coach in Bylsma. He also expanded the scouting department and spent lots of money on players and the facilities.

    You could say that. And for as long as the team stays in Buffalo, I'll be grateful to them and Ralph Wilson.
