All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
In the end, there are only three liberal archetypes: The fools, the beneficiaries and the crooks.

"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success of liberty. - John F. Kennedy, January 20, 1961
To live in the presence of great truths and eternal laws,
to be led by permanent ideals -
that is what keeps a man patient
when the world ignores him,
and calm and unspoiled when the world praises him. -- Honore De Balzac
Unbelievable, just when you think that people can't piss you off anymore, I am so mad at the Rigasas. "I will do whatever it takes to bring the cup to Buffalo" B ***** S. He had the worlds greatest GT and not once did he really try to win with him.
I was at a trade show held by AT&T Broadband, a major cable outlet here in Boston. There were a number of ad executives and sales reps from all the major cable networks (ESPN, BRAVO, Lifetime, Nick, and so on....) and they were around my booth all day because I had a TV hooked up with Fox News.
While making small chat, we noticed Rigas getting hauled off and I made the comment.... "I'm glad the guy is getting hauled off! He ruined my Buffalo Sabres! I hope they can survive and remain in Buffalo!"
Meanwhile, forgetting these folks were all connected within the industry...."'OH my god! They got John! I don't think he will live through this... this will kill him!"
Then they all start looking at me like I got 4 heads or something....
Actually, the NHL is only controlling the team. Rigas "officially" owns the team until it is sold, although he has no control over the day-to-day running of the team anymore.
