Yeah huge opportunity slips away with that loss. I've only seen two Sabres game 7s, one in 06 and one in 01, both losses in close games. I'd hate to lose another game 7 to Laviolette, especially since I think Lindy has really outcoached him. Philly's probably been the better team in 5 of the 6 games, but they barely have 3 wins.
I'll be ecstatic if Buffalo pulls it off Tuesday, but 3 out of 4 on the road is tough to pull off. Miller will have to be perfect.

Huge win for the Sabres last night. I'd seen LA blow a 4-0 lead and seen the Rangers blow a 3-0 lead, and when the Flyers tied it up 3-3 in the third I was really down. Game 5 is so huge, had a great penalty kill late in the period and Ennis wins it in OT. Up 3-2 with Game 6 in Buffalo sunday... can't wait.
#173 Re: The Garden » McDonald's to hire 50,000 people nationwide » 741 weeks ago
One of the local radio shows mentioned this. They said McDOnalds are able to do this because they have a deal with the government to keep there current health care.
short term: 50k new jobs!
Long term; 700k with unaffordable health care?I could not find a news source on here to support the radio claims.
If true, that's very disappointing. Wal-Mart is only able to get away with its very low wages and low promotion rate because so many of their employees qualify for public assistance with health care (Medicaid, plus they hire the elderly in high rates who come with Medicare, SS, and a host of other government benefits). If McDonald's is not in compliance with the same laws every other employer is, and given the wages their employees earn already, it's fair to say a lot of these jobs will still be people taking Medicaid or some other form of government insurance.

Yeah it's in the 3.30-3.50 range around me but back home I think it's more like 3.75-3.90.

'Exclusively'? Whose interviews are they turning down?
#180 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Duff McKagan is Bieber fan » 743 weeks ago
I kind of think pissing on the legacy is a very rock n roll thing to do. At this point, what's ballsier for an old school rocker to say than that he likes Bieber?
