In other news not widely reported, off-duty (insert any occupation here, except police officer or pro athletes) were involved in all kinds of crimes. No film at 11.

Here is a better video courtesy of TMZ.

Not looking good for McCoy.

You can clearly see McCoy is heavily involved .

Terms like battery & aggravated assault come to mind when viewing this.

From the video i watched it appears that he threw at least one punch but the majority was his friends

Michael Pachla: Sabres host Cats. Of the 2016 draft, Sabres' prospects, and ESPN
- Michael Pachla



ESPN is going to be the first in a long line of sports networks that is going to fall victim to the albatross that is the pro sports television contract. They pay an exorbitant amount for the rights to broadcast the NFL, NBA, and Major League Baseball (not to mention other events like Tennis and Golf majors) that they have to promote the living hell out of it. Thus, you have to add the quirky promos, shows, and whatnot in order to justify the money spent in order to get viewers and advertisers. However, it's getting to the point where the revenue brought in isn't justifying the costs and that's where ESPN is falling. Unfortunately, going back to what made the channel great in the first place puts the network in even more of a hole. ESPN is partially to blame for this, but I think the majority of it goes to the fact that sports has become a multi-million dollar enterprise. Not only can you feed a third-world country luxuriously with the kind of money being thrown around, the amount of money that is spent requires changes in order to make it worthwhile.

Gonna show the family what a Buffalo fish fry is like when we come up in June.

We're gonna go all tourist for the trip..figure we'll be like the millions who come down to this neck of the woods and plan some kind of itinerary (though, for people who come down here, that itinerary is usually filled with: Go to the Beach)

Here in Rochester, year round on Friday evenings, one can purchase deep fried beer battered cod, with a side of french fried potatoes and cole slaw, generally with a potato bun (no butter), and tartar sauce.

Phaneuf would have made the sabres better, for the garbage that went back to toronto i wonder if murray was in on that at all. Although im sure the leafs not retaining any salary would have been a deal breaker for both sides.

Ottawa has to push for the playoffs now. They are betting on phaneuf being able to curb the massive drop off when karlsson isnt on the ice. This deal turns them into definite buyers going towards the deadline.

Maybe we get that first round favor back from ottawa for mcginn.

Hosehead is the best. My New-ish (not Jewish) dog looks a lot like Hosehead. Just gotta put a big white stripe on her back and take her to Octoberfest.

Can't highlight on my tablet, but Sens would be sooooooo all-in if they gave up their top 2 picks for Dion and McGinn....not sure that gets them into the playoffs, but that's about the only return I hope to get for 88 if he is moved.

Lower body injury. He missed yesterday's practice as well. Bylsma said he hoped he just needed a maintenance day, but he's not ready to go yet.
