People definitely hate Kevin. I dont think the guy is bad though. Not only is he following the toughest act ever, but he doesnt have the luxury of having called any important winning games yet.

When your team is winning your team is the best, announcer is the best, jerseys are the coolest, 4th line center is a hero, coach is a hero, owner is the man, fans are #1, your arena is #1. When your losing, total opposite.

I kinda think he just sucks.

That guy better not take over full time, I don't know that my Sabres heart can take it.

As it stands now, I can't stomach him during intermission. I rarely bother watching the games when he's doing play by play. I can't take it. He's awful

I would rather listen to Mush Mouth call a game than Kevin "Fat Tongue" Sylvester.

I kinda think he just sucks.

Agreed. He has this stupid growl he does all the time that bothers me

Ok then, Bring in Mark Jeanerette.

I tend to think RJ is overrated. He definately isn't what he once was. I'm ready for RJ to retire, as long as Sylvester isn't his replacement

*HAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRSH (in Sylvester)

Hes just as bad as Kevin. We need someone else once RJ is done

At least you guys don't have Chico.

Ok everyone thinks Kevin sucks. Who should call the games? Should we draft a guy from announcer college?

Ok then, Bring in Mark Jeanerette.
- Buffalo--Sabres

Brian Duff, please. Calls it straight, but does a good job.

believe it or not, I'd take him over Sylvester. There's much better options than any of them though

Ole Thin haired Pominville.

I'd be fine with that. I don't need a comedy routine. It was cute when I was younger, now I just want someone who knows the game. Schtick not needed

I think that's the plan.

I agree. To me his act is played out. I know that is blasphemy around here, but I'm ready for him to go too.

Hes tied with Stafford in goals, and is 1 behind Roy...

Sad, very very very very Sad.

Yeah, how you going to follow RJ up with more shtick? It's like Richard Pryor was the last act, good idea to put out a solid musical number next.

They had a guy fill in a couple times over the last couple years that was pretty good. I can't remember his name though. Was he from the Fan or TSN...damn my feeble brain

I think that's the plan.
- dadeadhead

That'd be the smart move.

I'm starting to wonder if loyalty is the currency of the realm these days though.

By the way, that is a stupid way to run a sports franchise.

Brian Duff.

hey, what are you guys hearing as far as paul gausted to the hawks? hearing a few rumblings here?

Sabres fans are so fickle.


Once they start winning, you guys wont give a dam who's calling the game.

First for me. We'd get a 3rd or 4th rounder for him, but it would signal the tank.
