I mean, this place is Wild Wild West.

I've shown my hand. I am an honest to god troll and no, you never will know if I am serious or not when I post certain things or how many alts I have (here's a secret: none) and yes I will fly off the rails at you, but for good reason.

You don't bring anyone's family into it. That's a rule of life, plain and simple. I've had numerous people cross that line with me. It's not cool. It's me on here. No one else. But people will always attack the ones who aren't here to defend themselves. The strong prey on the weak. You simply do not go there.

However, I will always talk Buffalo sports. I do always talk Buffalo sports. The Sabres are abhorrible. It's hard to talk about them. I (frank)ing love the Bills. Always have and always will.

However, we all still try with the Sabres. But it's hard.

Literally one person for two days straight attacked everyone who tried to talk about the literal topic of the blog. He admitted to it. He admitted to bringing up politics to antagonize people. Multiple people, including myself, including the guy who wrote the god damn blog, took issue with it.

But just ask Buff36. It's me who keeps people away. It's only me who "bickers back and forth for 5 minutes" with him over "fruit roll ups" and not him actually bullying people, including the man who wrote the blog, for talking about the topic of the blog.

I go hard in the mother(frank)ing paint. But I have never attacked the people writing for this site. I have never attacked their writings. I have never attacked their families.

Yet somehow, homie calling Jessie Pegula a horse-face, but not actually having the balls to say "Jessie Pegula is a horse-face" keeps the hits coming to this blog, but me telling Fitz he is Crib Death in human form, which he is, is why "no one wants to post here" except, you know, for the ONE THOUSAND POSTS IN EVERY BLOG.

Now, see Alex Ovechkin...i wouldn't recommend punching him because he's going to kick your ass afterward. Stick to the downtrodden like Ottawa.

Or, Sid, because he's going to spear you.

I have no inside information aside from I know what this job 'pays', if you want to call it pay, and how much time and energy is invested in putting out quality blogs.

There are also promises made that are not kept.

I would think that would be understood going in though. The only possible renumerative quality of being the Blogger on hockeybuzz is the possibility someone from a more established venture notices you and offers you a position. In that sense, Hank has always put out quality work, and I hope someone does notice him.

Gonna be a interesting offseason, don't think you see Mack or McCaffrey unless drastic cuts are made, they would cost 47mill themselves.

Unfortunately, the bold is not true, as the numbers are often manipulated, and as I said, promises are not kept.

It would be a shame, we have already lost a couple quality bloggers. Hank puts out some good stuff.

If you take this 'job', you essentially have to want to do it for free and little aspirations of landing a writing job somewhere else.

You also need a lot of free time in order to pump out quality content, unless you want to mail it in and just post garbage blogs with little effort just for clicks.

Without question.

Compare what Hank puts out in terms of consistency and quality in relation to the other bloggers here and it becomes painfully obvious.

“Both Craig and Tokarski have had injuries that nobody knows but them,” Granato added. “No doctor, no medical advisor; it’s just how they feel and only they know how they feel with what they’re dealing with. So, yeah, they remain day to day because of that, and we sit and wait for them. … It really is, there is a mystery to all of this.”

Adams is getting extremely effective with asset management on a budget…



Anderson has full use of his body while Tokarski is all brains.

You brought up politics to deter conversation from the biggest story about the Sabres right now?

On a Sabres blog. And you're happy about that decision.

What they don't realize is no one reads their little circle jerks but them. All they do is drive everyone else away from the site, which is pretty disrespectful to our blogger, that works hard and does a very good job providing us with regular content.

between that and the poopty product on the ice for over a decade its a double edged sword

I have no idea what that Granato word salad I posted means, so...maybe?
