Your afraid to watch, your hat and everything you believe in would become a moot point.

Of course, being wrong AGAIN.

GO (frank) YOURSELF DRUNKARD

Has anyone asked mayor black female yet why she's allowed her city to be overrun by terrorists multiple times in an 8-month period from June 2020 - January 2021? Did they follow up with why she chose to paint one terrorist logo on the street in 9-foot letters in front of the Whitehouse?

Also, who released and opened the magnetically sealed doors? And why won’t Nancy release all of the video of that day…

Nothing to see here…

Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser were both warned about the security situation on January 6th and both of them turned down National Guard troops at the US Capitol that day.

Mayor Muriel Bowser turned down thousands of National Guard troops at the Capitol on January 6 for political reasons.

Chris Wray’s FBI also refused to notify the Trump administration and his cabinet secretaries that they believed there could be a situation like the mass protests at the Capitol that took place.

Dude, he still believes in the Russian Hoax.
Baa Baa Cementhead....needs to be lead around by the nose.

Have they asked Nancy Pelosi why she delayed voting on the SCJ Protection. Why did she not want the National Guard. Treasonous.

Maybe the Committe could investigate this Admin's numerous blunders and Brandon's fit for office.

Is Luke Tuch even good?
- Powerslave


Yes his numbers don't tell the whole story.

Power forwards regress in college imo and show improvement the next level as they develop

Trading OLO sends a bad message.

Although I would like him traded for a different style player I agree. Trading him shows team that hard work and making it doesn’t pay off in the Sabres org

College certainly helps But I don't like how they handle power forwards.

A lot of people Look at stats to determine a future.

When you break down a player I look for certain things .

- Reaction time and recovery During gameplay
-Never stop moving your feet
- Blaming others And looking around
- Fast shift changes
helping out teammates and gaining knowledge from coaches

What's the going back? Mtl took him with a mid second and he hasn't progressed, so value can't be more than that. I mean tops would be our 3rd right?

Sure, also want to see if his skating is improving, can he get the hands and brain working better together.

Something is going on Behind the scenes at BU with handling top Prospects.

But His speed and his ability to break down plays have been good the 2nd half he showed Scouts why he should have been considered a top 20 pick

All of the above sounds like reasons to really like players like Nazar and Howard in the upcoming draft.

What makes you believe he couldn't be considered a top 20 pick when his Career is revisited in 4 years ?

Luke Tuch at the time of draft, as well as right this very second, has not shown a top 20 ability. Sorry.

I can't tell the future. If he so turns into what should have been a top 20 pick, then, superb call. But today I don't buy what you're selling.
