It’s the last day of February, that should be a holiday in itself. Worst month of the year.

Preachin’ the TRUTH, brotha.

Last night wasn’t very good, but I’m a sucker for the movie business and the Oscars are my annual excuse to down a bag of Wavy Lays and a tub of Helluva Good French Onion dip.

I like the oscars too. Every year I have a bunch of people over, and we have a good time. We all draw a name out of a hat and everytime that person appears on screen you drink. I got fucked last night b/c I drew Anne Hathaway. But it’s always a good time.

But for most of the night, Franco looked disinterested blazed out of his mind. Can’t really blame him

/WINNING

Without him, the Sabres wouldn’t even be in 9th place right now. Very glad we don’t have Afinegenov anymore.

Maybe TBL finally put up the velvet rope and we’re all that’s left.

Very true. I like Franco. He’s always great on SNL, but I think the writers for the Oscars just suck. Not much for him to work with.

Tim Connolly can be traded for all I care after the season (we sorely miss Derek Roy). The Niedermayer signing was a pipe dream and has been disappointing. Buffalo needs to sign a high level player overall and not an aging has-been. Enough of the cheap free agents. Take a chance!

So am I.

Vlad, the crop of UFA’s this summer is pretty weak in terms of defenseman.

I you look back at the contracts those two signed, be thankful the Sabres didn’t match.

Yet they did match with Vanek…..

I am glad the Sabres did match the Oilers offer for Vanek. Totally worth it. Sabres desperately need a backup goalie. Lalime has been godawful this year and Miller is going to wear out if he doesn’t get a breather.

What free agents do you think Buffalo will pursue in the offseason? I think they should look at top pair guy to play with Meyers.

It’s crazy, but the ratings have been off the charts the last couple years. They’ll keep doing it it people watch.

To be honest, I actually like Franco a lot. It just seemed like he had no material to work with last night.

I you look back at the contracts those two signed, be thankful the Sabres didn’t match.

/Briere, 8 years $52M
//Drury, 5 years, $32.3M
