Kyle Smith looks like a cross between the
lead singer of Coldplay and the gay guy who
played Doogie Howser . This makes him understandably angry about life, and he takes that genetic scorn out on movies for the New York Post. "Set your bosoms to ...

by Ryan There are a lot of good things coming out of Tropicana Field these days. The Rays are an exciting team and have the division lead; and even as a Sox fan I appreciate the talent on the roster. However, I have to agree with Fire Joe Morgan and say that this is f$%king stupid. This is Dr. Stat, who fills fans' minds with "useless information" and makes them incapable of enjoying the ...

Just a quick programming note.... The Most Insignificant Sabre of the Last Decade series will continue tomorrow. Family obligations prevented me from posting the last two days. Plus, it's a holiday weekend, why would you be sitting at your computer reading a blog anyway?

by Rich I was looking through the results of today's MLB action over at the Four-Letter, and checked on the box score and recap of the Brewers game to see if former 'Cane Ryan Braun did anything today. Well, Braun went 1-3 with a walk and a strikeout, a performance which was notable only because the walk immediately preceded Prince Fielder's walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth. Brewers ...

by Ryan To those of you who purchased one of these: We here in the Roost have a gift for you: With a seam ripper you're just a few minutes of work away from a shiny new blank jersey. No need to drop another few bills on a new uni when you can just recycle. Perhaps you can re-invest a few numbers and get one of these bad boys: This is just another lesson for us all: always buy jerseys ...

Craig Rivet
Here's a transcription of the Sabres press conference today regarding the Steve Bernier and Craig Rivet trades. Also some info on where the team stands with Ryan Miller, Maxim Afinogenov and Jason Smith. I'll be interjecting briefly here and there. Media: Can you fill us in, so far, on the two transactions today? Is that it for today? Darcy Regier: That’s it for today. We’ve obviously ...

We were looking for that secondary deal and it looks like this is it. The Buffalo Sabres acquired veteran defenseman Craig Rivet from the San Jose Sharks on Friday. The Sharks sent the 33-year-old veteran and a seventh-round selection in the 2010 Entry Draft to the Sabres in exchange for second-round selections in the 2009 and 2010 Drafts. No word on if that second round pick is the one the ...

By Chris Well this certainly came as a surprise while I was eating lunch today: Buffalo, NY (WGR 550) -- The Buffalo Sabres traded RW Steve Bernier to the Vancouver Canucks Saturday, in exchange for a second round draft pick in 2010 and a third round pick (Los Angeles’ selection) in 2009. This move certainly looks like one that sets in motion the wheels to another deal. For what, though, ...

Brian Campbell
by Ryan This was me at about 1pm yesterday, just before I got a my CT scan. Thankfully they told me it is "only" a concussion, with no further damage or bleeding. However, I was advised not to play any sports for seven days, or whenever the symptoms go away. I was also given "The Talk" by about eight nurses concerning the use of helmets. I'll take their advice to heart, but mostly I'm ...

by Ryan So I'm not the biggest basketball fan, but unlike Jon and Chris , I'm trying to get better. Rich is a big basketball fan, and I'm slowly trying to follow the NBA close enough to actually post about it. The guys over at USRT seem to be one of the few local blogs that post about the NBA, and I'd love to get a better feel for the league and maybe start, you know... talking about it come ...

by Ryan So it's official: I'm concussed. With
that in mind, let's go with some quick hits

By Chris I found out when I got into my car, just leaving work and turning on the radio. When I got home, I got the full details . 5:04PM Buffalo signs UFA goaltender Patrick Lalime to a 2 year deal worth $2-million He's the reliable veteran the Sabres were looking for and he's not that expensive. Considering how weak the goaltending free agent class is this year (and the entire class ...

by Ryan Here is what you need to know about us and free agency: - I may or may not have a concussion from a hockey hit delivered by a guy named "Pancakes". No, I'm not making that up. - Thanks to thepensblog , my phone will scream "HOSSA!HOSSA!HOSSA!HOSSA!" after every text message today. After that, it's the Sabres goal horn. - If you want to chat about the events of today, you can IM us at ...

by Ryan The Sabres will do nothing in
free agency as usual Second result. It may not
be the general consensus here in the blog, but it's a fear that certainly hits home. Let's face it people, last year freaking sucked. It was soul crushing, mind ...
