Pro Bowl Replacements; My Sabres Game Highlights/Opinions; and Other Team's (Besides Buffalo) Hottness Factors

As I sit here watching the Super Bowl and being a little p.o.ed because the Steelers are winning half way through the 3rd period, I'm thinking about my favorite football team, the Bills. There hasn't been news about the Bills lately because well they didn't make the post season, so much hasn't been going on. Hopefully next year at this time I will be watching the Bills kick some major arse and win Super Bowl #44. Something that sort of irked me though is that Marshawn Lynch is replacing someone to play in the Pro-Bowl. I'm glad the Bills will be represented, but in all honesty, Fred Jackson was a much better runningback for the Bills this year than Lynch and he didn't commit a hit and run. I like Lynch and all, but they seem to make more of a fuss about him than necessary. He's not producing the yards for him to be getting that much hype. Yet, Fred Jackson came out of nowwhere without any hype and produced the yards. I just think he should go and represent the Bills instead of Marshawn. Just my opinion.

I haven't been able to watch a Sabres game in awhile due to my schedule and for the fact that I don't get cable, so I can't watch the games unless I go out. To recap my opinions on the games I was unable to watch. Versus Edmonton: Us 10 goals, them 2, Drew Stafford winning Winston the Game Pigeon because of his hat trick and then proclaiming that he was having a sleepover with Winston... classic and awesome, with the talent we have on the Sabres team, this is what they should be doing more often. Versus Calgary: Us 2 goals, them 5, media blaming Miller for lost.... Not cool, what happened? The night before we had ten goals! It's like the Sabres like to play Jekyll and Hyde with their ability, one day hot next not and the media blaming Miller, def. not cool because hockey is a team sport and if the team loses it's not just one players fault, it's the entire teams fault. And if the team wins, it's not just one player who one if for the team, it is the entire team. Enough said. Versus Phoenix: Shut-out! We had two goals, Nathan Paetsch seemed to be stirring the pot, Danny Paille scores, Patty Kaleta back.... from I can read from the stats and highlights, this game = awesome! Miller with his 4th shout out of the year! Congrats! Paille scoring, yes! Patty Kaleta back! I want a Kaleta Collision! And from what I can read Nathan Paetsch and Dan Carcillo were not being the best of friends during that game. Misconducts and fighting majors, wow Paetsch, someone was having a fiesty evening, but I rather see that than have a player just blend into the background and you can't remember they were even on the ice.

Since I am a big Buffalo Sports fan and tend to loathe other teams, I have neglected that some other teams have some major hotness factors. Like for instance I'm watching the Super Bowl and I've missed how hot Kurt Warner or Adrian Wilson on the Cards are or maybe because all you can ever see is a helmet with a big puff of black curly hair, but Troy Palamolu is freakin' gorgeous. I would think he was amazingly gorgeous if he cut his hair. Hockey wise, Ryan Miller's friend John-Michael Liles is smoking, how in the world did I miss that and does he ever visit Miller in Buffalo? Because using a saying that Harley uses quite often, I would be all over that like white on rice.

Don't Forget My Blue Cheese, That Would Be Goalie Interference If I Do Say So Myself, and All That Jazz!

I haven't written a blog in eons and I feel so much has happened in Sabresland and 1 Bills Drive, but there is not enough hours in the day to write about them, so I will only touch on the this I remember and want to comment on.

First and foremost, The Honk the Vote! Gaustad in '09! campaign. Me and Harley did wear them to the bar that evening and the only one that really took note was the bartender who are slowly becoming friends with because we are becoming regulars at this particular pub because we like to watch the Sabres games there. He looked at our shirts and asked if we made them, I replied, yes with masking tape and spray paint and he laughed and walked away, I hollered after him "Don't forget my Blue Cheese!". I like to dip my fries in Blue Cheese, it's one of my many weird eating habits. So, I don't think taking the campaign to the streets has gone quite as well as anticipated, but hey maybe our bartender friend went online and voted for Goose. Every vote helps. Sad to say though our candidate for who our campaign revolves around is currently injured *sad face* with an upper body injury. Hopefully, he will get well soon.

The video below is highlights from the December 17th game against New Jersey. I know we lost, but I like Goose's screw you goal in third after New Jersey got their fifth goal, but goalie interference should have been called and it shouldn't have counted. Goose got a goal right after that and it looked like take that! Look are 4:18 into the video. Also, I love how Goose was ready to throw down the gloves with Martin 2 second left in the game. AWESOME!

So, the number of votes Goose is up to today is *drum roll please* 377. My new objective for this campaign is to break a 1,000. That would be fierce!

I think Miller is taking some fashion advice from Goose....

I know, I know, this is a promo for Miller's Catwalk for Charity and I think that is Kaleta on the left, but who is the guy on the right? I couldn't figure it out. Is a hockey player or now? I like how miller is trying to be all 1920s Chicago, I don't think Buffalo was every gangster like that. All I can think of from this pic is one of my favorite movies and musicals "Chicago". I wonder which one of the Sabres would be Billy Flynn? My money's on Derek Roy. It just seems fitting, just one of those things in life you know is right but you just can't explain why.
