Gift horse meet nothing

The Buffalo Sabres are 8-0 to start the new season. It's been such an amazing ride that I shall enjoy until ... For a while I was nervous and doing the Buffalo fan thing ("jeez I hope they stop talking about us because it'll jinx us" or "the guys will start believing their own hype"). But then I realized that reacting like that is chickenshit. A champion has an air and a directed focus and given the Sabres start (in the wake of heady pre-season predictions), they've got it, too.

So game on to all comers. I'm gonna enjoy this.

a great ride indeed. at least there's something to cheer about, since losman can't seem to get anything done for the bills. i laughed so hard at kotalik's goal last nite.

And tonight, Les Habs are Les Done...

Max, Roy, and Vanek are unbelievable, aren't they?

Oh, btw Mike, I started a blog about my plans to return to college at 34. You can read about my impending doom by clicking on my name I think.

Oh yeah. Les Habs Les Lost.

Perhaps Mr. Niinimaa should mind his P's and Q's...
