AHH yes…yet another reason why I don’t like Buffalo fans….go back to your own blogs already and leave pucksandbooks alone…he was just making his observations of the game and deserves to have his own opinion and quite frankly I have to agree with him!

“On the one hand, you have to admire the loyalty they exhibit removed far and in many cases by many years from home.”
And to think, I thought that the post was quite kind to the Sabres fans who attended the game, not mentioning those who continued to cheer during the moment of silence before the National Anthem (one game last year they cheered DURING the National Anthem) or the ones with the t-shirts printed with “Caps fans, shut the PUCK up” or the one with the sign saying “Buffalo OWNS DC” or the ones sitting next to me who felt it necessary to explain to me that DC wasn’t a hockey town and the game was more of a social event for us, thats why we don’t understand we need to get into our seats during breaks in play, when a small group didn’t move fast enough.
Two sentences about how the loyalty of Buffalo fans might better serve a failing economy seems to be no big deal, since he could have just said “why don’t you just go home.” (much more mean-spirited) As a friend of mine from NY said, it must be the southern hospitality or DC diplomacy – those Sabres fans from Friday night would have never made it out of Midtown Manhattan in one piece.

Just got this from Mirtle’s blog: “Columbus is the second smallest American market in the NHL, larger than only Buffalo, and has less of a population base to draw from than even the Sabres, who rely heavily on Canadian patrons.” http://mirtle.blogspot.com/2007/12/attendance-woes-in-columbus.html
All this bitching from people that can’t sell out their house when the Leafs come to Buffalo. That place looks and sounds like the Air Canada Centre when they are in town. I hope you enjoy that as much as we enjoy your company. Wait, since most of you don’t live in Buffalo anymore, you wouldn’t know.

Maybe it was the buffalo fan carrying the Capitals blanket, or the one in the section who kept using it to wipe his armpits during Buffalo cheers. Then When I said Buffalo Sucks the sesitivity of the man in front of me who said HEY how bout some positive remarks. To which I responded LETS GO CAPS, SABRES SUCK! hahaha TWO Words for Sabre Fans…..BRETT HULL……no one had an answer for that when I yelled it. haha

I?¢‚Ç¨‚Ñ¢ll refrain from pointing out the obvious and noting that pucksandbooks already responded a couple of times here.
If the flippant and mean-spirited comments here from pucksandbooks are considered “intelligent and respectful discussion about the ideas published on this blog”, then we sincerely apologize. We were merely off-put by the disconnect between the seriousness with which pucksandbooks attacked residents and ex-residents of Western NY for having the unmitigated gall to attend a hockey game rather than solving the area’s decades-old civic problems and the glib manner in which he replied to the well-reasoned and well-written comments from readers. (And do you, as a blog, really believe that “Buffalo readers” are less valid readers than “Caps readers”? If so, then we agree with Katebits: Lesson learned.)

EGGNOG:
4 egg yolks
1/3 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
1 pint whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
3 ounces bourbon
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
4 egg whites*
In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the egg yolks until they lighten in color. Gradually add the 1/3 cup sugar and continue to beat until it is completely dissolved. Add the milk, cream, bourbon and nutmeg and stir to combine.
Place the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat to soft peaks. With the mixer still running gradually add the 1 tablespoon of sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
Whisk the egg whites into the mixture. Chill and serve.

I’ll refrain from pointing out the obvious and noting that pucksandbooks already responded a couple of times here. But apparently he’s expected to be online all day and night, just waiting for someone to post a comment so he can respond. I think that says more about those who criticize him than anything else.
All I can say is, I think it’s great when the Leafs play in Buffalo and their fans invade HSBC Arena. I only wish they played there more often.
