Brandon Meriweather responds to criticism about as well as you'd imagine.
"To be honest, you've just got to go low now. You gotta end people's career. U gotta tear people's ACL's. You gotta tear peoples ACL's . Mess up people's knees. You can't him them high anymore. You've just got to go low. I'm hitting defenseless running backs. I've never heard of a defenseless running back."

How much Molson? Several cases?, A whole truckload? Yeah, I know. It's spelled differently, but maybe such a deal could be worth it.

The Sabres just pantsed the Islanders.
The latest in a proud line of franchises (and goaltenders) to do so.

Well, the Sabres do have Miller & Moulson now, if we can get Keith out of Chicago.....

Now the Sabres can focus on messing up the draft picks they have accumulated.

Managing Man United is easier than Moyes is making it.
questioned why Napoli was holding Wong at first base, only to eat their words
I didn't get McCarver's complaint when there was only one out: you have a double play possibility with a sinkerball pitcher, why not keep the runner honest? But I don't really get the value of holding Wong with two outs. It worked, but it seemed curious to me (not that I know a lot of baseball strategy).
