Pete: Welcome to Listen Up! Well, well. Our first ever interview with a rook. Well, almost. You were a noob. We'll call you a regular now.
Pete: So, what brought you to the Range? How often are you on this site? What do you like best? Least?
Sabres244: You know, just a google search looking for some places where I could find Buffalo fans, I visited a few sites and I thought that this was the best. I'm on pretty often, the winters been kind of bad, I'm sure as the weather gets warmer and I get back to working full time I'll be on less. My favorite part of The Range is the shoutbox and the regulars in it, they're funny guys and fun to talk to. My least is when people complain about the Bills and Sabres, I don't like whiners, kind of odd considering I'm a bit of a whiner myself. Oh and no offense to the old dudes out there, but I'm sick of the old dudes coming at me because of my age, telling me to "comeback when my balls drop" You guys are funny, I hope you realize how mature you sound saying that or how mature you are when you argue with the "kids" like me and other here.
Pete: Ass, boobs, or legs?
Sabres244: Tough question, all 3 are nice, but sometimes seeing nice long, tan legs is awesome, I mean you can barley see an ass and boobs, you never know what they may look like with a shirt off, could be nasty.
Pete: How about them Sabres? What's your honest take of the rest of the season? How do you envision it playing out?
Sabres244: I won't like, I kind of hope we slip to 2nd place and not have as much pressure as we would as a 1 seed. We're slumping right now, bad bounces and everything, we're also beat up, I'm sure we'll be fine when all the guys comeback. I'm positive we'll finish the season strong just like last season.
Pete: The Chris Drury cheapshot by Ottawa. Why was it a cheapshot? Do you think Ruff did the right thing by sending out the goon squad?
Sabres244: Yes, it was a cheapshot, I don't what the NHL says. Shots to the head like that and the one on Kaberle are just terrible for the game. Neil deserved 10 games and Janssen deserved more.The goon part was fine by Ruff, Murray is the dumb one for sending out his stars when he knew what was going to happen.
Pete: Do you agree with the Biron trade? Why or why not?
Sabres244: I do agree with it. I'm gonna miss Marty, he was a fan favorite and always had a good attitude, but I'd rather us get a pick for him and go for the cup this season rather then us get nothing for him in the off season. Now if you asked if I like him going to Philly, I'd say no.
Pete: What's your take on the Willis trade?
Sabres244: Willis huh? I liked Willis up until what he said after the trade. His happy-go-lucky attitude made him a very likable person. I met him a few years back, funny guy. As for the trade, I love it, got 3 picks for a guy who was becoming a cancer in the room. This deal will turn out to be a steal for the Bills in the long run.
Pete: Who is our first pick in the draft?
Sabres244: I have a strange feeling we're gonna trade down and draft Paul Pozlousny out of Penn St. We need a LB in a bad way. My best friend goes to Penn St, so I watch their games a lot, this guy is a beast, reminds me a lot of Urlacher, I hope we draft him I'll be the first in line for his jersey.
Pete: Who is the hottest woman on the planet? Pics please?
Sabres244: Jessica Alba.. no man would ever say no to her.. http://www.vh1.com/sitewide/flipbooks/img/shows/big_in_2005/nominees/breakthrough/jessica_alba1.jpg
Carrie Underwood is not bad herself...http://www.nationalledger.com/artman/uploads/carrie_underwood_tony_romo_001.jpg
Pete: What is the Bills greatest weakness now and why?
Sabres244: Defense. We've lost a lot, but return a lot of the same players alsom I hope we can address that in Free Agency and the Draft. Our offense is going to better than it was last season and well our special teams is always at the top and I don't see that changing.
Pete: Is Nashville better than the Sabres now? Why or why not?
Sabres244: LOL no, don't make me get the box score from December. I know they got Forsberg bid deal, he'll get hurt again. The Sabres have too much depth (when healthy) for any team handle. I don't want to be a homer, but yes I'm going to be one, 7-2? that's not even close, I don't if they got Forsberg, he's not gonna change that game no matter what. Sure Mason was in, Vokoun wouldn't have done better either, didn't Mason have one of the best SV%'s when Vokoun was down. The writing is on the wall, Buffalo is better.
Pete: Do you think losing Nate Clements is going to hurt our secondary in a big way?
Sabres244: Yes it will and anybody that disagrees is dumb. Nate is a great CB, yes a great CB. In man coverage he is unbeliveable. There's nobody on the roster at the current time that will be able to do the same things Nate did.
Pete: I like the Dockery signing. Are Whittle and Langston scrub signings?
Sabres244: Walker could be good, he played on some pretty terrible Oakland teams. He's a great run blocker though. The thing that scares me is that he's going to wear #68 and play RT. The last #68 at RT makes me wanna throw up. As for Whittle, I don't know too much about him, McNally does and he's the coach, not me so I hope he's more than a depth player. No matter what our offensive line is going to better.
Pete: Stanely Cup finals. Who's in it, what the outcome of the series?
Sabres244: The East will be represented by the Sabres. The only team that scares me is New Jersey and I have feeling they won't be around to stop us. Ottawa does scare me a little, but we have too much depth for anybody in the East. In the West, man thats tough but I believe that the old wise men in Detroit will prevail. I think Lidstrom and CO. can neutralize the and team out there, and well if Dom is healthy he can win a game himself. Buffalo vs Detroit, Buffalo in 6.
Pete: Any final thoughts or comments?
Sabres244: Just want to thank those who voted for me for Rookie of The Range, sorry smashing. Also a shout out to ,BR11, Connolly19(useless guys) Hurls, Scary Good. Sukie, Shotgun, Laxbandit, even Guy and the rest of the shoutbox regs, if I forgot anybody, sorry. Last but not least to the Admins and mods and anybody that run this site for making it better than any other board out there.
Actully lastly...LET'S GO BUFFALO!
Editor's Note: The Interviewee took the liberty of italicizing his comments, which nearly disqualified him from the interview. But since I am too lazy to either do another interview now, or take out the italics, I'll let it slide.
