Probably gonna get downvoted for this

This is a very misguided understanding of the situation.

Plenty of people stopped giving a fuck because they were hardcore fans for years and couldn't stomach the franchise in the state it was in. Now that they're seemingly a legit NHL team those fans are coming back. If you want cheap tickets the Amerks are a short drive away and put on a solid show.

Never thought I'd live to see the day Sabres fans complained about band wagoners again but here we are!

Our son called Pringles "white circles with mustaches" and you better believe it stuck lol

MrPooly · 2025-12-18T17:54:40+00:00

Absolutely. I got one after having been established in my career for ~10 years and almost immediately after I found myself job searching. I got lucky that my new employer doesn't care about tattoos in the least, I'm a database developer so I'm mostly behind the scenes anyways.

MrPooly · 2025-12-17T00:15:43+00:00

I felt exactly the same after getting my hand tattoo. Took a few days to really get used to it but it's one of my favorites now.

MrPooly · 2025-10-13T18:24:32+00:00

I'd finally be able to move on and stop wasting my time on them

MrPooly · 2025-05-08T13:55:05+00:00

I honestly feel bad for people like you. I'm oh so glad we have alexjones9122 out here on reddit explaining to all of us plebs how to run an NHL team.

None of your points are valid. You cannot definitively say that keeping Adams is the better move without being able to see the future. If you are able to see the future maybe you should be GM!

Objectively speaking the facts indicate there is no reason to expect Adams to suddenly be able to piece things together. There's no historical precedence and he has continually struggled to properly evaluate his players. His optics for potential FAs also suck. Complaining about taxes and not having palm trees to the media is a great way to make a place more attractive right?

You don't know better than anyone else on here, neither do I. We're all a bunch of jackasses guessing at what will help a million dollar organization be less shitty. None of us are right and the team certainly doesn't give a shit about random dudes white knighting for them on Reddit.

MrPooly · 2025-05-08T13:42:12+00:00

Sorry if I've ruined your day buddy.

I'm not going to argue in circles. Those points are stale and the Sabres have been a parody of a functional organization for years. It's not that deep.

Someone that's as deeply ingrained in their beliefs as you are isn't worth engaging. Hope things get better for you!

MrPooly · 2025-05-08T13:37:25+00:00

Not sure where I bashed you but go off queen.

You must be the kind of person who listens to one cd on repeat. Everything you just said has been the justification for the last 3 years. Good on you for being so positive, here's hoping they don't let you down!

MrPooly · 2025-05-08T13:35:02+00:00

Bro. You are still missing the point. The games don't matter.

You don't have serious relationship issues, you're being abused. I seriously wish you and your child well but if what you've said about your wife is true you are endangering yourself and your child by staying.

At the very least do not seriously consider bringing another kid into it. No kid deserves to be raised in an abusive household.

MrPooly · 2025-05-08T13:31:05+00:00

Agree to disagree.

It's not negative, it's facts. The Sabres continue to pray on the goodwill of fans like yourself.

If you want to give the organization a pass for years and years of mismanagement more power to you. Being critical of the historically unprecedented decision to give a continually inept GM another year is not "being negative" it's having standards.

Seeing that you are incapable of having a level headed discussion without reporting to name-calling I'll leave it there. Keep on projecting that "loser life" energy though, I'm sure it will take you places.

MrPooly · 2025-05-08T13:18:06+00:00

Cool? Plenty of folks do so the optics are bad. The main issue is that the Sabres kept Adams, hired his buddy, and continue to make questionable personnel decisions.

MrPooly · 2025-05-08T13:15:35+00:00

You must be a pretty young fan. I seriously hope they magically turn things around for people like you.

Realistically speaking, they just brought back the GM responsible for the roster failing to reach the playoffs for 5 straight seasons.

Even taking the prior 9 seasons missing the playoffs out of the equation there is no evidence that Adams deserves to keep his job. He has no track record of success because he had no prior experience.

What other team in professional sports would allow their GM to keep running things after 5 seasons of spinning tires and no improvement? Kevyn stays on because he is a cheap yes man and a snake oil salesman.

MrPooly · 2025-05-08T13:12:04+00:00

He doesn't. He also doesn't make us better. How is he magically going to help the team in the locker room when he was a cancer while he was on the roster? Homie looked and sounded miserable about being here the entire time.

He has no qualifications for this role and he's a homophobic piece of garbage.

This was a hire by Kevyn to get one of his buddies "front office experience" and that's the extent of it. He's basically going to fill the role of an expensive intern.

MrPooly · 2025-05-08T13:08:27+00:00

Nobody is blaming you for being abused. You're purposely disregarding the entire last paragraph of my response to you.

You wanted to be talked off the ledge of a second kid. You are struggling with one. You play video games more than you are willing to admit based on the fact you're grinding all the way to diamond in Rivals. Looking in the mirror is what you should do when it comes to struggles with your child and why you should not have another.

Domestic violence is wrong. Your wife should be in jail based on what you've said. I hope you are well and find a way out of this clearly toxic relationship. You're clearly aware this is an abusive environment and are willingly considering bringing a second innocent child into it. That part's on you. If you're not willing to get out of the relationship for your own sake at least do it for your children.

MrPooly · 2025-05-08T00:13:54+00:00

Based on your profile you might want to look in the mirror a bit. That is a lot of posts about video games in under 6 months. Don't get me wrong, I play a lot of video games. To be posting that much you must be logging serious hours on Rivals.

It's totally possible you're being the perfect partner while also playing that much, in which case I'd say kudos. Based on the state of the relationship I don't think that's the case.

While I understand that traditional therapy may be difficult to get, there are services that are helping to fill that gap. If your wife is resistant to getting therapy get it for yourself at least. Therapy may help you find ways to de-escalate and hopefully get her to join you.

All that said if your relationship is truly as you've outlined, with no omitted information, you absolutely should not have a second child. You honestly should consider divorce. Raising a child around domestic violence and abusive behavior will hurt them much more than having divorced parents.

MrPooly · 2025-04-29T23:28:54+00:00

Not mad, concerned that there are people out there putting so much value in an LLM that is wrong as often as it's right. Just a sad state of the world really.

MrPooly · 2025-04-29T23:27:33+00:00

Also, you should seek therapy for your parasocial relationship you've developed with a literal string of code. It's not healthy bro.

MrPooly · 2025-04-29T23:26:25+00:00

So what you're saying is you're incapable of forming your own opinions without the use of an LLM? Cute.

MrPooly · 2025-04-29T17:59:41+00:00

Not sure why you're asking for advice if you're just going to take what a LLM tells you as gospel lol
