  • Sal totally hopped on the bus!

    Never thought I’d hear Sal so quickly join the narrative that the SINGLE reason the Bills didn’t EVER make the Super Bowl was Sean! I guess when your job is on the line and you have to follow your boss you do. Receipt-give two years and still no Bowl will he call for Beanie to finally accept the blame? After all that’s what the media’s job is to assign THE BLAME.

  • Sal is my favorite PT Bills-caster!!

    I listen every time Sal is on. Show deteriorates when it’s the other two.

    As for everybody else they expect everyone and person in Bills land to be perfect all pro coaches gm’s EVERY time. What a joke!! Have some humility and show some grace.

    Reminder how WRONG media was from first to last game of exciting, wonderful, unexpected season that like Al 31 teams ALWAYS ends in heartbreak

    1/22/23. Never thought I’d delete a whole show after listening to several minutes and seeing the segment... more

  • Sal is my favorite Bills-caster!!

    I listen every time Sal is on. He’s interesting, but not hyperbolic or TOO excitable. His ace factors making him so interesting are years of broadcasting and sidelines reporting.

    1/22/23. Never thought I’d delete a whole show after listening to several minutes and seeing the segment titles. Why are all Buffalo casters wrapped up in what it will take to FIRE McDermott! All they talk about. Except Steph.

    Sorry Sal, you’re off today.

  • Great Show/Too Many Clips

    I love the show. Sal runs a tight ship and has great insight. But the multitude of clips released in podcast is annoying and confusing. I would love to see just a full show or Hour 1 and Hour 2 clips only released. But overall good progrum.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Paul Hamilton on the Sabres getting ready for the last West Coast trip
Q: What was the building like for the Leafs game and how did Matthews fare after the knee-to-knee hit and suspension?
Matthews is viewed as a dirty player by the guest with multiple suspensions; the panel criticized his penalties but acknowledged his impact, while expressing a desire to avoid him on any team.
Paul Hamilton on the Sabres getting ready for the last West Coast trip
Q: Paul, a goaltending situation. Give us an update on that.
Ellis is back and the Sabres are likely to continue an alternating goaltending plan with Lukaanen as the current starter; Lukaanen delivered a solid outing in a 2-1 loss and is part of the ongoing evaluation.
Paul Hamilton on the Sabres getting ready for the last West Coast trip
Q: Okay, what do we got on the ice? Why don't you give us an update to start us off right away?
Painfully honest injury updates show Samuelson, Ellis, and Pearson back on the ice, with Metza earning the right to be the fifth defenseman and strong depth rotation with Shen and Stanley.
Paul Hamilton on the Sabres' winning ways and western trip
Q: Why are the Sabres able to stay competitive in both conferences?
Strong goaltending, depth defense, and multi-line contributions have kept the Sabres competitive, with a disciplined approach that allows players to fit into a collective system and thrive.
Paul Hamilton on the Sabres' winning ways and western trip
Q: How are the Sabres handling the goaltending rotation with Levi, Lyon, and UPL?
The rotation has worked surprisingly well; both goalies have performed at high levels, and the team has embraced sharing starts to maximize performance and rest, especially during long road trips.
