So true. I might fill one of these out, but I've gone so long without any of you knowing a thing about me, including my age, do I really want to mess all that up?
Age: Young enough to be your son. We'll stick with that for now. None of you need know exactly how old I am.
Location: Jamestown, NY
Current Occupation: I do local sports at a local radio station. WRFA. Google the name, you'll get the website, and you can listen if you really want to. Monday's and Friday's at 5:30 is my sports wrap.
Sabres Fan Since: As long as I can remember? I've always been a sabres fan. The strange thing, of course, is that neither of my parents like hockey...
Season Ticket Holder? (Y/N): Nope. I've just been to a handful of games in my life.
All Time Favorite Sabres: Audette. The fiestiness and agressiveness in such a small player. Gotta love it. Peca, as well.
Current Favorite Sabres: Goose! He does so much with such little tallent, and makes the most of what he's got. He knows how to play the game, and makes a living keeping it simple. I'd also throw Weber in here, hopefuly he can replace the void McKee left.
Favorite Sabres Moment: The dom backed cup run, in general. For one specfic game, gotta go with Pommers OT winner.
Sabres Jerseys You Own: Gaustad.
Team You Hate Most: Senators and Flyers.
Personal (Pick 3)
Favorite Musical Artists: I really don't like newer stuff much at all. So I'll go with all time faves, those being the Beatles, Guns n Roses, and Billy Joel.
Favorite Movies: I can never remember my favorite movies. Off the top of my head I'll go with Remember the Titans, Star Wars (the whole thing), and Saving Private Ryan.
and I ain't gonna do this crap again, this thread occurs every year. I'm old and getting old and after the lousy day I had I'm just the same hockeysfuture guy as the one that covered the 98' draft (...it's been ten years!) back in Buffalo for this site. And no that Kruikrov pick I sold bold nailed didn't turn out one bit...but i was right on Heisten and I will be with Zagrapan (or I hope or I'll never live it down)
