SPORTING NEWS: Which NHL team deserves the Stanley Cup?


There seems to be a list for everything these days, but this one has our blessing.  Click to find out why the city of Buffalo deserves to win a Stanley Cup!

SIMON: Inside the Numbers - North Stars edition


With back to back visits by the Dallas Stars and Minnesota Wild this week and if you are a hockey fan over the age of 25, perhaps you thought back to the days of the Minnesota North Stars. They had one of my favorite uniforms - the green road jersey with the giant gold N on the chest and the arrow which was part of the N pointing up to the star. 

SCHOPP: Talking Bills vs. dirty shoes


I often say the wrong thing when I get emotional. Many of you may know how this goes. You've had a bad day at work, and once you walk in the door at home the slightest annoyance can set you off.

For me, when I'm at work and people are listening to me when I'm talking, this trait can be problematic. Like on Wednesday.

BUSCAGLIA: NFL Mock Draft 2.0


Well since we're a few days in to free agency now, it's about that time to update the mock draft. You'll see a lot of changes due to many different factors. Those obviously include updated team needs and NFL Combine performances.

Will the player to the left be included in this one round mock draft? Find out inside as WGR's Joe Buscaglia forecasts the first round.

SIMON: Across the Ice - Dallas Stars edition


The Buffalo Sabres’ offense went into the Olympic break experiencing some problems. Out of the break, those problems still exist. The Sabres lack of scoring at even strength and the near zero success rate on the power play has once again put the pressure squarely on the shoulders of new national media darling Ryan Miller.

BULLDOG: Why I love Tim Tebow


Our website poll on Monday asked if I was hoping the Bills would draft Tim Tebow.  A simple yes or no isn't enough here for me.  I find myself in a spot where I may need  the Bills to draft Tim Tebow.

Choppin' Broccoli : A Kenny Mayne Compilation


ESPN's Kenny Mayne was scheduled to be a guest with Mike Schopp & The Bulldog this afternoon -- but we were unable to connect with the "Mayne Street" star and occaisonal SportsCenter anchor.   In lieu of that, here's a collection of his catchphrases courtesy of http://www.sportscenteraltar.com/phrases/phrases.asp?check10=on

BUSCAGLIA: The Intrigue That Is Tim Tebow


NFL teams go years, and even decades without finding a franchise quarterback that has that leadership and team first mentality that teammates gravitate toward.

With University of Florida star quarterback Tim Tebow, some team will be getting just that and a bag of chips come draft day in April. Would it be a good move for the Buffalo Bills? WGR's Joe Buscaglia provides some insight in to that question.

BUSCAGLIA: Porter and the Bills - A Match?


Volatile. Brash. Self-centered. Arrogant.

Any and all of these words can be heard when listening to public opinion on former Miami Dolphins outside linebacker Joey Porter. But with the level of production throughout his career, is he worth the risk?

WGR's Joe Buscaglia delves in to the matter.

BUSCAGLIA: NFL Free Agency Primer


Happy New Year! Well, sort of.

When the clock strikes midnight and turns over to March 5, 2010, the next official calendar year for the National Football League is underway. It's also coincided with the start of both restricted and unrestricted free agency, and is a milestone day for the league's off-season.

So with Camp Gailey now in town running the show, what types of things can we be looking out for? WGR's Joe Buscaglia breaks down the next phase of the NFL year: The off-season.

MENDOLA: Grading the Trading


(WGR 550) -- Another year, another trade deadline in the NHL, and this one was one of the worst ever. Not for Buffalo, but for hype. Three relatively big names -- Ilya Kovalchuk, Dion Phaneuf and Olli Jokinen -- were shipped almost a full month or more before the deadline, and no real surprises came out of the blue.

But that doesn't really matter in the long run as much as who got better relative to the rest of the league.

SCHOPP: Sabres, Bills not their worst, just their wimpiest


We all know it, and we've all been reminded of it countless times. No Buffalo sports team has won a major professional sports championship. Try to convince yourself that lacrosse counts against that, or 1960s football in an eight-team league; not one percent of fans will agree with you.

But we don't need a title to love our teams. (Good thing.) What we do need is ...
