I question Lindy's sanity for wanting to work in palm tree-less Buffalo.

Maybe Brew-nette warned him that living in a place with palm trees would promote driving golf carts on real roads while drunk as a skunk?

Someone on the main boards was saying lindy was throwing adams under the bus lately. Any truth to this?

I didn't see anything like that. It was just that Ruff didn't like our defense and that Jokiharju was sitting in the press box. But I wouldn't be surprised if Ruff kicks Adams out.

Lindy at their next practice?

Ruff conceded he thought both players "really responded well" to their extended time watching from the bench.

"I know that's a culture change," he said.

Hopefully the guys learn soon...
