Paying attention to the sports news of the day I discovered something that has already made my 2007 sports year three days in. Wayne Huizenga, the owner of the Maimi dolphins, after conceding defeat to the mighty Alabama razor backed hoagy whatever they are college football team.

Green Tirade
The Bears are who we thought they were and we let 'em off the hook.

Now former head coach Dennis Green went on a tirade after the game crowing the Chicago bears.
Game 1 Eastern Conference Semifinals
After exchanging leads and giving up a goal in the final 2 minutes of regulation Tim Connolly and the Buffalo Sabres score with seconds left to tie the game and force overtime. Seconds into overtime a costly turnover in the Senators zone ends up in the net as the Sabres steal home ice and momentum cruising to a 4-1 series victory.
Week 2 Buffalo Bills @ Maimi Dolphins
Following a heartbreaking loss at the hands of the New England Patriots one week prior, the Bills defense squash any hope the Dolphins and their fans have for the 2006 season embarrassing Daunte Culpepper and the 'phins in Miami. Sacks fumbles turnovers and touchdowns give Bills fans optimism for the season and the future.
January 15, 2006 Patriots @ Broncos Divisional round

New York Mets Clinch the National League East title
After what seemed like two decades of dominance in the NL East, the Mets ran away with the division in 2006 clinching the division sometime in late April.

January 4th 2006
TOM DONAHOE IS FIRED. The reign of losing ends, well losing under Donahoe's control. Days later Mularkey quits, the Bills are left in turmoil only to see the light rehiring Marv Levy.
September 6th 2006
Anibal Sanchez, rookie, starting in his 14th big league game of his career throws a no hitter over the Diamondbacks.

He and Rookie of the Year Hanley Ramirez were sent to the Marlins for Josh Beckett and Mike Lowell.
Honorable mention:
Seeing Francisco Liriano pitching against the tribe opening baseball weekend
the Bills come from behind last minute drive @ Houston
The Sabres force a game 7 of Eastern Conference Finals

Worst Moments
The Bills lose to the Patriots week 1 in classic Bills style casting a shadow over the entire season.
The Sabres lose game 7 of the ECF as Miller lays helpless on the ice and that piece of shit Rory Fitzpatrick fails to clear Brind'amore from the crease as he chips in the eventual winner.
Carlos Beltran strikes out to end game 7 of the NLCS on a wicked change up from a rookie.
Vince Young emerges as a true baller as he comes into Ralph Wilson Stadium and ends all playoff hopes for the 52,000+ fans on Christmas eve.
The Sabres unveil a brand new jersey. However, instead of swords or a white buffalo, a half breed buffalo/slug with 1 horn no legs and bright yellow is worn.
