• Commented on What's Your Wish for 2013
  The sides streets in particular (especially the East Side) need a lot of work done. Constantly going over potholes isn't good for your c*r....

  How is THAT flaming someone?...
• Commented on Bills Changes: Chan Gailey Out, Russ Brandon Promoted to CEO
  That's true I guess, but I think football would have a lot more visitors than hockey. It's a good thing, but the logistics are what make it complicated. If they can find a spot downtown for a Bills stadium, I'm...
• Commented on Bills Changes: Chan Gailey Out, Russ Brandon Promoted to CEO
  Where would they put it though? Traffic's a bottleneck and a football stadium would make it a lot worse. I don't think a lot of people from the northern/eastern suburbs and the Southtowns would be willing to take mass transit,...
• Commented on Bills Changes: Chan Gailey Out, Russ Brandon Promoted to CEO
  Hopefully they can take out that parking lot at the Bills stadium, move the stadium closer, and include some new curbs and some exquisite ethnic restaurants. Also, a bike lane in the sidelines would be beautiful....
• Commented on Construction Watch: Cynthia Gardens
  Holy geez, it's Christmas and the commenters here are STILL fighting with each other over petty "urban" issues? This blog has become more unreadable by the day. Happy holidays....

  Yes it is....
• Commented on Preliminary Work Starts on Revised Medical Campus Building
  NOOO!!! It's much easier to sit on my Mac at the co-op and whine about how terrible and clueless designers are while having no experience or ideas myself! Downvotes to you sir!...
• Commented on Preliminary Work Starts on Revised Medical Campus Building
  I'd rather focus on, you know, the road in front of me, so I don't cause an accident....

• Commented on Campaign for Greater Buffalo v. Public Bridge Authority in Federal Court Today
  Those houses appear to be the most fixable out of any I've seen on the West Side. Tearing them down is incredibly stupid and shortsighted but unfortunately, I fear greed may prevail in this argument....
• Commented on Demolition of Kensington Heights to Continue Through Winter
  Give that demolition team a break. They're trying to dear down those buildings asbestos they can....
• Commented on Fillmore Avenue Gets Repaved, Reconfigured, and Bike Lanes
  That stretch of Fillmore has some serious potential if it ever gets some investment. It's a very pretty stretch of road with beautiful landscaping and houses full of character. Repaving the road is a good start....
• Commented on HSBC Leaving Tower
  I'm gonna buy it and call it "BuffaloEmigrant's Big Ol' Freakin Building." Y'all can come party in it if you want....
• Commented on Students to Unveil Multimedia Poster Presentations Inspired by Non-Profits
  At the risk of getting downvoted/deleted, I graduated from Medaille, and it seemed every year the incoming freshmen got progressively worse. I had friends who worked in admissions that often remarked how a lot of the admissions essays were usually...
• Commented on The Lyth Cottage: Preservation in Progress
  Freaking awesome. The Cold Springs section of the East Side has a lot of potential, just needs some love....
• Commented on Paint is "On the house"
  HUE have got to be kidding me!...
• Commented on Rumor: Walmart Eyeing Hertel/Elmwood Corner
  Man, some of the regulars here really need to get a sense of humor....
• Commented on Rumor: Walmart Eyeing Hertel/Elmwood Corner
  And instead of those urban-esque overhead lamps that they use, they should light the store with chandeliers. Also if they have room for a charter school somewhere in the store, that would be good too....
• Commented on LA Fitness to open at Elmwood and Hertel Center
  You neglected to mention the large parking lot. We must organize a boycott....
• Commented on Elmwood Village Black Friday Boutique Crawl
  The panhandling has been ridiculous on Elmwood lately. I can't walk to Cole's anymore without getting stopped at least twice by beggars. Just now I was harassed twice by this lady while I was just trying to get groceries out...
• Commented on Order up! Puppy pizza to go...
  With articles like these lately, Buffalo Rising has really GONE TO THE DOGS!! Hrrmph hrrmph hrrmph...
• Commented on Work Starts on School Conversion Project in Riverside
  Has anyone driven past School 60 lately? It's in rough shape and certainly wasn't reusable as a school. I'm glad it's being put back to work again. I'm no fan of low-income housing, but one less abandoned empty building is...
• Commented on Buffalo Bills: Fan Frustration Forces a Hard Look at Chan Gailey
  I told people last year Fitzpatrick was not a franchise QB and Gailey wasn't HC material. You'd have thought I said that Buffalo wings taste awful based on the reaction I got....

• Commented on In-Rem Auction Round Up: Hamlin Park Edition
  They should just wait until Medaille closes down and acquire their dorms and property. That school is going nowhere fast, terribly managed and hemmeraging money. I would know....
• Commented on Market Watch: West Side Bazaar
  And it will stay that away until legitimate businesses and residents move into that area. It will be a slow and difficult process, but the more occupied an area is by good tenants, the less riffraff that will be around....

• Commented on The Frederick Law Olmsted School at Kensington-Buffalo's Other Art Deco Building
  Looking at pictures from before the reconstruction, it appeared that there weren't any handicap-accessible entrances. The new entrance is ground level and contains an elevator in to the main school, along with a new main office suite and a very...
• Commented on The Frederick Law Olmsted School at Kensington-Buffalo's Other Art Deco Building
  Riverside could be a prime location if it weren't for the 190 cutting through it. While the area doesn't offer much in terms of historical architecture, it has a lot of potential as a residential community....
