Short Take Sports
Josh has turf burns
I watched Josh mic’d up. Two things stuck out: He slid and later talked about turf burns and when a Saints player said “I hate you” he responded jovially. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i71jR3mhNTE
Bills sign new weapon
Punts are like underwear, to quote John Winger from Strips (played by Bill Murray) “Boxers or briefs” they asked in the requisition line, “I rarely wear underwear but when I do, I prefer something exotic,” Winger replied. Punts are like that. I would rather never punt but if I do, I prefer something exotic. The Aussie the Bills just signed specializes in a helicopter that led two 5 muffs a few years ago. A punt is a turnover. Why not try and force a turnover back on the same play. https://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/2025/09/the-buffalo-bills-just-signed-a-punter-with-a-secret-weapon-that-has-returners-completely-baffled.html
Mrtka might stick
Three seasons ago it was Zach Benson forcing his way into the lineup. We might be watching Radim Mrtka do the same thing. Oh and opening night, get ready for Mason Geertson v. Matt Rempe. Neither can play hockey but one necessitates the other. https://www.buffalohockeybeat.com/in-mature-rookie-radim-mrtka-sabres-h…
