  1. I'm pretty sure I'm recovering from a bout with the latest strain. A couple days of chills and fever and some runny nose. If this is what it's turned into I'm not getting another shot
  2. I don't know how you can blame Fowler when they keep trying to make him Victor Hedman with no help
  3. Vegas has to clear about 2.5 in cap space to bring Eichel back. They can do it by putting Stone on LTIR or both of Howden and Carrier. They may choose to stash Stone for the rest of the regular season and use his cap money to bring back Smith or go after Rico or even Guentzel but any of that means he's definitely done til the playoffs
  4. Gerrymandering. When the most extreme is the one who wins the primary you get what you ask for
  5. The library will be built but the contractors will never be paid
  6. I know you don't love Gibson but this is what the world looks like with truly bad goaltending. How frustrating is it to hold a team to 15 shots and still lose?
  7. I’m actually a Westminster High (CO) grad and follow the same teams as you but I can no longer sit through a football game so I’m quite grateful for the Avs
  8. What Boras does is not a secret. They wouldn't hire him if they didn't want this
  9. I bet the almond growers have rain collectors
  10. I think it just reflects how all sports leagues went from basing their revenue off of ticket sales and game attendance before the existence of cable TV to realizing the benefits of local TV deals as they have been for the last 30ish years. Even the NFL had the Rozelle Rule which barred games from the home TV market if they weren't sold to close to capacity. Today only the NHL is really focused on attendance as the cash cow. It's why hockey teams will forego rebuild when they have any chance of those 2 extra home playoff paydays (in which the players aren't even getting paid) even when they know they have no chance of winning it all
  11. Or maybe they could just teach him how to run out a grounder without crippling himself
  12. Please describe for us the American dream
  13. He goes to the backyard and attemps to assemble sporting equipment
  14. Or are they really heroes who refused to give in to reality?
  15. Why not take advantage of those deep Dodger pockets and sign him to play for us while they pay him?
  16. The current system has zero incentive to fix a motherfucking thing. They need boogeymen to blame on the other side to keep dimwits in a frenzy. Something has to be done to create negative consequences at the top levels. If the 2 remaining parties can outvote you and get shit done then there's a chance you get phased into oblivion by inaction. They've used the guise of democracy to create an oligarchy that's the envy of the rest of the world. That's why every country wants to pretend to be democratic. Then they do whatever they want and blame it on the voters. And my definition of a self righteous coward is one who relies on cherry-picked bible verses and the bullshit notion of some American Dream to justify his positions
  17. It's not everybody. It's the ones who have time to rewrite the history of the Middle East to suit their narrative or travel across the country to fix the border crisis on their own but they're just louder
  18. I actually think the best bet for a viable 3rd party is for members of the center from both parties to finally get fed up with the fringe loonies and come together. It won’t be easy since the establishment has institutionalized the 2 party bullshit
  19. Many participants called the entire event a grift on those who couldn't really afford the trip but did so because they are gullible dipshits
  20. Rangers and Avs probably both have eyes on Rico. Just see who’s willing to pay Verbeek’s price
