halobob reacted to HaloCory22 in NHL Expansion to Vegas - Official
I was a supporter of Seattle getting a team and after visiting up there last week I'm even more for them getting a team. Its amazing how much that city rallies behind their team. The Sounders and Seahawks get so much attention up there. The NHL would thrive up there.

halobob got a reaction from HaloCory22 in LA Kings-Anaheim Ducks Rivalry: It’s Probably Nowhere Near What You Think It Is
Agreed, I think Blackhawks are Kings biggest rival followed by Sharks then Ducks. I guess with the Wings back in the east and the lack of playoff series recently with the Sharks the Kings would be the Ducks biggest rival currently. I really want to see a Ducks Blackhawks playoff series, that would be quite the series.

Got this done with yesterday. I've stared, in amazement, at the clock on the microwave for far too long.

Speaking of "no business going in" that Trevor Lewis goal from 20ft out was horrendous.

halobob reacted to Scott34 in Rumor only: Indians acquire Trumbo for Kluber?
btw, I wouldn't be too happy about this. Kluber was decent last year but he's 27 and pretty 5th starter-y.

halobob reacted to Blarg in Jeff Passan: Angels to go after Scherzer
Boy I hope not. They went after Grienke, failed and ended up with a counterfeit Hamilton. This would just end up with a fat Panda.

halobob reacted to DerekGMZ in Friends of Percy Squint
I was able to sit down and have lunch with Mike during Halloween weekend. My gf and I brought him Spaghetti w/ red sauce from BJ's Restaurant. It didn't sit well with me to see Mike bald and thin, I wanted to hit cancer over the head repeatedly with a bat. When I arrived I could see him sitting on the front room recliner playing online poker on his phone. I've played poker with Mike at a few home games, even at a few AW events. He genuinely loves the game. His dry humor is memorable, honest, and always appreciated by me at the table and at social functions. As we began eating at the dinner table, I was happy to see he had not lost his appetite. His conversing skills were still in form, the good ol' Percy with a few painful coughs mixed in from the stupid pos cancer. He told me a story that I've heard before, but It had been a while and I love to hear refreshers.
He was at the Bellagio back before poker's black friday. There were big named pros sitting in Bobby's Room (A private glass room in the Bellagio set aside for the big game) playing their normal variety of games. He spotted Gus Hansen in the game, who was a decorated backgammon champion. Mike (being a backgammon enthusiast himself) walks over and asked the host if he knew where to find backgammon games out here in Vegas. The host then says, "Gus is big on backgammon, I'm sure I could ask and he'll start a game for you. I'm thinking he'll play $25k a point" Mike then replies, "Hmm, $25k... Why doesn't Gus stop being such a tight ass and play me for $100k a point" (*Im sure this was executed with the Percy stare of seriousness) The host replies while reaching for his phone, "Heh... I'll text him, I'm sure he'll accommodate you." Mike then stops the host as he's about to type "I'm just kiding, sorry, but thanks" Mike told this story with a big smile. He capped it by saying it was the time he almost played Gus for grips of money at backgammon (a fanboys dream)
Mike tells this story much better than I wrote it, I hope I did it justice, Mike.
By this point Mike is nearly done with his full serving of spaghetti, while pinpointing that BJ's is great, but they need to work on their garlic bread. "This bread is crunchy as F and no one needs to eat croutons with a meal, Derek" He then lights up and offers us desert, Breyers Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream. He told us it was his favorite and after trying it, I can see why. It was absolutely delicious, thanks again Mike.
Throughout the visit there were some emotional points, which I would rather keep between us. Cancer is a POS.
We say our good byes. After a long hug, we make plans to see each other at spring training. Mike PercySquint Sword still remained confident, positive and strong despite his fear and pain.
I love you, Mike and it was an honor to have shared moments of life with you.

Every time a woman gets behind the wheel they are putting lives in danger. We should throw them all in jail.

Everytime someone is on a cell phone while driving they endanger the lives of others. We should throw them in jail also.

Rape is out of control in India. This is probably the only way to curtail it. I'm already resigned to the idea that I'm dying in prison if someone touches my girls.

Yup, I totally get that we have a judicial system and all but if someone raped my daughter it is hard for me to believe that if given the chance I wouldn't kill the mother****er.
