I hear that trojan sells a product that does that.

I hope that one doesn't take off as a nickname.? It's a perfect name for the type of player that all too often gets vilified around here.

They've probably added you to some sort of list after running that search. Sure, it's a common one on the internet, but probably not on that page.

Why is it even an official stat? Ultimately, it's not really all that important. With or without this team games played vs. personal games played, it really doesn't change anything.

Meh, it was ok.

That's going to depend on the building. There are certain places where the number of stone-headed morons is just too high and it doesn't matter how you act. I'm guessing Philly is one of those. Boston definitely is. Hell, last time I was in that arena they were even harassing the hell out of my wife and she was wearing a Bruins shirt.

I just randomly came across possibly the strangest use of a profanity filter that I've ever seen. It changed "basement" to "ba*****t". Now I'm kind of curious to see if I can come up with more words with that one buried in the middle.

Hopefully you'll reach your next realization soon.

You don't say! I really missed a chance by not making reference to that right away.

It's too early. If Pittsburgh can get in, Tomlin will win the media award.

Are they though? It's early, but this is shaping up to be a season where the atlantic (*****, I still want to say northeast) only gets 3 playoff teams. That could wind up being a really tough spot because we all know Tampa and Toronto are capable of climbing up the standings.

And you wonder why Neo's a Bills fan.

Are you sure?

@Brawndo? I guess I’m going to have to start calling him Doogie.

A roster of 23 with 98 different numbers to choose from, retire away. There are still plenty of options out there. The only real crime is that the league no longer allows 00.

I heard Santa Baby the other day and a question suddenly popped into my head. "How in the hell do I actually know that this is Eartha Kitt?" She's well before my time and I really only know her as Catwoman. And it's not a song I really care about either way. So why did I so quickly identify her as the singer?

I have a hard time picturing the Devils taking on any of Subban's salary, especially with two more years left on the deal. So Toronto would have to free up $9 million worth of space to make that one happen. That one would have to get very creative in order to happen.

So does Harley have dual citizenship? I'm seeing him listed as being born in Syracuse.

Amateur. Why decide between two beers when you can just get both? And yeah, if there are 17 different options, that's when your level of dedication is truly put to the test.

I just watched someone use a paper cutter (you know, the ones with the giant blade on a swinging arm) to open envelopes. I don't know whether to laugh or to be impressed.

Why does it matter which Bills were voted into the pro bowl? None of them will be playing anyway. Did I do that right??

To be fair, if video replay in sports has taught us anything, it's that we have no visual proof for where the toes actually are, if there are in fact any toes at all. The ruling on the field stands, he's toeing the line.

Exactly. But what we do know for sure is that hire #1 was a bust. One can only hope that he learned a thing or two from that, because he appears to have nailed the next GM he hired (please don't take that out of context... you know who you are). Actually, now that I look back at the timeline, did they really hire both of the current GMs within days of each other?

He made the right hire in one place but not in the other.

There was definitely a bird.
