We have this guy in our neighborhood who is just about the most arrogant know-it-all you'll ever meet. A couple months ago he posted a message in the neighborhood facebook page about some concrete company he was using for a big project, recommending them to anyone looking for work. He said something along the lines of "and if you know the XXXXX family, you know that we always do our research", and then finished up with "I give them the XXXXX XXXXXXX stamp of approval". So fast-forward to today and he has posted a message saying that this company was a scam, listing out their full name and the guy who runs it. Someone googled the guy's name and within 30 seconds found a long list of BBB complaints. So much for that family and their extensive research process. I'm not doing the original post justice with my paraphrasing above, but let's just say it was easily the most arrogant thing I've ever seen in this neighborhood. I really hope he's the only one who wound up getting caught up in it because it's one hell of a dose of karmic justice.

I wouldn't be surprised if we see an exchange of two the cliched players in need of a change of scenery.

If you're saying this satirically, it is absolutely brilliant.
-
I don't think I've ever agreed with anything more than this in my entire life.

I quit all of that after my junior year of high school. :w00t:

Looking at that original Friedman quote about Harrington, for me anyway, it's next to impossible to draw much of anything from it in it's written form. There was so much rambling, flow of consciousness stuff going on there. It somehow even becomes even more rambly in written form than I'm assuming it was on the podcast. And Blue, there's no need for me to call you out by name. I mean it far more generically than just with this conversation. It happens all over the place. Stuff in print is overanalyzed when there really isn't all that much to it.

What we're seeing here is the dangers of dissecting every single word of a live quote as if it was something that was written over the course of the day. The portion of the later conversation about how if you get one word wrong you could be in real trouble is prophetic. That is now exactly what some are doing here.

Based off of this, Scandella needs to hand over #6 to Dahlin. It's funny in a way that #11 has now been pushed aside in a luck based draft event.

And is only missing by one number on the last ball only any different than only missing by one number on the first ball only? When you start playing that game, I bet you get close to saying most of the teams only missed by one number.

It's nice to see a guy want to stick around, even when it's a fringe player.

Technically both characters in mine have no clothes. Oh wait, there's a hat.

I know they've been taking college coaches lately, but that's an awfully quick turn from his first NCAA head coaching job to the NHL.
-
Yeah, you might want to delete that one picture.

If I'm forced to cuddle with d4rk, I think I will have to take his advice and walk away. I'll leave that job to inky.

I think it's a package deal. They're running this entire show together and you won't see any real change to who gets more air time.
-
I'm good with all of that. My whole interaction here has been with you though and let's face it, you've never been one to shy away from any of that. I'm not sure if I've fallen into that role since I've been back. I haven't paid all that much attention yet.

The bolded party pretty much takes care of everything. Insubordination will get you every time, especially when added onto already existing offenses.
-
And of course QBs. They're always all over the top of the list of jersey sales.
-
Having a different point of view than you makes me a prick? That's interesting. That's one of the major problems we have today, people can't disagree without it becoming a fight. Instead of trying come to an understanding, I'm asked to leave. I'm listening here, but I need something a bit less vague.

I'm shocked there hasn't been a run on Chubb jerseys, but maybe that gets divided between two players.
-
Today, tomorrow, ten years from now. It has to get here at some point, right? ;)
-
So in other words you're going to do nothing and pretend that you're making a point? If you want to call me out for something, you damn well better be able to back it up.
-
No, I don't expect you to dig up posts. I was hoping maybe you had something generic. But what you're saying here is a bit troubling. I'll try to make this more generic and not about one specific person, but it's hard given how this current conversation has developed. If a woman views being questioned or corrected from a "you're doing this because I'm a woman" point of view, even if that's not the case, it's kind of hard to move forward from there. If there's a line for when it is ok and when it is not, it's next to impossible to identify.

That's the problem with painting everything with the same exact brush. You'll find countless lifelong relationships where if we use the criteria NS just laid out, they were born out of harassment.

Please tell me exactly what I'm guilty of here. I need a good explanation of how you know where my mind is better than I do myself. If I've said something to her I'd love to hear it. Quite honestly I couldn't tell you the last time I had an interaction on here with her. Granted I was gone for a long time.
