Isn't it only the Kaleta effect if he actually gets suspended?

I'll never go any further than Target. It's definitely not worth it, especially with the current construction.

The Who

Has that place even been there longer than a year? Wasn't there some random toy store in that space very recently? Anyway, I needed to get a plate before I moved to Holly Springs and that one would have been a lot more convenient than where I wound up going.

If I'm doing my math correctly, that day where they sent down Bailey and others was the first one where teams were allowed to place players on waivers. So that's why you're getting a lot of those moves across the league at the same time.

There's only one way to find out...

You know when you get calls from scammers/telemarketers and they can mask the caller ID so that it shows up as being from the same area code as your own? Does anyone know how they do that and how much control they have over the number that is displayed? I just got a call from a number that was 1 digit off of my own (ie: my number is 716-111-1111 and the caller ID listed 716-111-1112). It's kind of creepy seeing a number that close. I get a kick out of these calls though. They make them come from your own area code so that you're more likely to trust them. For me though, since I haven't lived in Buffalo for so long, the only calls I get from that area are people I know. I will answer an unknown call from any other area code before I will answer one from 716.

You mean sending down a handful of guys and then calling them back up?

I just assumed the AL doesn't matter and the real WS is the NLCS.

Once they've cleared, they don't have to clear again until they've played in 10 NHL games. Like 11 said, it's not very likely with these guys, but who knows. Maybe you do it early just in case some crazy injury doesn't suddenly make a team consider a claim.

Ballsy world series pick there

Not that it was a major concern with the couple guys involved, but was the initial move just a smokescreen so that guys like Catenacci and Schneider can be cleared through waivers early?

Longest tenured Sabre and only 26 years old. It's amazing how much this game has changed in the last ten or so years.

This guy is such a ######. If you really want to make the world a better place with this information, you release it immediately as opposed to cashing out at moments with peak interest. edit: I can't say the word that starts with a WH and rhymes with bore?

Did they ever get into full details of how exactly Bridgewater was hurt? I don't remember hearing much after the initial reports about how gruesome it was.

They think those slogans are bad? Carolina has been running with "join the REDvolution" for at least two years now. What does that even mean?

For the past 6 months or so they've been building a brand new overpass on my drive to work. They're essentially building a new highway, so it's a ton of work to grade the area and then build everything from scratch. They're at the point now where they're putting the steel girders up over the road. It's kind of creepy to think about, but it has been very cool to see this process play out over time.

I don't even know where to start with this one

I just ordered a new tv with the sole intention of having it here in time for hockey season.

Is Gloria Estefan injured because she's still on the roster too. I really haven't been following closely but I hadn't seen the name mentioned much.

I'm all for mocking horrible photoshops that make someone look fake though. That's always fun. I've got a great picture on my phone from a game at Fenway of the profile picture they were using for a random player on the jumbotron. I should really host is somewhere so I can post it. They made a hilarious decision when editing that one.

Best of luck to you. There's must be something in the water right now that's hitting fathers. We just put mine in a home last week and he's a wreck. My neighbor's dad broke his hip a day or two ago and is supposed to be in very bad shape, sounds like it may be the end for him. I know people seem to think I'm a complainer, but I've always taken a lighthearted approach to this thread. So many of the posts are made tongue in cheek mostly for fun. You've got to enjoy as many moments as you can.

Honestly, most don't matter much at all since they are fringe guys. There's only one in a key role. He just happens to be filling the most important spot on the entire roster.

It really doesn't matter much given that it's a depth/AHL signing, but Murray sure does love dealing with Ottawa and ex-Ottawa players a lot. "He likes his own guys way too much" was a common complaint with Regier, but operating that way is way more common than we think. It's amazing to see how these guys develop their own little network that they wind up dealing with constantly. It probably sheds a lot of light onto the annual question from each fanbase of why we couldn't make that same trade since our trade chips were better.

Most of the time you can question intent, but wow, that one is about as blatant as possible.
