What's the big appeal to you guys with those fighter games? Is it mostly about the ability to go multi-player? I pretty much always play games on my own, so they've never appealed to me. I want to get pulled into a game for months at a time, so I always flock to your longer story-oriented games.

We were lucky that we have a very good table already. That cut back on costs big time. We needed chairs, some sort of china cabinet, and then another larger piece to go along a side wall. I really have no idea what name they give to that last piece. Anyway, it's the first room you see as you walk into the house, so we want it done right and some very quality stuff up there. I'm sure we could have gone much cheaper, but what we did get should take care of that room for 20+ years.

We bought new dining room furniture a couple weeks back. Needless to say, my wallet has been mortally wounded.

My prediction: lots of triple stripes

Be careful when you mention Whaley. From my experience, things get awkward around here when he's mentioned. ;)

He's playing a game of chicken with Toronto's front office, waiting for them to swoop in last second.

You know what it sounds like? I'm still trying to figure out how that would be pronounced.

I hope she chooses one of those.

He's finally reached the point that Chuck has already been at for a while now. No matter what he has claimed, all of the stuff Chuck has done is also born out of hate.

Not yet. It's part getting home late, part hatred of commercials, and part not wanting to stay up for shows that start at 10. Anyway, I watched it last night. Loved the ending. I would hope that at this point, no one watching the show actually thought Jimmy's "breakdown" was legit. Even knowing that, it was awesome watching it play out. I just wish I didn't have to wait a week to see where it leads.

If 17-30-47 is what you get from a 21 year old just happy to be there, I'm feeling pretty good with that guy's potential. If that somehow is in fact his attitude, I trust that it will turn around, especially being a second generation NHLer.

That somehow needs to be merged with 11's video of the soccer coach taking a paper airplane to the head.

I like the ones where you catch something out of the corner of your eye and you think it's someone you know. Then once you take the time to look a little closer, the person winds up looking absolutely nothing like who you originally thought it was. Whether it's the color of their hair, the shape of their head, or even just something so basic like their height, something registers in your mind in that very brief moment. Maybe I'm the only one who has those moments, but for a brief second I'll think it's Doug Whaley, only to find out that it's actually Jacqueline from that Key and Peele clip posted earlier, two people you could never possible get mixed up.

I hate that I only had basic cable during most of that show's run.

Somewhere in the not too distant future every word in this thread will be said about TIm Murray on another team's board. He'll be heading up a scouting department somewhere.

You realize that by admitting you go to the gym, you are exhibiting a bias against those who are out of shape. That type of attitude is not accepted around here.

Actually, I have to say that it's funny to sit back and watch someone dig their heels in after saying something stupid. Most of us have probably all been there plenty of times.

Now you're going to make me go all out liger. I'm so scared.

Would you like to know my income while you're at it? That has just as much to do with this as anything else... wait, then again, I was commenting about work, so income is actually slightly related

I'm typically a day or two behind on watching them. So I've seen everything except last night's show. I'm at the point where I pretty much can't watch anything unless it's on the DVR. God bless fast-forwarding through commercials.

What if you have a total of 5 fans but they're the most hardcore 5 fans you'll ever meet?

Put the shovel down. Only one person introduced race into this discussion (hint: it was you). Nowhere in my post is my race or the race of my coworker stated. So that's an awful lot of assuming going on.

How exactly is capacity percentage a measure of in-arena experience?

Back when he was playing here, all I could ever think when I saw his name was "butter roll".

Sweet. It felt like it was very close to the end of the season with how quickly things moved with the bar hearing.
