This isn't really a complaint but more of a "what the hell were they thinking". My company banned microwave popcorn because it winds up leading to several fire alarms each year. So they just added a new food vendor in the lobby downstairs and one of the products they sell is bags of microwave popcorn. Didn't really plan that one through all the way, did they?

And to expand on that a bit, I don't think there's any team out there who is willing.

#2 really is the key there. Bringing on Rice is also going to bring a whole new world of attention and scrutiny to your team. The return you get from Rice would need to outweigh that attention and it doesn't seem likely that he can at this point. Deserving a second chance is great and all, but someone also has to be willing to give you that chance.

And here I thought he was using some crazy slang for gay bars that I have never heard before. Speaking of this whole rape subject, the avalanche of prison rape jokes directed at Jared from Subway right now is more than a bit disturbing. Yes he's scum, but people seem to get a little too much joy out of that thought.

Quick summary of what Carucci said? Ok, not as quick as the last two posts. The Rice stuff has gotten hilarious. Each time any RB in the league gets hurt, the talking heads immediately cook up that discussion.

That's why I think it makes sense that this would only be an alumni game jersey. While all the North Stars history belongs to that area, it does not belong to the team (and I don't mean that in the literal sense of owning something). The Wild are their own animal and they should continue to make their own history. The alumni on the other hand, of course they should be wearing North Star stuff.

Is anyone else wondering what the filtered word in LTS's post was?

It is interesting to hear stories from the male perspective. That all too often gets ignored.

It always blows my mind when I see a post that quotes itself. I'm worried it's one of those moments where the time-space continuum is about to cave in on itself.

I want to call you RoseBush.

That's exactly the thought I've had about this.

Is LGR allowed to have a man crush on a non-sabre prospect?

I'm not really sure on that either. But I think it's more about how someone can start to believe something if they're told it enough. If people start to label that scenario as rape, some are going to start to believe it.

It's not you, just the classic internet thought that Josie just won the internet. And that's no shot at you, Josie. There's just rarely a case where a thread should be finished with one specific post. Was it this thread where someone posted about a school supporting a rape complaint in a case of regret after a significant period of dating? I think those are the cases that concern nfreeman. God I hope it was this board. If not my post looks really bad.

Men are still have of the picture here. While we might not necessarily be able to see things from their point of view, they also can't see things from ours. These types of conversations seem to imply that the thoughts of men carry absolutely no weight on this topic. So yes, while it is helpful to hear things from that different point of view, that fully balanced conversation is never going to happen around here on this board. We don't have the right demographics for that to ever happen. Edit: And I forgot to add that the other posts still do carry plenty of value. This so called culture can't be fully understood unless we listen to them all.

I'm with you on this one. I did not see anything even remotely confrontational with sizzle's posts. Unfortunately some people are just looking for a fight.

Just as long as she knows that we're not all like that. I worry that posts like that one paint the picture that the vast majority are like that. I don't know where the true numbers fall, but I'd venture the guess that most aren't. If women are being objectified, this feels like the male version of that, whatever you want to call it.

With the websites being mentioned here, I just know this will be the day where IT checks in to see what I'm reading online.

I don't care who it is as long as one of them steps up and delivers. How likely that is to happen is another question though. I really don't have faith in any of them right now.

What, no Jason X?

So wait, there are multiple squid-headed dogs out there?

Weave's name would have to be We've

Would Doc actually broadcast a Calgary game? If they only get McDavid once, I can't imagine the Flames are on there at all.

That's the one. The wife always wants to wonder through that town so it's a nice two birds with one stone. I haven't had any of their beer yet so we will see how it is.

I can't believe it took this long to figure that out. I always assumed it was all just one big operation and they did everything, even putting some Globetrotters in training on the other team.
