I'll admit to not following the coverage at all, but the comments as you outlined them seem fair to me, other than maybe the parenthetical note. That sounds like exactly what Larsson will need to be to this team, a jack of all trades type who can and will be plugged into any spot.

From everything I've heard about that location, it sounds like it would be better for just about everyone.

But if you want to know who guys used to play for, Emerick's your guy. All I know is if Olli Jokinen is on the ice, I'm immediately changing the channel. I bet he'd even mention him as a former Maple Leaf even though he was there for just 6 games.

This GMC commercial drives me crazy. Has anyone actually ever heard a pitcher referred to as a Rembrandt?

Most people are stupid, including both the fans and the people. Twitter is a breeding ground for stupid and the vast majority of what comes from there is going to be exactly that, stupid. Honestly, at this point to me, an athlete saying something stupid on twitter is the equivalent of the sun rising in the morning. Sometimes it's fun to look at, but most of the time, meh it's just another day.

I don't know if I'm ever going to fault someone for that kind of reaction. The world is full of idiots and that includes both the people throwing random insults his way and also Sammy himself. "Person says something stupid".... STOP THE PRESSES!

I don't know. If he's not in the room, he has to throw it. I doubt his aim is that good.

I still wonder what else he was supposed to do given what he inherited. Sure he could have drafted the random QB here or there, but he hasn't had any shot at picking up an elite one over these three years.

But let's be honest here, each time Hasek did that, he wasn't playing the puck, he was playing the player. Dirty? Probably, but it was definitely both scary and entertaining at the same time.

So only you can create stupid nicknames?

Flying out and cutting out the knees of a forward racing for a loose puck.

And while we're getting technical, if someone is having their chest ripped open, wouldn't blood be coming out of their mouth as well (Glenn)?

I want every game to go to OT.

And if Tennessee doesn't choke up their game we are 2-5. The if game is great, but all that matters is that this team is 3-4 right now. Hopefully they can figure things out with the bye, come back healthy, then run off some wins.

And it seems like walkers have been going towards the head/neck lately. I feel like I've seen a bunch of faces ripped open recently, like Nick Papageorgio.

Is there more than just one single quote out there? What I have seen is fairly tame.

You're dead on with this one, freeman.

If you go back to the highlight of the 4th goal... is that el crusho? :w00t:

I thought they pulled the plug on the revival. :huh:

So if we're talking strictly about Stafford, who cares if Winnipeg won? Stafford was an expiring contract and the Sabres weren't going to bring him back. There was nothing there for the Sabres to lose.

A bar was open at 8 in the morning? Were the regulars confused as to why a football game was on?

I'm in the same boat, I only get ads if I'm not signed in. edit: And I just thought of the perfect way to fund the site. I will now be selling off the image rights to my avatar. It'll be the face tattoo of the internet.

I like how the tv guys were faulting the Bills for some stupid penalty yet they never actually mentioned what the call was or showed a replay of it. The only mentioning they made of that block was how good it was.

It's purely semantics at this point, but every single team would be happy with above average QB play. I think you've got something far different in your mind than I do when you hear that label. Of course every team wants elite QB play, but they'd also much rather take this theoretical "above average QB" over the EJs, Ryan Mallets, and McCowns of the league.
