  1. I hope it's something apropos to the region, like the Jazz for the NBA team.
  2. Poetic. Good to see you! That's unexpected.
  3. Couple years, couple mil I'd bet. Probably more if he can convince people that that 20 goals is the norm for him (3 of last 5 seasons), not this season's 7 in 51 games.
  4. There might be, but more likely, you're in a profession where there are (currently) 32 positions available in the world. You don't air any dirty laundry or rock the boat, even inadvertently.
  5. Should note that even the Reddit OP says RUMOR a couple times about the funding the Tempe "No" campaign. Wouldn't surprise me. I found this interesting too: This sounds like, to put it in Reddit terms, r/OhNoConsequences.
  6. You know, that's not a terrible idea on the surface. I'm not sure he has the chops to be a skater coach, but Marty is awesome.
  7. Well, hockey forum: @Richard is it "Rich - erd" or "Ree - shard"?
  8. If you're asking yourself, "Should I stay or should I go?", I say you should stay.
  9. Is the help several teams suddenly fold and are declared ineligible for the playoffs?
  10. It's a tough sell though, buying 18 seats just to take the immediate family out is quite costly.
  11. He's done it before, right? LR and DB I'm pretty sure, probably others.
  12. Probably not, but we're in "these 4 teams all need to lose the rest of their games and the Devils need to be worse than we are ". I didn't bother to check to see if those 4 teams play each other, if so I *think* we're mathematically out.
  13. Not being sponsored by Tsykie or Zwiec is a travesty.
  14. And make them all "trucks" so the CAFE (and safety) standards are less stringent.
  15. Pretty much. On a smaller scale, the same thing has happened on the roads, the current F150 Super Scrodozer editions dwarf versions from the 90s in every way, other than having an actual 8-ft bed.
  16. It's a dumb penalty to take. That said, I think you see that play every game, but that cat wasn't expecting it and it caught him off-guard. Otherwise, they bump and both skate away.
  17. The people that have benefited most from society can pay some extra for its upkeep.
  18. I've only been at all close to the USS JFK, which is in Philly. That's only 80% of the bigger Nimitz size ships, but was still amazingly big. You can see it and Lincoln Financial field (Philly Eagles) in this: https://www.google.com/maps/search/philly+naval+yard/@39.8945654,-75.1803881,3071m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu The ship is a little longer but half as wide as a football stadium. (The Wells Fargo Center (Flyers, etc) is just to the west of Lincoln financial)
  19. The rudder is so huge, it'd require a ton of people to even come close to moving it, and cargo ships don't have a big crew, either, maybe like 20-30 people. I think I heard 100,000 tons, which is the same as the current US aircraft carriers which carry around 5000 crew. It doesn't stop on a dime, either. It sounds weird with all the Boeing stuff, but if ships were built like planes this may not have happened. There'd be requirements for separate control systems and redundant power for this reason. This was a worst-case scenario, though; it happened at one of few places where the damage is spectacular. Most of the time if the ship lost power like this, it would run aground or be adrift in endless ocean. It was a really unlucky day.
  20. I'll kinda miss the sneak onside kick.
  21. I'm going to go with the above. The Sabrepede was ridiculous in a screenshot, but it wasn't as insane as a clip as they players were only there for a second (IIRC). The above is three guys taking themselves out of the play.
  22. 10-0-0 *might*. But even then, it only takes one of those other teams (just one) to win an extra one or two over their season average to scuttle that too. Max points 93.
