  1. Does Lou's annual fire the coach and take over while he was in NJ count?
  2. And his wandering ways where he finds himself (RJ voice) "Way, WAY out of position".
  3. Maybe. I don't think the D is as bad as HHDCRGDDB's system makes them look. The roster for the system is hopelessly flawed; I'm not ready to hang GMTM until I see these players on a system that works to their strengths. If there's not a new coach by May 1st, and GMTM has a say in it, I'm ready to fire everyone.
  4. If I were more motivated, I'd make charts with the Carious (TM MattPie) teams and they ranges they could finish, but frankly I'm not going to waste any more time on this team until they start playing more interesting hockey.
  5. That's the big question, right? I think it has to be his system, as we have more talent than Carolina (the team in the "good" pictures), but they're in the same place in the standings. If anything, the long pass requires more talent than we have, making short passes with 2-3 options is an easier play than hitting a guy with and he knocking down an 80-foot rocket.
  6. He's feeling it. The question is will he be one of those guys that excels on his first chance in the league and fades. Also: inevitable.
  7. Hearing D-Lo's name a lot tonight. Playing his old team must be a thing for him. Lehner needs to get up faster.
  8. Comment One: best analysis I've seen on a message board? It might be the best I've seen anywhere. Holy cow. Comment Two: It's going to be sad when you don't have time to do these from school, work, or spending time with a person getting squelchy.
  9. Hey Jochsie, Lindy even hit you in the head with a stick? Were you wearing a helmet? Yeah. Lucky!
  10. I did, but that was before I knew Duke had spy cameras in the backboards of their practice gym.
  11. In untied skates.
  12. I dunno man, Double-dub wants it bad this year.
  13. I have to think Ren is in the sights of upper management; she may do the right thing but her employees are running wild. Shows a lack of leadership, they need a new core.
  14. Maybe HHDCRGDDB finally implemented the D scheme on the 9th and final whiteboard 3 weeks ago and the team is trying to learn it.
  15. What multinational bank is in W-B?
  16. This will be the year we don't match up well against the Rangers.
  17. Normally, that's "done!" for our street. Yesterday they came by a few times, I was surprised.
  18. I'm with you on writing basic HTML, but I can't imagine writing a modern web site in HTML < 5.There was a reason people used flash back in the day, it was way easier and had more features than what you could do with HTML.
  19. The raspy low vocal register, commonly associated with young women in the past bunch of years. It's probably something you're completely used to but didn't know it had a name. Google up "faith salie vocal fry" for an informative look.
  20. Mapping this to "real world" workplaces, I think most people have seen A> managers that haven't kept up with the times, and B> employees that do their own thing regardless of what management says. How you feel about that depends on your perspective, I suppose. In my industry, Bylsma would be the manager that sticks to mandating that the company's web presence be Adobe Flash-based because the hardest thing for a web developer to do (10 years ago) is write good HTML code. All the data showing that mobile is huge and doesn't play well with Flash would be ignored. Jack is the new hire with all these crazy HTML5 on continuous development Cloud systems ideas that can't get his head around doing the way it was done 15 years ago because it doesn't seem to work on today's web. Just saw this, apropos: 75% of people leave a job due to conflicts with bosses. http://www.peoplefluent.com/blog/people-don%E2%80%99t-quit-jobs-they-quit-bosses
