This is essentially how I would use Allen. Just accept that he's a boom or bust QB and let him throw downfield a lot. Either you win games by 21 or lose games by 21. The defense is going to be on the field a lot no matter what.

Here's the thing. I post Teddy in jest, but I think people misrepresent his coaching style as overly simplistic when the truth is something a little more genuine: Ted understood that a lot of what makes teams successful is individual players doing their part. Ted has always been described as a "players' coach" and typically what that means is that a coach understands and connects with his players on a personal level. There are plenty of alumni who played for Ted who still speak of him with affection because Ted's greatest skill wasn't that he asked guys to go through walls for him, it's that they did it willingly and of their own volition. Ted isn't a coach who will take you the distance. We know that. But if Ted's coaching style was a gear in a transmission, it would be first gear: the one that gets things moving. We should be lucky if Krueger is a better version of Ted.

I have renewed Blue and our draft is set for Monday, September 30th, at 8:30pm EDT.

The Cream Screamers look forward to defending their title!

Obvious problems aside, bold to imply that the Leafs aren't a soap opera.

I'll pencil you in for Blue League. It's a time suck and you have to check your lineups every day. But at least yahoo let's you auto-set lineups for the week, so you don't have to be hyper vigilant unless someone gets hurt.

I will be running Sabrespace Blue League again this year, our more freewheeling, less serious fantasy hockey league. We had a pretty good competition last year, and I hope most of our teams will return! Here is the current Team/GM list. Please let me know if you will or will not be returning this year.

Aye, let me start a new thread.

The cheapest option is: Internet: $60/mo NHLtv: $150/yr VPN (I use PrivateInternetAccess): $40/yr So for about $76/mo I get the hockey I want and nothing I don't. If I want tv I'll sign up for YouTube TV and then just cancel it later. I don't need tv all the time and it's a way better option than fighting with the cable company if I want to add/subtract tv service.

It's going to be tough. The closest I can get with PrivateInternetAccess is Toronto, which I guess would be the Buffalo market for football?

It does. But as swamp said, he's not local. Sure, but you were addressing swamp directly. Everyone else should just get a VPN.

Sure you do. NHLtv let's you pick home and away feeds.

You don't need vpns if you're outside local broadcast areas. Just get NHLtv and stream.

Watching teams from a different city is easy. They're okay with you doing that. It's watching your team *in* your own city that they make into a huge pain in the ass.

It's definitely the right move. Just sucks to see the only good player this team has had recently cast off so unceremoniously.

Damn son

None of them unless you have a cable subscription.

It was incredibly quiet. Except for the mooing cows. There was no ambient light anywhere nearby so you could see the Milky Way clear as if you were in it. We didn't have to interact with any people unless we went into West Yellowstone for food. Now that's a vacation.

Reading this post, thinking bout the cabin we had on a lake on a cattle ranch in Idaho last year...

I would rather go to sea in a kayak than on a cruise ship.

Ah, I see. So basically they are voting on whether to kick the can down the road a few more years? I was under the impression there was a bunch of stuff both sides wanted to work out in a new CBA. Why would they take the option?

I'm still trying to understand the language around this. What does it mean to "re-open" the CBA? If both parties choose not to re-open the CBA, what happens? If the NHLPA elects to re-open the CBA now that the NHL has declined, what happens?
