  1. It may be the smartest thing that Adams ever has done.
  2. The second a in the name is, indeed, mispronounced to sound like a short i. This would instantly breed distrust in me.
  3. They wanted it to be similar to "Odyssey" but they weren't going to be able to trademark that. And "Audacy" has similarities to "audio." Smart branding, IMO, even if they're annoying. All of the ads I hear have the AWD rather than the ODD sound on the first syllable.
  4. That's the GM's job. If, IF, Terry has been doing it, then he's not going to let a POHO do it, either.
  5. For the nth time: The creation of a President of Hockey Operations position is silly and creates meaningless layers. Someone ultimately is responsible for finding and signing players and coaching personnel. It doesn't matter if you call that person POHO, GM, coach, owner, or grand poobah. If they hire a POHO, whose sole delegee is the GM, what's the point? If they want to hire an *advisor*, that's a different story. And Amen if they're getting rid of Adams. (NOT "Adam's.")
  6. I cannot help with gaming systems, because my parents are beyond that. I can say that Yahtzee, Uno, stuff like that, and some good jigsaw puzzles have helped a bit. Also some light-level puzzle books like Sudoku. Good luck & God bless your stepdad.
  7. Omigosh I would have guessed this if asked. All of you Yes people are similar.
  8. He's young. He'll be fine.
  9. Are you keeping up with the literature that says that recently, GMs in baseball and hockey are not only dictating who plays, but also are dictating where in the lineup? But I do agree that Greenway on line 1 is likely a Ruff thing.
  10. It's Adams not Ruff.
  11. We've got a poster getting ready to invade Poland over here.
  12. Ah, I was wondering when Slaygate was going to hit this site. I'll order a pizza or something.
  13. We diverge here. I think that's exactly what was happening.
  14. Now that's just crazy talk.
  15. Thank you! I saw this yesterday but the color was off and it looked like A-A-Ron was wearing blue.
  16. Ah that was it. Well, he made his money.
  17. Was he even an OC or just some line coach? Nah, it's Pitt. I know that the OLY games got us used to TLAs because USA, but it's PITT.
  18. Good question. I see shades of 2005-06 here. I don't think the team will have the same success, but I do think Ruff is getting more out of less, which is exactly his main skill.
  19. I'd rather keep Ellis and ship one of Lyon or UPL. I think an Ellis/Levi situation might be good in the future.
  20. Keep in mind that everyone in the 1970s just looked OLD. Jean Stapleton and Carroll O'Connor were 47 when they filmed the first season of All in the Family. They looked 20 years older than I look today.
  21. Without Brown and Dawkins, WOW.
  22. Cook also is missing two starting tackles; it's not just Allen.
  23. Both starting tackles out shows on the first series.
  24. I really don't like splitting up the Tuch/Doan/Thompson line, but a Benson/Kozak/Östlund line is a little too inexperienced. It makes sense to put Thompson with a couple of new guys and Tuch with a couple of them.
  25. It was on Ch. 4. All Bandits games will be on Ch. 4 or CW23 unless televised nationally.
