Eleven

NJ is putting on a clinic on how to get the other team to take stupid penalties. Unfortunately, Carolina (wearing their stupid "Canes" sweaters) has 3 shorthanded goals, but still.

This part isn't me. This part is. They have more time and resources than I do, that's for sure.

I get you, and I don't think you're far off. But they have different and better information than we do.

We knew this without the post. You can grill in cold weather Chz! Also on the sloppy Joe:

He blew her a kiss. WIth five fingers. 5. She, of course, is giving him a single finger. 1. The Oilers' social media team grasped not only that Karen was being Karen, but also the number of fingers on each hand and the 5-1 score. Love it.

I've always waited 40 games for a QB. Edwards, Manuel, Taylor, Allen, before them, whatever. 2.5 seasons. But why not "take the word of talking head pundits, draftniks, and analytic geeks who can’t see beyond raw numbers"? They may have been wrong with Allen, but surely they have been right with others? I have a friend who was pushing for Allen in 2018, but that doesn't make him a draft expert (and believe me, this is the type of guy who thinks he is an expert in everything and actually is an expert in getting something right one percent of the time), should I trust him from now on? I mean, they know more than I do. And they do seem to be right more often than not (Mel Kiper notwithstanding.) They spend a year doing this stuff, and I spend about an hour and a half. So why are they unqualified?

I was at a packed sports bar; the entire place deflated and went silent on the word "Allen," myself included. No one tried to start a fight, though--what was that all about?

If he's available, he certainly could be the "tactics whisperer" I've wanted. They'll have to take it out first.

This is brilliant by the Oilers

OK I'm going to just communicate on that particular topic via PM now. As for the title of the thread, I currently am drinking a peach LaCroix. I believe it is a current vintage. Lunch was croquettes a la Chz, with a nice lime dipping sauce.

I think my insomnia problem is well-known to regular posters here, so again, I'll welcome any suggestions; I don't like the stuff but if it works, it works. @Ogre

Yeah 'cause it was his fault the Rags made bad draft decisions, FA signings, and crappy trades. Hmm...reminds me of something.

Levi's going to start if he wants to, no worries.

If only there were an O' in front of that last name...

It was only "not legit" for about 90 years in the history of the entire planet, and then only to imprison black people and, later, anti-war people, so why would you not think you'd see the day when it became RE - legitimized? I mean, I don't care for the stuff very much (see above), but I greatly care about the reasons it was made illegal.

Most of that stuff keeps me awake and anxious, to be honest. Even the indica blends, although I haven't had pure indica in a very, very long time. But if there's something specific you can recommend--preferably an edible--I'll try it.

It constructively tries to improve the other weed.

It is interesting--and I think it's especially British. I don't see people (either pro-or anti) in other European monarchies (and there are a lot of them) going nuts like this over a coronation

It's a tournament for toddlers. OK I'll fix it again.

Alex Tuch (and his brother) will be playing for Team USA in whatever the IIHF tournament is called. Sorry--melatonin is starting to kick in. OK. Fixed title. Goodnight. Also isn't it like 5 am in Nova Scotia?

Again, all I've got...

Not just for the near future. You can look back nearly 30 years. NYC and TO (hi JT!, hi ROR!) are where careers go to die.

I have no idea what this means, but if you're enjoying it, I am happy. I bumped it earlier

I had the sesame chicken dumplings from Moneybags (on Chenango St.) today. Life-changing.

I thought that with the recent proposals to elect Skinner to the HOF, to trade for Bedard, and to sign Kane, it might be time to update one of our old, classic threads.
