that is hilarious!

 

?It?s great to know we will be on television next year,? Bettman added, smiling as the NHL?s new studio team, consisting of Rachael Ray as head hockey anchor and Bill Clement as game analyst, collaborated in an attempt to equate the offsides penalty to ?zesting up? a pan-seared T-bone steak. ?Thanks, Food Network.?

 

priceless

This better be a joke. Its gotta be. There's no way Bettman could be this stupid this early in the day. Otherwise, the Yokes on me.

 

Can't fool you, can they?

 

Best part:

Johnson said that the network's first hockey-related profile will focus on Sidney Crosby eating veal and creamed spinach prepared by Roker On The Road host Al Roker.

"We liked the idea of having hockey because it has two halftimes," said Food Network president Johnson, adding that the first game on the channel will feature the ceremonial dropping of an inaugural homemade Italian meatball at center ice by honorary referee Mario Batali."

I'm going to assume you're being serious. The Onion is a parody newspaper. For example, when the first three blade razors were coming out, The Onion ran a parody on new 5-blade razors as a joke.

 

So, it's just there for pure enjoyment. :)

Man Who Plays Devil's Advocate Really Just Wants To Be a#$^$#!e

March 9, 2007 | Issue 43?10

 

 

COLUMBUS, MO?Though area graphic designer Derek Sills says he plays devil's advocate to help his friends better understand opinions different from their own, sources close to Sills claim he takes on the dissenting role merely to be an a#$^$#!e.

 

"Now, I don't actually believe this or anything but, for the sake of argument, let's say your girlfriend is just dating you for your money," Sills said at a party last Saturday, after asking a group of friends to consider that the telephone may have been a "stupid invention." "Just playing devil's advocate here, guys, but perhaps slavery is the reason African Americans are so successful in sports these days."

 

According to sources, Sills "crossed the line" when he asked if their friend Jamie's mother might have deserved to die.
