  1. The NFL postseason rules are different than the regular season rules. I'm not dismissing your overall point because I'm a hockey purist too, but there is another league that changes the rules (though to a lesser degree).
  2. http://www.usgovernmentspending.com/pensions_spending Wage grade employees aren't "really" the problem, it's the GS and above stuff. They don't accomplish much and cost a ton. It's "Too Many Chiefs, Not Enough Indians" played out before our eyes each and every day.
  3. Why not? It's exactly the kind of thing we've been doing to other countries for decades. It's how the game is played in the real world. A big part of being successful is being able to keep your sensitive information a secret. Your "most qualified candidate ever" is literally the worst leader of an information security organization in the history of the world.
  4. http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2017/01/22/chelsea-handler-nixes-two-party-politics-im-not-democrat-anymore.html I can only imagine how this piece of human garbage would have reacted if ANYONE had used similar quotes about a Democrat First Lady or President. Keep it up, libs...
  5. Trump got more fat women to move in one day than Michelle Obama did in 8 years.
  6. How many will show up? I don't know. Let's take a poll.
  7. I would protest for $2500... Evil capitalism, baby!
  8. https://www.gofundme.com/great-tornado-to-inaugural-parade If the right was as "raysis" as the left says, they wouldn't have raised nearly $600k so a band from a traditional African American university could travel and play at the inauguration. There is ONE political party that benefits from keeping people of color down and it ain't the Republicans.
  9. I think his own shield cut him and it happened when #55 elbowed him during their initial contact. And I have absolutely ZERO issue with anyone starting a fight over a hard check on a star player. I'd lose my mind if someone hit Eichel, O'Reilly, or Risto the way Laine got hit and the Sabres just skated off like "oh well, it was clean." Screw that.
  10. It's incredibly awesome that Clinton's illegal use of personal email to perform her government duties and the Democratic party's "poo pooing" of the issue are gigantic reasons why she's not the President of the United States. She always has someone to blame for her inability to win a national election. Liberals continue to get hammered because they refuse to hold anyone accountable for their actions. Poetic justice...
  11. The owner is on the hook for paying the coach his ENTIRE contract, not the GM. So of course the owner is the guy with ALL the say because he's going to be paying Rex Ryan $15,000,000.00 over the next 3 seasons to not coach his football team.
  12. Rousey needs to either fire Edmond or retire. Her standup is still very basic and she can't avoid contact. That was a pathetic display.
  13. There are other franchises in the NHL that treat their players very well that play just fine (Detroit comes immediately to mind). This team needs some veteran grit in the locker room - guys who've been successful and have leadership qualities. I like O'Reilly and Okposo - they're really good players but we need some grizzled veteran who is a physical monster to "lead" this team. GMTM better be scouring to find the guy, preferably a minute eating defenseman. Typical Vanek defense: Stationary feet followed by a weak two-hander as his guy blows by him. So don't miss that. I do love how Detroit's announcer's blame the goalie, as if there are more than a handful of players in the world who can make a move that sharp and then roof a shot at that speed.
  14. Who cares what Mr. "I've suited up for less than half the games" has to say about anything? If he was in any other walk of life, his ass would be on the curb looking for work.
  15. Got a Prime Rib from Costco - they trussed, tied, and seasoned it. Sous Vide it for 5.5 hours at 130 then into the 500 degree oven for 15 minutes. It was freakin' perfect.
  16. At $68B, that's almost $1800 per California resident before the first train ever leaves a station.
  17. I think he honestly missed about 15 half empty/empty nets last season when Eichel put the puck through the slot/crease areas and he either whiffed completely or batted the puck wide. I understand why GMTM is enamored with him because his hockey skill is terrific but his game is just maddening. All Swedish...no Finish.
