When it comes to ESPN, I miss the days where the shows were actually about sports instead of the hosts/anchors. Sure, you probably liked the Patrick/Olberman combo (or whatever combination you liked best), but you were still watching Sportscenter no matter which of their million combinations was calling the highlights.

https://www.nhl.com/standings It really is the only way to see the games played for everyone.

That said, I don't think any potential deal for this team will be made with a short term point of view. There's absolutely no point to that right now and there's no way that isn't clear to every single person in the organization. If they're adding anyone for a top 6/4 role, they're adding someone they'll have control over for multiple years.

I had to double check that never been in the playoffs stat even though it's kind of obvious. Suddenly I think he should be playing for the Bills instead. Anyway, I don't know how much longer we can kick the can around on this should he/shouldn't he trade topic. I'm not so sure anyone's ever going to budge. Me, I'll still sit in the camp of those who are too cowardly to say anything and stick with the "if the price is right" mentality. I am very happy with where this offense is trending right now, but I still have no idea where the blue line reinforcement is going to come from.

You must have missed one absolutely boneheaded play from ERod than essentially sent Ottawa the other way on a breakaway. The post up thread about Lehner not wondering out of the crease reminded me of it. It's amazing how one bad play has the potential to ruin everything.

Learned a bit from her time with Abe?

The boot guy was shown lurking around while Gabriel was on watch during the previous episode. So it's a pretty safe bet that he's with the boot guy now. But why? Did they offer to fight if given supplies? Did they offer to kill Heath if he didn't hand over supplies? I'm not really sure what other possibilities there could be. Gabriel isn't too closely tied to anyone and Heath is the only unaccounted for person we know of right now.

I enjoyed that episode quite a bit last night. It was a good return for the series. I hate that I wind up nitpicking things like this, but how on earth did it take the Sanctuary so long to realize that Daryl was gone? He was able to: 1. escape 2. meet up with Jesus 3. get back to Alexandria 4. travel to the Hilltop 5. travel to the Kingdom Then the group travels to within sight of the Sanctuary... and only at that point did they discover that he had escaped. I guess that whoever let him out could have covered for him as long as possible, but finding fat Joey's body should have put them on red alert.

Yeah, that was one of the more fun scenarios they've ever went with on this show. I'm not entirely sure how Rick and Michonne got out alive after that though.

Anyone else think it's really stupid for the Sanctuary to leave so many explosives out in the open like that, even if it's meant for herd control?

Good popcorn flick, nothing more

I saw John Wick at 10:30 last night. Someone brought their 4 or 5 year old to the movie.

I just found out today that my neighbor played in that tourney in Dubai last week that Tiger withdrew from. So I officially have a neighbor that beat Tiger.

I may be seeing John Wick tomorrow because the neighbors want to see it. But let's be serious, this entire month is all about Lego Batman

If nothing else, these are the types of games you build on for the future. I don't think they get anywhere this year, but it is going to help next year and beyond.

Come on guys, give Kane some space after that tumble

Well they look good now that I turned it on Edit: make that damn good

So what does everyone think so far? I'm finding it hard to get into it so far since we have absolutely no attachment to any of these characters. Maybe Tony will change that, but they really screwed up by going with a completely original cast. And no, having someone be a distant relative of Edgar doesn't count. No one cared about him anyway.

It's hilarious that they tried to hide this with the patriots celebration.

Go spend a few hours with their fans. You'll change your tune quickly

The article speculates on now being able to make side deals related who to take and not take in the expansion draft. That's the kind of thing that doesn't make any sense to me. There's too much uncertainty at this point. It's probably just a case of the writer not thinking too far ahead before putting it to words.

That whole thing just makes my head hurt. The writer suggested that they could already make deals based on the expansion draft. How can they make those deals before a team has actually finalized their protection list? This takes the old "future considerations" clause to the extreme. I can see them trading draft picks for player rights, but not anything expansion draft related until the summer.

Which year was it when the Cheektowaga area got around 7 feet between Christmas Eve and Christmas? I know it was early 2000s. We were leaving my aunt's house in Cheektowaga right around the time that storm started. I almost never remember the specifics of storms if they don't fall on a memorable date like that one.

I love hearing the 77 stories. Meanwhile down here in NC we've had one storm all winter. It knocked out the power for maybe 45 minutes and my d-bag neighbor (from Connecticut) was complaining, calling that the worst case scenario for a winter storm.

I must have missed that diagnosis back in 2015 (just read the story now). My father-in-law lasted for just about that amount of time. That disease sucks beyond belief.
