  1. My opinion of Def Leppard may be even worse than my opinion of Cruise.
  2. I'm the same way with Cruise. I can't get past the guy's ego either. Let's buy the movie rights to Jack Reacher so I can be the lead. I'm the perfect choice to play that 6'5 mountain of a man!
  3. You could have kept the old door and gone for sabre colors.😁
  4. It was pushing 70 here. so maybe it was a good choice not to go through the metal fence gate right next to it.
  5. It wasn’t a big spark, but enough to catch my attention. It was right next to my brand new aluminum fence too, so I decided no to leave the backyard through that gate.
  6. I was just trying to sneak I. Some yard work before thunder storm rolls through in an hour or so. About 5 feet away from me the downspout on the gutter gave off a big spark. Then coincidentally there was some thunder a few seconds later. I decided to get the hell out of there and head inside. Can a charged atmosphere cause a spark on a gutter like that?
  7. Give that kid an A!
  8. It will be a very happy day in this house when my son learns that one.
  9. Did the poll include how many Americans know what a theocracy is?
  10. But then again I guess it would be governed by a completely different CBA since we are talking about AHL contracts. What does wind up happening with a lot of the college signings is that they get a deal that starts the following year but then they get immediate AHL or ECHL time on an ATO.
  11. I guess he was able to completely divest himself from the international crime syndicate.
  12. I'd say that hopefully people are made very aware of this horrific rule ahead of time. But even still, that's right around the Christmas season where people specifically choose that game because they'll be in town. It really is a giant FU to everyone. And then there's the players who suddenly lose 3 days of prep time.
  13. The hit looked incidental to me, two guys turning into the same space.
  14. From what I can find, ATOs are eligible for the playoffs. Teams will do it all the time, they give the player their ELC after the college/junior season, but it doesn't start until the following year. Then they play on an ATO, unless more recent CBA changes have eliminated that. Google's not being my friend right now, but I've got a story up right now about how Jack Campbell played with the Stars' minor league team on an ATO in 2012 but he had initially signed his ELC in 2010. The only limitation of the ATO is that it expires after a specific number of games.
  15. Don't they typically give them the ELC but then have them play on an ATO?
  16. I mean, it does say "AHL contract".
  17. I've only been to two comedy shows in my life. The first a friend of a friend, the oddly named Bob Marley. The other was a post-bat mitzvah gathering for my neighbor's daugther. That last one was very interesting. There were two comedians and neither had ever done a show with a room full of mostly kids. The first rolled with it and made so many "ask your parents about that one" comments. The second was incredibly awkward because of it, constantly starting jokes and then just saying "oh wait, can't tell that one".
  18. I love every so often when this comes up and people have no idea that Blackhawk was a person.
  19. I wish we could fire posters.
  20. Can you confirm that Levi is not in fact a vampire?
  21. My wife calls it a directional. It was a big source of jokes during the superbowl party.
  22. I'd imagine that the process is slightly different given that it's his first contract/first time working in the league. But yeah, it still seems like a crazy amount of time. Clearly they must have found a ton of skeletons buried in his closet, some sort of international smuggling ring in his family's past. He may in fact be a supervillain or even an alien.
  23. I apologize in advance, but I have to say it... That's no way to speak about your wife.
