I'd venture to say "most of them", sorry. Bad football can be great; fumbles, interceptions, big runs, safeties, etc.). Bad soccer is great because there's scoring. Bad racing has lots of crashes. It does depend, though. Bad baseball where no one can hit would be insufferable; bad baseball were the ball is flying around and fielders are missing plays sounds pretty cool.

I picked up a case of Storm King before the holidays, may have one in a few. I picked up one of these for NYE but didn't get around to opening it. http://beerstreetjournal.com/victory-jubilee/ I'll have to find a night that I'm comfortable with 750ml of 12% beer.

No kidding, In recent experience, my wife's parents up on Centerline (in Wales) tend to have a few inches more than my parents in Elma.

I don't think it was many of the boomers giving them out, but I remember hearing about them back in the late 90s. which would have been pretty early for Gen X to be tossing them around. The point is, millennials got the trophies from Gen X and maybe Boomers; they're a product of their upbringing like anyone else. Boomers have their own myopic perceptions, both figurative and literal. :)

I think you mean Gen X and Boomers; they're the ones that gave out the trophies.

Grant gets a reprieve for levelling Vesey, but to win hockey games you need to score goals.

It is, there are rules about the number of players on the line of scrimmage. Every once in awhile a tackle will get called for being too far behind the center. I prefered "Buffalo Sabrepede"

Whoops, wrong Michigan. Thanks!

Nilsson in net why not: @2385, 2 on the Sabres at +175.

I've been looking at both of those; why both? Seems like for my use (Prime Video) Roku would be fine. Is there something on the Fire Stick that you love that the Roku doesn't do?

+/- is like saying saying "I rode my bicycle 5 miles today" (I didn't, don't worry). Useful information in some ways, but if start using it to compare myself to other people without taking other factors into effect it gives a distorted picture. The guy in Kansas on a 60 degree day has it easier (no hills) than the guy riding around Tahoe (altitude and all hills) or the person where it's been pouring rain or snowing all day.

Spartanpede?

I generally like it, it fits the way we want to use TV for the most part. The only issue is some apps are somewhat limited when using it. For instance, the NHL app can't FF or Rewind when playing an archive game. You do have the ability to seek using the phone, but advancing 2 minutes past a commercial or past an intermission is finicky. Also, it'll randomly advance the game to a place which ruins the suspense (it started the Rangers game yesterday at 5:00 left in the third). I knew the score so NBD, but if I didn't I'd be "mad". Also Amazon doesn't want to play ball so Prime video is annoying. This is Amazon's fault. I'll have to see how well my Raspberry Pi does, or get a Roku stick down the road.

I'm still waiting for top shelf to concede.

- PS3 gave up on life suddenly the other day. I don't game any more and I have other solutions for it's primary functions (Netflix, Prime Video, NHL, and the occasional disc), but the interface on it was a bit smoother than Chromecast. I'm debating attempting the oven fix which is both terrifying and intriguing. I have nothing to lose, I guess. http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-fix-a-YLOD-PS3-with-an-oven/ - Sabrespace apparently blew up while I was on semi-hiatus over the holidays. - The Sabres apparently blew up while I was on semi-hiatus over the holidays. It's a weird paradox that I pay less attention to the Sabres when I'm in Buffalo; it has to be that I'm busy with other things and don't have my comfortable routine of watching the games late at night by myself.

Ugh, I haven't been paying attention lately, I can't believe it's been that long since I bet. @$2385, I'll bet once I learn the gt.

Rich was pretty rare even in my time (born mid-70s). A few Ricks, though.

No way, she's Stella. :) I loved the way they handled that recast on Roseanne and apparently the weird 8th season. I forget the exact sequence her and Roseanne were joking about Dick Sargent / Dick York and "how did they expect us not to notice".

I watch too much Scrubs, I like Eliot as a girl's name.

Au contraire, if there had been a car-tender tree it would have ended up square in the crest.

I think the voting is tighter than it looks; the Saberlectoral College has a way of distorting the vote.

Unintentional goalie equipment size restriction, I like it!

I know even less about nanotubes than kelvar and CF, but if it pans out I'm sure we'll see it in sports equipment. Interestingly, GT gear is an odd case, there aren't many sports where a player is subject to repeated impacts from a hard object. It changes the equation. For that matter, you don't really want hard armor there either or rebound control would be impossible. Marner is playing on a team that focuses more on offence. I don't think this is a case where you can compare purely on points.

Good point, I never see carbon fiber other than in resin so I didn't put together the similarities.

I know that's a joke, but I think they sold out most (if not all) of that year, and only didn't this game as they were beat badly by those same Oilers the week before in week 16 of the regular season.
