MrsPie and I were just talking about this, I thought Hurricanes were Atlantic and the Pacific had other names (Cyclones, etc.). Anyone know that the rules are?

Only if The Pegulas hold a press conference detailing how he forced Murray to make the move and wanted Miller back in the fold so he could become Director of Real Estate Development and Natural Resource Development at Harbor Center when he retires.

Those dastardly Russians, taking away Canadian jobs. :)

Hopefully Big Johnson and the Sabres will burst though Condon.

With my new-found leadership abilities, I'm running for president. A chicken (or vegan substitute) in every pot.

I'm trying to lead this conversation into a civil tone, come with me. Carson isn't an idiot. He's just exceptionally ill-suited to be president.

Let's not go crazy here. The man is obviously intelligent, but being intelligent and well versed in one area doesn't mean it translates to other areas.

I remember two things about the night I saw the Headstones in NF US, the drunk guy that kept trying to crowd surf even though no one would catch him, and the wings that burned really bad the next day.

I'm heartened by the response from the Leafs after Kane ran over their Captain and drew blood. I think I did see one guy skate by with the linesman and say something presumably mean to hurt Kane's feelings. Last year he was on the second line. :)

I have to believe that the Republicans think running an African American will pull minority votes away from the Democrats. That's the only logic I can see. I know that there's almost no way I can vote for someone that appears to believe the earth is 6000 years old.

Other than "these are not the droids you're looking for", surely!

Heh, nice reference.

Hogwash. I've seen Reefer Madness, I know the truth.

I thought it was, but wasn't sure enough to say it. EDIT :D

I think that's referred to as "Video Scouting".

Every year I consider shaving for it, and every year around November 3rd, I remember that i was thinking about it. Wasn't someone here trying to get into voice work and read out some silly Sabres-related stuff in action-movie-announcer mode?

Ideal scene for me: Yoda stands there and parries every attack for a minute or so, furrows his eyebrows, and in one master stroke dispatches Dooku.

The fluffy one above is the same way. It's uncanny.

Let's say Myers and Bogo are a wash and even trade. Kane for Armia (questionable whether he'll ever see serious NHL time), Stafford (rental for two months), Lemieux (may have a Kaleta-like rep if he keeps elbowing heads into the boards), and a pick (50/50 shot to be in the NHL) isn't as bad a deal as you make it out to be. And it's not like this was happening in a vacuum, there were likely other teams calling on Kane as well. This is the kind of trade Darcy wouldn't make because there's risk of the other team getting the better of it. It's too early to tell; if Kane flames out here, WPG wins the trade, obviously. All three of the picks/prospects could wash out as well, in which case Buffalo wins. Sure, Stafford resigned with WPG but there was no guarantee of that at the time, and we'll all have to see whether Stafford was a good signing anyway.

Is that the one where Yoda bounces around like an X-games trampoline competitor? I always thought Yoda should just stand serenely as he dispatches everyone that comes into his path. "Jump around like a rubber doll a Jedi master does not."

There's no way I expected anyone a response this was a good-looking group of people. :)

Last I know, it's 24 hours from noon to noon (??). Any team that wants can put in a claim and I think the team that's worst in the standings gets the player. There may be a short-cut if the last-place team puts in a claim, but otherwise I think we have to wait.

That's cool. I'm usually a US microbrew guy these days, but there is a cool place in Norfolk VA that has a bunch of obscure import stuff, that is a fun time. If you get to that bar, make a note of what US stuff they have, I'd be curious. (we might need to take this to a different thread)

Maybe our (after a few pints) theory doesn't hold water. It makes sense that only the larger companies (like Bud, Miller, Absolut, etc.) would have the resources to ship beer between continents. Only the larger microbrews distribute to the entire US, so I'm sure none of the good stuff gets over to Europe or Scandinavia unless you really go looking for it.

Or John Linnell of They might be giants. Bonus RosePie sighting.
