He's casting a spell on you, brother's cousins (assuming the it's just a typo and not a different spell) would also be Harry's cousins. Did Harry's parents have any siblings?

Yeah, it looked like Myers was feeling it with the skating at least.

The PS3 app does keep the scores off, at least. I've found that you can kind fast forward using the D-pad to skip ahead a couple minutes at a time. But you'd have to do the math on where you should be (45min per period, 15 per intermission is my rule of thumb).

I was thinking about this the other day, but didn't figure Tallinder would be available. If he's only signed for another year or two, I'd say it's worth a shot. Although I didn't think Myers looked better paired with Pardy. Leopold and a prospect for Tallinder? How is NJ set for offensive-minded D?

Fixed that for you.

I use naughty bits, lady parts, and wedding tackle as part of normal conversation. EDIT: In fact, from the Bills thread regarding Manti T'eo:

I thought the same thing when I heard that clip. It's taken a long time and it wasn't just that quote, but Lindy has finally lost me. Maybe his system works with the right players, but Buffalo doesn't have those players and I don't want to watch the hockey that it creates. While I didn't watch all the game last night (Ottawa), I thought Myers was, to a certain degree, "feeling it". Maybe Pardy is the security blanket he needed, but he was skating well and showed a few flashes of that rookie season. He even put that awkward hit on #15 to make a play. We'll have to see if he can build on that, or if he'll get paired up with Leopold again and be a further disaster.

The new Gamecenter app on PS3 is an abomination. I'm really rather mad about it. None of the specific buttons on my PS3 remote work (play, pause, etc). If there's a way to fast forward, I don't know what it is. And worst of all, the time marker doesn't seem to advance on it's own. So if I'm behind watching a period, when I try to skip forward 15 minutes thru the intermission I have to guess where I was in the stream and add 15 minutes from there. The marker will be where I last moved it, likely the beginning of the previous period. The Web/PC version and Android version are tons better. I'm guessing they 'forgot' about it during the lockout or something, since I can't believe this was the final version they wanted. Last year's app was a ton better.

The other day I noted somewhere: there are people that can buy cigarettes and vote that weren't alive the last time the Bills won a playoff game.

Parros wins, it was fairly even, but Parros really stunned Scott with that last punch. I'm statrting to notice that if Scott is smiling at the end of the fight, I think he figures he lost that one. McCormick confused Strachan by switching to the left and landed more from the looks of it.

I don't get how "b o l locks" is 'bad', but "dogs b o l locks" is 'good'.

Sekera is pretty reasonable, 2.5 * 4 years, I think? Hecht at 1*1 isn't bad.

Ah man, why would there have to be a homebrewing conference in my town with the last day on my birthday? Oh wait, that's AWESOME!

OK PP22, don't get bent out of shape. :) The point of the Myers contract was that when it was signed, it looked like he was going to be a force of nature. If you're going to pay for results, you'd be paying him $7m+ if he had continued on his trajectory. That's the gamble. You lock someone up early and hopefully that contract becomes a bargain. Sometimes you get burned (and I'm not saying Myers is in that category yet). I doubt anyone could build a team only paying players that have proven themselves; you'd have 6 F, 4 D, a goalie, and $10m left to fill out those remaining 8-10 spots. This is why GMs get the big bucks.

I had a Dodgy Neon back in college.

You just convinced me to watch this game even for the chance this will happen. Curses!

I assume you'll be doing flips in 5 years when they're making something like $5m combined then, right? FWIW, using the numbers that matter, Myers is 18th in the league and Ehrhoff is 47th (in a big tie). Regehr edges Ehrhoff by the cost of a base mid-size sedan to be 43rd. Myers isn't worth the hit right now for sure, I don't mind Regehr and Ehrhoff.

Speaking of calendars, there's a public Sabres one for Google calendar. Shows up in my browser (www.google.com/calendar) and on my Android phone with the games and times.

I don't know what I'll do (besides bawl) when that time comes for me, really sorry to hear it. :( We played a rousing game of "Hipster or Waldo costume" on Halloween night several years ago out at the bar. Also: http://hipsterorhomeless.com/

I'm flattered.

You're using the internet wrong. It's sole purpose (after high-speed delivery of images of naked people) is for people to b1+ch about things they can't change.

Rask would have been questionable as starter if Timmy T. had stuck around to play this season, so he only half counts. :)

Anyone still waiting for Hodgson, Iginla, Vanek?

Heh, I think biodork lives in Mechanicsburg. I don't have any input, I only really pass thru Harrisburg on the way from my house to Buffalo, so if it's not on the highway I don't know. I did drive thru downtown once, seemed like a cool little city for those few blocks.

I'd call Lancaster Brewing Company, it's right off I-283. I'm not sure if they have Centre Ice there, but the beer is pretty good. After that, there's a Fox and Hound on the North side of town off I-81. I *know* the F&H here in King of Prussia has Centre Ice, I'd think that one would too. http://www.lbcharrisburg.com/ http://www.foxandhound.com/restaurantinfo.aspx?location=fox---hound-harrisburg
