They've been doing that for a few years now. It's handy for me as I don't have cable, but it only covers what's on TV in-market so I get a lot of Iggles, Jets, and Steelers, and Pats games.

No Preseason?

RosePie's annual doctor check-up this morning. Besides having her gets shots and screaming, they had us in the Flyers room. Ugh. Fat-head posters of Ghostbear, Flyers logos everywhere, orange walls. At least there's some amusement that the Sixers room is the bathroom.

I think he knows. However, Peca made a career out of what would be considered questionable hits these days. I think Kaleta watched a lot of Peca growing up and modeled his game after him.

Fun fact: if you punch the amount my parents' house cost in 1978 into an inflation calculator, you get a number similar to what it would sell for today. Essentially, it didn't appreciate. If you took that same money, and put it into an interest calculator at 7% for 40 years (average market return), you get a number nearly 4 times larger. Granted, my parents didn't pay cash so it's not a completely fair comparison, but I'd bet they'd have been paying out less per month in rent the entire time than the mortgage. Houses are like kids; don't have them because you think you should, have them because you want to sink all your time and money into them. ?

Everywhere I've worked since college has had a population of Canadian geese around the parking lot. Today as I was walking in one was loitering around the sidewalk and and it occurred to me to say to it, "Hey hoser, the Leafs suck, eh?" in my best Canadian accent. This may become a morning tradition for me.

I'm not from Philly and I'd say that too. But, cheesesteak isn't that complex of a dish that you can't get it pretty close out of a freezer.

I would have thought he'd move into one of the many big Churches downtown; he's already on the deed. I don't watch local news-ish stuff unless I'm in Buffalo, but it's amazing how much of news TV seems to be thinly-disguised advertising. I'm sure it's the same everywhere. Actually, that goes for the national morning shows too.

Weave, I never figured you old enough to refer to # as hashtag; it's pound or hash! Also, my lawn doesn't like to be walked on. I'd love if the filter put "smurf" in though, that'd be awesome. That's my read; with Skinner on the ice, CAR took far more shots from down low (Red) and the left side of the ice. It also looks like the collective right D on CAR really does not take shots (blue holes on both).

Fun fact: my last name is both a Polish dictionary word and 1:1 in consonants and vowels. -
There is some flooding going on around SE PA in places I haven't seen it before. I too live on top of hill.

No, but I have seen Weekend with Abdubu Haridi.

And Emery handled Peters too! -
The #15 jersey is now hipster-cool. Wear it with pride that you were into Jack before it was cool.

But will one or both Ahos bend to fan pressure to change their number so the sweaters are still current?

Beat? No. I think calling the cops for trespassing is the right call here. One of two outcomes; the trespasser leaves, or they get in a fight with the cops and your problem is solved.

AFAIK, no. For instance, Yank rhymes with Tank, Septic Tank, so in the UK, Americans are referred to as "Septics". I can feel the love. I will admit that I'm not sure you can rhyme the first part of the phrase rather than the second, though.

That's only halfway there. His nickname should be "Shoe". #cockney

The number Pi is a big part of who I am, in addition to as an mediocre quality member of this board. It's not odd though, it's irrational.

2 Boo or !2 Boo?

If you wanted to get rid of the Politics thread, there had to be an easier way than this.

Poor Jack & Congratulate Thorny on his Marriage Thread

I don't think I posted, but I streamed a game or two live at 7am on my phone while getting ready in the morning.
