K-9

Bite your tongue! After what Detroit did to the Ravens on Monday night, they get my vote for top of the heap.

Try to enjoy the journey in the meantime. I’m looking forward to watching a ton of Amerks this season.

I attempted to clarify something for the MAGA brethren in another thread but the topic was shut down so I thought I’d clarify it here. Some in this forum seem to think that when I compare this administration to fascist regimes that I am making the comparison to the NAZI party and the NAZI party only. That is simply not the case. Perhaps it’s because I frequently cite Goebbels’s propaganda tactics? That is only because Goebbels is a readily recognized player in fascist history. There are others that I’ve studied over the years and they are all similar in their ideologies and tactics, especially where propaganda, the muzzling of the free press, and the control over mass dissemination of information over airwaves are concerned. I urge people to broaden their knowledge base and study the fascist regimes of Franco and Mussolini as well. Both had well funded and powerful ministries of propaganda in Spain and Italy, respectively. Both had politically astute and charismatic men heading up their respective propaganda efforts: Ramon Serano Suner in Spain was one of Franco’s Ministers of Press and Propaganda. Italy had guys like Galazzo Ciano and Alessandro Pavolini. You can bet the framers of the Project 2025 manifesto havE studied past fascist regimes. Far be it from me to convince MAGA to stop whistling past the graveyard and renounce anything this administration does or how they do it. But nothing informs like history and that’s all I’m doing; informing.

I disagree. For all intents and purposes ABC did tell the government to stick it with the reinstatement in and of itself. And Kimmel’s monologue further underscored the victory for free speech. What he said last night was far more insulting to Trump and MAGA and so far, no new threats to revoke licenses by the administration. But ultimately, there are no “winners” when it comes to 1st Amendment violations. That said and as you alluded to previously, I think money played a prominent role in Disney’s decision. Apparently, they were swamped with complaints and subscription cancellation requests by their customers.

Free press having to sign a “pledge.” More MAGA absurdity. https://thehill.com/policy/defense/5515829-pentagon-press-restrictions-criticism/

Funny you mentioned that because I thought he looked a tad slower getting to a couple of pucks/areas on the PK last night.

They wasted little time having it removed. I guess bronze just wasn’t orange enough. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/09/23/trump-epstein-protest-art-national-mall/86310895007/

I have no idea if that’s correct spelling or not. I was wingin’ it.

I thought Rosen had a few good moments as well tonight

Helenius was gassed at the end. Great effort.

He was good

Chintzy call.

We are gonna like Helenious.

Yep. Better question for Marty might be do Tage and Norris have enough skill to play with Benson. It has. Nice atmosphere at the arena tonight.

Benny with a beautiful dime to Tage.

Was Kimmel sought out, punished, and network licenses threatened by the government for exercising his free speech on government regulated airwaves? The answer is obvious. And that makes it a 1st Amendment free speech issue. And of course the almighty dollar always plays a role, regardless.

Will the hypocrisy ever cease? The organized and politically connected Proud Boys and Oath Keepers are every bit the “terrorists” that the unorganized, not politically connected as ANTIFA. And lets not forget Trump pardoned roughly 1,500 convicted or charged terrorists who attacked our capitol, beat up law enforcement officers, and committed sedition by intentionally stopping an act of Congress.

I’m rooting for a tie.

Way back in another life long ago, I frequently traveled to Portsmouth, NH and it is still one of my all time favorite places.

Unlike Power, I don’t think we’d regret trading Muel for one second. I think Mrtka is better than him already. Can we send Muel back to the WHL as well?

Talk about setting a low bar.

Made a nice little play to find Kulich and pick up the secondary apple on Quinn’s goal.

98-0, baby!
