Unles's?

Chick fight! :D Too bad Dineen's last team couldn't be this physical. http://deadspin.com/...game-1487774717 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJmJcHOrwGs

There goes any chance of a good draft pick. How can Whaley let Marrone win games this late into the season? :angel:

That Texas drawl hasn't gotten to you yet?

This is an epic thread.

The fact that it's acceptable to alter the meaning of a word because people are too lazy to use it correctly is in itself, unacceptable. It's one thing to create new words as our language progresses, or even alter its meaning. However, making the usage of a word acceptable when used as the exact opposite of what it actually means, is lazy and unacceptable.

I think I'm guilty of using 'it's' in this thread. Now I know I'll never make that mistake again. :P I used to help out the undergrads, I didn't grade any papers but they frequently Emailed me with questions. I vast majority of them did so as they were texting me; actiononyms, no punctuation, no sentence structure. It got to the point where it was barely legible. I responded by telling them that in the professional world nobody is going to take them seriously and to re-send the Email using proper English and grammar.

People that start sentences with "So............" I've seen it a lot lately in interviews. Almost like some people have become so socially inept that they can't actually respond to the question at hand so they've scripted a bunch of generic responses beforehand. Most often this is true, the answers really have nothing to do with the question. It's a product of the 'robot' generation, learn to memorize and repeat but not actually comprehend what you're learning..... and it carries over socially. Watch Letterman, Leno, Stewart and Colbert, you'll see what I'm talking about now that I've mentioned it. YES!

When people use the word 'epic' and 'amazing' every other sentence, it really does diminish it's effectiveness. The one that bugs my to no end is the incorrect usage of the word 'literally'. "That shot that Leino just missed made me so mad that I literally threw the remote control at the TV." Really? Was there really any other way that could have been taken? Literally, literally, literally................... it literally is every other word out of some people's mouths.

Probably the most pathetic display of officiating I've seen all year in any game, in the 3rd period of the Panthers-Senators game.

OK, I'll say it............................ why do we win that game and ruin our draft position? It seems every year we miss the playoffs but be average enough to not get in the top 5. :angel:

Apparently I wasn't the only one that didn't catch it. http://forums.sabrespace.com/index.php?&app=forums&module=extras&section=legends

Psst, we can't read your mind.

Gudbranson is going to be getting a call from Shanahan for a hit on Fehr. I see 3 games for leaving his feet.

Shane Doan out for the 'forseeable future'. -'But coach Dave Tippett said Thursday the illness isn't simply a short-term concern' http://www.nhl.com/ice/blogpost.htm?id=23866&navid=nhl:topheads

It'll take a long time to even out those incredibly lucky bounces he got in his 31 goal season.

People really underestimate the value of veteran leadership, especially on a team with such young defensemen. I think Hank has played pretty well. But think about how much he has helped the others improve their game. They've even pointed out a few times this year where Hank had taken another defensemen aside, during the game, to talk to him. At this point his performance level is completely outmatched by the experience he brings to these young guys.

Well, he allowed enough goals to possibly get himself a win.

Corey Crawford being helped off the ice. Looks groin-ish.

Losman? Losman and Manuel are two completely different quarterbacks. They're not even remotely similar. (In a separate post) I'm sure it's happened before, but when was the last time one city had two professional sports teams finish dead last in their league in the same year?

What's with the inordinate amount of players taken off on stretchers this year? Over-cautious? Attempt to dramatize a hit if it goes to league for review? New regulations? Are players really getting hurt more seriously now than in the past? It used to be when you heard a player was taken off on a stretcher that it was something serious. A lot of these guys are released and make the flight home with the team.

Damn, that's gotta be quite an event for the arena staff. Pretty cool!
