Not sure if this is right or not but there's no way it's the chick from Fast Times at Ridgemont High. The chick in his avatar is much more tan.

This one is my favorite so far.

I think the Sabres should take advantage of Nylander's AHL eligibility and put him there to develop to start the season. If he's playing great give him a call up, if he's playing well and there's an injury in the top 6 give him another call up. Otherwise let him play in the AHL and develop.

What are you talking about, sir? We love Jimmy Vesey. He's the greatest American Hero since Tedy Bruschi. I heard he once walked down the street with a .... there were no survivors.

This post is full of win, just like Jimmy "top 6 guaranteed" Vesey.

He is the entitled one after all. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Vesey just demanded that Eichel pass to him and only him. I feel bad for the other guy on their line. I hear Vesey demands his lunch money each and every day, even on days where they don't even play. Kids has to take a bus across town to deliver it on a silver platter that's engraved with NHL top 6 player from minute 1 on it. I also heard he makes everyone call him Mr. All Star as well. Small price to pay to play with a proven, awesome, bonafide stud like Vesey though. Other linemate should count his blessings to be in the presence of such grandeur. Eichel is lucky to have such a great player to pass to.

Except that was back in the golden age of porn when you had to don a trenchcoat and sunglasses and drive to a smut peddler in order to get your fix. These younger folks can't appreciate how easy it is now.

I think Gionta should keep it until he leaves and then put it up for a vote.

Whenever I read stories like these I'm always reminded of the words of the great philosopher Dave Attell: Some people are against porno and I say hey, Ohio, Kentucky, and Iran. Whatever a man, a woman, and another woman with a ***** and a midget do to a donkey is their business.

What I don't get is how they can't just assume he was driving because he owns the vehicle and then put the onus on him to prove he wasn't. If I get one of those photographed tickets for running a red light they just send the ticket in the mail to me as the owner of the vehicle that matches the tags in the picture. In order to avoid the ticket I have prove that I wasn't driving it by sending in a police report to show it was reported stolen or by getting the person I loaned the car to confess and assume the ticket on their record. Doesn't this just encourage people to flee the scene?

This times 1,000. It especially irks me when they get asked about a specific player but you can't hear who and the answers go right into "I thought he played a good game. He showed good vision and tenacity, etc." It makes me listen to fewer press conferences than I normally would.

For anyone who likes Bill Burr he has a 6 episode animated show on netflix called F is for Family that is amazingly funny. It's set in the 70's when he is growing up and he plays the voice of his Dad. I'm hoping like hell they do a second season.

Whatever, man. Enjoy your victimization. That's all the right is good for these days. The mean old lefties are ganging up on me. Boo hoo. There's a war against Christmas. Our liberty is in danger. Obama wants to take away our guns. Keep up the good plight and your feigned outrage over everything. It's the new "Murican way.

He's ruled unobstructed? Are you kidding? He's had to fight tooth and nail for everything from his cabinet appointees to having the government get shut down before Grover Norquist would let the GOP out of their "never raise taxes under any circumstance" pledge. They won't even give a hearing to his moderate Supreme Court nominee even though he's the guy they specifically used as an example of a good nominee.

I think he was referring to Senate Majority Leader and chinless turtle Mitch McConnell stating that the GOP's top priority is to make Obama a one term President. You can't get more obstructionist than that. To pretend like Obama hasn't faced obstruction at every turn is living in the Republican bubble that Bill Maher always talks about.

Sounds just crazy enough to work. Whodathunkit? Gotta be better than having the Travis Junior (Reno 911) mindset that "every bullet left in my gun is a waste of taxpayer money" type of outlook.

Except the problem runs deeper than that. How many times have cops been caught lying in court, defending the actions of their fellow officers and then a video surfaces showing they flat out lied? I've seen a bunch of instances of police being indicted because of things like this in the news over the years. Now how many times do you think they've lied on their incident reports and gotten away with it because there was no such evidence to contradict their statements? To assume that it's just a few bad apples minimizes the problem. Even if it really was a few rogue cops the bigger issue then becomes enabling these guys and covering their tracks. It's not necessarily all about race either because I remember hearing about studies where black officers were just as likely as white ones to target/abuse/shoot black suspects unjustifiably. Seems like a complete reboot of the police academy/training system needs to be done with an pointed emphasis on weeding out this type of inherent bias is needed for starters.

Why should Chicago's long term outlook matter to Vesey? Chicago would probaly only want him while he is a cheap so it would be a chance for him to win a cup or two playing with someone like Toews and then cashing in on his next contract, likely with someone else. At that point he could be a still young but productive vet with serious playoff experince and possibly a cup under his belt. By the time he was able to cash in on a new contract they wouldn't be able to afford him anyway so he can look for greener pastures.

I agree. They talked about it on some show on the Science Channel a while back. It might have been an episode of Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman. One of the people they interviewed made the exact point I stated earlier. People will be apprehensive about putting it in their kids but once the kids who have the chip start doing laps around the other ones and they perceive that their kids are falling behind as a result then more and more will jump in. It makes total sense to me.

I still think 8 years or 3 is the way to go. I have no interest in a 6 year contract that only buys 2 UFA years and allows him to become a UFA at 27 or 28.

It doesn't matter. Once they start putting microchips into these kids' heads they'll be able to access the information instantly. At first people will be hesitant to do this until but once their kids start falling behind all the other kids who have the chip they'll make the appointment for their kids too. Everything will go along swimmingly until the program rewrites itself and they determine the machines would be better off without us. At that point we can all just re-watch the Terminator series but replace the ending with us losing. All bow to our terabyte overlords.

My mistake, sir. I didn't realize you make the rules. Instead of overpaying him a little now in the hopes that it will turn out to be a bargain in the future would you suggest a 4 year $16 million deal instead? I bet his agent would jump at that and then we can watch him become a UFA at 25 and sign with somebody else. A 3 year deal or an 8 year deal are the best options. Anything in between is what doesn't make sense and to get him locked up for 8 years we're going to have to overpay in the beginning.

Deal. You draw up the contract, sir, and I'll email it to his agent and GMTM and tell them to go ahead and sign it. We'll have this done in a jiffy.

He might not be willing to do 8 years at 6 million per though. In that scenario would be bend and give him a shorter term or would you scrap it and go for the bridge deal? Personally I'd give him between 6 and 7 (6.5 million by 8 years) and if that's not enough I'd opt or the bridge. Given the contract that Hedman just signed he's not likely to get a deal bigger than that after 3 more seasons so I see less risk in a bridge, especially since he'd be an rfa not a ufa.

If they offer him a 6 year deal I'll be bummed. I'd rather give him an Ekblad or Hedman type contract than a Seth Jones one, especially since it should still come in short of that (I'm thinking 8 years for between 6 and 7 million per year would be agreeable by his camp). Pay a little more now to have him locked in for his entire prime. He'd probably get a less lucrative 3rd contract from us that way too since I imagine a 28 year old UFA Ristolainen would be more expensive than a 30 year old UFA Ristolainen.
