Ever get to work and immediately get a case of the "fu¢k it's?" Yup, tonight is gonna be one of those nights.

Barry Bonds might have been the most entertaining hitter in baseball.

My kid got Rollerblades for his birthday so I dusted off mine to go skate with him. I used to skate everyday. Paper route, street hockey, skate park, jumping stairs at the hospital down the street, you name it, I was good on blades. I put them on today for the first time since I could legally drive. I felt like a newborn deer learning to walk. I don't remember the difference between the street and the ice being that extreme. Thank God I didn't fall....

Yep, I knew better. I did the same thing last year. I've gotta stop over thinking this thing. The Rangers hate scoring goals in the playoffs. How could I have picked them to win the cup? Oh well, it was fun and it's not quite over yet.

Kane Eichel Ennis Moulson Girgensons Gionta Foligno Grigorenko Reinhart UFA Larsson Hodgson Ristolainen Bogosian Gorges Pysyk Weber Zadorov I don't love this lineup, but I don't hate it either. Ideally Reinhart(I want him to be too good for Rochester) will move up to Center during the season and Zemgus will be moved to wing. I'm holding out hope for Grigorenko but would be OK with a trade. I'd also like to pick up Francois Beauchemin in free agency.

This is a good point. If my kid wants to be a plumber, or start a construction/landscaping company then I'll encourage it. I know many successful people in those industries. And they had very little college debt. I work in the gaming(gambling) industry, and while I do hold degrees, they are not necessary. In my department, entry level employees make 40k easily. I started as a black Jack dealer when I was 19 years old and over the last 11 years I've worked my ass off and worked my way up. (3 more promotions before I'm DeNiro in Casino :p ) The massive debts accumulated by college students now is enough to make you ill. I can't imagine having 120k in student loan debt. I don't want that for my child. I know I wasn't ready to decide what I wanted to do for a living when I was 18 and left home for UB. I did what every kid does. I partied my balls off! PJs, Molly's, the steer. Party 4 nights a week and hope you can make it to class. Like a lot of kids, I wasn't mature enough to bunker down and study like I should have been. I did enough to pass. After 2 years I decided to take a year off and contemplate my future. I moved home, started working at turning stone and decided I could make a career out of it. I transferred schools and worked my ass off for 2 years, full time at school and at work. Taking extra classes at work to learn more games, it was awful but I was finally mature and driven. I think that when my son graduates high school he will probably have academic scholarships waiting for him(thank God, he's got his mother's smarts) but if that's not the case I may encourage him to enter the workforce and try to figure out what he knows he wants to do instead of blowing 50k on two years of liberal arts.

Now this might just be me, but I think this is the worst draft I've ever seen. I don't think any of the players are any good(hyperbole) and the bills don't have a pick for me to care about. I did zero draft homework for the first time in about ten years because I don't care about any players in this draft. If it's just me being jaded feel free to say so. That has been known to happen.

It's a hipster word for douche.

I was holding out for the white goat head.

They are. Both teams turned into the Rangers about an hour and a half ago.
