But on icing, you can't change lines, so the point is that you're stuck out with your line for icing the puck. Having a TV Timeout kind of kills that.

From Yahoo!- Burke got a victory of his own on Wednesday, as one of his many proposals was finally passed by general managers who agreed that TV timeouts should be allowed after an icing penalty. I don't know if I like that. How does that punish the iced team?

909 gets really defensive about the Lakers. Rose went 2-12 tonight. Ouch.

I was gonna say, EHME's question had nothing to do with the subject at hand, no need to keep pressing it. The third period of Game 7 still makes me laugh. Yes, I'm bitter.

I just wish they would being back ties. UndertakerHart is right, it IS hard to figure out clinching playoff berths. I've been trying to figure out for the Leafs and Nucks for a wihle, and it's hard. Nobody calls it that.

Czech, stop being stupid. What makes hockey great is that it's unique, it should absolutely not be like the other sports. That's what fucked Bettman over in the first place. If you're advocating for straight wins and losses, then you shouldn't get 0 points for losing on cheap penalty kicks

football, basketball and baseball don't use points or change the rules for overtime. They also didn't have ties that caused a situation where people just played for ties

As I've said before, the reason they added the overtime point, was because overtime was basically 5 minutes of teams too afraid to do anything and sitting back and playing for the tie. I don't have a problem with the OTL, since it makes it more exciting with the teams being 4-4 and going all out. Not getting a point because you lost in a shootout would be absurd since shootouts aren't real hockey anyway. When did Czech start hating the Wings? They're the team that was in my favourite hockey fight of all time- when they went after Lemieux.

I know Bettman hates to admit it, but the fans like fighting. Why would you outlaw the one thing that everyone loves? Players agreeing before the game to fight just so they can fight is stupid. The instigator rule should be abolished.

I thought the Wings were Russian. Fighting should absolutely remain in hockey. It's part of the game, and it allows the players to police themselves and to keep things from getting too out of hand. A guy slipping and hitting his head on the ice shouldn't ruin it for anyone. Anyone who thinks the standings are too confusing now is a retard. 2 for win, 1 for overtime loss, 0 for regulation loss. Not that hard. I think they should get rid of the shootout and go back to ties, but everytime I say that, we get pages and pages of arguments.

http://www.sporcle.com/games/nhlteamptleaders.php I got 22 on that one

Hulk (ang lee) made 132 million. Hulk (Ed Norton) made 134 million. Adjusted for inflation, more people saw Hulk 1 than New Hulk. I think 5 years is way too soon to reboot something. At least with the Batman series, you got the sense that they were really changing the look and feel of the series. New Hulk looked like the first Hulk, except with Toronto filling in for whatever city was in Hulk 1.

I got that one with about 2 minutes remaining

I saw that at rottentomatoes. The F4 movies make money, so why not just keep going? I know a reboot means all new cast, but I just picture the original cast acting all serious, and it cracks me up.

Yes, that's Jingus. That whole thread is ripe for Brody, I think there's a good Sandman post too

I thank you for capitalising Comedy Genius. It makes me sound more important.

I always thought a funny gimmick would be to change my name to whatever EHME changes his name to and have the same av and sig, and just post like he did and to see if anyone notices the difference. Like when 909 was Jericholic82.

Good, fuck the Bearcats

She's too old for you

3:48 remaining. Them telling you the league made it much easier

If you don't think it's worthy of a thread, then just ignore it. Not everything has to be lumped into Gen Discussion. He was a guy on the main roster, and thus this warrants a thread

Does anyone even argue that? It lost all meaning when Chavo Guerrero held it. Because really, it's Chavo Guerrero.

You sure didn't sound so negative about me when I was supplying WON for TSM for 42 straight weeks! That was before you clogged up threads with every piece of trivial news you could copy and paste from PWI. "Hey everyone, some totally irrelevant WWE developmental talent was released. Here's his tl;dr blog about it" Boy, we sure wanted to know the latest on that major news item. Actually, I appreciated him posting that. If he's posting random news in Gen Discussion, that's fine. That's the purpose of the thread. I never liked how you felt the need to clog that thread up with everything though.

They haven't lost to the Leafs recently.
