the max

I'm just tired of this shit happening to the Bruins without getting any gift calls in return. Seems that it always happens against Philly and the Scabs. EDIT: And I wasn't aware that a stick being in your hands made you unconscionably lose your balance and fall on your ass. Fucking divers, the Flyers.

Fuck these refs. That call on Kobasew on the tying goal wasn't a joke, it was an entire fucking comedy routine. Kobasew makes contact, Giroux kneels down, Kobasew gets an interference call. Awful. Fucking awful.

Between this last paycheck that was much higher than I thought and my taxes, I'll be adding roughly $2500 to my various accounts and balances. Yesssss.

Unfortunately it's not rational people making the decisions, it's a group of "Ohh! Won't somebody PLEASE think of the children?!" maniacs who condemn him for doing something most of the country has done in their lives. But because he's an olympic athlete he's supposed to forget about doing anything fun for the rest of his life. Everything he ever does now has to set an example for some idiot kids who are probably going to smoke worse things than some pot out of a bong at a college one weekend.

Just recently.

I'd rather just watch old Match Game on GSN.

Bruins had a shit game tonight. They have to win these games handily against teams like Ottawa.

Sure. If you like watching show after show on Hitler and Nazis.

Lopsided for who? Neither team has done anything. At the very least, Ottawa can at least ship out Kuba who is having a career season. They got a first too that might end up being between 26-30. Tampa got an overrated defenseman.

Hockey: The only question is who is Bobby Orr's defense pairing on the top unit. Robinson, Potvin or Lidstrom? Could debate over who's in net too. Roy? Hasek (count me in for Hasek)? Dryden? Is it undebateable that you'd have a top three of Howe-Gretzky-Lemieux? I'd go Howe-Gretzky-Lemieux with Orr-Robinson and Hasek.

Maybe they're going for the "most American's don't know or care what's going on in Darfur MAAAAAAAN!" angle and don't feel that an african warlord would be easily recognized by most of the idiots on the street. Although I was bothered by him telling Funny Looking Secret Agent "Do not kill him, bring him to me" on a train with people sitting right behind him. Little things like that bother me.

Paging Mr. Citrus. The front desk is looking for Slim Citrus.

That waitress is sure in for a surprise. Either Dubaku kills her or she gets tortured for information by a desparate Jack or Tony (or Renee?).

Good action tonight. The assault on the dark room was fun, stealthy Jack f/ Renee was well done. Dead Gas Man was kind of meh.

Gauthier got five games for his elbow on Gorges. If you haven't seen it. I think we pretty much covered it in the january thread.

That clothesline at the end seemed kind of brutal I guess. I don't know.

The amnesia in the first season is the only downside to an otherwise fantastic season. I still like the show but to be honest, it jumped the shark years ago. I stick around for the action and Jack Bauer one-liners. The stories are so far out there it's impossible to take seriously. I'm disappointed in this season though. I was really hoping for Jack/Tony for longer. Evil Tony looked great.

You mean chess right?

The team has been in the shitter for what? Three years? Two coaches fired mid-season, underachieving stars and an expensive core. How does he still have a job? I'm baffled.

How did Murray even survive this?

Pedro in 2000 had this: 18-6, 217 IP, 128 hits, 32/284 bb/k, 1.74 ERA/291 ERA+, .737 WHIP, .6 HR/9, .4 BB/9.

Those jerseys and socks were fucking hideous. Awful. The jerseys are bad too.

That call wasn't ticky-tack. Sedin put his stick on Koivu and pulled him down.

absolutely right. outside of komisarek, no one plays a gritty game. i don't mind montreal as a franchise but this current time is almost as unlikeable as the early 21st century maple leaf teams. almost. they're embarrassing. kovalev slept walked through the game. The best thing is that Latendresse was on the ice for that hit. He's allegedly going to be Montreal's next (first?) power forward but he can't step up for a teammate? I remember last season he had no problem stepping in and being rag-dolled by Chara to get some powerplay time during a horrifically officiated Bruins/Scabs game. But after seeing a teammate get fucking drilled, he's got nothing. It's a team of Tin Men. I understand that he's better offensively than say, Lucic. But if someone stepped up and smoked Andrew Ference like that, made him get all dizzy and shit, Lucic would gleefully hand them their ass. Any real power forward would.
