    NHL 2012-13 - Half Season Thread

    Last night was the first time I felt that not having Parise may have cost us a point. Kovy and Parise were money in shootouts. Clarkson is great at what he does, scoring ugly goals by paying the price in front of the net He should not be the number #4 shooter in a finesse skills competition.

    Obviously they are not as good without Parise, they have a gaping hole at winger on the first line. Tedenby appears to be a bust, Matteau is not ready and should be sent back to Albany. Zubrus would he perfect size wise, except he can't finish and Elias can't be moved up without gutting the...

    After the disaster that was the first period, I was happy we managed to get a single point. I'm not sure what's worse, the ridiculous amounts of penalties the Devils are taking, or that the Devils seem to have better scoring chances short handed, then when even strength or up a man so far this...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    So, I played this weekend for the first time in 4 months. Killed Diablo in Inferno mode on my Barb with some build I half assed on my own where all I do his spam Cleave. I have a bunch of random gear, mostly STR/VIT, so I started to farm Act3 and even without a MF set, I end up with 40+...

    NHL 2012-13 - Half Season Thread

    That is funny, but it did get the NHL and players to agree to change the buyout proceedures. Teams can now buy out one player making over 3 million before this Thursday, so Gomez and Redden don't have to sit out the season if they can find a job. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=413602 I'd...

    Like I said, his contract doesn't run out until 2015. That's three more years at a salary of at least 7.2 million a year. I doubt he'll be around in 2018-2020 when the new CBA or TV contract comes up, but he's 60 years old and he's not walking away from 21 million dollars because he's a...

    I find it mildly amusing that people think he controls as much as he does. He's a mouthpiece. If not Bettman, the owners would have found another sonofabitch to take the heat and the strike would have lasted just as long. Once the onwers decided they get screwed on the last agreement, nothing...

    Anybody interested in a buyout pool? Everyone picks one player from each team, and most correct picks wins? Or pick 15 players and highest total dollar value of correct picks wins? Hamilton should get a team. The Leafs and Wings would not be hurt one iota, especially the Leafs. They'd...

    I was going to ask that same question, as I'm trying out different picks to see what feels most comfortable. I'm going to just head over to the local guitar store tomorrow and buy one of everything and see what I like best. Same with strings, and string size. I've read so many different...

    I had an ex-girlfriend say that to me about Frank Zappa. She decided that because of his lyrics, he was retarded and refused to allow me to listen to his music in her presence. There's really no changing an opinion or winning that type of argument. Thankfully my wife and I share 90% of...

    Homeland

    That's why it doesn't make much sense. The service at the CIA would have to happen after the funeral. Presumably the VP's wife would be busy dealing with the actual funeral and not have time to attend a memorial until after the funeral. If I'm Nazir, I have Brody wear the (still unaccounted...

    Homeland

    Yeah. I'm curious how they are going to deal with that. In the real world, it's a 16 hour round trip drive from DC to the Canadian border and back, plus time spent at the storage locker and at the forger who made Brody's paperwork. How do they even make it past the front gate after an...

    At least I got the bomb at the CIA part of my prediction correct. I feel dumb not thinking there was a third possibility of how to keep Brody around and involved in the plot. It seems a really thin premise that Nazir planned everything to happen the way it did. I guess I'll suspend...

    So I'm half convinced my wife is spying on my posts. This morning, out of the blue she comes up to me and says "I've always wanted to learn to play guitar, lets go buy one." Ummm, ok. You know I'm left handed and we won't be able to share? "Ok, lets buy two." So that's what we did today...

    I'm fucked. I can't keep a healthy RB to save my life. Started the season with LeSean McCoy, Ahmed Bradshaw, Cedric Benson and Andre Brown for emergencies because Bradshaw gets hurt. Bradshaw missed week 3, but Brown had a monster game so all was right. Then Benson gets hurt, so my option...

    I haven't seen any spoilers, and I've already made my prediction in this thread, but Brody has to die. There's no more Nazir or terrorist network to drive half the story and hang over his head. Living happily ever after with Carrie is a bullshit fairy tale. The director might as well film...

    That, and why would he continue to drive until the roadblock, with cars obviously chasing him when he could just stop and say "yo, going to hospital". It's like they hired space aliens with no concept of how normal human beings would interact with others to write this season.
