Hey, it’s that time again. There’s so little going on that I feel like talking about so this will be a short intro and then you guys can take it from there.
The Face of a Dumbshit:
You likely don’t know this guy but you know the type. That is Bruce Garrioch (Don’t fat-shame him, don’t fat-shame him) the incredibly chunky (Damn It!) sports columnist from the Ottawa Sun. He came to prominence as a hockey guy after the Senators were awarded a franchise way back in ’92. Pretty much from Day One he sucked up to ownership and the front office, breaking stories from their perspective in exchange for access. He’s a Grade A panderer of a writer as well, scribbling for the dumbest of fans, pretending that his lukewarm takes have gravitas. But a strange thing happened over the last little while-hated owner Bruce Melnyk died and GM Pierre Dorion was fired. They were Brucey’s Bread and Butter Boys. It became incredibly obvious that new owner Andlauer and GM Staios have no use for this groveling fucktard and now he occupies the same position as the “Sens Inside Man” but he has no info. The bland open-ended statements just won’t stop coming. “New coach Travis Green will be given time to turn things around”. Fuck Sakes! The header pic is taken from an article where he comes clean, “Once it’s out there, it’s out there” he says. The Big Reveal-he’s anxious when traveling. Does he have a fear of flying? Nope. He’s just a stupid fucking putz that is nervous when he calls for an Uber or is waiting for his luggage to arrive on the carousel. THE STRUGGLE IS REAL. Maybe you’re sweating for an entirely other reason that might be linked to your diet, bozo. Ok, I’m done for now.
Here’s To You Mr. Robinson:
Allen Robinson signed with New York today, leaving the moribund Steelers offense in his rear-view mirror and walking right into the very same situation with the Giants. Tis too late now but he may want to look into Kenny Golloday’s time in Jersey.
Refs are Blind or…Motivated?:
Rick Carlisle has had enough of this guff, helping to put together a tape showing 78(!) egregious calls and non-calls against the Pacers. These damn small market teams like Indiana or say, Denver (whoops!) just can’t catch a break.
Just Another Brick in the Wall:
It was no surprise that after the obligatory post-season meeting with management Leafs coach Sheldon Keefe was let go so that someone else can have a great regular season record and shit the bed later on. I don’t wish anyone that job. Sure there are tons of high-pressure jobs out there in sportsworld but the difference is that there’s nothing else for hockey media folks to do in Toronto.
I’m out, you’re in.
Night time Falcon 9 launch as seen from my backyard
I love Palm Springs at night. The lit up palm trees are beautiful.
Pew!
Hopefully not right on my house. I think that’s part of the reason I watch these, besides nerd. Elon is a fucking idiot, and perfectly capable of a spectacular failure.
if dallas does not get one game in denver it might be over. they might have been really good on paper, but theyve looked more like the cowboys in the second half of both games and that is a fucking worry
sharks and vegas fans with ptsd are possibly seeing a familiar sight: late-stage peter deboer
that was almost one of the worst bed-shittings i’ve ever seen
Lmfao the Avs are doing it again
Look, is it my fault that high end restaurants in my city are closing down? No. Am I going to dine at them before they close? Yes.
Those government expense accounts are not what they used to be, I suppose…
I haven’t worked for the government since 2015.
But sure.
No, I’m talking about the usual patrons for these places that kept them alive. Obviously, your doing your part to keep them open.
Government expense accounts have always been shit, it must be the unscrupulous lobbeyist budgets
No, it’s your fault.
dallas stars doing their best cowboys impersonation here late
OMG, they can’t possibly do this twice in a row, right?
I don’t know why they wasted half the powerplay with Georgiev still in the net.
too risky if youre only down one with three min to go. if was still down two, yes
Found a funny:
Replaced my Tesla’s horn sound with Ronnie James Dio saying “LOOK OUT!” (randomized between the one from Holy Diver and the one from Rainbow in the Dark). So far I have hit six pedestrians with my car
Makes a note
“The closest I’ve come to that is hitting a six year-old pedestrian.” – Britt Reid
everybody now saying the jamie benn hit was clean, conveniently forgetting the nhl is trying* to get rid of that exact hit from the game
*offer expires in april, as always
Hey, Avs, anyone wanna get back on defense? That was a 3 on 1 shorthanded opportunity and goal.
Then Georgiev inadvertently cup checked Makar.
about four of them wondered where the puck went after that first shot
nearly every weird bounce, deflection, etc. (and a few own goals) have gone against them in two games and this series is going to be somehow tied with avs now having home ice
just have to survive jamie benn for another period until then
everybody loves 90s nostalgia, but “terrible ice in a dallas stars playoff game” is not a good example of that
If you’re going to make girls basketball a thing, give me some indoor soccer leagues with mad betting action.
There was some weird game on ESPN 8 with like three different soccer goals and a circular field. Still not sure whether it actually was a real thing or if I hallucinated it.
I’ve mentioned it!
I’ve wondered why JMR use a Marble League for their Ocho showcase, and not the Sand Marble Rally.
I think I saw that too. Is it called Omega ball or something like that? I watched a few minutes of it, it made no sense.
cale makar, prepare yourself with 40 min ice time and double shifts
I love how DFO turns into a sleeper hockey site when the NFL season ends.
We are sports connoisseurs and can recognize the great adrenaline filled action of playoff hockey.
RELEASE THE KRAKEN! (next season)
Dude Wennberg is killing it on the 3rd line.
Ugh, it’s tough to watch him, Geekie, and Soucy in the playoffs. These were the down line guys that got them to playoffs last year and they’re all succeeding elsewhere now.
This really should be an NHL/AFL site…
fuck jamie benn forever
of course no penalty. pete deboer knows where the bodies are buried
HTF is an elbow to the head NAWT a penalty?
playoffs.
Another feel good story

So it’s the Canadian Peter King?
Suns fired their coach after one year. It seems that Matt Ishbia bought this franchise, committed himself to being the best at doing things the old way (chucking cash and stockpiling vet talent in lieu of draft stock/youth); then watched as the league became so deep with talent that coaching and chemistry have come back in to style.
Now they’re fucked through 2030. I give the guy all the credit for taking a swing but, I dunno, maybe change up the strategy from, “WHY NOT JUST PAY THE MOST????”?
Fuck yes! More playoff overtime hockey!
That’s rocking!
Revenge of teh Vichy??
Not so much. Get your brooms ready.
THESE NEW YORK RANGERS, I CALL THEM NOAA STORM CHASERS BECAUSE THEY KEEP GOING RIGHT AT THE HURRICANES WITHOUT ANY HESITATION.
“The Wall” is damned good. You buy all the laxatives and melatonin you wants, Horatio.
Finished it last night.
Good ending.
Me, heading out of the grocery store with flowers, chocolate, melatonin, and a laxative: “Maybe I should use the self-checkout on this one.”
Mrs. Horatio:
Chopped is getting really goddamned weird
Did you get that weight loss thing? Ayds?
And they named it Ozempic when a brand already existed, which could easily been bought? Amazing.
Also, how about this – Yo Mama so fat all the aids in the world would get her skinny.
Chocolate-flavored speed?
?quality=90&strip=all
Was the melatonin for Lowratio to sleep. Holy fuck auto suggest brought Lowratio up as my second choice. HaHa
Cashier (thinking): “Not sure whether I should call the cops or ask for their number.”
Zip ties, duct tape or rope would have been the item on the conveyor to get the authorities involved..
Settle down, Mr. Reynolds.
Ever have the Love Boat theme stuck in your head. It’s like Hell’s elevator got stuck between two different circles.
We’re expecting you.
dun-dun-da-dun!
Set a course for adventure!
Now I have.
the inhaled, burning poison oak of earworms!
Well I am going to inhale some burning weed of hemp to try and kill the earworm,
Drugs are always the best available option.
But the BOOB JAYS? Wut of teh BOOB JAYS!!??
Boobs are tomorrow, sport.
I have thought it was Friday all goddamned day today. Even though Zooropa was on. I’ll see the face of God before making it to FNB(oobs)
Has the season started?
somebody best tell the #BFIB if it has smgdh
At least they’re trying, unlike my Redlegs.
Wait? The Reds are trying. Holy crap.
I see no cigars. Nor rum.
I blame the evolution of society.
Now: “WE MUST PROTECT CHILDREN!”
Then: “Kids, if I catch any of you with a cigar or rum, I’ll make you eat or drink them until you puke. Understood?” “Yes, sir/ma’am.”
No hats for bats to keep bats warm.
