So, the majority of the NHL’s play-in series have concluded, and here’s what we know so far:

  • Montreal did the Lord’s work & knocked out the Penguins;
  • Arizona validated Gary Bettman’s (BOOOOO!) relocation strategy by knocking out Nashville;
  • Calgary the same by beating the V.2 Jets;
  • The Blackhawks gave the Oilers another chance at ruining a #1 overall draft pick; and
  • Miracle of miracles, the Canucks avoided shitting the bed, and now get the reward of either Dallas or St. Louis in the opening round.

But Columbus did not do the rest of Canada a huge favour & beat the Leafs in their own arena, thereby preventing the CBC & Sportsnet from fellating the team the rest of the summer. We now have to sweat through Game Five Sunday night.

Once the full playoff matchups are decided, you will get my sound analysis of each series complete with accurate GAMBLOR predictions so you can turn good money into free money.

Looks like I’ve got Hippo’s attention.

I am home until 2021 for sure. In my line of work, social distancing is difficult in the processing plant and we have been operating on 58% attendance compared to last year. Winter is going to be worse.

Hey there you are! I didn’t see the post until way later, but I wanted to tell you how sorry I was about Mildred. No matter how old we get, that never gets easier. She had a happy life, and you loved her for all of it.

I’ve watched 5 minutes of the Ice Eagles/Ice Bucs game and I cannot help but think, when the hell did the Ice Iggles get this good?

When they took their entire top 6 out behind a shed and replaced them entirely with top prospects

should specify defense here. THey were so bad and old for so long. I think Pronger’s contract just ended like 2 years ago.

That makes more sense. I was going to say, G, Voracek and Couturier is still the top line.

Carter Hart probably helps, too

Can not emphasize enough how much I don’t trust any Flyers net minder, no matter his performance so far

Makes sense. Though from what I saw from Carter Hart during his Junior A days, he’s likely legit

Gretchen’s off visiting Biden in Delaware. If she becomes VP, Carlin Gilchrist will become our new governor. Not only will he be the only Black governor in the country, he’d be the youngest by 4 years, with DeSantis second at 41.

yeah right

Had a gyro plate with hummus and falafel. Not sure there is better cuisine when done properly. The salt of the feta, the brinyness of the kalamata olives and the tang of tzatziki. God damn. The gyro meat was nice and savory. So many places wimp out and use mostly beef for their gyros but this was heavy with the lamb. Awesome stuff.
Now let’s drink things!

(watching The Longest Yard (2005))

Now that everyone is starting to “correct” past mistakes, are we ready as a Society to discuss how the latest version of “The Longest Yard” portrays all prison inmates as either violent or homosexual, portrays all homosexual inmates as extremely effeminate, and implies Adam Sandler has both the look and the acting skills to pull off being a former NFL Quarterback?

The furthest from the truth is any acting ability associated with Sandler.

At least we’re both in agreement. The first two are just a comedic exaggeration of a trope at the expense of two vulnerable subsets of people. The last is just plain wrong!
