A Thursday Afternoon Carpenter Existential Experience!

Greetings, hola, guten tag, ni how, and yadda yadda. I swear the month of February exists only to mess with people's sense of time, space, and perception. 2024 is already six weeks old, we never really had winter in Yinzburgh, and I can't tell if the days are getting longer (sort

Your Thursday “Asleep-At-the-Switch” Carpenter Thread

Ahoy-yoy!   I realized I never did a Stillers bye week report, but who cares. They're 7-6, will never beat the Patriots in any meaningful way, the offensive is broken to hell, and are somehow in currenth #6th seed. Tomlin Voodoo is real, ya'll. Just accept this. This season has been so

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: Senor’s Spring Break Update

Your Sunday Evening Open Thread & NHL Second Round Partial Preview

So, it's the strange NHL COVID circumstance that the second round will play out like the first - with intradivisional matchups taking place. It has actually made for quite fun hockey, as the animosity that built up over the season is coming out in the shape of gritty play, the

Your Sunday Evening Remaining NHL Playoff Preview – West & North Divisions

Like I said yesterday - this was much easier to type early than some generic Open Thread. Plus, I get to take shots at the Leafs! Now, the North starts late because the Canucks - who aren't even in the playoffs, or playing a playoff team - have to run out

Your Saturday Evening Partial NHL Playoff Preview – East & Central Divisions

In lieu of typing up something banal, I thought I would use tonight & tomorrow to preview the Stanley Cup playoffs' first round matchups. (Please ignore the fact that the Canucks & Flames are playing out the string.) Normally I save these for during the week, but thought the weekend
