It's been a LONG...DAMN...TIME, sir. I see beautiful things on the horizon in multiple sports for the first time since I was a kid.

Could you imagine what a Nationals vs Orioles World Series would be like? The security would be off the charts with all the politicians trying to look good by cheering for the home team. Of course when any of them are asked which team they want to win they will say the home team. That way they can flip flop as many as 7 times.:D:

pretty good value for a pretty good player.
he's going to be asked to step up big time with Suter gone

True story.

I saw this movie in the theatre when it came out. I had no idea what it was about. My mom's sister wanted to see it so a bunch of us went with her & her daughter. When the kissing scene occurred my mother actually shouted out EW GROSS!! I know the theatre is dark, but we still knew people were staring at us. I guess we shouldn't have been laughing about it during the next bit of the movie, but we really didn't care.

Well that was anti-climactic.

it was actually fairly poetic.

Bettman had to approve a $21.2 million deal to a 36 year-old declining production player
- on a bankrupt team in a bankrupt city, with no owner
- while at the same time crying foul at the structure that allows owners to over-pay on long contracts.
