That's an insult to 8th graders! LOL. He's an asshole.....pick on him all you want!

I think he's got you on a semantic technicality, Supa. An AR-15 is a semi-automatic rifle, not an automatic rifle. Significant difference since you have to pull the trigger to fire each round with a semi whereas an automatic weapon (like the AR-15's military counterpart, the M-16) shoots...

It's too bad that for people to be considered Finns in your country that your have to look and act like one (what....white, blonde haired and blue eyed?). America is a land of incredible diversity and it is that acceptance of diversity that that been a driving force in the fact that we are the...

Name a team that has not gone into some sort of lull or losing streak during any NHL season and I'll eat a frozen puck without any condiments. Not specifically advocating for Yeo, just saying he's probably as good a choice to succeed Hitch as anybody who is available. He's won a Stanley Cup so...

I've seen you make this type of general and prejudicial comment frequently in recent weeks and I must tell you that, to the degree that you would care since I am most certainly a white social liberal (I'm quite different when it comes to fiscal matters but that's not what we are discussing here...

College baseball doesn't get the same press coverage that either football or basketball but I can tell you right now that it is every bit as thrilling to watch as any sport at any level. Wow....some real surprises in the Super-regionals knocked 7 of the top 10 teams in the NCAA out of...

He and just about everybody south of Scotty Bowman or Toe Blake is a step down from Hitch so who would you suggest they go after? This is Hitch's last season, Yeo slated to take over next year. He's a good coach. Did an admirable job with the Wild and I watched him take the Aeros to the...

I normally ignore your consistently prejudicial views on just about everything but, in this instance, I feel compelled to speak out and agree with xfire. You seem to have some real issues regarding certain groups.....feminists seemingly being the common denominator. Indeed, simply because you...

So the Pens win their 4th Stanley Cup. Congrats to them. Hot-diggity dog for them. So, now what? What do you see regarding your team's needs and possible moves in the off-season to become more competitive? Hitch is coming back and it's obvious to me that the Blues need another big scoring...

Congrats to the Pens on winning their 4th Stanley Cup.. No Pens fans here evidently so I'm not going to celebrate for them. See new thread....it's officially next year!

Super-delegates don't carry any more voting weight than any other delegate does. What makes them special is that they do not have to cast their vote at the convention for anyone other than the candidate of their own choosing, not those who were chosen by a majority or percentage of voters in...

He was a naturally-born American citizen regardless of what his heritage was so you most certainly know nothing about which you speak. To identify this fucking asshole as anything else (other than an ISIS disciple and a full-scale member of the lunatic fringe who just happened to be a...

Quite arguably the second-greatest player ever to lace up the skates. Inventor of the Gordie Howe hat-trick....a goal, an assist and a fight. We'll miss you, Mr. Hockey. R.I.P. Gordie..... http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/11/sports/hockey/gordie-howe-dies-detroit-red-wings.html?_r=0

People who don't use their turns signals really piss me off.

I don't like the double days-off either. Why do they only do that in the finals? Having the teams play every other day should be the norm. If the travel is the problem, switch to a 2-3-2 format and the problem solved. I'd agree with that! Since I really don't have a rooting interest...

Nice to hear but as long as we continue to elect tea-party loonies like Greg Abbott and Dan Patrick this is but a small victory.....but a victory nonetheless. It will be interesting to see how the November election plays out. Texas is obviously a state with a shifting electorate that is...

Better to just use a "one-hitter" pipe. Unless you just smoke your brains out from morning until night, it really only takes a few hits to get a really nice buzz if the pot is good enough. I can make a quarter-ounce of good reefer last for a couple of months easily. Of course, I only smoke on...

Some very sage advice in that list. As an "old person" myself, the number one piece of advice I give to young people is to forget about fame or fortune as your main goals in life. That's a one-way ticket to frustration, disillusionment and misery. Instead, find your passion....something you...

Some great Ali quips and quotes here: http://www.independent.ie/sport/muhammad-alis-top-25-quotes-30040324.html

Speaking of Howard, Ali made him the national figure he became from his early interviews with him. Some very clever and greatly choreographed exchanges between those two. R.I.P. to "The Greatest of All Time" as feller states.

From a boxing perspective I would agree. From his impact on society as a whole, however, it was what he did in the years after his retirement from boxing that makes him extraordinary as a human being in my opinion. You can think what you want to about him....I shouldn't let things that others...

Yeah well you didn't grow up black in the south in the 40s & 50s either so sorry but there's no comparison. "You're better than Ali"! Yeah, right. The fact that you call him "fucking stupid" is in itself all I need to know about your knowledge of him, his life and the changing times in which...

Walk a mile in my shoes, brother. When he returned from the 1960 Olympics after winning the gold medal in boxing (representing the USA), he was denied service at a "whites only" lunch counter. Yeah he converted to Islam....so fucking what? He refused out of conscience to participate in an...

The arrival of Sam Fisher was the beginning of the great Freeones migration. That's when things started going off the rails here IMO. A number of other trolls came along, followed Sam's lead and people lost interest as the personal insults and name-calling only exacerbated. These events...

Interesting. In what way was he extremist? Because he converted to Islam? Because he refused to fight in a war that was not only undeclared and illegal but about which he had deep conscientious and moral objections? In some other way perhaps? :dunno:

Thanks for the rep, Rey. Some people should just admit they know nothing of what they speak before they start pounding out nonsense on the keyboard.

What a crock of shit. It was showmanship, pure and simple. Ali was the greatest promoter boxing ever had. Considered a major sport in the 1950s, boxing had begun to wane in popularity with the emergence of Pro Football and the continued infatuation with MLB into the 1960s. Ali...

Remembering those brave men who risked everything so that Europe could become free of Nazi tyranny. Never, ever forget!

I'd sure like to know where this passive, wimpy Sharks team was in the conference finals! Burns, Marleau, Pavelski, Thornton....anybody seen those guys recently? Penguins totally dominant....this series is over. Fucking disgusting.....pathetic effort in a must-win game on home ice by the Sharks.

Because "cashless" just means there is no hard currency....no? There still has to be some standard of value that backs up whatever your online "credits" or whatever you want to call it. Precious metals have been sought for centuries. Why? Because they are rare and extremely valuable. The...

As has been already stated, it's been largely a cashless society for quite some time now....ever since the world of computer monetary transactions became a reality. My advice is to buy as much gold and silver as you can, while you can.

Unquestionably, the greatest boxer to ever live and a man who meant so much more outside the ring. R.I.P. Muhammad Ali....sad day indeed.

Thanks for the rep, Bodie!

First off, I'd like to welcome you back to this pathetic forum, mi amigo! I hope that you have been doing well during your long sabbatical. I have missed you, buddy. Trump's appeal is based on the fact that the American people....democrat, republican and everyone in between....are totally...

One would think that San Jose's dominance from a physicality aspect would be a real difference-maker in this series. They obviously would hope for a split in PGH, then back to NoCal where they could presumably assume dominance....that would be the plan at least. Even though I would be rooting...

Hey....the better team prevailed. The Sharks don't have any serious weaknesses whereas the Blues are so dependent on their forecheck that when it doesn't work (as it didn't all-too-often) against SJ, we can't get any sustained pressure in the o-zone and it just becomes a matter of time before...

Ron White. If he wasn't such good buddies with Jeff Foxworthy, he'd simply be a skid-row drunk. As it is, he just plays one onstage.

OK, this offfside rule simply needs to be changed. Unless the player's skate is all the way across the blue line, what difference does it make if it is on the ice or not? The way the rule reads currently (I guess), the trailing skate could be lifted less than a single millimeter off the ice...

There seems to be very little interest in this thread so I'll just go ahead and take it over and state that Kevin Shattenkirk should be given his immediate release by the Blues. His lack of self-control was directly responsible for 2 power play goals that spelled doom on what otherwise was a...

I understand it is only 2-1 but the Blues must change their approach in order to have a chance here. The Sharks have done an excellent job of scouting the Blues tendencies and the first 2 goals last night were exemplary of the Sharks knowing exactly what the Blues were going to do, intercepted...

Well, "Rally Boobs" or not, we're getting our asses handed to us. We can't win if we can't maintain any sustained pressure in the offensive zone and the Sharks have been razor sharp, quick, strong....you name it. No weakness in their game right now. Impressive. I hate to say this but unless...

You're in for a treat....she'll be back again tonight! A Taylor Stevens wannabe? "Rally Boobs"! I love it! https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-puck-daddy/taylor-stevens-on-pete-deboer-vs---rally-boobs--in-st--louis-212343192.html

I feel compelled to comment that, while showing the deepest respect for the late, great Dan Kelly, Doc Emrick is without a doubt the best P-B-P man in hockey history! "....remains of the broken stick helicoptering across the ice....". :surprise: :bowdown: He's the master of his craft....the...

I don't know but she certainly was sitting in the correct seat for optimal viewing by the casual (or not-so-casual) fan. Maybe she was a plant by Hitch to keep the Sharks a bit distracted? Home ice advantage, amigo! :dunno:

Wow. Just shocked that the Bolts can lose their Vezina-Trophy candidate goaltender and still end up beating the Pens on the road in a game #1 that I fully expected Pittsburgh to win. Game #2 is critical at home now for the Penguins. Weird game. Huzzah for the Bolts!

Depends on your viewpoint. If you were watching as a casual fan with no rooting interest or, if you were a Preds or Stars fan, I would agree with you. As a Blues fan, I rather enjoyed not having to suffer through 3 hours of panic for a change. I'm pretty sure that Sharks fans felt the same...

Pittsburgh is playing like a machine right now and, objectively, they appear to be the strongest of the 4 teams that are left. Murray has been incredible.....I really thought he would be their Achilles heel but so far he has been more like the rock of Gibraltar for them. Very impressive. No...

Thanks feller but the Blues are going to have to play much more consistently if they want to continue to advance. Everyone here is ripping Dallas but all they lack is a more dominant blueline and a first-rate goalie. I know....that sounds like a lot but they won a lot of games this year. They...

I didn't watch all of it but the highlights looked like a classic. Huge win for the Preds. No one talks about them but they are a really solid team with a penchant for coming back from deficits....a great trait to have in the playoffs.

We played a sloppy second as usual and let 'em back in the game. Anything can happen in OT and it didn't go our way this time. Amazing how close all the teams left in the West are and yet each one is built so differently. On to Dallas for game 5 on Saturday.
