Yeah I agree on Grabo, but damn, thinking about the high calibre Flyers players that have ended their career with freak/weird/intentional injuries over the last 15 years man: Lindros (had a decent year or two in NYR but was never the E-train again), Primeau, Foppa, and now Pronger. Jesus. In every case, those guys were THE GUY on the team when they went down. That is some hard luck.

Be careful getting those down. As you age you can lose some hit points stretching to reach stuff.

I sold all by D&D stuff to a buddy of mine when I hit 16. Kept my dice collection though. Something about access to a car, a little bit of freedom from the parents, and "parking" with catholic high school cheerleaders took my mind off my level 17 dwarf king. My buddy still games avidly. He is/was all into warhammer and who knows what else these days...though I am pretty sure he still gets out the classic AD&D once in a while.

I think I stopped at 15 or 16. All I have are the books and one tiny little paladin I used to play. I've no idea where any of those kids are today. My brother-in-law is all over that stuff though. He brings them at holidays and paints them. He's 45.

Actually since his mom backed off and I started handling his school stuff we're pushing for the honor roll and college. His lazy @$$ is all that's keeping his grades down.

Never buy "environmentally friendly" flame starters and never wear a replica jersey near an open flame

Yes we all have to aspire to something. I'll try not to be too envious of you both.

They are currently all getting stoned. They will return right after Pitbull is no longer on the screen. Might be awhile. But man are you "IN" for it!

briere for shatterkirk is a fair trade imo, if you put them on a scale its even, briere gives a true post season hope to a real contender, shaterkirk fills a huge hole for us

Anyone notice the better zone entries last night. A lot less dump and chase, nice short crisp passes, a more cohesive transition game, possession in the O zone right away resulting in more quality scoring chances. Those are good signs that chemistry is building. Gagne really suprised me last night. He played amazing on both sides of the puck, his speed is still there and he generated a bunch of chances.

Yeah go back over the last 10 pages or so and read the argument between me, MJL and the Dentist because apparently MJL & I are trade Nazis.
