Yup, that was the progression for me as well....

Also: Those Mattel hand held games were also how I learned to never let your cousin tell you it's OK to put a 9-volt battery on your tongue.

LOL That was a common practical joke back in the day!

I'm certain that I lost GPA points in college because of Tecmo Bowl.

And Sega Hockey.

That's the other game console I had. Sega. Couldn't remember it for the life of me.

The beauty of the 3 div winners being seeded 1-3. Washington is tied in points and games played with us at the bottom of the conference. If they win tonight in Winnipeg, they are 5 pts back of the 3 seed of the conference with a game in hand. legit chance to make it. LOL

I'll take a autograph Rocket Richard photo, if they'll take Briere. I honestly wouldn't expect much from any team as a return for Briere. In fact I would not be surprised at all if his is not traded.

Used to love the music and noises when there was a fumble.. I'd read the flea flicker play, and use Singletary to clobber the Qb before the RB would toss it back to him not realizing I had mowed him down like grass. Fun times..

Any interest in picking up Brian Lee off waivers? Not a huge point guy, but perhaps he'd be better than Gervais as our 6th/7th d-man. We have to have a high waiver priority, being so close to the NHL basement.

25 years old, former 1st round pick of the Sens, 6'3" 205Lbs, righty. Signed through next season at a decent price, 1.25mil.

I remember I laughed when Ottawa picked him over Mark Staal. Kopitar went a few picks after Lee as well. Lee was in Crosby's draft year. I was working the top 30 prospects green room that draft. Should have went Tonya Harding on Crosby, he was 20 feet away from me when drafted.

You never heard tell of the Tonya Harding wedding night video? Holy moly...it's depressingly funny.


They show it to people who have erections lasting longer than four hours

And no, I'm happy to report I have not heard of it and that I will not be seeking to track it down anytime soon.

i understand that. after hearing how tocchet actually answered the question i'm not as annoyed at him, to be honest. seems possible that those phoenix troubles could be what has tocchet even making those comments, though. much ado about nothing if you ask me
