Skip!

I've been trying to chase you down but just haven't til now (I hope)

Congrats on the lil' Flyers fan! I'm sure Mr. and Mrs. Skippy were thrilled. Sorry it was a fortnight late!

- Giroux_Is_God

Thanks, man! I think I saw a congrats from you on "The Big Day" (6/18), but after I was whisked into the OR for the delivery, the last two weeks have been a whirlwind. I went back to work yesterday...

First I am not Republican, I would say I am a mix between Libertarian and Tea Party. Small Government. Maybe even Conservative. I don't buy into the religious zealots, or the funding of large corporations.

And second that isn't what makes him a troll. He knows what does.

Fair enough. You like the vinny signing?

Pepsi has been my friend. The worst part was having to go to the pediatricians then the ER last Monday because he lost so much weight. Thankfully, the ER doctor at CHOP at Virtua sent us home saying there was more of a chance of our son contracting an infection in ER than a chance of him gaining weight via putting a tube down his throat. Then we had to go back last Wednesday, last Friday, and last night. Thank God he gained 9 ounces between Friday and yesterday, so it looks like he's finally on the way back to his birth weight.

That's what the S is for!

I remember that from my online dating days back in the 90's.

I thought that meant "State". I guess that proves that I never used a chatroom or message board fishing for prospective mates.

Thanks, Isaiah. I know we differ on our views of the team we root for, but when the puck drops, I know we're on the same side.

Only 10 more weeks until my newborn son starts to gain his own control of his arms. I'll be training him to shoot a puck right-handed so he and my older son can become the dream defensive pairing MOAT wants to see.

Sign Thomas

If you can get Bobby Ryan or Yandle for Coburn, Read, and picks do that, but thats it.

If not then just trade Mezzy for what you can get

Done.

thomas would be an awful signing don't want anywhere near him

Poulin. The backup is John Tavares, who could still score 35 goals as a goalie.

I think that's the best bet for Nabby. I don't know that any other team really wants to entrust their net to him -- unless it's for backup/mentoring purposes (which is what I wanted back in 2011 when the Flyers went after Bryz instead).

best defense is an offense that can score more than the defense allows

I'm sure the next few weeks will be a whirlwind too! Speaking of work....I need to get back to it....

control of his arms? has there been a congenital issue or are you referring to the usual cognitive process?

Usual cognitive process. Though he has progressed rather quickly in grabbing the bottle already.

I hope this doesn't mean he wants to be a goalie.

if he just places it down, i'd be concerned,
but if he throws it all over the place, you're safe

Just because of the treatment/assessment of Bob changed during the playoffs. I wasn't happy with the signing of Bryz, though I supported him once he was in O&B because I root for the crest on the front more than the name on the back (with few exceptions such as Holt, Bureau, and Tibbetts).

The Flyers have options. I think Nabokov and Mason would be a nice tandem.

I'm looking forward to Mason and DiPietro.

Actually, if he throws it, it would be reminiscent of Bryz this past season.





Ok, really going to the iPhone now.
