The know-it-all's were Butsy's catalyst for leaving, per his one-year anniversary Tweet earlier this year.

Is the word all's supposed to be plural? Or is this a typo?

Well remembered. I kid ASF about that from time to time on Twitter.

Because I am trying to make a big Twitter name for myself.

Coincidentally, that is also why my Twitter handle has so many letters -- so it's a self-made big name.

Hey, I'm the one trying to make a big name for myself on twitter, apparently

i'm wearing number 72, for 2 reasons, neither of which have anything to do with Bobrovsky. it's my birth year, as well as tribute to the 11 slain Israeil athletes during the Munich Olympics that same year (about a month after i was born). and my last name is Hodes - pronounced like Otis, but with an H and a D (not like Rhodes with no R - not that you need to know that :lol.

23 didn't leave for a specific board related reason, I believe his issue was work blocking the site/instituting strict net rules.

Good luck, Jon! I hope you have a great trip -- and don't have any fans tossed out like we played together in 2008-09.

It's the cockroach one from season 4. I have all the dvds, but they're all streaming on netflix anyway.

I'm trying to remember an episode. Well, the start of an episode. There are people driving down a road late at night, and at some point there's a big alien (red, maybe) standing in the middle of the road.

Ring a bell?

Heh. Seeing as the term is hypenated and all cannot be pluralized, it is correctly hyphenated to denote a plural of a figure of speech.

Horrible thing to happen. It's also sad that's what the city is kind of known for now. I've been there and it's just an amazing place.

I thought that mission was accomplished(?). If not, my mistake. I thought you were Da Man over there.

Yes.

Or maybe not. I dunno, let's wait for Editor Bo to get here and add her $.02. I'll edit my posts accordingly and we can all laugh over it if I'm wrong.

i think butsy just got tired of the arguing and negativity, he's a good dude
- Don'tForgetTocchet


I don't understand this. First people say back in the day it was cut-throat, but then they say these cool people got chased away because people argued? What did you guys do before me and MJL got here?

Hexy sux...

I agree...

Cool...

Yea....

Oh Lindros is great....

I don't agree...

Okay...

Yea....
