I think that the run they have been on is anything but fraudulent. They're playing a lot better hockey. They're going to the net, working hard, supporting the puck. The changes that Berube made are evident and being embraced by the whole roster.

They can also be better. They still take too many penalties and they're still having issues with taking their foot off the gas.

I do think they need a good, mobile defenseman with good puck skills-especially in transition-to take the next steps.

I never saw that...I will have to check if it's on Netflix.

I'd be willing to offer Simmonds/Laughton type guy for him. My views on the Flyers are similar to Bradleyc4's...I don't want to move Giroux, Voracek, Schenn or Couturier.

Although adding him would give Hal Gill and Kimmo Timonen a friend to go to the Early Bird Senior dinners at area diners

Louis CK gives a ton of credit to Carlin. He says his career took off when he started to follow Carlin's advice of throwing away his material every year and starting over. He said it forced him to dig deeper each year and get more personal about everything.

This is a more polished version of Baseball vs. Football

It'd be funnier if I didn't hate football almost as much as I hate basketball.

That being said, clicking around his other stuff- hilarious. The "4 Groups That Gotta Go" has me howling
