Yeah, I thought you had a funny accent.

Guamish is pretty distinct, even in text.

Rinaldo this season:

Taken: 27 penalties
Drawn: 12 penalties

Awful hockey player + no discipline = really awful hockey player.

Agreed! Thing is, he's going to be replaced by a worse hockey player.

Assume it will be Newbury. It's a wash or slight upgrade.

Sbnation's power rankings have the Flyers at #10:
The Flyers are hot like the sun, which kind of doesn't make sense when you look at their possession turning into a black hole of late, and their PDO being relatively pedestrian. They absolutely dominated the Habs on Wednesday, but that was one of just two possession positive games in their last nine, during which they've lost only twice. I suppose they're getting it done on special teams, but this is very odd.

How about "Jarheads" with an outlandish logo exaggerating all the things that people attribute to Marines? Think that would offend some white people? Some people in the military? The Government?
- mayorofangrytown

I'm greek... I hear gay jokes all the time. Do I get offended lol no. My favorite joke is: how do you seperate the men from the boys in Greece? Lol with a crowbar. I think if people would learn to laugh at themselves this world would be a better place. Nowadays if you sneeze you risk offending someone!

We should all spend less time thinking about skin color, and more time thinking about skin thickness.

Is that a fraternity joke or something?

Inter-personally, laughing stuff off or turning a cheek is more than a sound strategy for dealing with ignorance. When it's institutionalized or enshrined, say in the form of a professional sports team that is a symbol of a city/region/state, then it becomes an inexcusable issue.

After he scored and was named third star of the game?

Just when I thought he turned the corner, he turned his ankle.

Most people I grew up with broke in theirmid-20s. Heck, one of the best Philly bands in the last decade (One Up) all broke edge save for the lead singer.

For the record, Youth of Today sucks.

- jmatchett383


I'm a bit older school sXe then you are..

I grew up in the Philly/NJ/NY scene when it was awesome and populated by Shelter, Lifetime, Resurrection, Mouthpiece (Can We Win still makes me want to stage dive when I hear it), Turning Point, No Escape, Vision, Gorilla Biscuits , Judge, Supertouch (not really sXe but I still listen to them)..Going to shows at Middlesex County College..Seeing Turning Point, Burn, Encounter play at Revival. Hell I still have my Inside Out CD(Zack Dela Rocha from Rage Against the Machine earlier band)..I have my poison free XXX tattoo on my left leg and while I haven't called myself sXe in over a decade I still never have been drunk, smoked or done drugs.

One of the legendary bands in the scene Turning Point during their reunion show openly admitted they were doing the show for drug money oh and the lead singer dried of a drug over dose.

People\times\style changed in the scene...

It went from those bands above to Strife, Hatebreed, Integrity and other tough guy bands..So you got a bunch of kids showing up with their militant poses trying to act all badas$ with their bandannas pulled down over their eyes..Totally dumb and a waste of my time.

So now I reverted to metal origins and listen to Emperor, Opeth, Swallow the Sun and Novembers Doom so I can feel pleasant and happy all day.

Every time a forward has gone down, Rosehill has been the replacement. Not sure why this time will be any different.
