I already tried. I e mailed him the schedule and told him I'd need that time off with pay. He didn't go for it!

That's not McCarthyism. You have to accuse your co-working of sabotaging your car and therefor have to work less hours because of the cost involved in using a taxi.

You have to accuse your opponents of anything, or everything, to change perceptions. Maybe accuse your boss's boss of trying to get with his wife at a Christmas party last year.

McCarthyism is all we see in politics anymore. Easier to accuse everyone of everything than to actually define what one stands for or plans to do.

Shark cheek is the best cut of meat I've ever eaten. Ever.

Better than veal and that's saying something from an Italian.

What's really interesting is just looking at games as wins and losses. And there could be some human error here on my part.

Looking at the CorsiFor% for each game. When the Flyers have won, they have the better of CorsiFor at over 50% 18 times. They have won when they had less then 50% in CorsiFor 11 times.

In losses, the Flyers had 13 losses when they were under 50% in CorsiFor. And they had 14 losses when over 50%. And in one loss it was even at 50%.

And what's really interesting is when the Flyers were blown out.

When they lost 7-0 to Washington, the Flyers were the slightly better team with 51.8% CorsiFor.

When the Flyers lost to Chicago 7-2. The Flyers were the better CorsiFor team with 53.1%

Trounced by the Blue Jackets 6-3. The Flyers were the better CorsiFor team with 52.4%.

Smoked by the Lightning 6-3. The Flyers had a whopping CorsiFor of 65.3%

Well, I think at times you guys were agreeing with each other. In a combative kind of way.
At this point I think you've both Caught your limit. So watch out for the game warden.

What's worse... arguing about the merits of fancy stats during an Olympic break... or arguing about CBA particulars during a lockout? Hmmmm.

That is badass. It puts the mouse in its mouth as it's falling down! You can practically see time slow down for that cat as it's moving through the air.

NFL contract on the horizon.

Yup, I'm really getting tired of this crap. No doubt we've made up for the fact that we haven't really had winter the last few years in this region. Made up for it and then some. And I fully expect Wednesday/Thursday to produce some sort of epic blizzard with power outages and evil flying monkeys.
