i skip around. i really enjoy the comeback vs boston montage set to the rocky score. emotion city.
- hammarby31


Emotion city is perfect. Not only was that the best Flyers game I ever watched, it may be the best sports game I ever watched because I felt every emotion possible. Anger. Frustration. Sadness. Helpless. Then hopeful, confident, joyous and victorious all in the end. I was drained and took a nap 10 minutes after it ended.

I agree with the last part. I stayed and waited till it was awarded, then had to leave. HAD to leave.

I waited until Scotty Bowman lifted the Cup and then my son and I were mist. He was ready to go as soon as Kane scored. He has years ahead of him. That may have been my only chance to see the Cup skated in person.

How awesome would it be if Shea Weber decapitates the entire Rangers roster tonight...non-litrilly.,

Hell, if he just kills Zuccarello, I will worship him as a God.

i sat until the families started to come on the ice. then it was enough. i was just kind of numb at first, because i didn't see the puck go in, and was emotionally exhausted. it was like being an outside observer for awhile. then reality sunk in.

I still remember when Primeau scored in the 5th OT in 2000. I screamed so loud I woke the missus, the pooch, the neighbors and the dead. I was so jacked, I couldn't sleep at all. Finally around 5am I hit a 24 hour diner and had a huge breakfast and a pot of coffee. After that, it all gets kind of fuzzy.

They have leverage over medical staffs, just like concussion spotters. Falls under their umbrella but yeah, someone in there needed to put a stop to that regardless.

I agree, I heard he had facial fractures. Should have not been allowed to return.

i remember it well. i didn't sleep either. i also distinctly remember during game 5, someone from the census bureau knocked on my door wanting all kinds of information for their survey. i was all like, "ummmmm....not now."

So I've listened to Kendrick's album through 4 times now, and I'm comfortable discussing it at this point.

Please, let the thoughts roll in.

Would recommend giving GOD. a listen
DNA. is fantastic as well. Vintage Kendrick.
LOVE. is worthy of a mention. Rounds out my 3 favorites on the album.

DUCKWORTH. is the best story he's ever told, and the dude is the best storyteller of all time.

It's almost cringe worthy to watch Bob play in the playoffs, he seems to be over committing a lot.

He's clearly not having his best series. However, the team in front of him is doing him zero favors (accidentally screening him, blowing coverages, losing battles, not helping clean up rebounds, etc). Same old story for a losing side, quite frankly.

Are you on the Smashville bandwagon, Bill? I'm shamelessly on board.

Honestly have no idea who you are talking about. I'm more into prog rock/hard rock and classics like The Beatles, pre 80s Stones and Hendrix.

Kendrick Lamar?

ADHD I can listen to non stop. The group he was/is in Black Hippie isn't bad.

He's the best alive.

Then there's Logic, Chance, and Cudi

Then there's J Cole and Eminem

And it doesn't matter outside of them
