Still my fav.

I remember when he died and HBO played all of his specials in a row. I stayed up all night watching them.

He did some poop that was so amazing. I don't think there will ever be a better opener than "how come all these anti abortion crusaders are women you wouldn't want to (frank) in the first place"

I never heard that before, but I just read the full transcript of it, and it's one of the best pro-choice arguments I've ever heard.

Isn't sales in general unethical?
- Jsaquella

sales is unethical. I bet 90% something is exaggerated to get the deal done.

i saw him perform live once. funny mother(frank)er. love that guy.

Saw him a whole bunch of times, he was the best!!

"And I say 'he' because, believe me, no woman would ever have allowed poop to get this bad."

Pacioretty?

In hindsight drafting, sure. But I don't know who they would have picked with McDonagh off the board.

and on a side note- leafs writer says one of the 8 destinations kessel would go to is philly. I know I'm personally not intrigued by it, huge cap hit, giving up assets, his lack of playing defense. That being said, if it happened, I wouldn't be all that pissed (assuming the leafs didn't fleece us)

If you look at the 8 teams on his list it really makes his limited no trade clause a complete no trade clause. All of the teams are pretty much cap strapped.

If he wants out and they want to trade him he's going to have to open up that list to make it happen.

Nice reference.

As long as he doesn't wear sandals a la Sonny Milano, I'm on board with him.

you do realize that's the tagline for the entire franchise history?

The Philadelphia Flyers:That would have been sweet!

shocked with all the baseball talk in here yesterday there was not a single reply to the NYT link about the cardinals being investigated by the fbi for hacking into the astros network.

Yeah


dammit

Someone (maybe you) brought it up before.

Quick question: I heard they were looking at things like scouting reports. So, unless they were looking to "steal" a player that they like but the Astros don't, this seems like a case of laziness, not caring to do your own scouting reports of other teams' prospects. Is this what they were after? I'm not sure what they were trying to gain.

Probably looking to see if the Astros had the same book on guys, or determine if they could get an edge in trades, by knowing how much the 'Stros liked a particular player

Too bad the Cards skimped on their hacker. He should have been better about covering his tracks.

I liked that other sign they had, that more or less said, "Conform and like it, or get out," that was posted in their locker room.

Selling something that doesn't work to be people who don't need it and can't afford it
