Seen a guy do this in my league about a month ago. Bench clearing brawl. Guy came off the bench and was gonna attack a guy from behind. A guy body slammed him just as he got there. His shoulder was separated so bad it was in front of him

TSN frontpage says Maple Leafs have too much pride to tank. Somebody should tell them the only way to avoid tanking is to have too much talent. - JohnFergusonJr
I love experts on that kind of thing. Like Sasquatch experts. I used to be addicted to Coast to Coast AM, love that poop. - Zezel
Those experts can be very convincing when you have a bit of a buzz on.
Wife thinks I'm bat poop crazy when I watch that stuff, but then I just throw out "You watch the batchelor/ette madness, this poop has a way better chance of being real."

I wish there'd been more Cylon action (the robot ones) in that show. That was a (frank)ed up show, I might have to rewatch it. - Zezel
Yeah, a great remake.....check out the movie, "The Plan". Kind of encapsulated the Battlestar Galactica saga in a two hour movie. The other two movies associated with that series, that were quite good, was Razor and Blood and Chrome.

Yeah, I don't think individual players are ever going to actually throw games. It's their career too, they're playing for contracts and so on. They're not tanking, they're just playing hockey and losing anyway.
Actually, the Nazi's where experimenting with Jets at the end of the war. They had prototypes that they where flying, when the war ended. None ever got into wartime action. - PrinceLH
Not true - the Me262 saw action towards the latter part of the war.
That's the kind of attitude that has made this Franchise bankrupt and a laughing stock. While the teams from small markets continue to play this game, the big market Leafs have to be the shining example of fair play. Makes me toss!

It's almost better for them to just say they're losing on purpose rather than trying to win and not being able to.

Cool, yeah I wanted to check those out. I watched the whole series in a binge a few years ago and decided to hold off on the rest for a while, because it was pretty mind-bending by the end. I never did check out Caprica, but it didn't last long anyway.

The Nazis did have special battle ships strictly designed for fighting the americans. However they got greedy and went faster then the plan called for, thus the ships weren't ready

Caprica is touched on in a movie and a one year series. It's also part of "The Plan".

I like that he uses Michael Caine. Actually I did like the Prestige.
But c'mon, what the (frank) was he thinking casting Anne Hathaway as Catwoman? That was terrible. He clearly makes female casting choices with his weiner, he has a clear type, and that hurts his films. - Zezel
She was fine. Selina Kyle was supposed to be blonde, but other than that she played the part well.

6-1 Jets. - Zezel
It's all lip service anyway. If they had pride, it wouldn't be this bad to begin with. Everybody knows none of those guys are going to block a shot with their face for a game and a team that is meaningless. The best they can hope for is just not to get blown out every game.
I'm just hoping they go back to losing 5-4 because at least their offensive stats get padded and maybe they can get a little extra out of it when they get traded.
