I am in total agreement that it's best he was taken alive only for multiple reasons. Not just for justice. Frankly, I don't care about that. If vengeance was all I cared about a fatal shootout with police would have suited me just fine. Or a suicide.

I don't think that's the issue. There are better ways to handle the question, don't you think? She said she was thin, presumably that was obvious in her photos, and one of her questions was "would you date an overweight person?". I think one is entitled to their preferences in terms of what they consider attractive,…

This was an eternity ago, but I never saw your reply until now. You are obviously being disingenuous when you say "I'm joking!" and then add "but I'm taking a shot at hockey too!".

I agree that eliminating the instigator has its downsides. I'm just saying, it was never the case that enforcers didn't protect star players whether hits were clean or not. There was a never a code about applauding a clean hit against a finesse player and doing nothing about it. That's a myth. In the pre-instigator…

I only just now watched the clip and it's not as weird as I thought it'd be. She hears herself say it and never skips a beat. She was talking about making healthy foods affordable for busy, working mothers — single mothers arguably being the example that was on her mind. She pivots and explains the parallels between…

It looks fairly obvious to me. Perhaps the main reason it isn't more striking is because of the thresholds chosen to mark each quadrant, but particularly the 4th. It's very sparse. Only 8 teams out of 150(5 seasons of 30 teams) although it clearly correlates very well with success, i.e., 2 champions, 1 runner-up, and…

Enforcers have always policed dirty and clean hits alike. It doesn't matter if a hit is technically "clean". There are many ways to deliberately target smaller, finesse players without it necessarily being dirty and still impact the balance of a hockey game. Dave Semenko didn't just shrug his shoulders if someone hit…

You really do need to add some context here. Did he/she mean when you first first met? Because there is a difference between that and as you came to spend time with each other/fall in love. If he meant(to borrow a term from Seinfeld) that he never felt "gaga" about you at any point, and it was just a sound arrangement…

He definitely is doing it for selfish reasons, but political pragmatism on his part is still better than a scary right-wing social agenda.

What the hell does this have to do with the Leafs? Nowhere in this story are the Leafs even mentioned, and yet you've made it all about some small time/big time Toronto complex.

Definitive proof? Yeah, who needs figures such as league revenues or attendance — they shared a White House photo. Some fancy methodology you're employing there. It couldn't have anything to do with them both being Los Angeles-based professional sports teams who won a championship in the same year. Heaven forfend.

What does she do? As a career or in terms of outside interests? I would usually say these things are a result of being in a holding pattern because a person doesn't feel fulfilled(I don't mean with you, but her role in life). Nervous energy sitting around the house seeking gratification in things like eating. I…
