The Sabres current home jersey started as a third jersey in... 2009, I think? But I’m not sure if that really counts, because it was basically a throwback, using the 1970-1995 logo with the 2007-2011 color scheme for the rest of the jersey. So, not exactly the same thing.

(That logo never should have gone away in the…

True fact: every time we get a WWE taping, show security reminds us not to kick the shit out of idiots on the field, because they are inevitably overgrown manchildren who are “just a little too enthusiastic.”

Glenn Frey absolutely is a huge dick. You could film a pre-show security briefing for an Eagles concert and then show it unaltered as a surreal comedy sketch, and it would absolutely work. The motherfucker had a LIST OF SONGS PEOPLE WERE ALLOWED TO STAND UP FOR, and we were expected to enforce it. Unless a certain…

Taht’s why you hnag yuor hat in Tennessee?

I’m not sure Susan does either.

No, government agencies are not “natoriously [sic] lazy.” Government agencies are obligated to operate within the laws and regulations that govern their operation and generally speaking have to afford due process rights to the individuals and organizations they are regulating. That means that they are required to act…

Eh, I think it’s only a matter of time. Expansion is coming, and Quebecor seems willing to spend a moderately stupid amount of money to get it done. Failing that, the Coyotes’ future in Arizona remains incredible tenuous. IceArizona is bleeding money and isn’t structured to survive longterm, and Andrew Barroway gives…

Word. The federal court system runs on a computer system called ECF. All they had to do was plug in their credit card details (or, more likely, their law firm has a funded account already in place) and submit the filing. Efficient, I guess, but bad for the flunky labor market.

Effective review, because it immediately caused me to go and the thing. It also caused me to discover that I’m still paying for PS Plus despite not having used it in two years, so bonus personal economics information!

They did. The attorney believes that the mother is, in fact, brainwashing the children. The whole thing is weird.

I’m sorry, but that’s not entirely true, at least with respect to bankruptcy. That kind of case would fall under none of the exceptions to discharge provided by 11 USC 523.

Also, I’m pretty sure individuals who couldn’t access XBL or PSN would have no basis to sue the kid. They maybe have grounds to sue MS or Sony for…

Germany had fifteen good minutes, on the outside, in the entire fixture. This was hardly rigged. Frankly, they got out-coached.

But, hey, keep on yelling about “’Murica” and pretending that FIFA isn’t corrupt as fuck if that makes you feel better about it, I guess.

Kelley O’Hara.

I keep seeing that we shouldn’t expect much Zelda talk this year. Where is that coming from? I can’t seem to find the original source.

Hey. Jimmy was the Wizard. He just played the older brother.

A week late: this is absolutely true! And it’s related to, but separate from, the origins of the Fighting Irish nickname. (Which, to be fair, are somewhat disputed, but...!)

As I understand it, as a member of a fiercely Irish-Catholic family who personally has only tenuous connections to the school, the name comes from…

God dammit, Burke. It’s rubber CHECKS, not rubber Czechs.

And as far as we know, Vanek paid all of his gambling debts, so there are probably none of those hanging around the X-Cel center tonight.

Gotta make it look like you’re trying if you wanna get paid?

Well, when Indiana conquers Ireland, kills most of the population, and espouses a policy of exiling the remainder to the shittiest part of Wexford, we’ll have a chat, junior.

Because if they don’t suck at their jobs, that’s the best way to make sure he stays down and doesn’t start running around like the Idiot on the Field he is without anybody getting hurt. Unfortunately, a lot of security guards (and, on a related note, cops) suck at their jobs, so it doesn’t always work out that way.
