It doesn't, at least not in any way that I've heard anyone try to justify it. I've been playing hockey since I was 8, and it's the only sport where the general rule of "if someone does something dirty, you get them back by making a good play" seems to not apply. Don't tell me that NHL level players need enforcers to…

I get the feeling that this is the review that a lot of people would write. This game is packed to the gills with moments just like these, and no matter how calm and objective you try to be while explaining it to someone who maybe hasn't played, you can't help but start speaking faster and gesticulating more, because…

This just... I can't... My pants....

Oh I totally agree, but it's already mandatory for new players to wear visors, so you're gonna get those fans who swear that fighting absolutely needs to be in hockey for hockey to be good.

Still, I'd much rather wear a visor and not fight. After seeing what happened to Berard, it's just not worth the risk. Of course,…

Not trying to be that dude who talks about how visors are stupid, but if you're the type of player who is going to be scrapping, visors are going to cut you.

Yeah that's exactly what I was thinking. I know that teams have to think of the bottom line, but still, as a Devils fan, this hurts. Brodeur and Stevens were my hockey heroes growing up, and it would be awful to see Marty closing out his career on the bench of some other team.

No, the best acting comes from his teammate who sells the flop by acting angry, as if he is VERY FIRED UP because his brother was HEADBUTTED VICIOUSLY.

As shitty as it sounds, I hope she doesn't veto the bill. I hope it becomes law. I hope that all the assholes who think that this is a good idea move to Arizona, so at least we can keep an eye on our population of shitheads.

It seems like every teaser for Capcom's big, upcoming PS4 title is designed to confuse viewer with a bunch of random dialogue and rabid monster enemies, while showing off the bleeding-edge tech that makes it run

They were later arrested.

I forgot about that. Jeeeeeesus what a shot

Mass Effect 3 multiplayer had a lot of this going on. Takes the fun right out of the game.

THIS.

Just from looking at my Facebook feed (I'm in Colorado), I'd like to see stats on how many people changed their profile pics from ones with Broncos paraphernalia to those with faces that don't yet know how badly the Broncos are going to get worked.

No. It didn't really look like he pulled it backwards to me, but even if he did, I don't see how the rule itself can make an exception for doing a full spin-o-rama, but not for a well executed move like that.

That's not sadness. That's what veterans call "the thousand yard stare." He's not even seeing his brother get worked. He's remembering the last time he saw Seattle at MetLife Stadium. That's not sadness. That's the pain of seeing things that cannot be unseen.

He could have taken himself out of the game in the third quarter and it wouldn't have been an issue. That karma's a tricksy hobbit, putting him out of the game long after he could have stopped playing.

IN A STORY TOTALLY UNRELATED TO NFL VETERAN HEALTHCARE BENEFITS, VERNON DAVIS APPARENTLY VANISHED INTO THIN AIR SOME TIME THIS AFTERNOON

Clearly he consorts with filthy xenos and hated traitors. The state of his faith is clear.

"Plasti-crack" is probably the best way to describe it. I don't know how you've managed to stay clean, friend.
