All I want want to know is where’s Barry with his “SERIOUSLY ITS THIS YEAR” caps story?

There’s plenty to get uppity about when it comes to NHL referees and interference rulings, but this one seemed pretty straight forward to me, even as a secondary preds fan.

If there are two things I’ve learned, it’s this:

The fake pictures looks way too much like Milo Ventimiglia and that is offensive and tragic to Milo, our national treasure.

FYI he’s already come out and apologized for calling it “gossip” and even clarifies that the word is an inappropriate reflection of the situation.

Attempting to self-educate... what would be the perfect response to/punishment for Shaun White in this instance?

I know what to make of it: it sucks. Screw Gary Bettman. Screw the NHL. Screw Brian Gionta because he’s so old and a 21 year old career AHL’er would probably be better.

Can I get a photoshop of Tom Savage in fencing response, still holding a football? (or two footballs, if the space makes more sense)

I don’t get why people don’t understand this. For crying out loud one of Melee’s largest pillars was an accidental development glitch in wave dashing. Pillaring with falco was a great example of broken combos that people hated. Throw loops with climbers or juggling space monkeys with jiggly. It’s a broken game. If I…

I feel like this is the closest any reply will get to breaking ankles.

Astounding goal. Had to watch it three times to convince myself he wasn’t offside.

Can confirm: professional players don’t act this obnoxious. And in soccer, if you called someone a dirty rat, you would almost certainly be given a red card.

I don’t know about everyone, but most of the people I know still bring up on a monthly basis about how much Drew Bledsoe sucked, how much we hate Harry Sinden, or how the Red Sox will still probably miss the playoffs if they’re in 1st at the all-star break. We like our fancy dog Tom, but just thinking about Drew…

That’s because at least new englanders will say their team sucks with equal unbiasedness. If you suck, get out of the way.

I don’t think think people outside of NE understand this. We’ll go back to sportsman meaninglessness soon enough but we’re gonna enjoy it for now.

As a fellow new englander, I can assure you none of us care and will crucify our sports teams WAY quicker and harder than anyone else when they’re inevitably self-destruct.

I was equally shocked about the position of corn chowder. We need an official deadspin list of chowders.

This is a good question. Embellishment in hockey is viewed differently than “Simulation” in football/soccer. Hockey referees are generally encouraged to penalize players who “exaggerate the severity of an incident” (any hockey referees, please feel free to add context to this). Football/soccer referees are taught to…

The starting XI can be changed up until the point that the kickoff happens. If Evra was named as a starter, they could substitute him prior to the match beginning, wouldn’t be charged a substitution but they would NOT be able to name a different substitute. (IFAB Laws of the Game, Law 3.6)

Even if it was her teammate, NC #15 deliberately not attempted to play the ball and they probably would’ve kept the flag down anyway.
