The Conn Smythe is not an award for most points.

I’m all for booing Gary at a press conference, or other event. But when he’s trying to present the Conn Smythe and Stanley Cup, it just comes off as disrespectful to the Pens. Not that the SJ fans really care, since the booing continued for Crosby.

Last night, I watched the refs blow a play dead with SJ on the attack that shouldn’t have been blown dead and at least three missed icings on the Penguins.

Murray played like a good NHL starter, which is very good for someone who was in the AHL earlier this season. But he only really had to be outstanding in one series. Penguins were so dominant that he didn’t face a lot of tough scoring chances. There is an argument for him winning based on his expected vs. actual…

I loved their reasoning for their picks. “We built a team to beat Team Canada.”

So if I tackle you because I think you have something without stopping you or asking that’s OK for me to do?

He hadn’t done anything intentionally to cause alarm.

Gawker commenters have a special skill in turning any topic into a rant about rich assholes.

He may have been oblivious to the fact that it was something as serious as the President’s motorcade. But it’s hard to argue ignorance when you bike straight into a bunch of emergency vehicles with sirens on, and try to go around a cop who’s clearly trying to get in your way to stop you.

The tackle was 100% justified, not even just from a President’s safety point of view, but from the biker is about to be run over point of view.

It’s advertising. It’s not saving lives.

I just hope they realize that they can get the same result with cheap temporary buildings. The world is still going to tune in to watch the sports.

I don’t think you realize how much trouble they’re in. Maybe once they’ve stabalized a bit, but not right now. Greece’s citizens, and the Euro countries who have been supporting it, would go crazy if they spent a penny on this.

That assumes that someone who calls a Vette the “pinnacle of all sportscars” will respond to reason.

don’t judge it by what the old show was. It isn’t the old show and won’t be.

Listening to three british people shoot the shit was half the fun.

That’s actually the thing that makes me lean toward F1. It fees like a team sport, that combines engineering performance with driver performance.

That would depend on what kind of proceeds you might see. Does anyone have any info about which is the more lucrative sport?

No, if you’re going to make the statement:

I think beefcake can apply to both muscles and attractiveness. I think the latter probably spawned when big muscles went hand in hand with attractiveness for guys, but continued to get used after a leaner body was more accepted.
