like every other NBA superstar, is already taking a massive pay cut every year because of the NBA salary cap.

honestly? I feel awful for him

This is SO true. I used to golf frequently with a guy I played hockey with. He laughed at the random ~70 year old guy we met at the first tee, when he did the half swing with a mid iron on a 400 yard dog leg. The guy probably beat us both by at least 5 strokes.

I played two years of pro hockey in my late teens. A few years after I met my current wife. I was an avid golfer at the time and when I broached the subject of playing golf full time to try and go pro she said “I’m down with that if you think you can do it”

Yup. Hitting range balls off the deck at my mom’s place. We lived on a very steep hill. A well struck ball would carry at least 2 blocks. So stupid.

ever heard of the 6 degrees of separation?

the strange thing is that they too had the memorial day hats. yup, a canadian team that doesn’t celebrate memorial day. with the stars on the side replaced with maple leafs.

right at the last second he thought better of throwing his helmet at Strickland

you don’t just leave it on the side of the road and have your people deal with it?

I always saw the total shift in personalities (Homer succeeding, Lisa trash talking, etc) as a reflection of the impact of competition. It changes people, even for a brief moment.

i dont believe for one second that the Sedins are disrespected around the league... unless you mean by fans? and then its not so much disrespect as it is envy. they spent most of their career absolutely embarassing other teams with their cycles.

so he didnt touch it and lost. then he did touch it and won. then he touched it again and won. nashville didnt touch it, but then crosby did touch it last night?
