Jack Edwards says hello! Though I can't say I’ve ever heard the Devils crew before this, and it's not a great first impression.

And even if that would’ve happened, it wouldn’t have been quite as cool, since the Panthers’ emergency goalie is a retired NHL backup as opposed to a total amateur like this dude and some of the others we’ve seen.

The funny thing about this is that it’s Wisconsin complaining, since they were known (maybe they still are...who knows) for using a brand of ball that no one has ever heard of:

Coming from a Heat fan: not just no, but hell no.

Yeah, the Panthers announcers mentioned that the two of them had a history...which of course leads me to wonder if Petrovic has lost every single one of those fights.

He also made a 2-0 gesture to Petrovic after the second fight. At the time, the Panthers were up 5-2. I’m a Panthers fan, so I thought it was just goofy, but I can’t imagine what his teammates or the Buffalo fans think about his priorities.

Yeah, there’s a lot of hyperbolic hatred directed at Duke players (and Allen in particular on this year’s team), but he definitely deserved the flagrant foul he got on that play.

Well, Dennis Rodman tweeted that he wants the job, so I think that process is well underway:

Ranadive should just sell the Kings and buy the Rockets...most of their fans are probably salivating at the prospect of 4 players on the floor actually playing D.

Exactly. It’s the same thought I had when some writers gave Steph Curry a hard time for letting Riley play around while he was giving his postgame interviews...have you ever heard these guys? They’re intentionally being bland and spouting cliches. Watching his three-year-old daughter have fun was way more entertaining…

Breaking: NFL adds greased lightning to banned substances list starting next season.

I was speechless at Greg Olsen as a giant jar of mayonnaise. Guess the Taiwanese animators hadn’t heard of the 7th Floor Crew, or they’d have made him a tripod.

The location of that mushroom cloud makes me deeply concerned for his gastrointestinal health.

I think the Lakers’ tanking is about as stealth as this dog...

You do make a compelling case. The annoying part is when my fantasy teams have players in the Thursday game and it forces me to care, but that’s just my own damn fault.

Can we pool $450 million together to prevent the NFL from saddling us with the likes of Titans-Jags every Thursday?

I would’ve cracked up if he told Bettman that his kids will love knowing that he was named All-Star MVP.

And he did so without verging into a Hochulian dissertation (though those can also be pretty entertaining if you’re in the right mood for it). I totally get why CBS thought he’d be great as an analyst.

If you are deeply lonely before you move, changing venues doesn’t help. But if you are deeply unhappy with where you are, it may be the case that you are in the wrong place.

Seriously. I have watched hundreds of basketball games on TV and have never once been like, “you know what could help me out here? The three-point line lighting up like a damn pinball machine!” It doesn’t fill a need like the puck, and it’s not important in a strategic sense like the first down line is for football.
