That zone entry and speed attacking the space between the two defenders looked effortless—they had virtually no time to react. This all makes me wish the Oilers were any good so that they’d actually be on TV more, or, hell, just get McDavid on a team that’s actually worth a damn.

I’m left curious as to why the keeper handled that initial cross the way he did (swatting it away weakly with two hands and little pressure, instead of just going up and grabbing it), but ultimately, whatever, because Butt Goal is now the best sports highlight since Butt Fumble.

Thank you!

In the second paragraph the links to Florida and Georgia’s evacuations work, but the link for South Carolina isn’t. Did the info on the linked page get taken down?

I once threw up approximately 3 pounds of cheeses about an hour after consuming them. It tasted just as good coming back out as it did going in.

Right? I mean, I, as much as anyone I’m sure, would rather there be a couple of other things in between these three points in Nick’s personal life, but news on that front hasn’t been extensive in recent years, clearly. Honestly, it does feel good to have made “son murdered a guy” not the most recent thing on that…

I found the juxtaposition of these two facts about Nick’s life in such close proximity to be enthralling. I too am thankful for the presence of iced coffee in Nick’s life.

Always looking for #greatcontent myself. A banner day, indeed.

Thomas Steen’s son is playing in the Stanley Cup right now!

This is a great idea.

The future ‘Joey from Canarsie’ calling into WFAN at 2:00am to yell about the 5th option out of the Yankees’ bullpen. What a future he has ahead of him.

is the goal to get more stars? i just wanted to get a better look at those eyes.

I find it hard to believe that Gase couldn’t foresee how this has the potential to be a powder keg.

I went to sign myself up, and when I got to the identity verification part USPS must have thought I was my wife... so all the questions were about her. We have the same initials but not the same name. It seems like this completely pointless service that I only signed up for to stop anyone else who isn’t me or my wife…

Bowman and McDonough have been absolute shit since they’ve arrived. The Stanley Cup teams were built by Dale Tallon. It’s that simple.

41 games would make more sense; maybe 82? Maybe forever? Yeah, that last one feels right.

I can’t wait for the end of the season when we get some retrospectives on who was the poiseiest one of them all.

I think my wife said it best upon first laying eyes on Gritty: “That looks like an overweight, 40-year-old, just out of rehab version of a Sesame Street character.” We both really like Gritty.
