Yeah, that’s it. They could have gotten so much: high first round pick and solid prospect, or just a straight-up elite prospect, or a big package with a bunch of pieces. Getting a decent 2nd pairing defenseman for one of the best wingers in the league is brutal.

Wee Are

Eh, I still don’t think the trade is looking good now. McDavid and Draisatl (who is the most under-hyped young star ever) are why Edmonton is thriving. Larsson has been a fine defenseman, but Hall is an elite player. Two goals in a game doesn’t change any of that.

ESPN isn’t the only sports company changing the way they do business. Deadspin thought it would be a good idea to pack the site with professional video game highlights to “expand their reach” and “draw in younger, tech-savvy audiences”. Buzzwords galore in that meeting for sure, I imagine!

You know the criticism against the team must be super harsh when Drouin comes out looking ok.

If they went back to a sportscenter model that showed mainly highlights and not feel good stories and discussion among “experts” I would probably watch it again. A few months back I decided to turn it on to see what happened in the NBA the day before and I watched it for over 20 minutes before seeing my first sports…

ESPN no longer loops entertaining highlight shows. Life is miserable when your background noise is a handful of inarticulate loudmouths yelling at each other.

And those other shows where a bunch of assholes just scream at each other for 30-120 minutes.

They should have started by cutting their trash 6pm Sportscenter sc6

Back in my college years and later, ESPN was my go to channel to just have on in the background when I was doing other shit (reading, cleaning, etc.) on top of watching SC every morning or night. It was literally on probably 12 hours a day at my place. Now, if I do watch ESPN it is only if there is a specific team I…

I gotta think the sports industry is due for a correction at some point. Salaries, revenues and ad dollars can’t skyrocket forever ... can they?

“Sorry kids, I got let go - all I have left are the millions I earned in football , countless connections that will easily land me another job, and all this white privilege”

Probably taking one last opportunity to play for his home team before they move.

i don’t think the dude is broke.

These are not the only 2 options for a guy like Lynch.

If you are essential you can take as much paternity leave as you want, because you are essential. The people who can’t take paternity leave are the most interchangeable and replaceable workers.

I haven’t seen you until today and all I can say is you’re fucking irritating. Please shut the fuck up.
