The only reason the Cult of Wawa has such a foothold here is they keep to their franchising strategy in Maryland as they do up in the Philadelphia area, which I can only sum up as “blatant”.

12 years ago, the wife and I honeymooned in Europe. Sky Sports happened to be one of the channels offered at the hotel we were staying at. They had the live feed from Blackpool, and we were enamored by the score caller’s 3 pack a day rasp, especially on the 180s.

So Dez is essentially like this on Twitter at the moment:

I think it comes down to a couple of factors:

Or as the Penguins called the game last night: “Practice”.

This is good Kinja.

No, it’s definitely because DK is such a douche, apparently.

The only thing I can give Haley credit for was actually treating the OL like it was an actual commodity after the way Arians ran it into the ground. I had friends giving me shit for calling for Arians’ head after every game where it was obvious that trying to be cute by taking guys out of their natural positions only…

That’s the sad part.

Still better than Phil Simms.

Oh, it’s definitely because he’s a shitty coach. Using his time at Penn State as an excuse just provides cover for the UT faithful to say, “LOL, JK.”

Except that Fleury did help start this whole thing before one of the Wings decided to knee him in the head. Wasn’t until that Game 3 ECF shelling in Ottawa that Flower became human again last season. Part of the reason it sucked that he had to go, but I won’t say that his playoff run last season didn’t instill some…

Not for nothing, McPhee does happen to know a thing or two about putting a team together. He was GM for the Capitals, after all. Now while those teams all looked good on paper, and did end up performing consistently in the regular season, it’s that whole inability to get out of the second round of the playoffs that…

The problem in this case is that Dusty Baker just can’t get it done in the NLDS. This was a problem in San Francisco, Cincinnati, and even Chicago before he got to Washington. Sure, you can get decent numbers in the regular season, but if the expectation is to make an NCLS or even World Series, and you’re just not…

I’ve been to Craps games. They scream “O!” just like Orioles fans do.

As a transplant to the Baltimore area, my understanding is that Dundalk is a festering cesspool of ignorance and intolerance.

You obviously didn’t see The Night Manager. The People v. OJ wasn’t a surprise winner in its category (and Paulson killed it as Marcia Clark), but Hiddleston, Coleman, and Laurie were ALL phenomenal in The Night Manager. Honestly, I’d say Laurie robbed Brown (who was awesome as Darden).

I’m with you. Even though there is some impact from Vader in the story, there’s too much film that doesn’t directly deal with the main storyline that makes it warrant a place in the main canon.

Except for that law they passed back in 1989 that established the National Film Registry, which requires that a copy of the ORIGINAL NEGATIVES of the films selected are to be given to the Library of Congress for archival purposes.

For the last...fucking...time...NO BOTHANS WERE INVOLVED IN THE THEFT OF THESE DEATH STAR PLANS!!!
