Nate Silver did a great analysis of why this is a bad idea and why the NHL should let Canada have more teams — the most obvious being that sticking teams in the middle of the desert with a “fanbase” that doesn’t know hockey from handball already has a horrific track record. Not to mention that Quebec fans are more…

Not to mention an incredibly cool guy. I live in Metro Detroit and everyone here has either had a direct interaction with Gordie or knows of someone who did. My favorite is my Dad’s.

Ugh. Burneko’s whiny anti-everything not BernieBro columns are what is bullshit. This is just an angry rant with zero substance and a lot of hate for South Park, for some reason. Probably because Burneko is a PC Bro.

I believe Enlightened was the most underappreciated show of all time. It got decent critical love, but never generated enough buzz to break through. Do you think it was because it dealt primarily with difficult issues from a woman’s point of view?
