I’ve had season tickets at the Garden for 17 seasons. I’ve witnessed a good number of fights, though a lot fewer in recent seasons.

It’s best if you punch in tune with...

I wasn’t here yet for 1970. Though coincidentally my mom had season tickets back then and was at Game 3 and 4. And she lords it over me constantly.

I’ve been a Bruins STH for 17 seasons, and I was a Capitals season ticket holder for 2 seasons previously when I lived in DC for college. I’ve seen a lot of NHL hockey and seen a lot of playoff games.

Add to that, there was never any major attack on the US manufacturing supply chains, or really threat of attack. Once the Soviets got their manufacturing farther east than the Germans could fly, they were really able to crank out equipment as well. 

It’s probably 10 at this point. I’m assuming he’s picked up ASL and Dolphin the past two days in anticipation of communicating with his teammates if he plays.

Chara speaks seven languages. I was in Prague in 2010 for the series against Phoenix and stood a few feet away from a media availability. He gave interviews in four switching between English, Slovak, Czech and German. The man’s allowed a few verbal tics.

I do agree with your point. Given the constraints of the current system, the Cubs chose the optimal decision. My argument is more the macro-economics of the game, being still designed to “screw” over players.

A change in political leadership, and subsequent changes in policy priorities, is a fundamental part of the US system. Even someone who is stress testing that system like Trump is still relatively contained by the US political system. (His longest lasting legacy will be make the federal courts a bit more conservative,…

You can’t argue logic with the sports socialists. They apparently want all teams to go back to the ridiculous 90's and 2000's where everyone threw money around at bad over steroided players.

As terrible as Trump is, he is temporary, the dying gasp of a shitty generation. Brexit, if it happens, will take a generation to repair the damage of that self-inflicted wound. 

This also happened in Connecticut, which is one of the nine states President George H.W. Bush claimed residency.  

For me, the killer isn’t necessarily direction, but crossing the dateline West to East. I’ve flown from the US East Coast to the Middle East/India a few times, and no real issues there. I’m just tired/sleepy. But crossing the dateline messes with you, even though it really shouldn’t. 

Haha! My biggest memory is that the beef was of good quality, similar to a casual dining burger, rather than fast food. This was a double edged sword, because at a casual dining place, you consider the “doneness” of the burger whereas you don’t at McDonald’s. So my New York burger which was a great patty, was medium…

It’s not necessarily the appliance that is the issue, but the issue of expectation. If a hotel is in a place that has a different tea culture than England, then there should be no expectation that the room should have a tea kettle. 

I remember looking at safari lodges in South Africa, and the only one-star review was from a UK traveler complaining that the scotch he ordered at the bar wasn’t really a double. 

When reading Tripadvisor Reviews, I automatically discount any negative review from someone from the UK. 99% of the time they knock off a star for the hotel room not having an electric kettle for their fucking cuppa. Go Brexit yourselves into irrelevance, you arseholes.

There needs to be a bridge over Connecticut that goes directly from Massachusetts to New York. One exit in Hartford, $50 toll each way. No trucks or trailers. No left exits. Minimum speed 70. 

I’ve always thought the thesis of the show was best elucidated by The Hound in his “Killers” speech to Sansa during the Battle of the Blackwater.

While Incognito is a terrible, this photo inspired one of my favorite Kinja comments.
