Looks like Hitler 100%

Notre Dame.

Well done!

Bad form.

Well said, thanks for posting.

A strange book. The only winning move is not to butter.

True, but did Atlanta ever really develop that much fan support? Reading up on it, seems like team support was much less the issue for QC back then so much as it was rising player salaries and the lack of a lucrative media partnership. Perhaps this time around with the salary cap and the fact that they’d be owned by a…

Looks like it was permitted in the past:

They won the WHA’s championship and then a few division titles. Might not seem too glamorous to an outsider, but I’m sure the fans appreciated it.

Wasn’t sure, just went to look. Pretty cool, actually seems like the potential new ownership group is explicitly aiming for “Nordiques”:

If Quebec City wins, is there any chance they would get to take back the Nordiques’ name and history, or does that firmly belong to the Avs now?

This is a very good comment. Well done, and thanks for the insight / story.

So would this basically make him the PG version of Wade Boggs?

True, but that’s not what I was arguing. Guy obviously wasn’t a “lifelong Chicagoan,” yet chose to misrepresent himself as such, while talking down to everyone for enjoying a once in a lifetime level of sport that he feels too cool for. I’d hope you’d agree that doing so was incredibly douchey on his part. Go Hawks.

Buddy. I live in a freaking shit bungalow a stones throw away from the Dan Ryan, which also happens to be my profile picture. Figured you would’ve recognized at least that, since it’s the main road you take to get home to your parents house in either Tinley or Northwest Indiana.

Hahah, you should’ve just kept your mouth shut. Roscoe Village = the ultimate, “hey mom & dad, going to live in the city for a few years!” neighborhood. Again, just shut the fuck up and enjoy the Cup. You’re a guest here, now and forever. Don’t forget that.

Geraldo clone. There’s a whole Al Capone’s vault full of vats where they grow them, and occasionally farm them out to provide local and not-asked-for news coverage.

10 bucks says you’re posting from Naperville, Palos, Tinley, Indiana or some other loser-ass suburb. Yeah, “lifelong Chicagoan.”

Yeah, I agree with your assessment, as well as Kevin’s above. I just really like mobster / crime movies. Because the Corleones can kill a Pope, and Kevin Costner can bust DeNiro for tax evasion, then I’ll still root the Feds/Swiss can dramatically arrest Blatter as he walks up for his re-coronation.

Any chance the Feds / the Swiss are just waiting to see the outcome of the vote before making their next move? It would be pretty awesome if they nabbed Blatty on his way to the podium to accept reelection. This whole FIFA scandal is playing out like a Godfather Part IV* script.
