I wouldn’t make a lasagna joke on Chicago Deep Dish pizza, because it’s clearly a sandwich.

I think it’s prorated, though.

If I were guessing, I’d say Marner doesn’t get signed until his cap hit goes under $7.5M, even if the deal is 5/$50-55M

I mean, it was always going to wind up this way with top end RFA contracts. We could see that coming when they got rid of the cam-circumvention rules for retiring players on long deals that every guy worth a damn was going to try to be a UFA as early as possible to maximize their earnings.

Cap friendly has them $2.75M over the cap already.

The Leafs definitely won’t. There’s no way they can fit Marner before the get to put Horton and Clarkson on long-term IR

There’s the added issue of Marner only wanting to sign a 5 year deal so he can be in line to be a UFA as early as possible, where the Leafs would prefer him to be with the team for 7-8 years to spread the cap hit out.

Is it possible to register a 40 time of NULL?

Absolutely. Based on the understanding of her role and what's public, we'd all much prefer her sentencing had been similar to Paul's, though she wasn't also a serial rapist prior to the murders, so *maybe* slightly less.

Is it that Drew is picking darker ones, or is the portrait of NFL fandom as a whole becoming more bleak?

Absolutely. It’s still a sore spot in the community. The city hasn’t really grown since then (total population increase since the early 90's is like 4,000), and a lot of the people who are there grew up there.

Pretty much. That name makes me nauseous (I grew up in St. Catharines and Tammy was a friend of a friend).

Hey man, he earned that B in night school Spanish.

It doesn’t have AM/PM because it doesn’t need it.
