  1. Sounds like Gibbons is going to get an interview for the manager position in Houston. https://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/report-ex-blue-jays-manager-john-gibbons-interview-astros-opening/ This actually makes a lot of sense. Good veteran coach, great personality to have in a difficult situation.
  2. I now how that feels. My sister and I discovered some absolutely delicious ice cream cake south of the border so we decided to hop over and get some. Customs agent was unimpressed with how we were using our time, said it looked like "ordinary ice cream cake". In her defense, it did look like that....just didn't taste like it.
  3. Snow day, Part 2. Although the kids are off too this time so no 5 glorious hours to myself. I'm sure we'll find some fun in the snow though
  4. Had a dream I was playing hockey, in net specifically. Guy came in on a breakaway and scored....may have woken up the wife trying to close the 5 hole
  5. Gotta go out and get me some Connor Hellebuyck horseshoes.
  6. Man, Detroit is getting thumped again. Before today their goal differential was -75. That's over twice as bad as the 2nd worst goal differential. #obvioustankisobvious #enjoypicking4th
  7. My drive this morning was perfect. Everyone was taking due care and being cautious. Started to see that patience crack a bit on my drive home. I say that last time the roads were bad too. Some people have the patience to drive bad roads for 1 day, then after that they lose it even if the conditions are the same.
  8. Using technology in game, in real time to cheat is a huge nono. The art of deception is important to baseball. The game is much easier if you know what pitch is coming, or if a runner is trying to steal etc. That's why teams hide what they are doing through signs. To use technology in game to break those signs down is dishonest.
  9. It would be dangerous for the catcher to be expecting a curveball and get a fastball.
  10. Orange make up? I always figured it was the preservatives from all that KFC that was making him orange
  11. Even better, no snow day in Langley so I get the house to myself
  12. Ah. At some point corrective orthodontics are in my future. I ground my teeth like hell as a teenager and that has transformed my bite. Fortunately I do have a choice and will go with invisalign. Not for looks, I'll gladly pay the extra little bit to not have to floss around braces everyday.
  13. The cartoon came out before the impeachment vote. He may have been successfully impeached but we'll see what the end result will be. Chances are nothing will happen as it'll be the Republican's turn with the ball. And that's the problem this whole process has been about who has the political power and not about what actually happened.
  14. I read that cartoon as politics were winning out over the truth in the impeachment process. The impeachment process is getting screwed by the politics of both parties and the truth (the part that should win out) is getting left behind.
  15. at least he was most likely safe. I'm going to go pull one from the Blue Jay thread
  16. Heh, some of us would be like: "This evens it out for the kicked in goal of '89, Messier's absolute mugging in '94, Marchand speeding bagging and Rome in '11 and all the baffling Edler suspensionz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
  17. It may be 29 years too late, but I'm going to try to make the nick name stick for Alex "Magic Beans" Stojanov
  18. I wouldn't take it personally, I guess a few people find it odd that you praise the other team's dman in the PGT. No more, no less.
  19. He was put on waivers so Mtl could've had him for free, so if it did get to talking stages it must've fallen apart due to taking cap back.
