I dont generally condone tanking eventhough I joke about it online, I sort of really want the team to tank simply because the chance to get Jack to join his brother and also the draft in our backyard, I can't see it not being a party if somehow the stars lined up.

This is the best thing for consumers. I remember my wife and I got screwed out of a house because the selling realtor wouldn't answer our realtor for 3 days and then finally gets ahold of us and says "oh sorry didn't see your messages we just accepted an offer this morning" oh many was my realtor pissed because he hated that shady crap. He did some digging and found out he ended up being both the buying and selling. Was a real piss off, was a nice place in Mission we would have loved to have lived but oh well, ended up with something as nice or better in the end for a bit more. I just figure realtors will go find their buddy, give them one of the clients and then get a cut of the sales from the second realtor. Concept is great but I am sure guys will find a way around it. I know many realtors who wouldn't push for trying to be dual realtors themselves but if it happened then it would just happen. Its the dicks who have buyers, look around, get a seller and just match them up instantly to make the extra quick buck.

Everytime I sit down with my wife to watch TV she asks "is there a new GOT out?" and everytime she gets mad because shes in withdrawl lol

Im getting close to 30 and between my wrist and my ankle injuries, man it sucks trying to work out sometimes. Theres days where it feels great and days where I pick up 30 lbs and my wrist is just like "nope not happening today buddy"

As good as Pierce and Garnett were, man they were at the very tail end of the teams. NBA didn't need to change the rules, they just needed to point and laugh at the Nets stupidity on those trades.

I am sure Jaylen Brown was one of the Brooklyn picks too? Either way Brown is going to be a star also, the guy has the skill and drive. Him and Tatum will be fun for years to come.

Still gave up that Brooklyn pick which was quite a high pick but overall yea they fleeced them and who knows if any other teams were even really offering much for him if he didn't resign. Those Brooklyn trades are the gift that keeps on giving. Couple down years but overall they are treanding upwards quicker than a non-bottom feeder should. Yea those 2 3's definately should have been called. Definitely a typical Warriors 3rd quarter though, lets see how the 4th ends up.

It very much is an accomplishment regardless, Boston still has many high end draft pick talent on their team but definitely would have been a different challenge with Hayward and Kyrie were there, I don't think even LeBron could have lifted his scrubs up that high. I will say this year making it to the finals is definitely his biggest accomplishment since his original debut with the Cavs in the finals prior to his Miami stint. I have Jordan as my #1 personally, I got to see him play once and it was fascinating, and maybe its just the sheer competitiveness that drove him, not saying LeBron isn't driven by wanting to win at all, but its hard for me to put him above Jordan. I would definitely put Jordan and LeBron as 1A and 1B with no clear winner over each other though. I rewatch and remember some of the Jordan era and it was such a pound and beat you up type game back then as opposed to the ticky tacky fouls of today but each player excelled well above their peers in their respective eras.

I think Livingston is long gone after this year. Iggy can still play hard shutdown minutes so I can see them doing whatever they can to keep him.

Some say its a lot more fun, I think there is way to many tippy touchey fouls that really shouldn't be called. Especially when the offensive player initiates the contact to draw a foul (someone goes for a fly by block a foot off the 3 point shooter and they jump into the person when clearly they weren't going to foul them in the first place or how guys lower their shoulders and drive through a defender and get a call). I want them to go back a bit more similarly to the 90s when guys made an effort to score and just draw fouls, makes the game better and less stop and go. Would be interesting to see Celtics-Rockets, I think the Rockets have a lot more fire power than the Celtics and would just get outscored at the end of the day, but hell this team has greatly exceeded my expectations since Hayward went down and then Kyrie at the most important time of the year. Celtics-Dubs should be a good series but I still think that is a 5 game Dubs win at best, I just see the Dubs playoff intensity go sky high especially on the defensive side that they can shut down anyone if they are healthy.

Warrirors will let the Rockets go ISO ball all day, with their passing ability and movement to get open looks they will hit those 3s all series long if Houston doesn't pick up their game. Watching this Celtics-Cavs game, man I didn't think the Celtics had it in them to compete after Kyrie went down but damn are they playing awesome!

Oooo that sounds good! Hopefully cauliflower doesn't skyrocket like it did at one point last year. Oh I know theres lots of good chilis out there but beans make the chili! Actually the best thing my wife made the other day was basically a baked hamburger in a big baking dish. Meat, cheese, mayo, mustard (I think), pickles, onions all baked one layer ontop of another. Oh man was that delicious. I got to say it was a bit weird going to keto, never really did anything with cheese/butter but those are pretty much staples in the keto diet so to suddenly incorporate them it was definitely a change. NucksPatsFan, if you have done keto did you find your appetite almost suppressed? I used to eat a good 3 hearty meals a day with a snack at night, since I hoped on keto, I have my bacon/eggs in the morning and some reason aren't hungry until 4 in the afternoon as opposed to the 11am that I used to be.

I haven't had time to go to the gym as much as I had hoped a month ago where I really decided to ramp up my health, shoulder started acting up and knees are beat up every week at soccer. I am hoping to start hitting the gym more and harder in the coming weeks and getting out to do many more bike rides/runs with my newborn and hopefully that will help now that the weather is looking up. I did change my diet though, about 3.5 weeks into a ketogenic diet and I have lost 20 lbs with a few cheat days in there (went on a 1 night cruise and I got my moneys worth of food). Since I changed my diet and cut out carbs/sugar, the few cheat days I have I realize I really don't care for the sweetness of sugars anymore or even bread really, they just don't appeal to me as much. Still miss my pasta mostly though and probably chili but whatever. The only downside is eating healthy is expensive haha! I used to get a bag of pasta/sauce and be able to have dinner with lunch leftovers for about $2-3, now that I don't have those cheap foods in my diet, man has the food bill gone up. Gotta go plant some more seeds and get some more veggies growing.

As much as I am a fan of both of them, Lebron is the best of this generation by far. Top 2 ever, I can see that debate on either side. The game was so much different back then, Bill Russell, Bird, Robertson, were all spectacular players.

Jumpity jump jump jumpity jump jump!

India... Damn didn't realize they went that far to be considered the fraser valley!

Man outside of the first round its a crap shoot. Who the hell knows how a kid in later rounds can turn out, some can disappear into nothing and be forgotten they were ever drafted and some can become Hobey Baker finalists. The fact people are trash talking late round picks makes me chuckle. My only bummer was Ronning not being grabbed with a 6th or 7th round pick, I wanted him but wasn't the end of the world, as good as he played for the Giants this year he is a long shot to make the NHL I think.

I have a tendancy to yoyo my diet a lot. I play soccer 1-2 times a week but definately don't keep up fitness much anymore, mainly because I bought a house and started dumping all my time and energy into renoing it for almost 3 years now and it was honestly go and grab whatever fast food or frozen pizza, etc. I could on my way home always just so I could dive into trying to get my place done until I had to sleep and then wake up and go to work.\. About 2 years ago my wife's work had a weight loss competition and just by eating healthy I dropped 25 pounds in 2 months, but I ended up 3rd (dammit!). I figure with our change in diet, these extra walks with my kid and going to the gym a few times a week I can drop that, if not more than the last time around and hopefully with renos having an end in sight I can dedicate myself to fitness more so I can be healthier around my kid. If I did a solid month of actually being back in the gym, I could get myself in decent shape I feel, I was in really good shape about 4 years ago with the gym and playing soccer a bunch. It just sucks seeing how I used to be only 4 years ago to now but knowing priorities changed it was inevitable. The nice thing is cravings don't bother me a ton, I don't have a ton, I think its harder for my wife since she loves cheeses and ice cream, etc. while I am keeping my cravings in check currently just by 3 pieces of bacon/eggs in the morning for breakfast (thats sorta my "cheat" I am using). My goal is by summer I can get back to my old sub 50 min 10k run, obviously won't get to my peak highschool form time but if I can get under and hour and push for 50 min I will be happy.

Way to go! My wife and I have really decided to change our diets. No more pizza for us Thats our biggest weakness. We definately have already changed our eating habits, higher protein. less carbs and 0 chips, etc. I am on paternity leave right now so whenever the sun is nice I like to take my son out for a walk, hasn't been great weather but definitely getting there. Just need to find the motivation to go to the gym a little more, its either 3am or 5pm when the gym starts filling up. The walks are doing well for me and hopefully get the stroller out and start jogging more soon. Figure I am going to shoot for 30 lbs to be lost by May.

I thought Glass fit the mold we wanted. Not quite as skilled but definitely physically more matured. Also what do I know? I don't get paid a good living to watch hockey so I can't judge people who do this always.

I just laughed so hard seeing you quote yourself hahahaha. In fairness this pick did throw a lot of us off since a few mock drafts were guessing he would be closer to 8-10 range. And with how much the Vancouver media at the time was absolutely pounding Glass/Vilardi down our throats, to see them draft someone else it caught a bunch off guard.

The Batpeople is the best tweet about it! Its such a joke to be honest, nobody has every said Peoplekind, mankind is just a word, not just for men but everyone ffs.

The Falcons completely lost that game last year more than the patriots lost. Almost like the Jags lost last game more than the patriots won. Pats were smart and took away the run and forced Bortels to throw and thats his weakness at the end of the day, how they let that game slip away the way it did was brutal. I am sure many many teams have cheated and either never been caught or been swept under the rug. Its like people complain deflategate was such a big deal and you had kickers and other QBs come out and say they did that themselves. Hell theres a guy who does the NFL hit on TSN 1040 (can't remember his name right now, was a kicker) and he said he always used to inflate and deflate the balls depending on weather conditions and every QB he knew did the same thing so he always found it amusing that this was such a big deal suddenly. People consider Montana the greatest QB ever when he admitted that his guys used Stickum and silicon during their playing days.

Haven't been a huge concert goer but... Bryan Adams (parents took me with them to it, I have no idea why....) 30 seconds to mars Angels and Airwaves Weezer Roger Waters And just got myself tickets to the Foo Fighters for next September. FF have been on my wishlist for as long as I could remember.

wow just wow....
