Game 33 : Lightning Strikes
Thing I noticed. 3 Power plays, 3 PPG. Both teams 100% on the PP.

I've never gotten this argument. How is nostalgia a defense of something. I'm ambivalent about the song (I don't particularly like it but don't care enough to get up in arms either way), but why is the fact that it's been playing for years relevant? Question comes up a lot in my mind about a lot of things. Some of our traditions are not worth keeping.

Winnipeg Ice
I kinda think the important question is can they draw more in Winnipeg (even as a third option) than they can in Cranbrook. Well the Cranbrook area is only 26K people. Sounds like they draw under 2,500 there, so hard not to think they can do better in Winnipeg.

Space is the Place
The story I read is the lander took some serious damage right after landing. Apparently, it got attacked by Curiosity shortly after landing. Of course I do like reading the Onion.... https://www.theonion.com/nasa-catches-glimpse-of-hard-charging-curiosity-rover-j-1830689267

The Video Game Thread
That's what I'm realizing. I don't have 4K at this point and since I love my 60" plasma so much for sports, and can't see much 4K content coming soon, I'm thinking the S might do. Thanks

360 won't play KOTOR properly. I know I've tried it in the past and it is unusable.

The Video Game Thread
Got a question I though I might ask here. What's the difference between the various xBox units? One S vs One X? I looking at getting one to play older games that have been updated (somewhat) to xBox One. Specifically KOTOR and Mass Effect. Just wondering is the One S will be sufficient. I'm not looking for online play (can't handle getting ass-whooped by 10 yr olds) and don't play that often, but miss playing KOTOR on the big screen. Just isn't the same on Steam etc. Thanks

I'm more worried about a ref being added for one purpose being extremely motivated to make sure he makes calls. I predict some soft calls this weekend.

I see Trestman is done in TO. Feel bad for the guy given the year he's had personally. Back to Montreal?

Season Finale At Edmonton
^^This. So much this. Still have nightmares over that year.

US Politics
Sad part is the same can be said for the Dems. Trump won more because of hatred for Hillary then anything else, so if they don't come up with a better choice next time around, Trump has a good chance to repeat (and this would be a bad thing). Kinda like why I think we will see another term for Trudeau.

No More Anxiety Watching the Bombers?
With all I hear about the pricing, I'm not even sure this is true.

Kinda my feelings on it. They've taken what should be a safety focused issue and used it as a revenue generator. I'm not arguing that distracted driving hasn't gone up with cell phones, but they really are talking it in the laziest way they can.

Wow.

Which has nothing to do with safety. Just revenue generation. The drive through was just stupid and the parking lot was empty.

You know what would happen if they turned off the oil for a week?

Do they ticket you for texting in a drive through or a parking lot? Drive through was (I think) Ontario and the parking lot one I'm thinking about was West Kelowna (BC).

The news piece did say they went to the superintendent first, but they upheld the decision. But I do agree with you that it seems to be a waste of the courts time.
