Gary Bettman is basically as bad as Roger Goodell or maybe worse. There have been 3 lockouts while he's been commissioner and he keeps trying to force hockey on the south where people don't give a poo poo about it. There's also plenty of bizarre suspension decisions in the NHL, while he doesn't directly handle those like Goodell most of the time he still gets the blame.

I was thinking it was a specific him loving Philly for some reason thing, but good on them anyways.

Also American Crime Story continues to be awesome and whoever asked about Sarah Paulson, shes great and might be the first person on basic cable to ever say "mother fucker" without a bleep.

Gary Bettman singlehandedly killed my interest in NHL with his multiple incompetence-causing lockouts. And stupid rule changes :(. Also Bettman literally looks like a loving weasel. Hockey used to be my favorite spectator sport, but gently caress hockey now. I haven't watched a game in like 3 years. Also it used to be considered one of the Big 4 pro sports, now its not even on the radar of ESPN

ESPN doesn't promote hockey because they don't have any TV contracts with hockey. Hockey gets tons of coverage on NBCSports and Fox Sports

Good morning!
Never got into hockey as a Seattle sports fan, and now hockey-curious given how much the league is looking at the city. My main problem getting into it is that I have little idea who everyone is and they almost all have difficult to pronounce names. As with any sport, the main problem getting into it is who everyone is, but the difficulty is compounded in hockey since almost all the names are Russian/Finnish/Swedish/Eastern European. Fun as hell to go to a game, though - way better than watching on TV, it really gets you to appreciate the kinetic nature of the sport.

That being said, gently caress Bettman with a tire iron. I may wait to get into hockey until he's gone.

THE HELL IS WITH THIS ASS!?





I just watched the Broke 30 for 30 and the contrast between Keith McCants and Andre Rison is amazing. Just look at McCants body language throughout that interview. Dude is in a plain brown t-shirt, totally slumped over and can barely seem to look at the camera. Meanwhile, Rison shows up wearing shades and a suit and looking sharp, and recounts everything as if there were just some wild days that he pulled out of unscathed (he didn't) and is happily reminiscing.

Grouper is a cool fish to eat. Had a fair amount of grouper in key West earlier this year. Had more Street drinking though. Street drinking is the greatest thing ever.

I heard lion fish is delicious and also cool to kill en mass because they are invasive voracious pests.

If you have extra lion fish on your boat it increases your limit for snapper and grouper, simply because they want them gone. Very invasive.

But super yummy

The problem with this is that there will probably never be a time or team without a shithead on the roster, known or unkown. I rationalize by reasoning that I was a hometown fan before and will be after, regardless of who is on the current team. Just my 2 cents
