    The person below me game...

    I haven't been in one for a long time. My ex-bf's dad had one that he built in the basement. It was awesome. The person below me has over 100,000 miles on their vehicle.

    I'd kind of rather be sleeping, but hockey is an excellent second choice. The person below me has eaten poutine.

    potential team names for las vegas!

    I've never read Dune (or any of the related books). I did see the movie when it came out, but I was totally lost before it was half-way over. That said, I would think that the Las Vegas Dunes could definitely be a contender.

    potential team names for las vegas!

    As long as there isn't a Seattle Wookiees. Everyone letting them win would be too dull, but the alternative would be everyone having their arms pulled out of their sockets. The Wings have enough injuries as it is- a back out over there, a concussion over here, a face off in the corner... Ok, so wouldn't the back and sleeves be blank, or is having an 8 on one arm of jersey #77 part of hiding their numbers?

    The person below me game...

    I keep hearing cicadas every once in a while. I'm sure that's what they are. What else could they be? No one in this vast tundra knows what they are, but I swear I hear them. The person below me liked algebra. (just wondering if that's possible)

    The person below me game...

    If I had the time and money, I'd have things around the house that I'd rather do. The person below me was raised to finish everything on their plate and now has difficulty leaving food uneaten without guilt because children are starving in (insert demographic here).

    Las Vegas rumored to get an expansion team

    People talking about desserts are making me hungry. If they call them the Las Vegas Gamblers, I'll cry over the lack of originality. If they call them the Las Vegas Crap Shooters, I just might buy a hat or something. It would make for a fun away game destination, but that's probably what it would end up being- a bunch of fans of the visiting team who got the tickets as part of a casino deal. How would that be for player morale?

    For this life, I have never had any. The person below me forgets that tires need to get rotated until someone reminds them.

    I hear you! When I see someone in Wings or Lions gear, I always start up a conversation. The person below me thinks this summer has flown by way too fast.

    That sounds like a long wait. I hope you're not in pain. Best wishes.

    Ice Bucket ALS Challenge: Bettman edition

    Took the words right out of my fingers. She is beautiful. I can't believe she's 75.

    Lidstrom honoured today with plaque next to Yzerman

    He deserves it (she said, enlightening no one). I wasn't too crazy about how his face looked there either, but I guess they have to do the best they can with limited 3-d.

    Ice Bucket ALS Challenge: Bettman edition

    Dan Cleary accepted the challenge. I like that he put up the info for donating online. I haven't seen anyone do that yet.

    Ice Bucket ALS Challenge: Bettman edition

    Every once in a while for a fleeting moment, Bettman does something that makes me think he might not be the worst creature on earth. Gotta give him props for doing that.

    Helmer: First one to get a herniated disc in the new Season?

    Bans didn't like tootoo? I'm a bit more worried that the Tootoos are honeymooning in Hawaii and Herlmer is with them. Now that's carrying the load above and beyond the call o' duty. Or maybe this is a different occasion. Or maybe Herlmer and his lady split and Tootoo is teaching him how to pick up chicks. Commence the motorboat jokes. I'm done for the day. EDIT: was misspelling Herlmer as Hermler. Can't have that.

    Whoa. Europe. In the middle of the season? How did I miss out on that news? Thanks!

    Official Detroit Lions thread

    So I was putting the Lions' schedule into my phone and I noticed that they were scheduled to play at 9:30 a.m. on a Sunday morning. I verified it on the NFL website. There are no other Sunday morning games for the whole season. Does anyone know what's up with this? It's October 26 at the Falcons.

    Mine too. Hope all goes well. This doesn't sound like fun at all. Here's to a speedy recovery.
  22. http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=727853&navid=nhl:topheads Well-deserved. 3 Olympic teams, good NHL career, and all around good guy.
  23. Can we put the guy in the McDonald's commercial (I think it's McDonald's) in the room and give you an extra bullet? Then strap both the bodies to his random red couch and dump it into the Grand Canyon?

    This or That

    Shower. Although a hot tub sounds very nice. Ok, Shower for cleaning; bath for relaxing. How's that? Flip-flops, sandals, or thongs?
