    Being a pseudo-luddite, I'm amazed at the speed of the Interwebz.

    I was right in the middle of the WTO riot in Seattle in 1999 with my wife and kids. Purely by accident. One minute we go into a restaurant to get some lunch, an hour later there's cops in riot gear everywhere and chasing protesters down the street. It was a pretty weird experience. I had been to some protests before but never with rubber bullets and tear gas being used.

    Dammit!!! I was just looking for that one. Wonder if he'll come back to school us some more.

    By mostly empty, you meant being 2/3rds full? At least that's how I remember it being.

    I think they're going to have to pay royalties for that.

    Further proof that a nursing home isn't too far off in his future. But, in his defense, his employer has been taking quite a bit of flack for not being complete Canucks homers. So maybe puppetmaster Ron, channeled that through Grapes.

    Paul MacLean named head coach of Senators

    Sorry! I apologize for forgetting to use the <sarcasm> font. Not sure how he feels about it, or if he's interested, but Mark Howe would make for a good defensive coach, IMHO. The guy was a real student of the game, and I remember him doing some clinics in the 90's where he seemed to have a knack for coaching. I don't know if he would want the opportunity, or if The Wings would want to move him from pro scouting, but if they can't convince Hitch into taking the job, I hope they, at least, put Mark on their short list.

    Buffalo. An exercise in futility since 1970. (well... there is that little issue from 1999.)

    Paul MacLean named head coach of Senators

    It's not like we can rely on our PP. McClellan, McCrimmon, (The Walrus was Paul) MacLean, all gone, I'm starting to think that Bab's is a real cock to work for. Good luck to ya, P-Mac.

    Sounds like some heady stuff. Probably fly right over our heads. On topic- Sounds like a young Eric Lindros to me. I hope this kid is as good as he thinks he is.

    New arena news?

    Bill Davidson did his homework when he chose where to build The Palace. It is within 20 minutes of where 80% of season ticket holders and luxo-box owners live, a big convienence for the base of the teams support. By moving The Pistons downtown they would probably lose a good number of those clients. Detroit is not Chicago, and a comparison between what worked there and what may work here isn't really possible. Somewhat subjective, wouldn't you say? Many would say that Edmonton has the best ice in the league. But, no, I don't think Al and his crew would back down from doing their job, and getting paid for it. I agree with your first sentence, but much of that also has to do with the job that PSE (Palace Sports and Entertainment) does at promoting shows and their relations with Live Nation Entertainment, the largest concert promoter in the U.S. Also, I think you have confused The Palace with PSE, which also promotes, The DTE Energy Amphitheater, and Meadow Brook Amphitheater. The Palace has less than 20 events scheduled into November, but DTE, last years #1 amphitheater for ticket sales, has a show almost every night of the summer.

    Former NBA players son on path to pros... in... NHL?!

    The bottom line of a kid making it to the higher levels in hockey in The U.S. has nothing to do with Black, White, Brown, Yellow, etc... It's having $$$ Green $$$. As far as race goes, I hope we can all continue screwing each other until we're all grey.
