    Alice is what imagine true sorrow sounds like, not counting more classic blues. Time n a place for it. Soundgarden is good. My fav from the genre is probably STP even thou i think Alice is probably the better band.

  10. Poo brain virus was inevitable really *sigh* even though for years I liked to think the Wings were better than that... Too many scouts were here for too long riding the coattails of past success in the 90s. The game has changed a lot since then. I remember reading about one of the scouts who got fired this summer and how his entire scouting strategy was pretty much "is he big? Yup, ok does he have an average amount of talent to with that? Yup, ok I recommend him!" I think that scout alone might explain a few of the wasted draft picks from 2012-2017 Yzerman was necessary to breakup the outdated brain trust and start anew. Tim Stutzle
  11. What does Blashill have in common with Vanek, Filppula, Nielsen, Daley, Nemeth, and Bernier besides being completely mediocre? They're all stop-gaps Blash is Bryan Murray/Dave Lewis. When the moment is right, the blood is in the water, and a tier1 NHL coach is available he will be replaced He a gud daddy to muh keedz, is basically his only value right now The faster we gain XP and level up Seider/Veleno/Zadina/etcetc the faster Blash will be gone

    I guess the less rude way would have been to say "laymens terms" sorry about that. identity politics is predictive of progress? Elaborate?

    I mean this in the nicest way possible. You dont sound smart writing like this. In fact i think it comes off as incredibly fake. Again, I say that with utmost respect Anyway, i disagree. I think race relations have become incredibly worse on the surface level of polite society. My formative years were in the 90s and i basically thought racism was dead or dying for most of my life. No one cared anymore. Who gives a s***. Now there seems to be hyper focus on race relations. Suddenly ive gone from average american, to cis gendered white privledged male patriarchy average american. WTF? Its identity politics and its on the rise in a big way. I think fake hate crimes are a direct result of this hyper focus. Bad actors know, and are playing off the fact, that the general public will freak out and run with any sort of racist incident, real or fake. I tend to agree with morgan freemans very simplified approach to race relations: "if you wanna end racism... stop talking about it." Most ppl dont give a s*** what color religion or gender you are and just wanna get through their day. If you find yourself constanstly thinking about what gender defines you, or what color the person was who was rude to at the bus stop, congradulations youre probably the racist. Identity politics is moronic. And sadly it looks like its only gonna get worse, and its probably going to actually create literal racists in backlash. Fun times.

  16. I'll show you 90% rambling Pony Man by Gordon Lightfoot. When it’s midnight on the meadow and the cats are in the shed And the river tells a story at the window by my bed If you listen very closely, be as quiet as you can In the yard you’ll hear him, it is the pony man We’re always there to greet him when he tumbles into town He leads a string of ponies, some are white and some are brown And they never seem to kick or bite, they only want to play And they live on candy apples instead of oats and hay And when we are assembled, he gives a soft command And we climb aboard our ponies as in a row they stand Then down the road we gallop and across the fields we fly And soon we all go sailing off into the midnight sky And as we gaily rock along beside a rippling sea There’s Tom and Dick and Sally and Mary Jo and me And the pony man is leading ’cause he’s travelled here before And he gives a whoop and a holler at Mr. Moon’s front door And then we form in single file, inside the moon we go Into a land of magic that the grownups do not know Where the streets are paved with chocolate and the trees are hung with toys And there’s chewing gum for every one of the little girls and boys And then we stop to rest a while where the soda river glides Up to the slip comes a pirate ship to take us for a ride And the pony man’s the captain and the children are the crew And we go in search of treasure and laugh the whole night through But then the clouds surround us and the seas begin to boil And the wind howls like a dragon as upon the decks we toil When ‘longside floats a bottle which soon on board is hove With a map inside which leads us to a giant treasure trove And when the hold is filled with gold and the sails begin to strain And the deck’s piled high with apple pie we head for port again Then down the whirling starcase so swift our ponies fly And we’re safely in our beds again when the sunbeams kiss the sky When it’s midnight on the meadow and the cats are in the shed And the river tells a story at the window by my bed If you listen very closely, be as quiet as you can In the yard you’ll hear him, it is the pony man Ol Gordie got lucky with Edmund Fitzgerald, and his career would be nothing without that song. Because most of his work is utter garbage like Pony Man.

    God I've had this argument so many times from 2016-2018. I should have known the hindsight revisionists would come rearing back. Those times Mrazek was great? Guess what... those were cause of Jimmy too. Why only cast the negative aspects of Mrazeks career on Jim? We should give credit where credit is due. You play the cards your dealt. I won't disagree Jimmy was a late bloomer, I'll just point out that that fact has absolutely nothing to do with Mrazek. Whataboutism isn't a sound argument, but I'll humor you. I agree Jimmy has had bad stretches and good stretches, but his stretches are much more even keel than Mrazek's ever were. Mrazeks were giant peaks and valleys. One moment he looks like Hasek, then he seemingly can't stop a puck at all for 30 games. Every goalie and every player has stretches, but Mrazeks were incredibly pronounced. Again, not Howards fault. Mrazek took the team to arbitration and forced the team to pay him $4 mill a year and essentially treat him like a starting goalie. He didn't live up to that contract even a little. Howard playing the long game and persevering should be a testament to him as a player, not a detriment. It's not his fault Mrazek never learned to be humble. Good for you, I'm glad you've gained the confidence to retroactively argue for keeping Mrazek now that he's long gone and performing well in Carolina. Unfortunately history is history my friend. Personally I'm happier to have Larsson learn from a player like Jimmy, than Petr, but to each their own.
  18. THE BEATLES ARE THE MOST OVERRATED BAND IN 300 YEARS I much prefer The Kinks. Kinks don't get enough praise. Ima Kinks guy. This is what happened: Michael Jackson takes the world by storm. Becomes the KING of pop. Warner Brothers looked around the room and said "effeminate african-american pop stars are really the thing right now, we need our own" Thus they elevate Prince for marketing and sales purposes. Michael Jackson is organically good. Prince is manufactured big music industry capitalizing on a marketing trend. Prince sux Michael rulez

    You're retroactively claiming Mrazek sucked because of Howard. Come at me with some sort of evidence, or I'm going to point out how ridiculous that is. The mental gymnastics that have gone on with this fanbase and Mrazek is crazy. I'm convinced goalies in general just make people crazy. What is substantiated is: Mrazek sucked for us. No scapegoats. That's all that really needs to be said.
  20. Chelsea Handler is actually a good friend of mine Michael Jackson > Prince Do you disagree? Also, my unpopular opinion, Michael is a good guy and didn't touch those kids. This is what it sounds like, when LGW cries
