Stop shitting on my team. Start shitting on my finger.
I fucking suck at clubbing.

Remember, if your club gets bloody, always wash it off before going outside again.


On the bright side, Paul Ryan eh. I love it. LOVE IT. If it wasn't obvious Obama was gonna win before, now it's pretty much guaranteed.

You have a presidential candidate who describes campaigning as an etch-a-sketch, who ties dogs on top of cars, who flipflops on EVERYTHING, who pays 15% taxes (or less, we don't know because he refuses to show his tax files) as a millionaire and who gives 0 shits about the problems most poor/middle-class americans are having.

And now you have a VP who wants to cut ALL funding, including 30% to medicare, replace social security/pensions with vouchers, who wants to cut funding to community programs for women/poor/children, for public safety programs that fund firefighters/policemen and who wants to cut funding for education and all kinds of grants for the poor to go to college.

Yep, dis gun b good.

EDIT: Can't wait to see Tim Thomas's reaction to this.

Thomas' reaction: I'm disappointed ole' Mitt didn't call me up and ask me. This is clearly a sign that America is falling apart.

Want to hear the most dreadful news? There is a small possibility I may move to Boston over the next couple of years due to work. I'm hoping I won't need to but there's the possibility of a lot of money if I work in Boston depending on how things go down in my company over the next 1-2 years.

So I may just need to enact what's in the link in my tag.

AHAHAHAHA FUCK YOU MARVIE

How about those Phoenix Coyotes, Marvie!?

Lisa Halverstadt ‏@LisaHalverstadt
#NHL No. 2 Bill Daly tells me the #Coyotes sale process is continuing

iUM0UVouMWxxb.gif


Halverstadt is a lot more reliable than some blog that contains vague nonsense like this:
At this point we do not have a definitive time table, although we have heard that the announcement won't be made until later, probably closer to the Coyotes training camp.

A deal to sell the Coyotes has been a "done" deal several times before. Pardon me for waiting for a credible source.

Paul Ryan is actively offensive. Romney I disagree with. Ryan I really fucking hate. He is just living proof that the standard for "policy guru" is incredibly ridiculous on the right. I would love to just sit down with him for 30 minutes and talk on camera. Somehow though he's become part of the right's "intelligencia" despite never once having to explain the rationale behind his policies. I think the part that bothers me the most is the right is notorious for saying things like "work hard and you'll succeed," but Ryan was the guy who quantified those ridiculous platitudes into policy numbers and no one looked at the numbers and was like "Yeah, these are stupid."

At least you'll finally be living in a Stanley Cup winning city.

We also need a few people besides myself to help run the leagues and a few people to run the PS3 league(s) if there is enough interest.
 
Red Wings for versus league!

I might be able to help run a league, it all just depends on how busy I might be within the next few jobs if this contract job I have starts up here.

We're gonna randomize for the versus league as well, right? And still allow for trades&stuff, so everything like the regular GM league but scheduling& that we actually play (most of the) games?

Nope, I'll be here for the parade. I wouldn't be moving for a couple years. I'll take our joyous riot to Boston to take over the world. (Joke based on tag)

Trade approvals, etc. Not sure if the game is going to allow for multiple "commissioners" but having a few people in charge might help things run smoothly.

from the NHL13 website:

GM Connected: What’s your Role?

Users will be able to choose between one of three roles within the league, each one giving them a different way to experience the league:

The Commissioner

Each league will have one Commissioner. The Commissioner will also run a franchise in the league.

[bolding by me]

so... I don't think so... :/ So I don't really know what you could have other people do, since only the commissioner can sim and approve/decline stuff... :/ You could have someone support you in your decisions to NOT allow sth I suppose? But ingame, technically, they'd still be just regular players.

Also, can I take the Islanders for the Versus league? kthx.

One commissioner kind of sucks. Would have been nice to have a few in case the main commissioner wasn't around to move the league ahead/approve trades/etc etc.
