Now that is absolutely priposterous. Cmmon Gary, he says that it is not efficient to cut the schedules 2 weeks every 4 years! He thinks the players don't want to represent their country. It is 2 weeks out of every 4 years. The NHL can't deal with that. There is not enough words in the world to explain how furious I am with this bonehead thought.

THIS is for SERIOUS comments only with only intelligent comments...I want some REAL opinions by some of the guys that KNOW....I know there are some....give me some insight on this.....oh, and this is off the Patriots site...not a hater site...


They were sights Sunday night that Patriots fans haven’t seen much of this year: Tom Brady being pressured, getting hit, getting sacked even, Tom Brady throwing the ball before he was ready, Tom Brady forcing it into coverage.

In short, Gillette Stadium fans were watching No. 12 play like a regular good QB, Tom Brady circa 2001-2006 instead of the SuperBrady that had been flying high for 10 games.

So, where was the Patriots’ offensive line, the unit that ESPN’s Gregg Easterbrook said would make Joey Harrington into a star? Well, they were facing a good Philadelphia front seven, something they haven’t had to do much of during their remarkable run.

New England’s line, which is excellent by any measure, and for years underrated by the media at large, had probably gotten to be a tad overrated by Sunday night’s game.

While the Patriots have played a representative NFL schedule this year – some studs, some so-sos and some bottom-feeders – they haven’t played many good defensive fronts.

In fact, they’ve played some of the worst.

Using our Defensive Hog Index rankings heading into Week 12, here’s how New England’s opponents have played up front.
Buffalo (twice): No. 32
Miami: No. 31
Cleveland: No. 29
New York Jets: No. 28
Cincinnati: No. 26 (tie)
San Diego: No. 24
Indianapolis: No. 22 (tie)
Washington: No. 19 (tie)
Dallas: No. 5.
Now, the Patriots’ output certainly helped make all of those teams look like pushovers, but there’s no getting around the fact that New England has played some terrible front sevens – only Dallas is good, while Indy and Washington would be the closest thing to respectable.

The Eagles played like a team that knew this, and their No. 10 Defensive Hogs showed no fear of the Patriots’ supposedly impenetrable offensive line.

Does any of this mean that the Patriots are vulnerable (at least a little) on the O-line? Perhaps. One thing’s for sure, future opponents Baltimore (No. 1 Defensive Hogs), Pittsburgh (No. 8 Defensive Hogs) and New York Giants (t-6th Defensive Hogs) were taking notes.

IT’S LIKE 1998 ALL OVER AGAIN
The parallels between this season and the 1998 season are striking.

Start with the fact that the main storyline for each season went something like this: good team adds Randy Moss to offense, turns into world-beater. As it was for the 15-1 Vikings.

But, like the Patriots have company in the NFL stratosphere this year, the Vikings had company in 1998. Atlanta and Denver both finished 14-2, and the Jets and Niners were both powerful 12-4 teams (both over +150 in point differential).

It was the first time there’d ever been three teams with two losses or fewer since the merger, something that could be repeated this year with some combination of Dallas, Indy, New England and Green Bay. Moss and the Vikings became the greatest non-Super Bowl team in history that year when they lost to Atlanta; he hasn’t been to the big game yet.

This is a debate I am having, and couldnt find an answer in the NHL rules

In a shoot out, if a goalie goes to poke check the puck, touches it but the player is still able to keep posession and scores, is it a goal?

Either: No, because the goalie touched it

Or: Yes, becase the player kept posession

The Sabres are probably going to (if they haven't already) cut ties with the Amerks. What would happen to players that have recently been called up to play for Buffalo, but are only there to fill an injury spot? Would those players from Rochester have to go back if the Sabres didn't plan on keeping them for the whole season? And if the organizations do sever ties, where will Buffalo get players from in the interim of finding a new AHL team to affiliate with?

Boy, I hope that makes sense, I know what I'm trying to say, but I feel like it came out as a big blob of words.

I remember there was an episode called "Wedding Headlock", which I never saw, I must admit, I guess I do sort of feel bad for Hogan because I heard Linda mentioned on the show that she was thinking about leaving him.

I'm wanting it to hunt elk, black bear, Maybe someday even a caribou. I'm thinking either a 300 win mag or a 7mm. When I go and look at them in my local gun shops they all tell me 30-06 is the most versicle. I just wondering if its because here in Iowa nobody stocks 300's or 7mm but they have many brands if 30-06. If they are just trying to sell me what they have. Help I don't want a 30-06 lol
