anyone else notice atlanta has a 14-7 record

*raises hand*
Speaking of Atl, I just read on the 4th Period that Hartley was being considered if AM gets let go for dome weird reason. I might not agree with Murray on some things, but with our young core, we do NOT need Bob Hartley.

Massive Jersey Foul
Seen at the Detroit game last Saturday night. Sorry I couldn’t get a pic the crowd in the Top Shelf was too thick. Dude wearing a current Blues 3rd jersey, number 44. At first I thought, “someone is a big Darryl Sydor fan?” then “if it says Pronger on the back its a major jersey foul”. He finally passes and I see the name on the back is “Bertuzzi”. YGBSM??
Did anyone else see it? If you got a pic send it to Puck Daddy. This abomination cannot stand.
The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong. But that's the way to bet. - Damon Runyon
someone who posts here can shed light on that.
if I remember the story right, it was purchased for a girl who loves the Blues but Bertuzzi is her favorite player.
I saw it at the rink once, too. Truly bizarre looking.
The real question?
If RJ Umberger were wearing the Note, would Game Time be able to come up with enough rim job jokes to last a full season?
And speaking of Jersey Fouls, did anyone see the Blues third of Jacques Plante? That’s not nearly as bad as the Bertuzzi foul, but I tried to send a cell phone pic of it to Puck Daddy. Also, he was with a guy who wearing a Barc Plager with a name plate. Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t the Plagers play without name plates?
I know it's time for hockey because I've started singing "Don't Stop Believing" with the words "...born and raised in FUCK DETRIOT!!!"

I know Puck Daddy disagrees...
… but I really don’t have a problem with a jersey from Time Period 1 being adorned with the name and number of a player who played in Time Period 2. If someone wants to wear the Beer Coaster jersey with Sudsy’s #11 on it, or if they want to put “Oshie 74” on one of the Ornest-era jerseys, I’m okay with it. The Bluenote is eternal; the players who wear it are immortalized by association. Whether they played in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, or 00s; whether their sweaters had red, or yellow, or had “St. Louis” inscribed in the Note; their service to the team and the city transcends the limitations of time.
I'm kinda stuck here
Luv me some Bob Plager and have a #5 jersey but I don’t want folks to think it’s for Jackman. Put Plager’s name on the back or let the gray silver hair alert anyone to the fact I’m old guard?
Some days its just not worth chewing through the restraints
If the jersey is from the era when Plager played, I think it’s best to let it be so that those who know, know.
If people don’t know and somehow think it’s for Jackman, then you can educate them.

I'm hoping for new wallpaper soon.
I don’t know the schedule without it.
Sometimes, I wonder why hockey came south of St. Louis, and then I realize, I'm south of St. Louis. Coincidence, I think not.
Was about to shut my computer down
I was only on to get email.
When——-It’s December, I need new wallpaper
I’ll be on the lookout
Thanks Brad
Anyone have a dull knife?
I wanna go to town on that Godawful eBay sweater.
Also – the chain restaurant flow chart is all sorts of awesome.
One day, David Backes and Albert Pujols will combine forces to become the most awesome piece of violent force known to man.

The “I play risky” thing is going to net him a whole group of new people who hate him and I just might be one
The term "in my humble opinion", which they think adds weight to their statements rather than indicating , in reality, "these are the mean little views of someone with the social grace of duckweed"
not me love it
but i have always been a fan of someone like Pronger

Of course, there’s a world of difference between an aggressive tap on the top of the mask and Ballard’s wallop to the side of Vokoun’s head. Stretchers have a way of sucking the funny out of these situations.
No they don’t.
It’s only funny until someone gets hurt.
Then it’s fucking hilarious.
