Monday Links: He's Buffalo's Problem Now Edition

by bradflick55 on Feb 28, 2011 6:00 AM CST

I was going to make the headline about how the Blues' 111-game streak of not being shut-out was snapped last night, but Brad Boyes finally got traded. Who cares about a streak that doesn't guarantee victory when the streakiest player of the last few years departs? John Kelly, that's who. Now, when the Blues score their first goal, he'll have nothing to say.

The escalator problem

happened back in October after the Rally to Restore Sanity. News outlets (except for mine!) are reporting it like it just happened…

And I apologize if I’m missing something, but did Jackman do something specific for everyone to hate him?

It's a split camp

One side admires Sir Jax for his warrior mentality and stares but ignores how long in the tooth he has become

The other camp has visions of Ed Van Impe when Jax wears pylon orange in many games.

my family went to Cape Canaveral one year

My little sister and I went on the G force simulator. As soon as it stopped, my poor little sister runs out and sticks her face in the trash can (and throws up for a few hours after) and I ended up getting a wicked migraine.

Then my two older sisters went on these rides that looked a lot more fun, but we were too sick to do anything else for the rest of the day LOL.

Yeah... I don't know what I am on either.

I cracked up when I saw

that Puck Daddy used the pic of the all-star game targets on the outside of the net.

I need to see the context and reaction from Those Who Weren’t Aware.

Hell yeah

Reports are that the Caps are going to have a preseason game in Baltimore next season…which COULD be an indicator of the return of an AHL team to Baltimore perhaps
