If you watched any of the "Hockey Day in America" coverage yesterday, you saw NBC oggle over Patrick Kane and his American-ness. I don't care if he's American or not, I don't want to see that d-bag on TV. Let's beat the hell out of him and his team today, shall we?

Monday Video
From Carnie comes some a dubstep remix featuring The Biebz. For those not in the know, he recently got shot and killed in an episode of CSI. I could watch this all day.
I'm covering for PCS for a while, so let's wish him well as he works his way to being a Poor College Graduate.
