BLUES NEWS:

  • Hey, did you know Blues single game tickets were on sale now? Because somehow I hadn't heard that yet. Not sure how I missed that. [Blues]

  • The newest episode of Beyond Checkerdome is live and ready to go - the 50th episode! Halfway to syndication, guys. [SLGT]
HOCKEY NEWS:
  • After all of the expansion talk this week, a different option was brought up by rumor mongers (and Dan Patrick): relocation. [SBNation NHL]

  • Down Goes Brown goes through all of the reasons that hockey in the 80's was ridiculously ludicrously mindbogglingly nuts. [Grantland]

You've undoubtedly seen the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge by now - perhaps you've even done it. But is it actually worth a damn thing, especially if you don't donate? Well, perhaps very much so. Let Idea Channel explain!








Don't be these assholes.
