Great game, DC. The wife just brought home Mint Milanos to remind me she said everyone will say mint. She's a lovely person. Lovely doesn't mean completely lacking cruelty, of course. But I agreed with her. The problem was that's the only one I knew. Sometimes I read through these results and track...

All the other old guys piled on to Atlantic City . Susan Sarandon in her prime, washing herself with lemon juice. Luis Aparicio (2) - DC, Howard Howard, please to stay out of my mind when I'm trying to play this game. It's hard enough. Once should be the max. I suppose I could have gone with Bull D...

Nice one, champ. But you didn't get me down, Diamond. https://armchairfilmcriticdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/raging_bull_se_d1-4_1106262399.jpg (hopscotch. nice fucking answer genius.

Also, I set the draft date/time for October 5th, at 3:00 pm Eastern time. I set it for an Auction draft. But, I'm open to suggestion on changes, so please let me know. A later time would be better, them's workin' hours in the apple biz. I understand, but I also don't want to screw up people's weeke...

Fuck this. I was beating Diamond by 3 going into the 9th question, and I lose by 14. I hate this game. With the Islands, I had all but one correct, and still manager to pick the highest point answer. And the only reason I came up with the 1 pointer Usher song, is because he stole the beat from Home...

If he plays college hockey, otherwise it's two years.

Woo-hoo!! Thanks for the heads-up.

Tonight! This is my favorite draft of the year. As usual I'll be logging in at 8 and not getting anyone until 9:30 As always, I look forward to you vulturing every player I want, when I'm down to pennies in my account and still need ten guys. Everything stated above is true. This is always a fun dr...

I haven't added the hockey blogs to my daily rotation yet. Any early word on the 18- and 19-year-olds? Anybody from this year's draft other than McDavid and Eichel (and maybe Strome) expected to stick? What about last year's? Sam Reinhart in Buffalo? Nikolaj Ehlers in Winnipeg? Reinhart is looking ...

Thanks, SCK.

Echoing Ryan. Fall Saturdays are work days.

I caught Bronto a few months back on the racing show on WGR in Buffalo. Totally lucky, I was cleaning the gutters on a Sunday morning.

You sound really professional, it was a great conversation to listen to, even though my racing knowledge is subpar.

Psyched to get a shot at the SanCarlos Juggernauts is the finals. 53 points clear of the field in the regular season. Dominant.

CMU goes down chasing the three ball in the last 40 seconds or so. That was a really entertaining game. Nice seeing two coaches who were willing to let their teams run up and down the court. That's CMU's game. They're 3rd out of 350 teams in 3s. They played their ass off Buffalo didn't miss shit. R...

Played out like it should have, needed turnovers from DC, only got one. Ryan, thanks so much for doing this again this year. Huge fun, much appreciated. I won it on the good fortune of there being a question about Creedence. Any band after that time and I would have struggled to just come up with t...

Oilers put like 50 shots on them this year. Any win they get is a fluke.

I'm not surprised that once they got serious about Rex the Pegulas lock him down. Their full-court press looks pretty effective. Kim seems to be one of those hyper-classy get shit done types, and Terry seems to be a real closer. I'm sure he got a lot of gas leases signed around kitchen tables back i...

Rex Ryan havin' a sleepover at Terry Pegula's tonite. After 12 interviews he's the first to get a second. With all the talk of him and Trestman being a package I'm psyched for a HC/OC combo that went 9-23 last year.

That seems like a really strong return for Perron. A first-round pick is a lot to give up, but Perron will certainly help them. And they have him for next year, too. Edmonton is determined to win the race to the bottom. I really thought that this was Buffalo's year, but they've disappointed me by b...

Hearing a lot about a Detroit radio-driven "Go Green" or something effort, to cheer for the Jets and stick it to Schwartz for his postgame antics against the Lions.

Future #2 overall pick Jack Eichel is talented. OT game-winner.

I don't. Is it because people thought Phelps swam the 100 free? Because I just asumed that he was gonna be correct but obviously wasn't. I didn't have any other guesses other than Phelps or Spitz. Yeah, the only wrong answers said were three superfamous recent swimmers, two of which were said by mo...

We have everyone except JYD. This week set a record for most number of wrong answers due to reading the question wrong. I also think Diamond came up with the most devious question that was probably still fair enough to be included. I'm stalling while I'm taking a dump, if you haven't noticed. I'm p...
