You don't appreciate a lot of stuff in school until you get older. Little things like being spanked every day by a middle-aged man: Stuff you pay good money for in later life.

never even heard of him

He reached his height of popularity in the late 1980's early 90's...I believe he was married to Judy Tenuta. Used to go on the Howard Stern show when Kinison was around. Howard and Kinison used to shred him.

You just have to get past the voice and delivery...the lines he spouts are really quite funny if you read them in a non-Emo Phillips voice

This sums up my issue with Flyersgod. I'll have to change the inner voice when I read his posts.

It's worth noting he didn't warn the NSA that he was kidding this time

At the time, $4M was a hefty price tag for a guy that wasn't a guaranteed top 4 dman. Plus, he was the Flyers 5th dman for a while. $4M seems like a lot for a 5th dman.

It was still a good move at the time. I just don't know if it was a slam dunk on Homer's side. Part of the reason he came for a 2nd was because of the length and amount left on his deal. You assume risk when you take that kind of money on. Mez contract has become a bit of a problem this offseason.

- PhillySportsGuy



It's one of those trades that worked out well for both sides -- when I mentioned it as one of Yzerman's better moves, I didn't mean for it to come off as being critical of Homer and/or Mez.

Tampa dumped over $18M in salary commitments for a player that was struggling badly for them... that's a good move for them considering they were desperate to get their financial house in order after the previous regime treated the UFA market like fantasy hockey.

Yeah, Mez played well at times for the Flyers, nobody is disputing that. But if that contract is hard to trade in 2013, imagine how bad it was several years ago when the cap was significantly lower.

That's news to me. Last doctor I saw was in April and that was a neurologist for my PCS. Of course I did physical therapy for that, so I suppose that counts.

You're kind of like Rob Deer or Dave Kingman. Whole lot of swings and misses.

Now that they've been absorbed mainly by the Atlantic, and Metro divisions, I'm interested in how the former Southeastern teams do.

I think we are going to find out that the Islanders are a lot better when they have teams to regularly play against that aren't Philly, Pittsburgh, Jersey or the Rangers.

I think it will be interesting in seeing how The Red Wings adapt to playing a full season against tighter checking Eastern teams.

It will be nice to see what Winnipeg can do without the crazy travel Schedule .

I had that joker on my APBA baseball team. Only let him pinch hit when the dice were hot.

I really wanted to laugh. Was a close one...

I think we're gonna see the Flyers struggle this year to make the playoffs. With the way the schedule is now, we don't benefit from it at all.

Not really. Just trying to understand how somebody attempting a weak gay joke can turn it into somebody dismissing his unfunny and adolescent attempt at humor into a poke at requiring a therapist.

Fee free to make another lame NSA joke.
