on a similar note, I hate that FAFSA is always read as FASFA. It's only five letters, how does literally everybody (frank) this up?
- BulliesPhan87

i agree.

but i also hate the fact that it just utterly stops after undergraduate education, so ill call it what i damn well please, which usually boils down to "that (frank)ing piece of poop waste of time"

I agree; if he can even help kill penalties, i'm fine with it.

If he doesn't pick it up, though, it won't matter for next year. They aren't gonna carry him and Vinny, i do not believe

agreed. something will have to give - too much money tied up in too much dead weight.

did you ask your professor to fight you in the parking lot after class?

Direct quote, regarding administering oral meds to an infant with an oral syringe:

"It might not be the best way because the baby's gonna choke on it because you shot it to the back of their throat"

I am one of those people in the minority when it comes to Luke Schenn. I see value in the type of player that he is at +3m/year. He is a defenseman who constantly makes the other team pay the price when they enter the corners of the flyers defensive zone. He is a good shot blocker and penalty killer. He usually makes nice outlet passes and has a knack for keeping the puck in the offensive zone and getting his shot through.

He has obvious shortcomings: foot speed, overzealous stepping up in the neutral zone, etc. Somebody mentioned before, Luke Schenn's biggest problem is that we gave away JVR to get him. You can never reverse that, so why not look objectively at what he brings to your team. At his age, I would keep him over Grossmann if someone needs to be traded to sign Del Zotto next year.

I definitely agree that Schenn is a better player then is given credit by some. In terms of Grossmann versus Schenn. Grossmann is the better player. But he has creaky knees, and is older. Schenn is younger and very durable.

Inexcusable.

the one that really gets me is a local auto company called Six Roblees'. i want to light the sign on fire.

edit: or rip the apostrophe off the end.

Inexcusable.

irregardless, you got the point.

Off topic, but did anyone see the Byfuglien hit on Downie? To me, that borders on Hunter/Turgeon. The gap isn't as big, but it's still well after the fact.

in his defense, i hate that (frank)ing name. just like carl's junior. makes me insane.

What do you means? Johns LeClair is one of my favorite Flyers of all time.

Looks like Coburn will be back tomorrow night. Will be interesting to see who sits.

i lived in John's Landing, a neighborhood in Portland. For some reason that didn't bother me.

I missed the game last night due to duties with the GF. I see Schenn has 2 assists. Is he starting to take charge out there or should we still trade him? Sounds like Del Zotto kept up his great play and is looking like the gem we need.

Okay, someone please inform me: Is the name of the person/place Johns Hopkins, or is Hopkins a noun possessed by someone named John? The example you gave is possessive, so it makes sense. I thought the name was simply, "Johns Hopkins" with no ' in Johns.

Akeson.

Looked good to me. Downie is a POS

Was anyone else hoping that Kopecky left last night with a few less teeth and 2 black eyes? That dude's a sneaky, slimy little poop.

I'm not gonna argue the second half, but that was a really, REALLY late hit, and extremely dangerous. But, since there was no injury, just 2 minutes.

Coliacovo, right? I don't love Schenn right now, but Coliacovo has been a Flyer for a week

That was easily Brayden Schenn's best game of the year.

Probably. CC has looked pretty good in the first two games. He's remained in tact as well which is a minor miracle.

You're right. Trade value at an all-time high. Trade him for Coliacovo.

speaking of this issue...i lived in glen mills for a spell as you may recall. our father, for whatever reason, called it and still does to this day, glens mills. it makes me want to punch kittens.
