High price to pay for a 16 minute a night #5.

Demers would be a good FA target. Very underrated. Is a legit second pair RH solidifier. And only 27.

Everything is a method of eating. If I put a slice of turkey on 1 slice of bread and eat it, that's not a sandwich. If I FOLD the bread, put them mustard on it, and eat it, I will be eating half a sandwich. A sandwich really is just a method of eating when it comes down to it.

You're conflating methods used in the act of eating with methods used in the preparation of food. You don't prepare a pizza with the slices folded. You might as well ask if scooping food up with a spoon is a sandwich.

if it's folded before baking then it's a calzone

Something about throwing a salad around.

I have no either about either where this came from, or where you're going with it. If you're asking me if salad is a sandwich, then no.

he's kind of soft so we'd have to see Streit, Medvedev, and/or AMac leave

If it's foodstuff between two breads, I'd say it's a sandwich. I'm not super familiar though.

Burnside listed the worst 5 trades in the last 5 years. Best part? The Flyers were only mentioned once and were on the positive side of the trade! Flyers fleecing CBJ with an uninspired Carter for Coots, Voracek, and Cousins. Homer sucks! Rabble rabble rabble.

Oddly enough, he has a list of the best 5 trades in the last 5 years. Shouldn't that list just consist of the team on the other side of the worst 5 trades? But I digress.....

can you imagine the Caps with Filip Forsberg now?

I'm going to go ahead and say no, a wrap is a wrap. Put it in the "See also:" section on the sandwich page, along with burritos.

then a calzone is not a sandwich because it's essentially a baked wrap

In his AMA, Elliot Friedman said he supports abolishing the salary cap. I like the cut of his jib.
- BulliesPhan87


I don't mind the cap -- it's forcing teams to turn to a better breed of GM. It's much harder for guys like Milbury to find a job these days, and I like that.

Meh, I've said my bit already. I think the internet era has had a big hand in this as well, you can't hide incompetence like you used to.

now what about In N Out where if you get protein style it's your burger in between 2 strips of lettuce instead of a bun.

It goes in the "uh, I guess it's a sandwich sort of?" category, with the KFC double down.

If the hot dog falls out of the bun while eating, and you put it back in, does that change its definition because it was brought to you as one thing, you changed it to another, and then you changed it back?

What I'm saying is, when does the preparation end? If someone gives you a spoon with food on it, and you yourself put it between two slices of bread, is that not a sandwich? The pizza maker didn't prepare the individual ingredients. They didn't slaughter the pig, make the cheese, grow the tomatoes. They themselves were handed ingredients, which they put on an open faced pizza. If you fold it, that is just another step in the preparation. No differently than someone on a low carb diet taking a chicken breast OUT of the bun and eating it plain. They are not eating a chicken sandwich. They are eating chicken. Even if it wasn't prepared as such.

seems like you turned it into a spoon sandwich
what if you drop your sandwich into soup and proceed to eat the sandwich in the soup is it now just part of the soup? or is it sandwich in soup

Idk. 5x5? He's someone, like a Stralman, you actually WANT to give an AMac-esque contract to.
