Guy on one of those scam phone calls trying to tell me I was referred for a "free home security system" just hung up on me because he asked if I had any pets and I told him that I have 7 pitbulls that I keep tied to my chain link fence like veal.

I'm probably putting my number on 50 other scam phone call lists but (frank)ing with these dumpster humans is such amazing entertainment.

I like to turn it around on them, since they are wasting my time, I start wasting their time with stupid questions and stories, then when they realize its a waste of time, they hang up on you. It makes me feel good.
I get a free cruise call every month and free dental whitening call as well. I've asked the dental guy if they can do my dog (which I don't have with me) because me teeth are pretty good and my friend is a dentist anyway. for the cruise guy I asked them how many friends I can bring and ask them if I can bring underage kids into international waters and what rules apply once we get out there.

I get the cruise one a lot, never got the whitening one. My favorite shtick is to go all the way through to the point where they ask for my CC# and then they always say "I need the 16 digit number on the front of the card" and I just keep telling them in different ways that "I can confirm there are 16 numbers on the front of the card". One guy finally told me to, I sh!t you not, "shove my card up my ass and jump like a frog".

edit: I also like giving them an absolutely absurd expiration date for my card. I think I told one guy my card expired in June of 2028 and he didn't even care.

It's about time He called out Bailey.. AND benched Strait. I really think after that debacle it was the first time EVERY news writer was finally writing about the poor decisions. The angers has to have finally gotten to the Owners, GM's etc.

I don't think you can say anthing too terrible about Nelson except He isn't crashing the net. He is doing his Blake Comau inpersonation of always going around the net like there is a force field around it.

I have zero issues with Kulemin b/c the Effort is there every shift and He doesn't do anything stupid. I don't see him tossing the puck in front of his own net, losing it at either blue line, doing some stupid no look drop pass to no one..etc.

Neilsen should have been called out too. SKATE you friggin Turds!! You can't play hockey if your feet are not moving. You want to fix the PP..SKATE!! you want to fix the defensive zone break downs.. SKATE!! 99% of their issues is b/c they are stagnant.

one last point.. anyone want to bet Bailey is on the first line tonight?

I agree Nelson should be using his size and being more of a force. I would have also called out Frans as well. Go after a long time vet as well.

I'm not taking that Bailey bet.

Just once I want one of these guy to get eaten alive on the bench... just once. Start with JT after a bad shift. .. This team is waay too good to stink.

I am going tonight with my Son b/c I got tickets in the 100's for $12 each on that Gametime ap. I will make sure we are involved in the 50/50.

I bet a sabres fan on here in the beginning of the summer that the Leafs would have more points then the sabres of course before Toronto traded everybody. Loser had to buy the other's kid a t-shirt of a player on the other team. I'm guessing he'll want a JT shirt for his kid

At this stage can going to Weight be that much worse?
- ses111

Yes have you seen our PP? Capuano should be canned but under no circumstances should Weight be hired. From Snow on down should all be fired and none of them should be here next season.
