Say what you want but most NBA games are unwatchable. All hot dog and no substance Booya That is the mentality of the NBA Only guy worth listening to is Sir Charles Barkley. He is entertaining and sort of gets it. The rest of them are hacks
Most hockey guys are hacks as well including George Snoufolofagus or whatever his name is. He needs to be arrested by the fashion police and quickly

Keep it out of your head. The Pens aren't getting a 1st round pick, let alone a top 10 pick.

Why not? It might not be a top 10 in the first, but could be afterwards...

Gonna be honest I can't stand Khaleasi. Every episode....mother of dragons, breaker of chains bla bla bla bla.....The red head Wildling is my favorite right now. Im still not sure what Little Finger's end game is.

Hate her too. The Insiders keep saying she's not a villain character but how can a character not be a villain that allies with basically Genghis Khan. The group that butchered more people in human history than any other society.

First rd pick or keep. We have 2 2ndrs no need for more. Really want one of those top 10 LW'ers. Some could drop to mid 1st rd

A) you can never have too many picks. I've never heard anyone make that argument.

B) can't keep him. Not sure why people are still arguing this. The longer Fleury's a penguin the bigger the chance Murray's not come expansions. besides reports from Yohe indicate he's ready to move on.

I don't think she's villainous just really really dumb. She was supposed to be a strong female protagonist but with each passing episode and season she turns more into this ditsy angsty little girl that keeps (frank)ing up by not listening to the men who know better like Jorah, Selmy, Dario, and Tyrion. She went to being a feminist figure head to one of the most anti-feminist characters ever by the third book.

He will probably sign with Buffalo. Bunch of good young players, and fellow American Eichel to try and recruit him.

Didn't say top 10 pick I said top 10 left wingers... They are all over 6ft and 200lbs and use their size to score

seriously. if you could get a pair of seconds for fleury, that would be 4 seconds in a single draft year.

it sucks not having a first, but it would have been the last one anyway

i get the viability rate for picks, but still. you could do a good bit of injecting some odds into the cupboard right there in a single round.

I have trouble understanding how it has any effect. I mean if a kid has waited 4 years to be UFA why wouldn't he wait another 2 weeks especially since the money will be the same and your pretty sure everyone will save a spot for you.

The even dumber thing is why Sansa would hold out on telling Jon about the Knights of the Vale....I still can't figure it out....
- SimpleJack



I don't think she really trusts anyone at this point, perhaps Brienne, but thats it. Perhaps she wasn't sure they would show up, so didn't want to have them as part of the plan. You could see she was annoyed that they didn't ask her about the battle plans, and she knew Ramsay the best. I must say, the battle scene was awesome tv. there were a few times I thought Jon would die, or Thurmond might bite it fighting the Karstark.

Unless Vesey was already sold on Buffalo before and Buffalo knew that if they could officially negotiate with him a few weeks in advance they could get a deal done before anyone else had a chance to convince him otherwise. Remember when Soderberg's rights were traded to the Avs like a week before June 1st last season and everyone thought the Avs were idiots? Well, Soderberg never made it to free agency. I bet Vesey is signed within the next 48 hours.

(frank)ing called Andersen to the Leafs. That's huge for us. Calgary now has limited options.

Yeah, but that pretty much sets the highest possible return for Fleury. They wont get better than that

Wasn't expecting more than that. I think mid to late 2nd and an ok prospect with a cap dump that still saves us 2-3 mil is what we should be shooting for.
