Once they started to suck, the owners began a fire sale, and start to trade stars for prospects.
They had no Plan B.

It was just like before...
Now, the difference is that the owners can pad even more money into their pockets.
If it were not for their higher management, which is probably one of the best at scouting and locating talent, the team would have been run into the ground a long time ago.

The Florida/ Miami Marlins is one of the true joke organization in sports.

Some argue for the Pirates.
The owner there is just cheap.
At least he is not fraudulent.
You forgot about this:

It's a hit in the U.S.
Doesn't seem to have taken root in Canada yet.

^ Well, that does just seem to be a South Korean version of 'Party Rock Anthem', so I guess I shouldn't be surprised that it's popular.

It's a great song. Heard it a while ago from a poster on this board.

Oppa gangnam style!

Went blueberry/blackberry picking yesterday and made myself syrup out of it. So good on pancakes.

I was reading up on some Canadian blog that did a feature on the song, and the comments are a bit harsh and vicious.
I was a little surprised by the reaction, compared to the U.S. where even some celebrities like Josh Groban and T-Pain tweeted about it.
I am usually not a fan of K-Pop, but the MV really hooked me in.
It is just awesome.

I didn't know someone posted it already.
My apologies.

Here's the version for the ladies released a couple days ago.
Not as good, but just another reason to post this song.

It was posted in another thread no worries.

Harsh and vicious? Why.

Some comments were like "No one cares," "I wept for the future of music," and "Take this blog down."

It's harmless fun...
Why so serious?

went over to my buddies house today (SensAreReligion on HFBoards) and had a blast playing Rock Band and Singstar. My voice is shot from singing More Than A Feeling.

My voice is shot from jamming out on my acoustic singing "Staying Alive" by the Bee Gees.

glass? That's impressive. The only thing I can break so far is eardrums.

I would take Saad pretty easily. Etem has looked like crap everywhere but in the WHL — AHL, NHL pre-season, training camp, WJC, etc. Ellis and Elliott aren't particularly interesting. That said, depends on the exact structure of your league.

do you have any recommendations?
hits, shots, PPP, blocked shots, PIM, are some of things that are counted for points.

I don't think you can wrong with Saad. He'll contribute all around and has a pretty high ceiling, plus the Hawks have room for him in their Top 6.

Yes, it's true. Avril Lavigne in engaged to Nickelback's Chad Kroeger. They got together to work on a duet 6 months ago

Canada's top music couple?



Oh god I'm going to be sick!
