NHL officiating has hit rock bottom. How many non-calls for penalties happened throughout the play-offs? And when a player did something serious that warranted a suspension (Niskanin's cross-check on Crosby, or Sisson's Game 5 match penalty) the league just brushed it off. NHL is the only major sport that has a different set of rules for the regular season and play-offs. Look at the Nashville-Anaheim series-- had to be the most vicious series I have seen in 40 years. :)
Caught part of repeat episode of girl who was 8 months pregnant and on heroin. Turns out she is selling herself for money for drugs. She is such a mess, I wouldn't even take a "freebie" from her...........lol
You gotta love playoff hockey. The continuous cross checking, slashing, spearing, holding, slew footing, and tripping.....and it gets worse for the guy who actually has the puck.....lol
Who was Barry Trotz (washington coach) trying to bullshit last night in the post game interview??? He said Niskenan's vicious cross check to Sidney Crosby's head was "a hockey play". Yeah right!! He also got a little testy with one of the reporters when the reporter asked him if Ovie's slash was also a hockey play?
I nominate the Toronto Maple Leafs for the "Sad Sack Franchise of the Century." First they say they are going to be a shitty team for 4/5 years while the Shan-a-plan takes shape.... Then they over achieve and make the play-offs........Now what better way to repay their loyal fans- charge absolutely outrageous prices for play-off tickets. (Don't be surprised if they get wiped out in 4 straight)
With a little more effort San Francisco could have had a 2 run lead in 9th. Spam didn't hustle on the passed ball. I thought (and so did tv announcers) that he could have made it to third. Then he doesn't tag up on fly ball a couple of batters later. Yes it is only first game of season but all the games are important..... :)
I was watching a repeat episode today and started laughing when Phil tore into the husband. I thought, how funny it would have been if Phil had ripped into "How bou da" when she was on his show.
All the rule changes implemented in past few years are going to ruin baseball. I know one rule that would 100% cut down the time of games- get rid of commercial breaks every 1/2 inning.
$hil has finally hit rock bottom. Exploiting a poor family's grief for a few bullshit rating points.....It hasn't even been a month since the lady was shot.
