One might say it’s somewhat similar to a team playing a 40-year-old defenseman on your top pairing. There are some fairly predictable and reproducible results.

I’m not an expert, but I’d wager playing a 37-year-old goalie in nearly all of your games is not perhaps the greatest strategy in the world. We will see how that works out, but given how injured the panthers already are, I’m a bit dubious.

Hmmm. Aaron Rodgers said very similar things going to New York. Wonder how that worked out. Words don’t mean shit if you suck

If the can make a dollar…

I’m convinced that ALL of the jersey changes are cash grabs. There is a nontrivial segment of the fan population that needs every jersey, slogan, and style to prove their super fandom.

Plus, consistently changing logos, jerseys, slogans etc. shows they don’t actually have confidence in their brand or culture at all. It’s all just bullshit.

For me, it's a really bad look when they were linked to 2 of the HC5 for weeks and the only reason they backed away is season ticket holders threatening to cancel their tickets and never attend another game.

If you want good culture, you don't even dare link yourself to that sort of player. Ever.

Quote this with the first four Horror movies that come to your mind that are 10/10s for you. No cheating. Just the first four that pop into your head.

-Silence of the Lambs

NEW: Pentagon officials are forcing staff to watch Pete Hegseth's "Warrior" speech he forced generals to listen to.

Officials are even "testing" staff to see if they watched — and are threatening consequences if they lie about watching it or if they mock it, sources tell @swin24.bsky.social and I.

The Pentagon Is Ordering Staff to Watch Hegseth’s ‘MAGA Garbage’ Speech… Or Else

Defense Department sources tell Zeteo that staff have been warned that if they don’t watch or read the speech, or if they speak negatively of it, they could face severe consequences.
