For it to be congress it would have to go through the senate as well, with a veto-proof majority to change anything.

Tanev, McCabe, Stolarz all through 2030 is a little scary given their ages. All getting decent money.

Awful idea.

Flinching and giving the bully your lunch money voluntarily doesn't stop the bully from thinking you can be taken advantage of. The opposite.

Probably not. I've seen a lot of revisionist history on takes and even more "this is further proof that nothing would have worked".

The latter has always bothered me. Make things worse and point to it as a reason that there was no better.

"Not turning it over as the last guy back" is though?

I don't know, I've always been embarrassed when I do this and I try my hardest not to when last back. I don't think to myself it's a system issue if I turn it over in a compromising position.

I don't disagree with a lot of that, but I just can't put those decisions on why we're here today. There's many scenarios where we're still a great team. There's no reason why we should be in *this* position *this year*.

Sure, but then you can't turn it over clean.

Just like the last Dman back trying a move. The structure is in place, but the quick decisions aren't.

But you recognize that as a player.

If you're last back, if there's no covering a mistake, you can't give up the puck.

We weren't bad during all of those though...we're bad now because of recent decisions.

That's not really how their entry works though. He was coming in with speed when everyone else was basically at the blue line.

Maybe you can argue it's the wrong system, but the play in this structure doesn't have players back.

An umbilical cord

Hahaha different kind of fans I guess. I just try to deal in reality not emotions.

When it doesn't make sense it doesn't make sense.

MM is a selke caliber *playmaker* with 23 assists.

What's the point of this? He's never been a goal scorer.

I'm sure there are some, but the lack of shared experience means one won't establish itself (or will be hard for one to). Comedies in general haven't taken over cultural conversation since the mid 2010s.

Bottoms (2023) might have had that vibe, for example.

Damn, they added 23 years to me. Even with toddler music playing they think I'm 56.

I looked into expanded storage, ended up just hardwiring my console into better internet speeds.

I've found being 20 minutes away from even the largest games is lovely.

I actually feel like the "US Thanksgiving means you're out" of contention feels underplayed this season

Probably because we're all mid.
