I'm four songs in and I'm blown away by this Kendrick Lamar album. Not even a massive Kendrick guy, but I am really loving this record so far.
"man at the garden" and "squabble up" are my favorites out of the gate.

To all my new followers, I have been working on a CapFriendly replacement called TheStanleyCap.com. All the important salary cap information is there and I believe is the most accurate that is publicly available. If you haven't already, I'd appreciate you checking it out and spread the word.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think that Daniel Jones is a franchise quarterback by any stretch. Still, the Giants did him zero favors in terms of his development and surrounding him with talent.
Would be awesome to see Jones land elsewhere and thrive.

The Winter Classic sweaters are nothing super special.
The Blackhawks are very clean and I do like the classic Chicago "C" on the sleeve. Still, not reinventing the wheel with them.
Meanwhile, the Blues are super boring. They could've ventured outside the box a lot more than they did.

Jim Montgomery shouldn't have been the fall guy for the Bruins. Their forward group is lackluster and that's on the front office. They're missing Jake DeBrusk way more than I think they thought they would.
I really will be shocked if Joe Sacco fairs much better. #NHLBruins
