I had a tough guy friend in college who had a Yorkie named Bruiser. He insisted the dog helped him find girls.

No, there was never any serious talk about that. Shero gave Bylsma a vote of confidence on day one (after the playoffs ended).

Rain on the way here-we still need it...

Now the world is upside down,
And all logic is inside out-
Just look at Obama’s nonsense
If you still harbor a doubt

So ensorcelled by the left
And the golden worshipfest
He wants their adulation
And to hell with all the rest

He’s likely to get bitten
By all those he has eschewed-
When his debt is up in November
All he’s going to get is screwed

I’m tapping out on this pedantry contest.

As always you still are chief pedant.

Yep and I’m glad. His style of play does not suit the current team. We’re paying multiple millions out to high scoring offensive players and his style is to get a goal and then spend the rest of the game defending it. Doesn’t make sense for this team. Was hoping dashing Dan bylsma could be enticed down to my place, er.... My team. ; )

Do you have any idea how disturbing that is?? You might need to go to detention for putting that mental image out there! ; ) A +++
Has anyone else seen anything about reports of obams sexually harassing males on the law review at Harvard? I wasnt sure if it was an Onion type piece or not.
