How many chances should Atlanta get? They didn’t try very hard to keep the Thrashers.

I don’t think the Thrashers left over a lack of fan support. They left because they had an unfavorable arena deal where the Atlanta Hawks managed the building.

That’s because they aren’t the Dallas Cowboys, but the DFW Cowboys!

Interestingly, the NY collapse in the 2004 ALCS wasn’t a total shock to New York and Boston fans. There was a rainout that postponed Game 3 in that series, and as a result the remainder of the series would be played on five consecutive days. The way the pitching rotations fell into place after Game 3, the Yankees ended up with an unfavorable pitching matchup in every game from that point on.

Well now they're Tennessee's team.

Or the 03 Yankees after the Marlins and Josh Beckett stuck a bat up their asses.

Your, of course, correct...
Was just referring to the area where they all practice and live...

Had a granddaughter who spent three years at the Panthers IceDen training as a figure skater under the tutelage of the Russian coaches there...

Well I’m excited for the Lions future. We finally have an owner that wants to win.

And the Panthers score with 5 seconds left in regulation to go up 4-3 and punch their ticket to the Finals.

When they beat the Bruins a few weeks ago, I started really pulling for them. Bob has a sweet spot in my heart.

Tkachuk has been amazing!

Too bad though, assuming the Heat beat Boston tomorrow, the Panthers are going to take a back seat to the Heat.
