  1. To be able to reach down to cover it I have to pull away from the post due to my lack of flexibility. This actually seems to happen to me more often than I'd like. I don't know how many times I thought I covered the puck and after the whistle I lift up my glove and the puck is actually under my body. I don't know of the palm side of the glove isn't sealing on the ice or what. I'm going to have to take a better look at why its happening. Now also consider that my left skate blade got jammed UNDER the post, so when I moved it twisted my ankle. I had difficulty walking Sunday night and all day Monday. Thankfully I had my lace-up brace from when I had a broken ankle. That actually helped a lot.
  2. FYI: here's how to NOT cover a puck with a minute left in a tie game
  3. It's definitely ugly. It was actually my wife's car we traded in for it and it was supposed to be hers, but I'll end up driving it because I'm the one that takes HOV lanes to/from work. Shes stick driving the Porsche I guess :P
  4. Traded in a Mercedes Benz C400 for this yesterday. $300/mo smaller car payment $200/yr drop in insurance $150/mo drop in gas usage $180/mo drop in toll/HOV lane fees Add to that up-close parking almost everywhere, free "gas" while there, and I can charge it at work for free as well. I was really worried about my goalie bag not fitting, but no problem at all, so we can realistically get rid of the Volvo XC90 that we kept around JUST for hockey because it happens to be paid off already. This is a GRIT goalie bag with obviously plenty of space:
  5. To be fair, that's a really nice looking jersey!
  6. Netflix Live is the greatest April fools thing ever.
  7. Yea I remember that happening a few times. Was never a big deal, usually just somebody trying to get out of class. Had the fire alarms pulled fairly often too. Those bomb threats aren't like today's bomb threats, though. Whole different world back then.
  8. That warrants a lockdown these days?
  9. Getting a 6-4 win is nice and all, but I'm even more happy to see my buddy Kyle play his first game back in about 8 months after a torn ACL and meniscus. He went down around the time I started walking again so we haven't been on the ice together in almost a year!
  10. More like slightly less on your toes because you'll still have a forward pitch.
  11. Flip or Flop can be depressing when you see them flip a 1200sq ft house and sell it for $800k in the area you already live in...
  12. Flip or Flop. I can't stand the girl and the "problems" are so forced but I like the end results, usually. I hate any of the shows where they don't actually do renovations (I find shows like House Hunters generally a waste of time).
  13. Wow, I got lucky a LOT on Tuesday night. This video is much longer than most of the other pickup videos (usually around 7 minutes, game videos are usually under 5) because there was just so much going on. But with some really good saves, along with some really lucky ones, I had a lot of adrenaline going and didn't feel tired the entire night. It was kind of fun "knowing" you'd make the save every time they entered the zone. Usually it's "get the puck out!" but on Tuesday it was very much "I can't wait for them to come back down the ice so I can stop them again". They scored 2-3 in the last 5 minutes though.
  14. I wanted the #DEMODAY one :P I hate most of what's on that channel with the exception of Fixer Upper and Flip or Flop (which is not being made anymore due to their divorce)
  15. Get Chip and Joanna to help you out! ;)
  16. Finally game footage! Now when I show up to the rink I take a look at who the refs will be and determine whether it's even worth taking the camera out. What's funny is that the head guy for our area is the one who chats with me about it! Anyway, here's the game. We won 6-2, and now the first place team with all the ringers on it is 9-1. We had 7 skaters, and our one D played the entire game despite being sick. In fact most of our team bailed on us because they were all sick.
  17. Weird, I received mine that day too and it was for everyone.
  18. You just had to reply to their email about it. They sent it to all customers January 16th. Nope, all customers.
  19. It's also worth mentioning (it was briefly alluded to earlier but I don't think anyone elaborated on it) that Sparx went above and beyond with regards to customer service a couple months ago for all its customers. One dumbass apparently didn't bother changing his filter when the "change air filter" light came on, and ended up actually causing some smoke/burning as a result. In response, Sparx sent out a free air filter to all of its customers. Definitely was not something they had to do, but it was still very much appreciated.
  20. The top team in our league full of ringers is now 9-1 :)
