I may not get this 'sweet spot' this year...We're pretty bad!

Ours is hit and miss...some umps check every game...some teams know what to look for, and will ask the ump to check. Some teams just don't care. But at the year end tourney they will check for sure. Don't want to play with a bat all year then lose it for the final weekend.

Bumping an old one with a new question for those who know the Bat Regs for ASA/SPN Slo-Pitch. Miken RZR (Model SPRZRA). That's good for this year, right? Will it still be legal next year? Saw one one sale today...marked down from $179 to $75 (this weekend only)...was thinking about grabbing one but would like to get more than one year out it. It's marked ASA 2004...but I know they are doing a new marking starting this year.

Back in the day, I ordered my GF an "I <3 Darcy Tucker" (before <3 was a 'thing' yes, it pained me to do so) t-shirt from NHL Shop. I searched through my CC bills, and I honestly don't think I was ever charged for it...but she got the shirt.

George Jones.

Canadian singer Rita McNeil. Never really a fan of her music, but apparently she still had quite a following out East! She was only 68.

It's been over a year since I started....close to 50 games...not to mention all the hours I've spent on that mahcine prepping...first time I've EVER seen that pop up. Great timing!

Middle of the 3rd period yesterday, A message pops up on the laptop that all my music plays off. "HP Assistant. Reboot is required". Options were "Remind me 1 hour, 2 hours...never" So, since there is only about 10 minutes left in the period I quickly click 2 hours and ok....computer message pops up. "Windows will reboot in 1 minute" Program closes and the machine goes through the SLOWEST reboot ever. There were 4 whistles and no Goals during the reboot. Thankfully, the video guy had short clips with music for the stoppages. Stupid Windows!

Maritimes? What specfically? My mother is from NS and most of my family now lives in Annapolis Valley The blue/yellow/red opf the NS flag would pop really nice...also...if you plan to have any kind of lighthouse imagery...that red top is so iconic....might be cool as a mostly black and grey with some color.

No, not Lady....!!!!!! The Queen song...and the 15+ years I've dedicated to this damn industry! And, a cool (at least I think so) Forum handle.

I want to do something similar to this: Except, it won't be names...I want "RadioGaGa" or Radio gaga, Gaga....ga ga....not sure exactly....in the banner(s)...and it won't be that big.

That was a bad call to not blow that down...but at the same time how many times are you told "play 'til you hear a whistle"??? No Whistle...but a bunch of Leafs stopped moving and the Habs didn't. Same as the offside goal Duschene scored...he KNEW he was offside...but didn't hear a whistle...so he kept going.

Yup....became a legit fan when I started there in '98!!!!! In other death news...Jerry Buss, the owner of the LA Lakers, died today. He was 80.

Country singer Mindy McCready. 37. She had some modest success in the mid-late 90's...but her life has been a mess for the last decade or so. Drugs, DUI's, a bunch of custody battles. She committed suicide.

We have a regular shinny/pickup Sunday night. Last year for Superbowl, he moved it to 3p. The lot across from the rink (which is free Sunday night after 6p) is NOT free Sunday afternoon at 2...but we didn't know that. I think there were 5 or 6 guys who came out to $70 tickets. I would have been one of them, but I didn't play that night...

I'm an uncle for the 3rd time. Jasper Finn Bazinet born: Jan 27/13 12:31p 9lbs 21 1/4" This keeps the streak alive...it has been 45 years since there was a girl born in our family.

I know, everyone is sick this time of year...so venting about a cold is kinda, well...whiny, to be honest.... I seem to have gotten past the worst of my symptoms in the past week....except for this ONE damn thing. I have the feeling that there is something lodged in my throat!!!!! My breathing is not impeded at all....I can't wash anything down, I can't bring anything up. Surely it is just iritation from the amount of violent coughing I've done in the last 3-4 days, but holy hell....it is annoying! /vent

His name is the law....or, have you been deputized? Is this the Ol' West?

Jeez-us, another person I thought was already dead!

Not my "Sweet Spot" moment...but tonight a the Bulldogs game (as seen from my perch in the Press Box): There was a puck out of play that struck a young fan in the Bulldogs end. I don't think he was badly hurt, but obviously somewhat shaken. During the TV timeout, while he was being attended to by Security, Medical and his father....Bulldogs goalie Robert Mayer skates over to the glass...gets his attention and passes his stick over the glass to him, then skates across to the bench, gets a new stick and goes back to the crease. Everyone in that section, and everyone who saw it gave them both a pretty good ovation. Classy move by Mayer...and that kid will remember that for a long time after the bruise is gone . At that point we had Mayer tagged as the 2nd Star (34 saves in a 3-1 win)....we thought about moving him up to Number 1, but we were over ruled by one of the other Press Row guys.

You know you have lots of gloves (or gear in general) if you NEED panaorama view to get it all in 1 shot

Skates: RBK 9k (White) Stick(s): Warrior AK (85/Gionta), CCM V130, RBK 7k, Pro Stock Kuba Dolo Gloves: Bauer 4 Roll Helmet: Easton E700 w/ Bauer Visor Pants: Bauer Supreme One95 Girdle Shoulder Pads: CCM V04 Elbow Pads: Warrior Franchise Shin Pads: RBK 3k Bag: MSH Pro Bag bold= the New (or relatively new) additions.

So we'd be trading "....indecision, poor game management, and fear" for "...indecision, poor game management, and fear" The biggest difference I see is that the Bears have played meaningful games in December, made the playoffs (or been very close) and have actually played in a SB in the last 13 years. All things I can't say about Buffalo...so, he has had a certain amount of success in the League.

Your excitement for getting rid of him probably equals my excitement that the Bills might get him. Apparently, he has already contacted he Bills saying he is interested.
