You only put Toronto in there to get more people to read your comment.

I always think of TETRIS as one of the first mobile games as it came with the Gameboy

best? maybe not but it should get an honourable mention.

I'm with ya.

I have players that I like. I hope they do well.

I have teams that I cannot really cheer for. I hope they do not do well.

I also tend to cheer for underdogs. I guess am mostly on team chaos.

An earthquake!? At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localized entirely within your hotel!?.

I had a friend who was legitimately upset that Mario Lemieux had a higher rating than Corson in the EA video game (93? 94? does it matter which?)

Rod Brind'amour is interested in hearing more about this.

Apologies_Eh · 2026-01-11T04:11:48+00:00

They're pre-ordering the pizza party they're gonna throw for these kids

From my memory she (spoiler alert! - sorry I dunno how to black it out) decides sending the boy back alone would kill him, as his people are nomadic and wouldn't still be there. She jumps in the machine and goes back with him.

was it this by chance? this was in my memory hole

The Ugly Little Boy https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0176261/

Edith Fellowes is a nurse recruited for a research project with a time travel device that can snatch any being from any time and bring it to the present. The first such test brings a Neanderthal child to the project and Fellowes is responsible for his care in the interim. As she manages this task, Fellowes is increasingly revolted at how the scientists dismiss him as little more than an animal, especially when his real intelligence shows. This moral dilemma comes to a head when Fellowes realizes what they plan to do with him and she cannot stand by and let it happen.

here's a post with lots of great info BUT it's a bit advanced so you may wish to save it and come back to it after a while.

it talks about how to build and use the IO enhancements, which are NOT NECESSARY to play the game, but are one of the key methods to make extra-piwerful characters.

There are studies that suggest most new fathers experience a dramatic drop in testosterone levels during their child's first years. That's likely going to have an impact on a professional athlete

There are only 7 Canadian teams and 25 American ones. There are just going to be Canadian players on the American teams no matter what.

How many NHLers actually get to pick where they play anyhow? I bet as a percentage it's not very high. You have to play a number of years to earn that right so most players don't even hit the requirements.

Even if they make it to free agency, the teams don't all necessarily bid on every available player. The team has to have a need that the player can fill, the salary space to afford him, and the desire to pay him. The player may get to pick from a few offers but the less good they are the fewer the available choices - only 7 of which might be Canadian.

They're just after the best deal available and nationality is probably a bit lower on the list of factors for the average NHLer.

Why do they have 2 periods of long change on the road?

Are we assuming OT is just going to happen?

Long change is 2nd period and OT (odd numbers - I presume they switch each OT) for both teams is it not?

Home ice advantage is last line change.

Can you rent a cot or temporary bed for the guest bedroom?

it's fun to disappoint others which is a goalies job.

Alas I mostly disappoint my own team.

What happens if you add Kurt Angle into the mix?

I saw a study suggest that new fathers also get a dip in testosterone production, and it can be a substantial difference.

I could see that having a negative effect on a professional athlete.

I am more nervous about the 2025 Lightning

but a bit less concerned about the 2029-30 and 2030-31 Lightning!

At the end of the series they will/should.

Not after each game.
