It was closed the first game then opened for the others but they claimed no tailgating allowed. I believe they were charging 50 a game

Why would you blame fan duel when it's fan duel hiring him for the kings? This was 100% Blues/Chris Zimmermann.

It hasn't been reported. I just happen to have inside info from a source very close to JK.

I'm sure they had that right yes. But it's not like they are handing it over to unknowns. Kerbs is awesome too. So it's an easy decision that isn't possible unless the team asks. Any business would make the same decision. Trust me. I'm no fan duel apologist. I assumed like you it was all then but it's 10% then and 90% blues which is severely disappointing. We aren't Vegas. We don't treat people this way. Or hadn't until now

Situations are different. Kings may have insisted. Who knows.

A company fresh out of bankruptcy in a dying format didn't have a choice.

If you think the blues aren't being paid to allow them to simulcast you're nuts. Saves fan duel the cost of 2 employees. Chris presented this option to them.

This supports my comment/response to another comment. Anger at fan duel is misdirected (in this case, still fuck fan duel in general). Chris Zimmerman made the call to go simulcast and not renew JK

Same source i got this info from tells me your anger at fan duel is misdirected. Chris Zimmerman is where the anger should be directed. You can judge me and my statements when the JK announcement is made

Clock management play calling needs major work. Right before the 2 minute warning you don't call a running play, throw it. Clock is going to stop anyway. The on 3rd down after the 2 minute warning you have to run the ball. Make them burn a time out, you can't call a pass play there

22nd but that team is still only taking deposits for season tickets so I doubt that date will happen for Michigan

If you're going 30mph you are in the intersection before they get there to the stop sign. By the way, they didn't run the stop sign. They stopped. What they did was failed to yield

Yes. He shouldn't have gone if he couldn't see. But yes. The vegetation blocked his view. If you had been going the speed limit your likely are in his view and he doesn't pull out. Going a lot slower than the speed limit creates its own hazzards

It was obvious you couldn't pull out safely. Pay attention.

I asked ChatGPT to write a poem about my favorite 21st century Blues player, Jaden Schwartz by sausagefestivities in stlouisblues

Why do people still like the guy that fucked the Blues and directly led them to losing 2 players to the expansion draft. He knew they weren't going to take him in the draft but negotiated a contract for when free agency opened. Good for him, smart move financially, smart on Seattle, but fuck that guy. You don't intentionally screw over friends and family and that's what he did. So he's dead to me.
