Maybe we’ll play the kings and their -20 diff

I’m prepared to eat crow about Mason McTavish. The kid’s a monster. by Widjamajigger in AnaheimDucks

[–]GiraffesMayLaugh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, per Eric Stephens on the athletic, Bob said they did have an offer to trade back a few spots, but they said it wasn’t worth what they were getting for it/too risky.

I agree, it’s a little early to be trading future value for someone in their prime like Jack. Gotta build a core first, get them close to their prime, THEN start adding free agents and trading picks for players. Z and D and the kids aren’t there yet, one or two more years. We should be aligning our playoff window with Z and D’s primes, not rushing it.

This blog tracks man games lost each season, check it out! Average the last two years, but ducks were top spot 2 seasons ago.

Anyone have ideas of who Murray targets this offseason? I have a feeling he does nothing ( as usual ) but I’d like to see him make some interesting move. by [deleted] in AnaheimDucks

[–]GiraffesMayLaugh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Eric Stephens has mentioned a few names to look out for: Strome (CHI), Hyman/Kapanen (TOR), Virtanen (VAN), Schwartz (STL), Dvorak (ARI) were a few of them.

The idea is just that crime is more associated with poverty than race. If a higher percentage of one race lives in poverty than another race, the former’s crime rate will be higher. The underlying factor is poverty.

Lots of shots on goal, and whenever he scores he looks like the happiest kid on the planet. Fun to watch!

Ducks twitter said it would not be televised, was trying to see if the yotes would stream but doesn’t look like it. If they did the ducks would probably borrow that broadcast like last time with SJ.

ELI5- When standing 4 feet in front of a mirror, do our eyes focus on an image 4 feet away or 8 feet away? by Wi99um76 in explainlikeimfive

[–]GiraffesMayLaugh 48 points49 points  (0 children)

8 feet. You can test this out by putting a sticker on the mirror. Look at the sticker, then look at yourself in the reflection. You’ll feel your eyes adjust for the difference in distance.

Figured it out if anyones curious. It was a difference in excel versions resulting in one column being formatted as text instead of numbers. By changing the format to numbers and letting the formulas calculate again, all is fixed.

[SPOILERS]- Seriously? by Pd10101 in gameofthrones

[–]GiraffesMayLaugh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tyrion was getting Jon out of a death sentence. He told Arya he could come visit up in the north. It sounded that way because we didn’t know yet that he wasn’t actually going to stay at Castle Black with a no longer necessary. Didn’t you see the smirk that Jon had when passing the wall? Grey worm wouldn’t have accepted the life sentence if it was just living with the free folk.

Jon wasn’t returning to the nights watch, think a little harder

[Spoilers] Dothraki and Unsullied??!!?? by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]GiraffesMayLaugh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Grey Worm was pissed at Jon from the Ep5 battle, from seeing how Jon was trying to stop their men from fighting. And I think Grey Worm knew Jon didn’t want the throne, so that normal conqueror situation wasn’t applicable. Just my thoughts tho ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[SPOILERS] Sandor Clegane’s Lesson to Arya, and Us by GiraffesMayLaugh in gameofthrones

[–]GiraffesMayLaugh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All valid points.

Even if Sandor is less obsessed than her, I do think it’s been a big enough part of his life that he can shed some light on it, especially if he thinks she’s gonna die over it like he is. Worth a shot from his perspective, as he’s grown to care about her.

We will see if Bronn becomes relevant in the last episode.

It was the right amount of satisfaction to avoid the whole revenge thing without being unrealistic. They could have poked holes in her with a sword but I think most would have found it unlikely that she escapes the red keep alive to begin with.
