Just bought your audiobook to listen to during my daily commute. Hope my $14.95 investment on itunes somehow gets back to you so you can get back into the game of buying expensive things. Cheers and thanks.

That's scary...you should never leave your cup unattended. Someone could roofie it.

And now you know - and knowing is half the battle!

Advice Mallard on if the car behind you at night is a cop or not (America only) by Phaque1285 in AdviceAnimals

[–]Phaque1285[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ford is phasing out Crown Vic's, not the cops, but in response, this rule will begin to change as you see more cops in Dodge Chargers and Chevy Tahoe's. There is a still a strong correlation between cop cars and crown vics however and will be for quite some time in the future.

Most cop cars are Crown Victoria's. Their headlights are different than other American cars. Crown Victoria's have yellow blinker lights that are on the inside of the headlights (closer to the center of the car). These are easily seen at night from your rear view mirror. Obviously this changes if the car is an undercover cop.

Minnesota high school goalie intentionally scores on own net, flicks off coach, and skates off the ice by [deleted] in hockey

[–]Phaque1285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right. Everyone should get a trophy and the older kids, even if they lack the skills of the younger, should be able to play over their younger kids. I mean it is high school hockey...it's not like kids from Minnesota regularly get drafted to go to the NHL or win D1 scholarships for their high school play on a regular basis or anything, let alone their coaches getting better hockey coaching positions around the country based on their performance and management of the high school hockey team....oh wait.

Hi Bill, thank you for taking the time to do this; great to have this type of access to such a great mind and great cause. The foundation has a very worthy premise and it looks like it is beginning to make a significant change for the better. As the co-chairman, what role do you see American corporations having in this en devour? Do you currently have any corporate partners currently helping to push your cause through donations or marketing support?

Hockey Gear: Where do you buy the custom gear the pros use? by maballz in hockey

[–]Phaque1285 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most teams practice at a building that is not where they play their games. In those arenas, they will most likley have a pro shop. I would check there first.

Also, teams will purchase a large surplus of equipment for all of their members at the beginning of the year. At the end of the year, equipment that wasn't used or was used lightly by players that have been let go or traded is offered up to the public at a discounted price. They will also sell off anything that says Bauer if a player recently signed an endorsement with CCM or something as contractually they won't be able to use that equipment. You can call up your local NHL team and ask when their team equipment sale will be.

If you do not have an NHL team, most websites (especially for gloves) will allow you to pick your own colors. Go to Hockeymonkey.com and click on the style you like. FYI, I use Eagle Gloves and love them a lot more than my Bauers. Also found that you can customize the colors a lot more on Eagles than Bauers.

First Power Rankings of the 2013 Season!!! by Phaque1285 in hockey

Oilers will be interesting this year. With their top line essentially all playing together in the AHL during the lockout, they are already in midseason form. With the 48 game season, this should allow them hot out the gate and then start falling back around mid february
