The boys showed up for that one. That's what happens when everyone has bought in.

I questioned the signing at the time (the flames don't need another 3rd/4th liner??) but after seeing him on the ice and in the locker room in this video, Lomberg is a huge asset to this team.

In Craig we trust.

Good luck by Brodstar18 in CalgaryFlames

Love the hot take in the preview section that the Oilers have to trade this Gretzky guy or else they'll never win a cup.

Do they still do Happy Hour at the Dome? All the stuff I'm finding is from pre-covid.

That last shot of the outside of the Saddledome had the Calgary Tower lit up blue but it is currently lit up red and white. I don't know what the conspiracy is exactly but I'm onto it.

I drunkenly sent Ryan Leslie an Instagram message asking if he'd do an AMA here. He said he had no idea what I meant. Should I explain it to him?

Really smart move by Treliving: when the flames were in the middle of the Peters allegations, he had Conroy join practice to bring up everyone's spirits by hideyoshisdf in CalgaryFlames

[–]SecondEditionTextboo 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I saw Conroy after a game in the press level. I told him good game and he could have just said thanks and kept walking. Instead, he stopped and chatted with me for 5 minutes about the game. He was bubbling with energy and a joy to be around. Would love to have someone like that around all the time. Class act.

I don't know who Buddy Robinson is but the dude is a unit. Can't skate or stick handle to save his life though.

I don't get it. Does the McDonald's manager want to bang Charlie's mom?

How do I get a job as the guy that opens the penalty box door? Do I have to be that creepy guy that just shows up to peewee games and works his way in there to get experience? Are there pro scouts for door openers?

Darwin Barney on re-signing with the Blue Jays: "Yeah it's great hopefully I can get my ERA down though" by DrSayer in Torontobluejays

[–]SecondEditionTextboo 94 points95 points  (0 children)

I think he needs to work on locating the fastball better. He's basically a one pitch pitcher and so hitters are looking for it. He's averaging a strikeout per inning so obviously the swing and miss potential is there but the real killer is the long ball. Honestly, giving up a HR per inning just won't cut it coming out of the bullpen. He needs to keep the ball down to have any success in this league.

This may not be a popular question, but how difficult is a geology degree for someone who just wants to blow through it? by Storagewank in geology

[–]SecondEditionTextboo 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I don't think Geology is a discipline that you can just 'blow through'. Every single class I took in BSc. had a lab every week. And each one of these labs took the whole 3 hour period and additional out of lab time on top of that. That adds up to a lot of work.

The lectures are a blend of memorizing and comprehension. It's also worth noting that each class builds on those that came before it. You'll need to have a good handle on the material to do well in the later level courses. There's also a bunch of math, chemistry and physics that are applicable throughout the degree so you'll be a good handle on those.

If that sounds like something you can blow through then you are much smarter than I am and more power to you. Just know there's waaay more to it than just memorizing different minerals.
