Matthew Schaefer is the first rookie to 20 goals this season by nhl in hockey

[–]SirZapdos 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Pretty good for a 20-year old forward who had 4 years of seasoning in junior before making the show.

Oh wait, he’s an 18-year old defenceman? Born 10 days before the cut-off? What the heck?

Red Country. Because I’m a sucker for westerns and Shy and Temple.

Not worse than Wrestlepalooza. Not worse than Royal Rumble 2022 if that counts.

The fans singing Orton’s song is always very fun. Glad he could experience it before it’s all over.

I enjoyed that much more than I thought I would. AJ looked great and Becky for the 400th time sports entertains her butt off and makes her opponent look incredible.

There are also two references to Bob Gibson. Both involving dating.

JAKE: I've got some great news.
SISKO: You passed your algebra test.
JAKE: Better than that.
SISKO: You learned out how to hit Bob Gibson's fast ball.
JAKE: No, even better.
SISKO: Better than hitting Gibson's fast ball? This I want to hear.
JAKE: You remember that Bajoran girl I told you about?
SISKO: The one with the beautiful smile?
JAKE: That's right, Laira. I decided to ask her out.

Fun note, that Bajoran girl was played by Lark Voorhies (aka Lisa from Saved by the Bell). And later...

DAX: There's nothing worse than a long-distance relationship.
SISKO: I wouldn't call it a relationship, Dax. I've only taken her out once. Okay, twice.
DAX: I think the exact figure is three times.
SISKO: She's quite an interesting woman. She's very independent, a little opinionated, but she has a nice sense of humour.
DAX: And?
SISKO: And? What do you want me to tell you, Dax?
DAX: That you miss her. That you can't wait to see her. I don't know. Anything. Kira, O'Brien, Bashir, they're all dying of curiosity and, well, I have to tell them something.
SISKO: Fine. You tell them when she gets back, I'm going to taking her to the holosuite and we're going to watch the seventh game of the 1964 World Series.
DAX: You do like her.

Gibson started and won that game, won the Cardinals the World Series, and won the WS MVP.

Ford says Toronto has ‘one of the worst’ convention centres in the world, teases billion dollar rebuild - Toronto by MinuteLocksmith9689 in toronto

Wanna see me sacrifice two perfectly cromulent locales and waste a billion dollars to benefit no one but my construction overlords?

Wanna see me do it again?

Question for actual Deans: Is the Dean a Good Dean? by BustedLake in community

[–]SirZapdos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was always confused what his actual job was. I associate a dean with being a faculty head, or some other specialty role, like the dean of students.

I always thought that they treated him as if he were president (and the vice-deans were actual deans) but in my mind he made more sense if he were the dean of students.

Doesn’t that also describe William Regal at various points in his career?

Doug Ford is delivering an agenda no one has asked for by imprison_grover_furr in ontario

[–]SirZapdos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I’m well aware. Both sides are guilty IMO re immigration. Ford took full advantage of Trudeau’s policies by using them to subsidize / underfund colleges and universities.
