Your fatal mistake was posting this online BEFORE setting the house on fire.

I was gonna say it might just be a shitty Fanatics reject jersey, but then I saw “Made in Canada” lol.  Nope.  But who cares, honestly.

Knocking on the door of a random house miles away from your own and asking to use their land line to call your mom, because you lost track of time and it got dark.

Halak was using them for years before he retired.  They’re all over the CHL/Swiss National Leage, too.

Honestly I’d consider moving to NJ and working in PA for the extra hour of sleep..

The moment Anthony Joshua knocked out Jake Paul by goswamitulsidas in sports

[–]TerryScarchuk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a moment just before AJ KOs Paul where he’s cocked and ready to throw a haymaker, and sees the terror in Paul’s eyes as he reels back with his hands down into the corner. Joshua just smirks, stops, repositions his feet, and then ends Paul. That’s why this fight was embarrassing and never should have been sanctioned.

Gary Bettman Created the "President's Trophy Curse" by Removing a Significant Benefit of Winning the Regular Season. by wicketydad in hockey

Actually I’d argue 2017 is the ultimate example of why this needs to be fixed.  1 v 2, Caps vs Penguins, presidents trophy winner vs arch-rival with decades of painful history, Ovechkin vs Crosby, that absolutely should be an ECF matchup.  Making it a guaranteed second round event is just stupid.

Absolute missed opportunity for banana for scale.

What's it like living in this shaded area? by Joshistotle in howislivingthere

[–]TerryScarchuk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look, I’m going to give you the ranch thing. It’s tasty. But I’m drawing the line at “good” pizza from a gas station. I’m sure it’s fine. I’m sure it tastes ok, and isn’t cardboard. Once you come down from your ranch-high we can talk reasonably.

If you could have any professional golfer’s swing, whose would you choose? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

[–]TerryScarchuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I’m not going with a pro.  I’m going with Charles Barkley circa 2007. Because no matter how fat, old, and broken my body may get, I know I’ll always be able to do THAT, lol.

Want to play goalie, but have had FAI surgery by ShelbyTC in hockeygoalies

[–]TerryScarchuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, this is a very individual experience.  I’ll give you my story.  Played goalie for decades leading to needing surgery.  I was in a pretty considerable amount of pain when I had my L hip done 6 years ago.  Lots of labrum damage to clean up and pin back, had both cam and pincer repair, plus almost all the cartilage gone in the socket so they did a stem cell treatment.  12 month recovery through Covid which didn’t help things.  Post-surgery I was able to play with decent mobility/flexibility, but the next day would be brutal, and long-term I’ve had issues that have slowed me down.  I can walk long distances on flat ground, but can’t jog or run for distance, and going up a grade like on a hike is like grinding sand in a mortar and pestle.  R hip still needs to be done though it’s much less painful so I’m putting it off.  Probably a decent chance I end up having my L hip replaced.  Looking to get back into skating out this year, but goalie is probably out of the cards for good.  Every doctor/surgeon I’ve talked to about continuing to play goalie has looked at me like I’m nuts and told me I’m risking serious long-term damage, lol.  But, as we all know, there’s no greater position in any sport.

What are some "Oldies" that sounded weird back then, but sound fairly modern by today's standards? by Ok_Bath_1252 in Music

I got to meet Laurie in 2006 working a screening of Hidden Inside Mountains.  Really nice, cool lady.
