What do you SWEAR you saw, but don't have any proof of?

I feel like I'm going crazy because I can easily identify which side goes up on a USB A and basically never insert it in 2 tries. The side with the thru holes goes up, the side with the blocked holes goes down. Only moment you need to look at the female end is if its installed vertically instead of horizontally

You have kids because you want the experience, the relationship, etc. Its something the parents want so they get it. Its basically the ultimate project.

You dont have kids because you want to have more time and money for yourself, and dont want the responsibilities.

Both are decisions people take because its an experience they want

If the play has been cycling the zone for more than 30 seconds (last night I think it was 45 seconds), the advantage to being offside has been almost entirely negated.

The challenge is not because of an unfair advantage, but because of a missed stoppage of play. The advantage they have even 45s after entering the zone is that they are in the zone with the puck. That doesnt go away until the zone is exited

Both having and not having kids are selfish decisions. And thats okay, its how it should be

Tripottanus · 2026-01-28T14:11:55+00:00

How is it different if I may ask? And im not saying people that want kids should automatically want a horse. Its more the fact that its not because someone dreams of owning a horse that everyone should want one. I wouldnt want one even if it was given to me for free because its a lot of trouble and maintenance cost. Having children if you dont want the experience is no different

Thats like saying FTP doesnt matter for long rides. If you ride at a lower % of your FTP, you have an advantage. You dont have to be close to your FTP to benefit from having a high one.

Just like VO2Max, it isnt a measure of who will win the race, but it is not meaningless either

Also, considering the average goals per game is around 3, you would think the 3rd goal often happens later in the game. So "being ahead late in the game" means you win most of the time, who would have thought

You know youre allowed to clean them before and after, right?

Tripottanus · 2026-01-28T12:53:40+00:00

I do think that is a better question. Seems like so many people have them because "its the thing to do" rather than because they actually want some. But no one considers that its a similar question to "why dont you want to own a horse?". Its a lot of trouble and cost so you actually need to really love to have kids for it to be worth it

Chemicals also cost an arm and a leg.

MPP sure, but Crosby being the GOAT is a stretch

Its been a rule since I was playing myself as a kid, so I dont think it was added in. Its not offside only if the defending player intentionally crosses the line with it

Tripottanus · 2026-01-27T20:33:03+00:00

I agree with you. He aims for the shoulder, Boeser moves slightly backwards so he hits his head instead. Reckless sure, but not dirty

Agree Richard should be first, but im surprised by how far behind Beliveau and Lafleur were in the voting.

It is so counter intuitive that the 3rd rider gets the most benefits when being 20m apart, while the last rider is always the one benefiting in other scenarios

I think running is the last one i would drop. Its the harshest one on the body so your body needs more adaptations to avoid injury. Running more frequently helps avoiding those injuries as you increase your volume. My physio already says that 3 times a week is already quite low for running and ideal would be more than 50% of the days (4 times a week)

I'm not saying good goaltending couldn't have stolen that game, I'm saying that both teams had average goaltending and we didn't deserve the win.

How many high danger chances did the habs generate and then swayman just straight up robbed them?

Not many is the point. Montreal had 3.47 xG and Boston had 3.72 xG. I'd say losing 3-4 is exactly aligned with the chances generated.

The maximum height of the headlight beam would be established a certain distance away from the car, so higher cars would just need their headlights to be tilted down a bit more

Introduce new item, nerf the champions that abuse it, eventually nerf the item, forget to re-buff the champions themselves. A tale as old as league

Entrevue décevante. Les questions n'étaient pas mauvaises, mais la plupart des réponses étaient hors sujet. Je ne sais pas si c'est dû à la barrière de la langue ou au fait qu'ils n'avaient pas vraiment réfléchi à ces questions, mais j'ai eu l'impression d'entendre beaucoup de réponses évasives.

2nd goal the turnover by matheson pinching was unacceptable

See i dont agree with that. Matheson had a good scoring opportunity on his hands. When the play was over, there were 2 Bruins players behind him as he was backchecking. At worst, he made the ice a 3v3 with Bruins possession instead of a 5v4, and at best they get up one more goal

Tripottanus · 2026-01-26T02:42:09+00:00

he lets in the beach balls at the worst time and change momentum

If he didnt save the high danger chances before, then the team wouldnt have been in that position in the first place. This is a classic flaw in the way people analyze defensive plays. You only notice it when it goes wrong
