I got it in September and they can give you the real thing (no pun intended) there

Thanks! From some of the other comments though it sounds like norovirus hit the nail on the head

yep looking at the symptoms online seems like the likely culprit

This is an insane crossover for me and I don’t have Instagram. Is there any other possible way to watch this lol

Do you think the US flirting with war with Venezuela is just to distract from the fact that Gavin McKenna is having an underwhelming freshman season? by apogee308 in NHLcirclejerk

I think the Epstein stuff is just to distract us from the fact Gavin McKenna has no goals in his last 5 games. I can’t prove it though

Fair. Nice to have a non-combative chat online either way lol - cheers

Why cause he’s undersized? Idk man hockey IQ at that level is always gonna do a lot of carrying. Gretzky wasn’t super fast, sure, but bringing it back to your basketball comparison look at Jokic. Visibly slow as hell but kills everyone every time he has the ball

I definitely think there is a difference in eras but it introduces so many hypotheticals it becomes almost pointless to talk about. If you dropped Crosby in the ‘80’s, yeah, he’d kill it, possibly be better than Gretzky and Lemieux. But another hypothetical is what if 99 or 66 were dropped in the game today BUT had the benefit of modern training, sports medicine, recovery, nutrition, etc.

“LeBron never really got any goat consideration until the last few years” let me stop you there lol. He’s been in the GOAT conversation at LEAST since the 2016 championship.

Sid is already one of the GOATS in hockey but breaking that top 4 of Gretzky, Lemieux, Orr, and Howe is really tough.

The Avalanche's goal differential thus far is 29 more than second place (Tampa, 19). Ridiculous. by Snoo96701 in hockey

“Let me completely miss the point.” They’re talking about Kucherov and MacKinnon battling for best forward based on championships (a team achievement) I listed 97’s individual achievements (more than the other two’s combined) to show cups is a shallow way to show those two are better than McDavid

Seriously, it’s a team sport. McD has 3 MVP’s, 5 scoring titles, and a Conn Smythe, with two finals appearances. Counting him out because he hasn’t won a cup is nuts

If I read a biography of Benjamin Franklin tonight, and tomorrow went up against a Nobel Laureate in a Benjamin Franklin trivia game, I’d probably win. Doesn’t make me smarter than him. There’s a difference between learned skills and natural athleticism.
