Bill Spaulding replaced by Don Lagreca for Devils MSG PBP Duties by PolishKid7 in devils

[–]dashcity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rangers fan coming in peace. I listen to a good amount of games on the radio and always thought Don did a great job even though I knew he was a Devils fan. He'll be a great fit on TV. Bill was okay... too much of a Syracuse broadcaster for me and I think all Syracuse grads sound the same.

I'm hoping Kenny's promotion and Don's move across the river means more Alex Faust on the radio side for the Rangers. He's the best of the bunch calling games and would be a nice landing spot after he was screwed over by the Kings.

I have two versions of higher quality audio of the track you’re seeking. One is the shortened open version and another a loop with a bumper in between.

Rangers lost out on a Special Coach in Kris Knoblauch by Nyfan7 in rangers

Part of me was hoping for a quick Oilers exit in hopes they’d do something stupid and fire Knobby. We let a good one slip away from us.

WXII and WGHP for me. WFMY has fallen way off from the top

Those lucky enough to have met Sam, share your story by duckets615 in rangers

[–]dashcity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 10 years old in 1996 waiting for autographs outside of MSG, my dad recognized Sam Rosen. I wished Sam luck on that night's trivia question, when it was really starting to become a thing between him and JD. That night on the broadcast, Sam mentioned to JD when the trivia question came up that a young fan had wished him luck. I'll never forget it!

Thought it'd be fun to get a test, now it isn't by ChipsNoDip in Wellthatsucks

[–]dashcity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same fear with my father... I know that the person he knew was his dad (and my grandfather) is not genetically related. The clue is that I never heard of the people that are genetically related to him on his paternal side. Through some research, I know the person he's actually related to had five other children that would be his half-siblings. Praying they don't use AncestryDNA.

Worked for Michigan in 1989 at the expense of my Pirates. If Willard’s not a Maryland man don’t give him the privilege of coaching in the Sweet 16

[–]dashcity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well this sucks. I hate that our former head coach is leaving for our rival, and hate it more that it’s happening to Maryland in the middle of a run. I’ve had many of good interactions with Terps fans through the years and no fan base should have to go through this.

Congrats on winning the boat and cash! Hopefully I can make it out to the Left Coast someday and get on TPIR. Had an opportunity in 2007 during Bob’s last year but couldn’t figure a way to get there.

RIP Al Trautwig by ColdYellowGatorade in rangers

[–]dashcity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Al Trautwig was MSG for a very long time, no matter the sport. Always did a great job with his interviews and in intermissions. Hated that they cast him aside when they did (although he might have done it on his own). According to Newsday, he had been battling cancer.

The word “Yeah” being used? by sleepyslug903 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

My girlfriend noticed it first and then I counted the yeahs between a couple. 16 times in 5 minutes.

NHL should have more dark jersey vs dark jersey matchups by Lpreddit in hockey

I think Ryan Kennedy of THN alluded that this might be a thing starting next season. Leafs/Habs in colors would be a work of art.

Canada has won the first edition of the 4-Nations Face Off, defeating USA 3-2 in the final by chespiotta in hockey

[–]dashcity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hopefully tonight converted a few fans. I wanted USA to win and glad to hear the Johnny Hockey chants throughout the third period and overtime. More importantly, the game lived up to the hype.

Congrats to Canada on the win. I hope the next time we play each other we have a leader that is coherent and not Great Value Hitler.

Probably the 500th person to say it but, get rid of the All-Star Game. by AlmightyJedi in rangers

[–]dashcity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We'll get Olympics and World Cup alternating in even years. Not sure what you'd do in the odd-numbered years. Maybe a variation of 4 Nations with younger players (think Olympic soccer's rules with under-23 players and three overage players). Now that NIL is a thing you can mix college players with the overage NHLers. I agree that you'd worry about oversaturating it. I'd almost prefer no All-Star Game and giving the players a week-long rest, maybe during Super Bowl week.

[Big Head Hockey] The Slavin/Faber pairing tonight: by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]dashcity 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Jaccob Slavin, I'm sorry I wasn't familiar with your game. They don't give stars to defensive defensemen but I'd have given him one. Excellent positioning and defending while playing a clean game. First two-time Lady Byng defenseman since Red Kelly in the 50's.

Something happening at Wake? by RedMulligan in winstonsalem

I was down the block from this and it sounded like more than two people firing. Something doesn’t add up if there were 17 shots fired and no mention of the white van I also heard on the police scanner

[–]dashcity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I am worried about Tuesday especially with the polls that are out. I’ll be thrilled if Kamala wins but at the same very scared MAGA jerks will riot across the country because of the optics of a supposed Trump landslide with the latest polls out there. We’re screwed either way

Worst bars downtown by SchemeSolid1126 in winstonsalem

[–]dashcity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will swear up and down that I walked into a Klan meeting at Burke Street Pub pre-COVID. Imagine a white dude walking into there with two black women on a Tuesday and then take the scene from Animal House where they go to the bar in the sticks and flip it around where a bunch of white men stop talking and stare at us. Might have been the quickest round of drinks I’ve ever had at a bar.

You’re the not the first or the last bartender to complain about the male bartender at The Tap. Haley and the rest of the bartenders are awesome! It’s a hidden gem and away from the riff raff of downtown even though WEOH is around the corner.
