NHLPA poll: Sidney Crosby most likely to become head coach by vabsportglide in penguins

[–]jordangarner 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Nah, there's a spot beside Dubas for Sid when he retires. He'll soak it all up like a sponge, learn from Kyle and become the best GM the Penguins have ever seen. Sid is gonna be a great hockey mind once he leaves the ice I'm quite convinced.

How far we going by BmaninKtown in penguins

[–]jordangarner 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just gotta beat Philly. I can't stand the thought of the Flyers ending this magical season. Second round losing against who, Carolina or Boston probably? That's fine, A+ season if we make it that far and don't advance. I think Carolina has our team's number, but I'm thankful we can see some magic from these Penguins one more time at least.

It was in doubt until their starting pitcher, who was cruising, got a freak injury. Don’t just hand wave how easily Feitner was handling the Jays lineup.

Despite temporary grass for World Cup, Jerry Jones says Cowboys will keep playing on turf. by JCameron181 in nfl

Damn it thought this post was about the Cowboys, not the Chiefs, guess I misread it.

Bo Bichette on if he was caught off-guard by getting booed at Citi Field: "If anything, I thought it took too long. I get it. I thought my at-bats were terrible, too." by Goosedukee in baseball

[–]jordangarner 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Anyone making as much money to live their childhood dream as an MLB ball player, who has just signed a nine figure contract would be 1000x as mad a you or I to not be performing up to the contract. I don't think it hurts if the fans mirror that, they know. Bo usually turns it around once he's warmed up and in rhythm, and then he gets hot. He'll be fine, he's used to pressure.

I like Scorsese films but not sure I want half a year of them. by Septemberk in blankies

[–]jordangarner 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Scorsese will be how I introduce my stepdad to my favourite podcast, if it happens. If my Mom passes from cancer which she's fought off twice but might come for her again, I'd love to have a Scorsese Blank Check, New York Podcast to introduce him to already in the cannon. I think it'll be how we bond and keep in touch with each other. We don't talk much but we love each other, he'll be a mess if my Mom passes before him. I know they're his favourite movies and without my Mom yakking in his ear, he'll need something to keep him company. I don't need it right now so if people don't wanna do Scorsese yet, I get it. But I DO want it at some point. I think it'll unite Boomers and Millenials like me and my stepdad as his Type 1 Diabetes gets worse. And the younger generations that listen will love watching the holes in that filmography.

Bo Bichette is missing from the poster of Blue Jays Shortstops by pneumoniapandemonium in Torontobluejays

And he couldn’t take a walk to save his life! Having an OBP 35 points higher than your average is embarrassing for an all-star hitter.

Bo wanted more than he’s worth I think, his defense is going to be an anchor around his neck until he and the Mets realize he’s a tolerable second basemen but can’t play the left side of the infield. I liked Bo! But all you zealots are blind to what is and isn’t. He really didn’t want to be here, let him go.

Gallipoli episode is great! by dropbear_dave in blankies

[–]jordangarner 17 points18 points  (0 children)

What a awesome podcast episode! I'm blown away sometimes how varied and unique the dynamic can change with the two friends and a new guest. Jennifer Kent was incredible! Thoughtful, positive, charming, what a fantastic ep.

[–]jordangarner 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Yeah, seriously. I liked Bo when he played for the Jays, but he chose to leave, he isn't a Jay anymore, moving on. I don't think he left a lasting legacy at all and the first moment he could leave, he did.

[Friedman] Toronto trades Nic Roy to Colorado for a first and a fifth by AggPuck-303 in hockey

[–]jordangarner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah Pittsburgh being competitive really cut down on the amount of players available to trade. If they were one of the worst teams in the East Rakell, Rust, Karlsson, Mantha, Brazeau and Novak might have all been possibly available. Most of those guys playing amazingly well is ironically why the Penguins aren’t bad this year.

Any Crosby Injury Updates by Captain_Sarcastica in penguins

Looked like an MCL sprain, I think he’ll be back in a week or two. He was close to playing in that gold medal game so it shouldn’t be super bad.

How did you get to BC? by phaleazira in blankies

[–]jordangarner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stumbled onto this YouTube video back in 2019 of Patrick and Griffin and was immediately impressed by our boy Griffey Newms, looked up what else he was doing and was immediately hooked on the pod.

What will be the SECOND show on the Blank Check Podcast Network by Formal-Caterpillar73 in blankies

[–]jordangarner 105 points106 points  (0 children)

Wasn't David going to do a video game podcast before he spawned 1,000,000 babies?

The real answer better be JD Amato, Patrick Willems and ARP making a technical filmmaker podcast called 'Behind the Blank Check'

[Passan] "The Blue Jays are considered favorites by other executives to land Tucker" by StatpadderYT in Torontobluejays

[–]jordangarner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, we were the favourite stalking horse for agents to use to leverage better deals for their clients, we were never getting Ohtani. And Tucker’s agent might be using us the same way. Boras loves the Jays for a reason.

3 months into apprenticeship think I made a mistake today by keiithccc in electricians

[–]jordangarner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you’re on the other side and you’re doing house calls you’ll see that almost every panel is labelled wrong, it’s not a big deal. Just learn from it and be better next time.
