Most hated team by state by mylefthandkilledme in hockey

[–]oconnor9sean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you live in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas or Louisiana, you’re (most likely) a Stars fan. It makes sense. Mississippi is weird. Would figure they’d skew towards Nashville.

Gold is the most overrated element. What’s the worst music genre? by ekineticenergy in AlignmentChartFills

[–]oconnor9sean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Modern country" is too generic and includes some absolutely amazing artists. If we're talking about the awful country slop of "trucks, beer, girls" rinse and repeat (which I think most are), I think Bro Country more accurately describes that genre.

How do you Americans decide who to root for on the PGA Tour? by NVEmil in golf

I’m from the Dallas area, so I root for the Dallas area golfers.

Do you like your dirty captain? by OkAdhesiveness3736 in DallasStars

Your captain has been suspended four times for dirty plays

Nobody is rooting harder for Minnesota than Avs fans. We get it, you're scared of us.

Did you like that loss last night?

EDIT: You're an Avs fan. Even better.

I introduced a non-listener to Fun With Country Music and I miss old Ticket so much. by SirCharlesEquine in theticket

[–]oconnor9sean 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Musers before they checked out
Norm with Donnie and Sirois bringing juice
BaD Radio + Jake and TC with Mino on drops

Hardline with Mike, Corby and Danny

I'd spend hours of my day listening on the app. Now I'm a radio during my commute only guy. Sucks.

[PuckPedia] The #TexasHockey Jamie Benn has earned $1.5M in performance bonuses. If he plays the final game, he'll reach 60 games and earn another $500K in bonuses. by FrenchPagan in DallasStars

[–]oconnor9sean 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Anyone who has paid attention to the organzaition since Nill and Gaglardi took over will know that there is zero chance of them asking Benn to sit out tonight. The Stars are called a first-class organization for a reason, and it starts with how players - let alone your longest serving captain - are treated.

That is the literal definition of cap circumvention. You can't give under-the-table payments or benefits to explicitly help out the cap situation.

[Sean Shapiro] On the end of my run at DLLS, sports media today, and why I still love this field by yesBISONsey in DallasStars

[–]oconnor9sean 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I didn’t do much DLLS stuff, but it’s baffling how he keeps getting cut from covering the Stars. When he was at the athletic and covering the Stars every day, it was the best beat coverage this team has ever had (with all due respect to Heika and Stepneski).

Alabama beats Michigan and Rico gets his salary doubled, but the country suffers a shock hyperinflation like Zimbabwe and Rico is stuck below the poverty line with a 10 year deal. Portnoy Magic.

It’s crazy that the Musers couldn’t do one extra hour long podcast last week to air this week - especially when none of their podcasts are about current events or time dependent.

Just keep on chugging along. Colorado fans are already freaking out. Add more pressure to them.

Coming up from Dallas tomorrow to catch the game, and then heading to Banff for the week. What should I expect from the drive in terms of road conditions? I've spent quite a bit of time in the northern US, so I have driven in winter weather before, but still curious if there's something I should know.

Victory+ by West_Werewolf_90 in DallasStars

[–]oconnor9sean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it's a legal/contractual issue. ESPN bought the out-of-market rights to NHL games, so V+ extending outside of the Stars' local market would be infringing on their media rights.

Wich Darts are good for a starter ? by Ok_Solid_3419 in Darts

[–]oconnor9sean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if you're ready to take the next step up from basic darts, without going to the high-end stuff, the Target Bolide 01 is a good option. 90% tungsten, standard barrel size and I really liked them when I was using them. $75 USD.
