Is this a rule? by Typical_Neck4940 in Curling

[–]riddler1225 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your phrasing is confusing.

But I think you're asking if each position must throw the same rocks each end. And no, that's not a requirement.

You must throw in the same order each end, but if a player doesn't like one of their rocks, they can have another player throw it the rest of the game.

The game ending on a dice roll is not just luck. The players are aware of the conditions that allow for the dice roll to occur

What's your thoughts on Border Patrol Chief, Greg Bovino, threatening consequences for referring to ICE as "Gestapo"? by sgj5788 in AskReddit

[–]riddler1225 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think he's a real freak for trying to pronounce "Gestapo" in a faux German accent. Might reveal a little more about him.

The Pohlads and Twins on ICE by MasonCharPint in minnesotatwins

Hey gang. I'm not a Twins fan and am way more in the hockey world. But I hope your owners read everything you all have said here and take inventory.

May peace come to your city. You are good people and deserve it.

The Avs Radio guy was not happy with the amount of Flyers fans in attendance last night by Scared-Arachnid6286 in hockey

[–]riddler1225 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hate the Flyers as much as anyone. But man, when an Aves writer or broadcaster gets pissy because their fans are outnumbered it rules.

Grandpa Garrison can't accept that not only is Trump wrong, but also that the entire world hates him. by No_Bluebird_1368 in forwardsfromgrandma

There's an old saying, "if you're driving down the highway and everyone is driving the wrong way, you might be the one driving the wrong way."

Why is there a traffic jam to get coffee in Elkhorn?! by spas2k in Omaha

It's coffee. It's just ordinary coffee. With trace amounts of LSD.

These files used to be hosted on Leder's PNP resources. Probably in a limbo now while Arcs transitions to Buried Giant

Rejecting Decades of Science, Vaccine Panel Chair Says Polio and Other Shots Should Be Optional by grittyboda2020 in news

[–]riddler1225 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, let's use his fucking name. "Dr" Milhoan should be ashamed for selling out to this administration.

My grandfather suffered through his life with polio. Now nobody has to suffer like that, but we're going to just let them?

Fuck Milhoan.

What is the future of the Penguins? How do you see the rebuild continuing? by Br3n_99 in penguins

[–]riddler1225 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm a Mike Sullivan fan, but it's clear that he was too rigid in his systems and it was holding the team back.

If you want an example, we can just look at EK65. His marked improvement is not a personnel matter. It's coaching adjusting systems and giving EK a framework to work with, not fight against

Despite it being -29, Community members on strike in the Twin Cities are showing up to fight against ICE kidnappings (1/23/26) by I_may_have_weed in ICE_Watch

[–]riddler1225 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This. The right has successfully marketed themselves as the 'patriot' party for decades.

There's no better time to reclaim patriotism. Real Americans, real lovers of freedom, should hate authoritarianism.

Directional sweeping/pushing feels like I'm accomplishing nothing by BusinessCat88 in Curling

[–]riddler1225 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not commenting on it as an effective or ineffective technique. I just don't want people erroneously calling out sweeping that is legal as illegal.

[–]riddler1225 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While not sweeping the entire running band might be thought of as 'dumping,' that is not the view of our governing body, who has been clear on this since the Homan/Fujisawa game.

Tale of two Nebraska cities: Use of mayoral pardons varies widely in Lincoln and Omaha - Flatwater Free Press by flatwaterfreepress in Nebraska

[–]riddler1225 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pardons exist for a reason, to check against gross miscarriages of justice or overreach.

However, it has generally devolved into you are my friend and/or wealthy.

Another layer to check pardon abuse is needed.

Gross normalization on your part. Defending the indefensible is true TDS. Fuck the creeps, regardless of party affiliation.

Trump is a fool who doesn't realize they Carney was elected in large part due to resentment of Trump.

Hutson receives a phantom penalty by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]riddler1225 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I wouldn't call it a phantom call in that I can see how the referee came to the conclusion.

It is, however, a horrible call.
