Re: 2023-2024 NHL Season
This Rempe stuff makes me really uncomfortable. He’s huge but he’s not a heavyweight but you can tell he still thinks he has to go every night. Even acknowledging it’s 50/50 he ever comes back up, they need to send him down just so everyone (including whoever the toughest guy on the other team is s...

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
As many of you know, I grew up in a small town in the west. A high percentage of people in the town owned guns. But nobody made a big deal about it. It seems like nowadays, many gun owners make a big deal about it, for some reason. I think it’s because the NRA has convinced them that they are under ...

I keep thinking that my old dog is on her last legs and on her way out. But then, she keeps rallying every time. She’s 15 1/2, which is pretty aged for a retriever mix.

Yeah, I might be splitting hairs but I’d call Miller’s Crossing more akin to an old-time film noir than an old-time gangster movie. Either way - I enjoyed it.

I only know what I’ve read in the Athletic but it seems like Howard’s “zero tolerance” clause should have been invoked? Instead, they are letting a last-place coach run off a very highly-regarded staff member?

I agree that they are in over their heads right now. But they do have a few studs - Quinn Hughes (brother of Jack and Luke) is great. Elias Peterson and Brock Boeser have offense, and Demko is a good puck stopper. But I don’t think they’ll advance past the first round.

Here’s a very interesting review of Miller’s Crossing that was done upon its 30 year anniversary. Worth a read.
The reviewer rates it as his favorite of all the Coen Brothers’ efforts.
