Re: "I Did It"
It's not so bad to get a two-month unpaid vacation when you have zero chance at the playoffs and still have $100M of salary guaranteed for the rest of your contract. Also, Braun will be making significantly more money per season when his extension kicks in next year, so he stands to lose less if su...

The Isles locked down Travis Hamonic with a 7 yr deal. I love it because he's young and already well earning the 20+ minutes a game he's getting. He may well end up wearing an 'A' after they move the 'C' over to Tavares. They also signed Naby to a 1 yr deal, which...well, I just hope Naby's got a fu...

I think Blurred Lines is awesome. Of course, at the rate it's getting played by late July we'll all be deathly sick of it (if not already), but it's a very catchy tune, great for the summertime.

That was an insane finish. I'm actually jealous of Hawks fans getting to win like that, just cray cray.
