Next challenge for you: 70 and older, Pacific Islander, Trans Male.

This is probably what I'd go with, for practical reasons

So we actually did pretty well

Tristan Jarry? That guy is with the Pens! Whatever team he is on, count me on their bandwagon for now

Not sure how they'll go forward in the show with that last scene, without the walking plot device character from the books to pin it on.

Yeah I'm a 50 now too, 20 in each of 36/37/38 (so 60)

I PMed Kuzie to see if I could move Figgarowta-Nahimal, he answered my question with a few questions of his own, I replied to his questions, and then never heard anything back. I'm not going to read into that an approval of a move, so I'll keep him at his current position. Instead, I'll move Lucas Smith to defense, even though he has 0 defensive ability. I need a body back there, my offense is much more full than my defense, and my only other option would have been to call up Ryan and stunt his development. No thanks. Therefore, Smith is moved to defense.

I have a very hate hate relationship with Letang. I've never been a fan of offensive defensemen, and I think Letang especially isn't as good in his own end as he should be.

Also, it's brass tacks, not brass tax.

Open to trading whoever makes the team better. For the right price, that could be anyone. I'd rather keep Malkin of the two, Crosby is more injury-prone and has missed long stretches of his career, but I think for that reason teams might be hesitant to offer fair value. I do, however, think that retaining Fleury would be the biggest possible mistake this team could make. He makes a decent chunk of money and sucks half the time. When he's on, he's worth it, but how often is he on? I also think (and it pains me to say this, because Orpik is my favorite) we need to clear out some of the older defensemen and build the new group around Maatta, Despres and the other young guys.

Teams generally perform better under a coach with "new car smell" as I posted on one of Meg's statuses the other day, but the issue I have with this is who out there is better? Who can we replace these two with that is actually an improvement? I don't think there are coaches or GMs available that could do it.

It was originally reported that both were, but then at the press conference, the guy representing upper management corrected it to say that only Shero was fired. Bylsma probably will be, when it comes down to it, but they said they want to bring in the new GM first and see where he wants to go with it. Basically, they're firing Bylsma as well but making someone else the bad guy.

Notice how Chelsea was the farthest EPL team in the Champions League, which is the bigger prize. Notice how Chelsea was the last EPL team to win the Champions League. Defense wins championships. As far as aesthetics are concerned, sure the casual fan would like to see a flowing game with goals, but for people who understand the game at a more fundamental level, it can be just as beautiful to watch a defensively-minded Chelsea wear down such a tactic over the 90 minutes. Besides, what debt does a team owe to television viewers, in order to play a style that is deemed more entertaining? The goal is to win games, not to look a certain way while doing it, and winning games isn't something that Chelsea historically have any problem doing.

Shero fired

So I looked up this "facts and chicks" and found one fact that perfectly describes me. Does that mean I'll end up with the girl standing behind the fact?

So you're Arce's friend? You're actually active? Give him some of whatever you're on, man. He's made so many scrubs (after Spelman)...

BOTH. Mad because the Pens lost Happy because I finally get to shave

Yes, and fuck Hossa (although the year he was a Red Wing was the year we beat them in the finals, so I should be fine with him I guess)

Since this has turned into a thread where everyone posts pictures of their cars, I'll post a picture of my newest car, the Brooks Pure Grit 2:
