I listen

But I’m not all the way there.

Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?

I would totally half ass it. But since I can fast forward through commercials and between pitches, I see almost every play. If there were more drama to the games, I’d watch them live a lot more. I also have tickets to 7 more games this year (including 2 this weekend in SF), but the only game I REALLY want to go to is the one where I get the giveaway coolers.

I don't have to always be right. I just have to always think I'm right.

I usually have every game on TV

but I just have it on in the background while I do other things.

Good for you

Draconian blackout restrictions should only be for Draconians.

don't be a lemming

this team is awful. do you hear me? awful.

a few years of getting lucky on the Rule V draft and waiver trades, and to be fair a few good trades (Mirabelli and Eaton), has led the ownership to believe they could do that every year. winning doesn’t come cheap, other teams can figure that out
