At least I don't have to get piss drunk and stay up too late on a Wednesday night. I can if I choose to, but I don't have to, which is liberating.

Hey, desire to win, aka, "Montreal wanted it more than the Bruins did", is a topic worthy of beating to a bloody pulp.
 
You really can't have enough discussion about it; and also, followed closely by "The series turned as soon as Thornton squirted water at Subban, blinding him for a minute and a half in the process. Montreal rallied around Subban and his blinding and won the series because they wanted it more."

On the flip side, now we have 5 months to discuss desire to win and other assorted intangibles
Mmm intangibles. I like them so much better than regular oranges. Sweeter, easier to get the skin off.

As a fan of neither the Canadiens or the Bruins, I saw Price outplay Rask, the Montreal defence outplay the Bruins defence, Montreal shot blocking and shockingly at many moments playing more physical than Boston and that should never happen. They also took advantage of more of their chances. As a result the puck is about to drop between the Rangers and Montreal. The Penguins were victims of some of the same self-inflicted woes. It has already cost Shero his job and probably the coach will fall as well. Both likely taking the axe because Crosby and Malkin were terrible. Meanwhile Malkin has gone to Belarus to join Team Russia. He should be too tired to move after a series.

Well, the final score of 7-2 really describes the Rangers dominance in this game. The Rangers are just as fast as Montreal and bigger. The King made several big saves when it was a one goal game, the Rangers capitalized on their powerplay and Montreal took several stupid penalties to help them out in this regard. Maybe the Habs can rebound but I think the Rangers can wrap this up in five.

He currently IS a canoe.  It's like a Herbie the Love Bug sort of deal.  Or maybe a really stupid version of The Fly.

Nice work by TFP to shut down that tire fire of a game seven thread. The end of it made me want to bump every other thread until it was off the first page.

I got the reference, but, not being able to listen to the videos (sleeping baby), I don't know why McBain posted them after declaring himself Doctor of Flatulence.

In Galveston, I assume that "Death Burger" is shorthand for, "Give you a hamburger and then drown you in a hurricane."

DEATH BURGER - 9.29
1/2 lb Certified Angus Beef® with bacon, cheese, mushrooms, jalapenos & chili
 
That sounds mild.  Unless the cheese is fortified with extra cholesterol or the chili has some extra peppers in it, I fail to see how this burger could live up to its name.

That's really creepy man.

And it's not going in that kills you, it's coming out.

I googled "Galvaston, TX" and "Death Burger".  The menu was the first place that popped up.  If you know how to Google, you can find a lot with small bits of information.
