No. Let's not.

Enough with the politics crap on all sides. Take it to V&N.

[Dummy Hoy]

Why the fuck not? I don't go into V&N because I want to avoid the exact type of garbage that's coming up in this thread. The idea here is to discuss HOCKEY, and while Tim Thomas does indeed play hockey, this thread stopped discussing Thomas pretty quickly and devolved into the same nonsense that goes on in our halls of governance. I come here to prevent myself from getting worked up over something that's actually important.

I'm happy to avoid this thread if it remains here, but at this point it doesn't belong in RMPS. Put it as a V&N game thread and let's talk about hockey.

[The Four Peters]

I think Napkin was reiterating my post.

[Zomp]

Well this just got awkward.

[Tony the Pony]

I'm done discussing Thimas, but I'm not done discussing plans for the next few weeks. Dummyhoy, what does your schedule look like? I'm home with the kids all day everyday. I can come to Cambridge and hang out, or pick you up and we hang out here with a kiddie pool and an afternoon of beer, babystitting and BBQ.

Also, Zomp - should I put the two kids in the car and head down to RI one of these (work)days you're off? ;-)

I gave my 1205 cell back to the government of assholland, but the old 6234 is working again, I think.

He does? For whom?

Humanity. Only this time he's not saving a disc, he's saving a globe.

The thread title is about Thimas being a homophobe/chikFila. There was really only one place for the thread to go.

Desperately Unfunny Land?

I prefer to think if his good times, though, like when he left buttfucked Roberto Luongo with his bacon torpedo and left the Sedins slipping on Luongo's maple syruptorum.

I got two more weeks of work left for the summer...I generally have to be home after work to keep an eye on the dog until 6:00 or so. We'll make something happen.

That's where it started, but then took a sharp left into Lame Putdown Land.

The least you can do is mention my mother.

Third week of August beer in Beverly week then?

EDIT (the way things look we'll probably emigrate around August 20)

Yeah that should tell you our collective opinion of your mother.

Perhaps before then. I'll call you.

[SidelineCameras]

Just imagine how bad these threads are going to be if there's a lockout.

[TheStoryofYourRedRightAnkle]

I dunno, Dummy and Tony arranged a date. I'd say it all ended happily.

You can't definitively say that until the morning after, though.

[Dummy Hoy]

Just because you're a bunch of shut-ins doesn't mean you can poop on my parade. Although I think the reality of the situation is that Nils just wants his 6XL Millwall shirt back.

Besides, this thread is an abortion, so it may as well be treated as such.

Jesus, first homosexuality, then abortion. Screw this, I'm moving to a less political board.

Why, because my hair color isn't represented in the flag?

[SidelineCameras]

Can we change the thread title to "Tim Thomas - Apparently the Crazy is Contagious?"

[Blacken]

Orange isn't on the flag.

[maufman]

Is this the thread where we discuss people who believe that both the Bible and the Mayan calendar are God-inspired, inerrant works?

[The Napkin]

No

[FL4WL3SS]

Maybe?

[BoSoxFink]

God dammit this time of year for hockey sucks......which in turn makes RMPS suck

[kenneycb]

No, that's just because of your presence again.

[BoSoxFink]

I knew someone would say it, but I didn't have my money on you. Usually BC kids are too stupid and slow to come up with a quick response.

[FL4WL3SS]

From the mailbag on ESPNBoston, Murphy hints at lockerroom antics by Thomas. Not that anyone should be surprised by this, but it explains a lot.

I know from talking to some NHL executives that Thomas now has a reputation as a selfish player who repeatedly put himself and his views before the team last season. Also, from conversations I've had with some current and former Bruins, there were other things that Thomas did within the dressing room that rubbed his teammates the wrong way.

I'd love for him to expand on the stories.

[kenneycb]

Says the guy that took four hours to respond to a poorly thought out one-liner.

And judging from Thomas' earlier comments, I assumed the stories don't have anything to do with any shower antics.

I wonder what else he did that constitutes "putting his views before the team."

Not going to the White House?

[Ed Hillel]

Too bad Bobby V wasn't an assistant coach when Thomas was here. We'd know everything.

Not to mention my deck would be correctly squared based on the Pythagorean theorem. And the term "wrap" wouldn't just be bandied about during an intimate evening with TFP's mother.

Hence the use of the word "else". I wouldn't consider his (semi?) retirement as indicative of his views.

1-2-3!

[Ed Hillel]

Your mom wants you to know that she's very proud you made it all the way to three this time.

[Tony the Pony]

So who else is going to the beach tomorrow?

[TheShynessClinic]

Might be heading to Misquamicut.

[Tony the Pony]

I'll do you a favor and not show up there with the kids, then.

I mean, if your wife hangs out with those two for a bit, you'll have no rest until she's pregnant herself

(ask Zomp - he made the same mistake)

[Tony the Pony]

On another note, is anybody interested in taking over a lease of a 2011 VW Jetta by any chance? It's the 2.5L SE model with all the bells and whistles (touch screen iPod thing and whatnot). Not sure exactly how much it will come out to by month, but we have about 18 months left and you wouldn't have to put any money down. Also comes with free maintenance.
