  1. HEADLINE: THE CIA EXISTS HEADLINE: THE CIA REALIZES IT HAS BEEN USING BLACK HIGHLIGHTERS ALL THESE YEARS
  2. A non-issue... I bet we have tasking on English forces, and we love those guys. Bingo bango. Is this really a shock to anyone? We have spies in Canada for crying out loud. We have spies in every country on the planet. Every country on the planet has spies in America (well, maybe except for Mali or the Comoros or the Seychelles...you get my point).
  3. Oh and Dontrelle made his ML debut June 9th and for Tucker it's June 8th. Hopefully Tucker will make the same impact as Dontrelle did in 2003. Dontrelle did not make his ML debut on June 9th. I remember it clearly because I was still in school and I wasn't allowed to watch because it was the Padres and in May.
  4. I woke up off the floor like 10 minutes ago and came over to check out the latest standings and was treated to this!
  5. Woo House is back next Monday!
  6. Why do people care so much about Sports radio? Seriously, who cares what one guy has to say? Which is why the LeBetard show is awesome. They know no one should care about what they say and they do it well! Its just sports, bro, get over it! There are far more important things in life to worry about than whether a sports radio guy on SUNDAY NIGHT no less knows the difference between clutch and OPS.
  7. I hate the Dolphins. Seriously, yesterday, Jim Mandich said "freaking Marlins." You can tell he's already semi-jealous at our 6-3 start b/c his precious Dolphins suck. As for the Panthers (a team I love like the Marlins)...this organization is disfunctional. No consistency. Who knows what will happen? This is such a huge offseason. No consistency. Have you been paying attention to what Allen Cohen has been doing? We've got all the top players signed long term, unlike another South Florida franchise. I meant no consistency in management. Like we've had so many coaches over the last decade. I agree though...Weiss and Horton are locked up. Vokoun is here for another 3 years. Booth is here. Hopefully we re-sign Olesz this summer, and most importantly, we re-sign Bouwmeester, long term. ...then add a scorer in free agency. Get rid of Stumpel, Peltonen, and Van Ryn too. Van Ryn is not the issue. In fact, when healthy, I want him on the ice a lot. He is a smart player and by all indications he is healthy again. Oh, and bring me Joe Nieuwendyk for coach.
  8. lol at this thread. Anyone who doesn't have Pujols number one on their list is a certifiable nutcase. Pujols is one of, if not, the best hitters in the game. His defense is top notch wherever he plays. He has great baserunning instincts. And yes, his tears can cure cancer like Chuck Norris. Ok, I exaggerated a little there but you get the point. After Pujols, I take Hanley. No doubt about that. Wright really has started to impress me as well. I used to think he was overrated big time but there is a lot of good things going on with his game. I'd take him before I'd take Jose Reyes.
  9. HOF...easily. Oh and the Panthers Ice Dancers are a waste of space. Great way to continue making my beloved team and sport look like a f***ing joke for the rest of the hockey world!
  10. Oh yeah? Well one time I asked Randall Simon for his bat and... eh nevermind, too obvious. I asked Randall Simon for his bat once also, and he said "yes"... I used it in a game the next day and struck out 4 times swinging at changeups in the dirt. That had never happened to me before. Magic bat. But I bet you could hit a fastball! :mischief
  11. Scary. I really liked Rocco as a player and I hope he can find some answers to this. I have personal experience with an issue like that hitting close to home. My aunt has a rare disorder that is not life threatening to my knowledge but is really debilitating. Thankfully, its been contained but its something she'll have to live with for the rest of her life I think.
  12. I wouldnt go that far, they are still a good team, but last year was their peak, they have no place to go but down. Sarcasm detector=0? :confused
  13. Things are Looking Up... Not so much for the Panthers but for the blog. Head on over to the New York Times Slapshot Blog to see our contribution to their hockey blog! Slapshot Blog :mischief
  14. awesome, congrats man! :thumbup Can't all be Hurricanes I guess... :hat I figured I wouldn't go to UF and suffer my dad's insults...and I figured I wouldn't go to FSU and suffer my cousin's insults... So I picked a nice middleground so I could keep rootin' for the Canes! :mischief
  15. Congrats, hippie. :hat No, not really. I actually despise hippies. :o
  16. I know that SoFlaFish is going to be proud of my decision. I am going to New College of Florida next year! I was accepted in December and made my decision a little while back but now I am publicly announcing it.
  17. Don't ever join a union. Ever. Unions outlived their purpose many years ago. There is no reason to join a union anymore.
  18. First thing for Loria to do after stadium agreement is signed: Sign Hanley Ramirez to a lifetime contract.
  19. I don't care that the Panthers lost. God willing Zednik is alright. I am still in shock.
  20. Wow. I thought we were dead in the water there!
  21. Big win tonight for the Cats, coming from behind with 2 goals in the 3rd to beat Tampa Bay, 3-2. Good start for the road trip! Hell yeah! What a way to win it too, in the last 6 minutes. Very few times have we seen the Panthers win games like that in the last few minutes of the game in the past 7 years.
  22. I've got a bunch of moderately to very famous Jewish luminaries in my family but not anyone that you all would know. My g-g grandfather's generation had none other than Samuel Gompers among the family. I don't know how he's related but all the Dutch Jews from Amsterdam are so I guess that is how. Thats the story told in my family. Oh and Peter Sellers (another Dutch Jew!) is a very distant relative as well. Not much else that I can think of.
  23. Last Glimmer of Hope? Reeling from an absolutely putrid January, the Panthers had to get a win. At risk of becoming irrelevant in a bad Southeast Division, the Panthers faced off with former face of the franchise Roberto Luongo and his Vancouver Canucks. Right from the get go the Panthers played with emotion; driving to the net hard and finishing all of their checks. Predictably, the Panthers would play a hard first period only to give up a goal to the Canucks with 10 seconds left in the period. Vancouver was 21-6 after scoring the first goal of the game. In the second period, the Panthers didn't let up on the effort. 5:04 into the second period, the Horton-Booth-Weiss line would connect on Nathan Horton's 13th goal of the season. The rest of the period was played out with two more goals, one by the Canucks and one by Jozef Stumpel on the power play. Olli even got into the fray by fighting with Ryan Kesler at the end of the period. The third period started off with the types of stupid mistakes we've come to expect from the Panthers: Ruslan Salei carried the puck deep into Vancouver's zone and no one covered his position leading to Vancouver Rookie Mason Raymond scoring five hole on Vokoun. Big hits continued to be a major part of the game as the Panthers played strong defense while keeping the pressure on the Nucks (why they don't this all the time, beats the crap out of me). Coming off a power play that saw few shots from the Cats, Stephen Weiss received a beautiful feed Steve Montador and blistered a shot over Luongo's left shoulder. The Panthers and the Canucks would end the period with the Cats on a power play. In the overtime period, not much went on in the way of Cats chances. Enter Tomas Vokoun. In the last two minutes, Vokoun stopped three point blank chances, one by Ryan Kesler, one by the Sedin twins, and one by Markus Naslund on the penalty shot. Into the shootout, the Panthers elected to go with Horton, Weiss, and Jokinen in that order. The Vancouver Canucks went with Taylor Pyatt, Alex Edler, and Daniel Sedin. In a move that was somewhat surprising, the Panthers elected to shoot second. Pyatt skated in on Vokoun where he was met with Vokoun's shutting of the five hole on him. Next, Horton took the puck and skated in Luongo where he went to Luongo's left, delayed his shot, and then scored inside the right post! The Panthers now had the lead in the shootout; all they had to do was score once more and or have Vokie stand on his head. Vokoun was visibly pumped up and in a zone. Alex Edler who had scored on 2 of his 4 shootout attempts tried to go top left corner on Vokie. But Tomas stacked the pads and denied Edler's attempt to get to the shelf where Mrs. Moller keeps the peanut butter. Stephen Weiss went on to miss on his shot attempt. It was up to Vokoun now to deny the Canucks for the Panthers first win on home ice since the Ottawa game. Daniel Sedin skated in and put on several moves. As he made one last move, the puck rolled off the stick and the Panthers, especially Vokie, and the fans, were pumped up to see the team pull off such an emotional win! This team has one shot to get into the post season and that is to win the division. Somehow the Panthers have lucked into being in the Southleast division this year with no one taking charge. If the Panthers can reel off wins in the next 5 games, the Cats may be in business again. Hopefully, tonight was not just another mirage that we have become so accustomed to as Cats fans. This may be the last glimmer of hope that we see this season. But the impossible dream lives on in the aching hearts of Cats fans everywhere. This is either the end or the beginning. Make it a beginning Jacques, make it a beginning Nathan, make it a beginning Olli. Its time to play real hockey in South Florida again! www.flpanthers.blogspot.com
