Around SBN: Kobe Bryant Isn't Up To Speed On Jeremy Lin, 'Linning'

From The Branches - Eat It Rest of Canada

WOOOO-HOOOOO! It's a toss up about what is making me happier tonight. The fact that Matty Stajan is a point a game player, that Antropov continues to be awesome, that Grabovski is one quarter of the way to the Calder Trophy, or that I just heard Leafs fans overrun Northlands Coliseum. Anyway, here are some links to read while you figure it out yourselves:

Also

Hartsburg was the wrong man for the job behind the Sens bench, any monkey who can put their diaper on halfway would’ve known that. Hartsburg coachs like Sutter and molds their team into a stringently defensive one which the Sens never really were. Sens always counted on their run-and-gun offense, that was their defense, now you’re putting a purely defense-minded coach behind them?

Nonsensical.

And they mock us for team mismanagement.

You know what's funny

When Stajan was shit and not doing anything remotely resembling productivity, Cox was all up his alley saying he should still get the “C”.

Now Stajan has done a full 180… where’s old Cox-face now?! NOWHERE.

And thus the universe is all right.

It's a good day because...

The sun is out in downtown Toronto this morning, it’s over 10C degrees, the Leafs won last night, and the Senators lost to the worst team in the league.

We’re rebuilding. They just suck. And Alfredson has a fat, new, long term contract. Welcome to Country Club Dysfunction Circus, Ottawa. Enjoy the horror show that’s going to be the next 3 years. I know Leaf fans will.

And then this happened:

But 40 IS the new 30…so…you’ve got that going for you, which is nice.

by clark4calder on Nov 14, 2008 11:05 AM EST up reply actions  

That is kinda nice. But to some people, 30 is heinously old, so that still means you are closer to death.

True story: I was talking to someone in one of my classes, and the dating scene and all the trouble it brings came up. And after I made some comment, he said to me “Well, you don’t actually count as part of the dating scene. You’re so old.” I nearly decked him.

No FJM = C4C sad :(

Very sad about the end of FJM, but given the sparse posting going on over there and what with them being TV bigshots and all, I figured the day was coming soon.

But really, it was through FJM that I found this place. I loved their ability to take apart shitty broadcasters and journalists and the most hilarious and cutting way possible, and I thought to myself, “Someone should really give Damien Cox this treatment.”

And then through the magic of Google, I found CoxBloc. And then through the magic of CoxBloc’s blogroll (you sir, are a mouthful), I found PPP.

So, I mourn their departure today.

Also, morning everyone! I’m trying to look busy.
