Comedy remains undefeated … I mean, so long as our government masters permit jokes.

Listen to, and read, Matthews stuff - he puts in real work - you may not agree with his conclusions but respect the work and its great information to add to your own info bank for your own analysis.

The reason I'm very excited for the next podcast episode (which is postponed due to flooding evacuation) is because of my research on Mike Babcock. I've researched and studied... • The Ana era • The Det era • The Tor Era • Systematic play • His influence on xG • His perfect imperfection with player quality • and more The more I learn about him, the more he reaches the term "excellence" in my opinion. As someone who was greatly against this hire, my opinion has changed dramatically. I still have some doubts for some obvious reasons, but there are topics not discussed yet; an insight into some neat evidence of what he has done and will bring. I am very excited to discuss Mike Babcock being Edmonton's next coach. This next podcast episode is a MUST-listen.

Is honkey still offensive to white people?
On the Jeffersons they used it quite a bit.
I think it’s funny.

@pk500 Them is the rules. As the TSN panelists explained at half-time.
I now get it. I still don’t like it,

Tough penalty on that first Spanish goal. It was a foul but Yamal had no possession and was no threat to score.
Futbol is death.
English
@dstaples Agree, but your post inferred the call was harsh. It wasn’t. Unfortunate for Digne, who was just trying to clear the ball. But he made a mess out of it and paid the price.
English
@dstaples He was fouled in the box. Why is that a tough penalty? Clear penalty.

@betamanic @rascalgas If you see it live, it goes by in about 5 seconds. A blur of speed.
Better on TV. Like curling is better on TV.

@rascalgas Booked the trip way early assuming we’d get to see a stage but we missed them by a few days, but was more here for the riding and hiking anyway

With regard to "Judeo Christian":
The 10 Commandments are Jewish.
The great stories of the Old Testament are Jewish.
The Jews developed the idea of subsidiarity as the alternative to tyranny and slavery.
The Jews established the cultural preconditions for the rise of universal literacy.
The fate of Israel at the hands of the Islamists is the fate of the West.
This rising tide of anti-semitism sickens me. Those of you engaging in it for your oh-so-moral reasons—you're despicable.
And remember, you proud "Christians" objecting in all your purity to the term:
Christ Himself was a Jew.
Wes Huff@WesleyLHuff
So much noise online regarding the term "judeo-Christian." Guys -- in academia it's simply the term that describes the combined corpus of Old and New Testaments. The Jewish heritage of the Hebrew scriptures combined with the New Testament. That's it. I know you want there to be some conspiracy but there isnt, that's the way we're using it. It has nothing to do with geo-politics or a one world order.

We fall into poor eating and exercise habits without thinking much about it when we are young.
But we now have a full-blown health crisis that is disabling and killing people at ever younger ages.
Hard to change the system for all, but we can all work on our own habits.

Dr. Andy Chan proves colon cancer is no longer a disease of the old; it explodes in young people. He revealed 8 "normal" habits you do every week that quietly raise your cancer risk: 1. Eating processed meat like bacon and deli slices

@dstaples David, when I was a child we ate fresh broccoli, fresh cauliflower, a baked potato and a pork or beef or fish dish.
The vegetables are still cheap and plentiful. Apples are way cheaper than chips and cheezies.
We had no cans of pop in the house. We were well fed and happy.

@coopsie39 @Oil_Drop Dach’s defensive reads were already bordering on iffy on the wing. Huge stretch for him to play centre, imo.
English
Dach was on with Gregor yesterday and mentioned straight up he is working on face-offs this off-season. Said he is comfortable at center and did play a handful of games at center last season. With Stauff alluding to him at center, I think we likely see it tried early-poor Sammy
Rob Soria@Oil_Drop
It'll be interesting to see how Samanski approaches camp. IMO, if he thinks he has a job nailed down, he'd be mistaken. If I were Colton Dach, I'd work on my ability to win faceoffs & playing centre. The more he can do, the more opportunity he'll get in this Oilers lineup.
