The Vig

As Josh Marshall aptly pointed out, it’s a Rorschach test. As an Obama supporter, that’s the Hillary I fear. I thought she scored points all the way through. Right up to the point where she started talking about her 35 years of experience. Then she lost me. Is she honestly [...]

Shots are 31-20 to start the period. Gabriel is in the box, so things shouldn’t be too much different than when he’s ON the ice.
-And so it begins… Mucha gives up another rebound and Everett scores again. 5-2. Mucha was just too slow.
-An Everett player wants to dance with Gabriel. Gabriel runs his mouth a [...]

The Hawks are down 3-1. Shots are 19-4 after the first period. The Hawks haven’t helped their own cause much.
-Kromm finally pleads his case to Zalaski just prior to the start of the second period. The Hawks are shorthanded to start the period.
-Zalaski calls his first penalty on Everett. He matches it up with [...]

Crap, that’s what I get for not saving before I go back to texting. The Hawks have looked slow to open the game. Everett has done a nice job of flopping, getting two calls from a compliant Derek Zalaski. Mucha is giving up way too many rebounds and it cost him at 2:50 as Kyle [...]

Why these people will not speak to Fox’s OReilly is beyond me, he has a huge audience, larger than most media outlets.
Do O’Reilly’s viewers only switch their televisions on from 8-9 pm Eastern?  They don’t read the paper?  Or surf the ‘net? [...]

The WHL trade deadline is Thursday at 2pm.  That means tomorrow night could be the final game for a player or two.  Who’s leaving and what will the Hawks get in return?
Mucha is far and away Portland’s most desired player and no doubt Goldsmith has fielded a call or two on him.  Jimmy is in [...]

Arthur Blank, the guy behind Home Depot and now owner of the Atlanta Falcons, has been burned a few times in the last 12-months.  First he found out his star quarterback and face of his franchise was a liar and a criminal.  Then his new coach, the guy brought in specifically to work with the [...]

I got into this blogging thing back in 2004 by answering an open call on OregonLive.  In my introductory e-mail, I explained I was a reformed Dittohead who voted for Bush in 2000 but had become disillusioned with what had become of my party.  It was a combination of so many different things.  The war.  [...]

The current conservative meme suggests Obama has no record. Just two years in the Senate. Hillary tried that one out in Iowa and we know how that worked. So in New Hampshire, she’s trying a different tack. He has too much of a record.
Hillary’s aides point to Obama’s extremely progressive record [...]
