The WHA was a legitimate professional hockey league and its stats should count toward NHL career totals. Gordie Howe is still the all-time goals leader, with Wayne Gretzky second and Alexander Ovechkin third.

Meme of a crow doing standup saying Gulf of America. A heckler boos him and tells him to get better material. The crow starts to cry realizing his only other lines are Lake America, New America, and American Ocean.

May as well post here too. If you live in the Albany, NY area (specifically Latham), please let friends know about the racist POS family that runs Taste of Italy. FYI, to make it somehow worse, this comment was made on a story about an autistic 7 year old boy that was recently found dead.

Could sports media stop referring to the Miracle on Ice as a "semifinal game?" It was a round robin matchup between the teams that finished in the top two in group play.

This is not how rounding works! Prices ending in 1, 2, 6 or 7 would round DOWN to the nearest nickel; and those ending in 3, 4, 8, or 9 would round UP (like Canada does). What's being done here is just a modern day salami slicing scam.

Roger Clemens was never on the ineligible list. And the writers vote for the first ten years. The commissioner has nothing to do with who gets in. Let him try his luck with the Veterans Committee. Hopefully, he didn't pass off too many of them.

If you had told me four years ago that Southampton and Wrexham would be playing each other in a league match today, I would've been predicting a major scandal that got Southampton relegated several tiers (e.g. Rangers 2012), moreso than Wrexham's rise up the pyramid.

Americans have questions about the shape of the Earth and how gravity works. They expect honesty and transparency from their government when seeking answers. For years, people who asked questions in good faith were dismissed, even vilified by the media and their own government. This ends today.

My father posted this to FB yesterday, and now I'm trying to find which Fox anchor or NY Post writer said it because not even he could come up with this type of idiocy on his own.
In 1991 the movie "Silence of the Lambs" first brought up the term transsexual. Interesting.
