LOL at Chloe. That description would fit for some of the ladies in another thread on this site.

When I posted this I expected the usual stuff so it doesn’t bother me. I honestly don’t know why I posted it here. I do think some of it is how can we call ourselves Christian and vote like we do but that is painting with a broad brush. I am just searching today
I've got a real problem with this part and since COVID it has really pushed me away from the church. Supporting Trump and being a Christian are mutually exclusive, IMO.

Yeah, I have the Denon 3800.. would buy again.Marantz, Denon, Yamaha. All good. Marantz tends to have a little warmer sound than the denon though similar. Don’t have experience with the Yamaha but they make good shit.
Marantz Cinema 50
Denon X-3800 both in that price range when on sale-

It happened last year during the playoffs, bro. Someone complained and he threatened to ban me if I didn't leave you all alone in your temple of solitude.

I wouldn’t have high hopes of that. Had relatives that “disowned” Trump after J6 and talked shit about him for quite some time. I don’t think they thought he’d be running again, so there was no harm in their talk. That lasted right up until it became clear he was going to be the R nominee. Then they were right back on the Trump train.
I’d suspect there are a lot of folks doing the same right now, on the assumption that he won’t try to run again and they won’t be in the position to flip back (because reasons).
That is exactly what my dad did. Absolutely hated him after J6 and now thinks he's a good man that we should support.

So my wife and I had our long-awaited sit-down with my parents this weekend. It went... not bad?
My mother actually apologized for her vote. My dad admitted he should have at least left president blank if nothing else, and has finally realized Dan Patrick and Ken Paxton are clowns who he has vowed not to support.
There was some defensiveness from my dad about immigration that remains pretty nonsensical, but they agreed with things like deportation being out of control, January 6th and pardons being a really bad thing (still don't see how they overlooked this in November), healtchare and education gutting being scary, foreign policy being absurd. It doesn't absolve them of their votes, but I have hope that they have been nursing the kool-aid slow enough that they may be salvagable.
Somehow we didnt even really touch on the economy, which would usually be a place they'd want to direct the conversation, so I'm guessing they're none too thrilled about that.
How much of this was them capitulating so they can see their grandkids more? Perhaps a little. But they didn't roll over entirely or immediately, and my mother is not able to mask or manipulate her emotions, so I think there was real sincerity with much of what they said.
I hope this is genuine, but I'll give you a warning. If they're still consuming right wing media it is temporary. They'll be pulled back in sooner than later. I watched it happen with my dad.

Nothing about your guy’s grabbing the stick and falling down to draw a call with 90 seconds to go in regulation though huh. But you hate it.
and, he is a marchment. Nobody is supposed to like him.
Show me video and I'll let you know what I think. I don't remember the play you're referring to (was switching back and forth between Avs and Nuggets last night). I don't care for flopping at all.
Just now, Skipper said:You whine incessantly about called penalties you don't think should have been called but aren't complaining about the refs. Got it.
watch the video above at 2:09 and let me know if that's a legit penalty or if Marchment dove (again). Avs killed it off so it wasn't a huge deal, but refs need to be better about that shit.

You turn into such a baby during cup playoffs, you know that?
I'm not complaining about the refs. That's not why the Avs lost last night. But fuck Marchment and his flopping ways. Can't stand shit like that and he does it all the fucking time.
I'm quite happy to be going back to Denver 1-1.
You guys are the bitches, though. You'll complain to blacklab (and he'll threaten to ban me) if I invade your safe space.

Last night's gem is at 2:09.

Agreed.Colorado’s second line has been very disappointing. Necas and Nichushkin have been nonexistent. Nelson has won some big draws but hasn’t look great. -
Yep. Kill off 2 PPs in a row and then get that. Love it.What a goal. Holy shit -
Marchment's flopping ass strikes again!

no it fucking doesn't. the rules allow a linesman, not the referee, to report an infraction missed by the ref. but it does not allow for a missed call to get called because a player lobbies. the ref didn't see it, but he's the one that stopped play, not the linesman.
The Linesperson must report upon completion of play, any
circumstances pertaining to:
(vi) Major penalties
(vii) Match penalties
(viii) Misconduct penalties
(ix) Game Misconduct penalties
(x) Abuse of Officials
(xi) Physical Abuse of Officials
(xii) Unsportsmanlike Conduct
Rule 20
Rule 21
Rule 22
Rule 23
Rule 39
Rule 40
Rule 75
Should a Linesperson witness an infraction (above) committed by
an attacking player (undetected by the Referees) prior to the attacking
team scoring a goal, the Linesperson shall report what he witnessed
to the Referees, the goal shall be disallowed and the appropriate
penalty assessed.
The Linesperson must stop play immediately and report to the
Referees when:
(xii) When it is apparent that an injury has resulted
from a high-stick that has gone undetected by
the Referees and requires the assessment of a
double-minor penalty.That's a lot of words. You could have just said you're mad the Stars didn't get away with a blatant penalty. Would have been quicker.
5 minutes ago, Skipper said:I'm not debating the rules. I'm saying it's rich complaining about refs when you have 2 guys that get superstar treatment consistently by the refs and citing this as evidence. To be clear, 29 wasn't writhing in pain on the ice injured. He was standing and bitching to an official while his team had possession on the complete opposite end of the ice until the ref finally blew the play dead. The point is if that is literally anyone else for either team, the ref almost certainly just shrugs and tells them they didn't see it and skates back down to the action. I mean it's a side benefit of employing arguably the best player in the league. I'm jealous.
I didn't complain about the refs, I said Marchment is a flopping ass bitch. And I stand by that. You guys are the ones whinging about the refs.

no, actually, they're not supposed to call things after the fact. that's the whole point Skipper and I are making. There was no raised arm or delayed penalty. Only until Mac started whining did they stop play, the got together, and then called the penalty. that's not supposed to happen.
The rules allow them do to exactly what they did. Maybe tell your players to keep their sticks down?

That's laughable. I don't think I've ever seen live play stopped like that well after the fact. I've seen plenty of missed high sticks where the offended player complains to the ref and they basically shrug and say they didn't see it. I don't know the broadcast view but this was all happening right in front of me. Colorado had possession and was attacking and 29 just stayed on the other end and bitched at the ref until he finally blew the whistle. I mean yes, the right call was made in the end, but I don't recall ever seeing a player call his own penalty like that.
And for 2 minute minors it never will be called. But he got smoked in the face and started bleeding almost immediately.

I'm not debating it is technically allowed. I'm saying nobody other than MacKinnon or McDavid would actually get the superstar treatment to stop live play a good 8-10 seconds after the fact when a ref obviously didn't see it live. Because from the arena it was very clear they didn't see it and stopped play after MacKinnon lobbied for it at length while play was continuing on opposite side of the ice.
My guess is that he showed the refs his bleeding face so they made the call and then reviewed it. I'd guess that would happen with just about anyone on the ice. Or it should, anyway.

actually, that's incorrect. they have to call it a double minor initially, and only then can it be reviewed and it will either be upheld or the penalty withdrawn. a single minor is not an option. what most who are not looking at things through burgundy and blue are upset about is that no call was made initially, until MacKinnon protested. the call was made after a conclave of referees, and then reviewed. it's speculation to say only Mac gets that call, but it certainly seemed to help in this case.
Yeah, they got together, called it a double minor and then reviewed it and upheld it. That's how it is supposed to work. And it was a clear penalty, so I'm not sure what the issue is?

I have an awful feeling that Montreal is going to beat the shit out of Washington this series. Hope I’m wrong but I think the Caps are so fucking overrated. Not playing good hockey right now.
They've been overachieving all season. Don't know if it was pushing hard for Ovi or what, but they aren't that good.

Absolutely ZERO chance play is stopped to review if that were the Stars or really anyone but 29. No official saw it at all. I'm not sure what it looked like on TV but it was bizarre from the arena. If that happens to anyone else the ref shrugs, says he didn't see it, and it's just another missed call (that happens all the time).
On TV it was clear as day and I was very surprised it didn't get called right away. But it was a clear penalty. I guess you're mad that it wasn't called initially? They discussed the rule that allows officials to make that call after the fact on the broadcast.

And MacKinnon is 1 of probably only 2 guys in the entire league that gets to call his own penalties when nobody in stripes see it happen live. Don't understand why an Avs fan of all people is bitching about refs when everyone knows you're going to get the benefit of calls 9 times out of 10 against anyone you play. I'll freely admit Marchment's bullshit (taking bad penalties and diving at times) is annoying and his rep costs us and him but that was a penalty whether or not he oversold it. Not sure what you are arguing about.
Lol. Are you claiming MacKinnon didn't take a high stick to the face that bloodied his nose? Rules allow officials to review if it's for a double minor, just not for a 2 minute minor. That one was by the book.

yes, if you also admit fucking makar dove - don't omit the relevant part, you hack. otherwise shut the fuck up about it. jfc
Makar does not dive. It was a soft call, though (on the first trip, not the second one).
Makar is the guy that tells a ref that a trip was not a trip (actually happened). Marchment is the guy who has been fined by the league for embellishment.

that last part was true last game, no? otherwise he could not have been sent down to the AHL. will be interesting to see if he slots in. want a complete lineup so there's no excuses later
I dont' know. I do know that the Avs tweeted out about 30 min ago that he's been activated off IR. I don't know the ins and outs of how that works.

1 minute ago, Longhorn_Fan68 said:
so anyway, back to actual hockey discussion: since Bednar is being a wiener and not giving lineups before the game, any idea if Colton comes back for this one? If not, who slots in for him? Vesey?
Colton sounds like he's out for sure tonight. And Landeskog has been activated from IR.

Maybe. I'm talking more about policies and how he lives. He is literally the opposite of what a Christian should act like and support. And yet, so many people who call themselves Christians line up to suck him off. It's disgusting.
