Maybe I'm a jackass (okay, I probably am) but I was a little bit annoyed with all the kids, when I went to see Wilco. If you want to take your kids to a concert, go take them to They Might Be Giants, or something like that. There's a time and a place for kids but it isn't a rock concert. But I just don't like kids in general, so maybe I am biased.

See, the salary cap is brought down by bad markets with low attendance. The gross profits of such franchises are hurt even more in this economy. If the league had 26 teams, with no Florida, Atlanta, Nashville, and Phoenix, the over all profits would go up, for sure. I don't think the "sunbelt" is hopeless. Dallas has done really well. And I think a market like Kansas City or even Las Vegas would probably do decently. Phoenix is hurt by being so poorly run. Everything I hear, the team does nothing to get out into the community and there's too much to compete with, what with their MLB, NFL, and

Eeh I don't know how much extra you can pay a player in the playoffs but if it's true, so can every other team. Seeing the face of your franchise walk is common place in the new NHL. Look at Marian Gaborik in next 45ish days. Look at the Ducks, they couldn't even fit rookie Bobby Ryan under the cap at the beginning of the season because all those young players, Getzlaf and Perry, have moved off their rookie contracts. Hell, they had to trade Schneider just to fit under the cap. Do you think they could have used him against Detroit when they were scrambling to get their puck out of their own en

That's the most ridiculous thing anyone has ever said on the internet.

You don't think she's totally EVIL?? She's by no means as attractive as Kate (she's totally old, while Kate is young, sexy, and Canadian). Also she's too much of a head case "oh jeeze, let's get off the sub and stop Jack!" "No wait! You looked at Kate in a way that maybe someone who use to bang someone might look at someone, let's help Jack so we never ever met and I'm still, pretty much, a prisoner of The Others!" "Oh no, I can't get these chains off me!!!" Like seriously lady, seriously.

Yes, if we all didn't hate Juliette, we might have been very sad!!

Just think how much better they're going to get! Scarrrryyy. But the sad part is, the cap works against teams like this. You draft players, develop them, and then lose them because you just can't afford them under the salary cap. But Chicago is such a good market maybe those kids will give them some hometown discounts... maybe.

Don't want to cause conflict but the Hawks won't win the cup this year. They're a good young team and they're only going to get better in the next few years (until all those rookie contracts expire and the salary cap tears the team apart ) but I don't see them getting past Detroit and if they did they don't match up well against the Penguins or the Canes. Crosby > Toews. Malkin > Kane. Hell, I'd take Fleury over the Bulin Wall. The Hawks will win the cup but not in 2009. Give it time. Course, Phoenix (Hamilton??), LA, and St. Louis all have really going, young, teams too... the West is

To me the question about Christian is, who is he? If Locke wasn't Locke then what about the other re-born on the Island guy? Did Hawkins know this would happen to Locke if they brought him back?

100% agreed. Did any of you sign up for makeitseven.ca???

Damn the two top teams gone in the first and second round. I guess it's important when you peak.

Interesting that he visited Sayid and Hurley after they left the island.

I'm secretly a diehard Wings fan. They'll probably win the cup again, what a team. I keep expecting them to fall apart but they never do!

I wouldn't call Mitchell overrated. Just ask Jerome Iginla. He's one of the best defensive defensemen in the league and he stepped it up offensively this year. Kane does get a lot of lucky goals. You really think they would make a goalie captain if he wasn't a role model/leader? Anyways, sorry to my Boston friend. Wings vs Penguins repeat this year, probably. Hmmm... Go Pens?

Last nights game was so anti-climactic, I'm really disappointed in the Capitals. The only way it could have been worse was if it was 0-0 in the third, a goal tenders battle.

That's bad mojo, man. I'd be humble on the morning of a game 7, if I was you!!!

Wait! So, season 1, episode 1, Jack wakes up with the bruises from the fight with Sawyer, but without the memories of everything that happens in the series. Season 6 epsiode 1, he wakes up, same thing, but with the memories??? I'm not following. However I did find a picture of Jack from the very first episode, with different hair, a suit, and just a few scratches on the face. Your theory on the cabin sounds spot on but wouldn't Jacob put an end to Locke becoming the leader before it happened??

Maybe it was more like "my buddies are coming to kill you"? HEY! What did Richard say, in Spanish, when asked what lies in the shadows of the statue???

Lucky, I work nights and missed too many games this season... I mean, I can turn them on at work but it's hard to follow the flow of the game when you're dealing with the kinds of people I deal with and 25+ year old equipment.. woooo. How popular are the Bruins at the moment compared to other Boston sports teams? Crosby has been getting too much criticism for being a whiner this season, he's still one hell of a player and argueably the best skater in the game. The great thing about Crosby is that he can be a set-up man but he's also a great goal scorer when he needs to be.

Oh man, oh man! So does any of the Jacob/"Locke" stuff even matter? I mean, Juliette did blow up the bomb. In fact, what was the purpose of having her fall down there and blow up the bomb herself? Why not just have it blow up when it falls?? But what if that's what was suppose to happen?! If Jacob is in charge of The Island then why did The Island tell Ben not to kill "Locke"??????? Or was it "Jacob's Enemy" who appeared as Alex?? Ahh I can't wait for January 2010. Seriously, not fair. Glad they told us where Rose and Bernard went. Oceanic Survivors remaining by my count: Jack, Kate, Sawyer,

I don't want the Wings to win again, they are Cup-hogs and need to let someone else have a chance, haha. But I'm pulling for Bruins/Wings final. I really liked the Hawks before the series but Byfuglien (who was my favorite Hawk as he was a PG Cougar and we have many mutual acquaintances, I've heard nothing but good things about him) had that smart ass grin the entire time, even when the Hawks were down 2-1 in the series. Plus, Kane had that really cocky comment about Willie Mitchell that just kind of pissed me off. So now, they're on my hate list. I'll probably forgive them after the playoffs.

RIP Panther, Sure sometimes he embarrassed me as a Canadian. He probably smoked too much weed. But he liked Wilco so therefor he'll always be a friend.

I have to be honest, that's almost how I felt I was directing a city council broadcast and all I wanted to do was go home and sulk but they went on for hours about some new police building, it was the worst night of my life, well, close! Anyways you probably just jinxed your Wings. Booo-urns! The Wings better crush the Hawks.

That is all kinds of awesome.
