@jp_gambatese I respect the advanced stats, too. But eventually it comes down to goals for and goals against - and that’s the stat we fucking suck at. Year in and year out. No more “but we won the xgf% so…” No! Win games and get points. That’s what actually matters - and fans are sick of it
@jp_gambatese Haha! Have you people not seen how much fun he’s having in the tri-state area, where both of his brothers are signed for years, who thankfully just got a smart GM.
@trdny@jesslhardin Hey @grok what were the fees Scott Everett collected along the way though, while squeezing lp’s for capital every chance possible as the captain of the S2 Titanic. Shame if there’s no perineal guarantee to share the pain. Excited to see how his other “funds” are doing
@realEstateTrent I’d say 95% absolutely nothing useful. Based on experience, too. You do come across some good ones every now and then who know what they’re doing, and can find you good off market opportunities.
@realEstateTrent I’m around your age but with a 13 and 16 year old, and I miss when my kids were young like this so much! I think your message here is that there really is no blueprint, or clock. So don’t sweat it. But when it comes, TREASURE the time. That’s my advice, anyway.
@DevilsInsiders It’s so hard to be a fan of this team sometimes. I absolutely hate HBSE. I wanna support the players, but there should be a “sell the team” chant at every game. They’re awful. Not a single winning franchise in their portfolio. Win/loss doesn’t matter nearly as much as PnL. Sad
@AlexC_NJD Haha! This is accurate! I truly believe Fitzgerald was so dumb and bad he will never be a GM again. And our “smart money” private equity owners let that slip for years, which set the team back big time. Pathetic.
@jp_gambatese We literally went from the dumbest GM in all of sports to someone at least competent - and definitely smart. This should be a nice change from the last x amount of years. When “Fitzy” never lands another GM job again it will confirm that.
@Jacob_Naviaux Literally zero barrier to entry. The absolute dumbest of the dumb. I used to love the guys who would send me MLS listings, knew right away to ignore them.
@Rod07756533@JoeSmithNHL You’re right, he didn’t. Because he drafted Holtz 2 spots before Rossi, Silayev 2 spots before Buium. So technically we could have had the exact horses lol.
@NHLRumourReport He probably offered Fitzgerald Zucarello, a 3rd round pick, and a bag of magic beans, and if it wasn’t for all the NMC’s he handed out, he would hav taken it.
@IslesFix Not an Islanders fan - but it is IMPOSSIBLE not to love this kid! An absolute stud of a player and even better person. Wishing him a HoF career!
@jp_gambatese So they didn’t hire the absolutely dumbest general manager in hockey, potentially all of sports, and were suprised. I’m not just talking bad a sports - legit dumb and detrimental. It’d be insane for him to be in a front office again. People don’t realize that?
@ryancduff What’s the half ass insurance company she “started” and pushes all the time? Like if you’re a legit company, is this cartoon, self centered attention whore you want representing you to serious institutions? Like, wtf are we doing here?
@shawngorham Let’s be honest here - she’s a bitch who gets by on her looks and is a complete attention whore. Like everyone sees that - and you accept it or you don’t. But to threaten her IRL, c’mon now. That’s ridiculous. Don’t blame her for deleting.
@MySportsUpdate@Bengals This fat lazy fuck will pout about his contract next offseason too - guaranteed! Even if it’s evident he’s washed and on the down swing. And if the giants win without him - just highlights the loser and stat merchant he was. Glad “Chunky” has a fire “he never had before”
