Why do some call Ovechkin the "Greatest Goal Scorer of all-time" yet don't call LeBron the 'greatest scorer in basketball history' or Pete Rose 'the greatest hitter in baseball history' when each of those 3 are #1 in their respective category? #ConsistencyIsKey#NHL#NBA#MLB
@mviser@NorwayUS If you are in Chantilly, Centreville, Herndon area, please holla --- this is a FABULOUS concept --- especially on National FOODIES day!
With all the 'advanced analytics' in sports these days, there should be one known as BHP for Bone Headed Play--they could include running from 3rd on the contact play on a sharp, 1 hopper to the 3B, or throwing to the wrong base or overthrowing the cutoff man #MLB#NFL#NBA#NHL
@jimrome Jim, ever heard of the DYNASTIC NY ISLANDERS? First decade: 4 Stanley Cups, en route to 19 consecutive playoff series wins---STILL a North America pro sports team record......that certainly beats 3 Finals appearances in 9 years and only 1 Cup to date. #FactsMatter

@HistoryOfFights "Remarkable Restraint"????? O'Reilly's right elbow to Howatt is what caused the Toy Tiger to go crazy. Commentators say NOTHING about O'Reilly putting his leg behind Howatt and using leverage to trip Howatt down to the ice.
@HistoryOfFights "He might have kicked Gillies". It was clearly an INTENTIONAL knee to Gillies. Makes the Boston color analyst's earlier comments come back to haunt him!
@RealIslesICENET After Morrow's GWG, the neighbors came over to see if there was a brawl in my house because I was screaming as LOUD as a human can scream!!!
NYI GM Darche should send this email to the NHL, cc: Carolina.
We are not flying to Raleigh to embarrass ourselves in another listless effort tomorrow. Please award us a regulation LOSS and Carolina 2 points. Our effort and execution have both been pathetic recently.
