@Wildcoop1378 @MarkLazerus Remind us again how many players invited to NHL teams' development camps made those teams' opening day rosters? I can all but guarantee it is fewer than the number of NHL players who have had women as their power skating coaches.

@Jane_Doe82 So is wearing a plate carrier three sizes too small (and, from the appearance, maybe without the plates in it). I think it's safe to say logical consistency and clarity of thought are not his strong suits.

@nut_history BananaBall is to baseball what an off-the-Strip chorus line in Vegas is to the Bolshoi Ballet. It's sorta baseball like the former are dancers. It can be entertaining to watch asong as you neither take it or yourself too seriously.

@CdnElectWatch Pretty sure the graphics packages, like the video feed, come from FIFA. Fairly sure I've heard "golden goal" outside the context of Olympic hockey, too, but I can't pinpoint where.

@MarkandLogan @MLeeJr You don't think centre backs (mostly, but possibly outer ones too) wouldn't adapt and start pushing higher lines to plat attackers off?

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@FrenzWuiMade @KrakenCanada Or maybe, just maaaaaybe, people who actually live in Seattle know a little more about where they live than people who visit for a day or two once a year?

I've lived from coast to coast and have yet to find a city which didn't have its sketchy areas or people.

@KyleN82 @TWolfpacks @AlisonL You're misrepresenting things rather a bit. Parents don't continue to have *automatic* access to mental and reproductive health records after a child turns 13.

@ilyasleftnipple @warrior_coast @JoeVeyera @CirclingSports It at least used to be the Sheraton Grand, on 7th between Pike and Union. I'd avoid 3rd between Pine and Pike as an aimless pedestrian, but in general, don't beg trouble and you'll be fine

@YourWrongDummy @BillSpaulding Oh, you know what tents look like. Congratulations. Where are these?

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@YourWrongDummy @BillSpaulding I live here, you self-deluded asshat. Figures that you think you know more about the city than someone who actually lives here.

Don't you have Invermectin to inject into your taint or something aside from being wrong on the internet?

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@DiaryofJo ... which doesn't take effect for a couple of years yet. Funny how you overlooked that in becoming a two second authority.

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@Markwardthe2nd @BillSpaulding I'm not going to argue with someone who doesn't know my city.
I live here (and have in metro Baltimore as well). There are places I wouldn't advise walking through unaware, but you'll find those almost anywhere. It's a city of over 800k, and maybe 20 blocks I'd avoid.

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@slafkaj @scoupslesbian Seattle sell out their building. If attendance is your criteria, hello, Halifax Panthers. And hey, it wouldn't be that much more of a commute for Miami residents than it takes to get to Sunrise.

@itsJohnRocker 1923.

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@YourWrongDummy @BillSpaulding Voted Best World Cup host city. It's a great city. So, uh, you're wrong, dummy. Way to live up to your username.

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@FozzieOzzy @BillSpaulding 5th fastet growth rate in North America. Try again?

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@Markwardthe2nd @BillSpaulding It's not unsafe here. Half the violent crime rate of Baltimore.

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@Streamfisher123 @BillSpaulding You've clearly never been here. Yeah, other cities "solve" their homeless problems by shipping them here.
Otherwise, there's a good reason Seattle was voted the best city of all the World Cup host cities.

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@savagesuzuki94 @BillSpaulding Tell everyone you've never been to Seattle without using any of those words.

[Vanya Tucherov @vtucherov]

@puckempire Hey, you need look no further than Vancouver and Columbus.

The team still sells out the building, even if they suck. Besides, Seattlites are used to having the Mariners disappoint in new and unique ways year after year.
