"War is Ineviatble"

Things with North Korea is heating up. Thoughts? Fears? Do you think they got Nuclear Weapons just to defend themselves? Do you think they did it perhaps after Iraq was taken over in order to make it pretty impossible for the US to invade them ? If they did would World War III end in the destruction for everyone?

"Malkin in the Middle"

Evgeni Malkin who former Flyers and current Penguin is comparing to Super Mario will make his NHL debut tonight (weds) with penguins. Playing center for Recchi and Ryan Malone. Rex ought know about Mario Lemieux since he played with him for several years in the Pittsburgh. Thats right, he is going as far to say that.

Malkin had his debt delayed after he ran into teamate John Leclair in the preason and missed sometime. This guy is getting lots of hype and many people think he will give Sidney Crosby (his teamate) and Alex Ovechkin a run for their money for king of the NHL in a few years.

At any rate, Pittsburgh is going to be a better team now. Maybe my playoff predicition was just a year too shy. Of course in typical NHL style, the game is not on national TV. Malkin is in the middle of a bunch of hype in the hockey world and all eyes will be on him not only for tomorrow but for a very long time. Here is a link to read.

"Nightmare on Broadstreet"

The Philadelphia Flyers lost to the Buffalo Sabres 9-1 tonight. It pains me to even type that. Honestly, call it my connection with a team I cared about for 27 years or whatever. But I saw this happening. All day I felt sick thinking about tonights game. I wasn't even looking forward to watching it. I played it in my mind, almost exactly the way it happened. A total nightmare.

Earlier moody goalie Robert Esche took a shot at his coach, playful or Esche is really unhappy. I almost think tonight was a set up. Esche has mentally been a mess all pre-season and into this season. He was rude to reporters and clearly not mentionally up to meet the Sabres the team that destroyed the Flyers last spring. Hitch knew that.

I think Hitch figured, it was win a win situation for the team. If Esche played like he did that one playoff game. Hitch would look really smart and actually have a win. Or, likely Esche gets blown to bits, and loses his last ounce of confidence and Hitch destroys him for good. Well, Hitch never pulled Esche at all. 9 goals! He wasn't pulled. Never ever saw that before. Clearly this might be Esche's last game as a Flyer. Look for him to say something really negative or weird to break the camels back the next 48 hours. He is close to a total breakdown.

I really don't know where to start. The d-men might be the worst ever assembled on any Flyers team. Hatcher on the ice in the meadowlands from Saturday's night skating to the bench. I think Freddy Meyer might have down syndrome. Randy Jones seems to forget the simple rules of not giving the puck to players wear different color jerseys.

It wasn't until Carter scored the loan Flyers goal that I realized that he is indeed still a Philadelphia Flyer. I had not heard his name since last season. My fears off trading Michael Handzus to the Blackhawks for Kyle Caldar as a bad move might soon come true. You see I figured we already have fast guys that could score, so why give up a clutch player like Zues? I guess I was partly wrong on that. Since Caldar doesn't actually score. Oh, yeah and Zues is playing great on #1 line with the leagues leading scorer.

I don't know....what do they do fire Hitch? Nah, they just gave him two more years. I gave up the pipedream of Clarke being fired. He will never lose his job. Ever. Anyone other GM would have been fired 5 times with the mistakes he made. All the Clarke must go websites even stopped being funny about 2 years ago.

I really think the Flyers should do what have been rumored to be interested in. Sign Brian Leetch. I know he is old, but honestly the d-men are just awful. With Rico and Johnson gone there is nothing holding them together. Hatcher is awful, so how could he actually teach anyone anything? The other guys are too young and no one is helping them at all. It is totally anarchy on the blueline right now.

Hell, Sanderson and Kappy are playing on the point for the powerplay. We can't even find a D-men to help out. I bet Neved's model wife is glad she left him, and Forsberg wishes he had to have his other foot broken.

Through sickness and health. I am a fan. But this is really rough. They were painful to watch tonight. I might have to be drunk for each game by the All-Star break. It will likely be like putting 82 little dagers in my heart this season. Truely, one of the only things I loved my entire life, refuses to love me back. But yet I keep coming back like some white trash trailer slut who gets beat by their hick boyfriend.

Never learning my lesson. Always thinking the light at the end of the tunnel is coming off the Stanley Cup in the sunlight.Instead its the 4:34 PATCO running me over any throwing my body into the gutter only to have my corpse chewed on by rats.

I can't even type anymore...the start of the season is supposed to be full of hope and fun to lead me up to have my spirits crushed in the spring. Instead it nothing but humiliation, darkness and despair. A really, really dark day. I am drinking alone again tonight.

In order to offset the darkness of this post he is a picture of a guy dressed as a chicken. LOL! Look its a guy in freaking chicken suit!

"Philly's Most Disgruntled"

Disgruntled netminder Robert Esche will start for only the 2nd time this season. This will be against those same Sabres who torn the Flyers apart last spring and sending them to the golf courses early

Esche is totally miserable, and hates it here at this point. When asked about his start, he took a shot at coach Hitchock's intelligence. Clearly begging for a ticket out of here. The ship is sinking and Esche wants off.

Buffalo hasn't lost yet this season. Meanwhile the Flyers have been struggling big time only winning one game all year and dead last in the divison. Hitch is desperate and basically wrote all the names of fowards on sheets of paper and put them in a hockey helmet. He than shook the helmet up real good and picked 3 sheets papers per line.

"I Want to Party With YOU Cowboy!"

Found a pretty amusing story about Bill Murray one of my all-time favorite actors here. Anyway while we are on the subject of Bill Murray. I would really like him to play a different role in his next movie.

I mean I really respect and enjoyed the different direction he took his career in over last 7 years or so. He was great in Rushmore, and I loved that movie. He played the kind of middle-age I hate my life type of role. Only problem is he keeps playing it. Lost in Translation (although I think Groundhog Day is a better performance) was really good, but I hated Broken Flowers. I think I really hated it mainly because I had seen this same character done better. Along the way he was totally wasted in Royal.. and Lost City put me to sleep about 50 mins into the film.

Now I know he is too old do roles ( he also looks about 10-15 years older than he is) like Caddyshack or Stripes anymore. But, I want to see smart-ass sarcastic Bill again. It's time to stop playing the dying on the inside Bill Murray depress but still occasionally funny role. Again, I did like he had the balls to try different things, it actually kept his career alive, and he can do drama. I mean if he didn't he would be put on "I thought he was dead lists" like Chevy Chase.

I would love to see him play off the younger generation of comic actors out there like Ben Stiller or Vince Vaughn. Life Aquatic was a step in the right direction playing off Owen Wilson but even still he played a depressed guy. I do think however it was likely his funniest movie since Kingpin. Murray would make a list of about 25 actors who I would watch anything and everything they star in. In fact I still have a few friends who want to cut my brakes for making us go see Charlies Angels.

At any rate this article is basically about Bill Murray randomly showing up at a part with a bunch of college age kids. 20 Tucker's World Point to anyone who knows that Murray movie the title of this article references. Mr. Murray if you are reading this you are more than welcome to come over for scary movie night.

here is the story.
