  1. Robot Wars is in The Sopranos I thought I was having an episode when I heard Jonathan Pearce's voice.
  2. Oh now I'm remembering others. Taylor Hall managed to get hit in the face with a skate during warm-ups: I think it became mandatory to wear helmets in warm-ups after this but I don't know how well that's enforced. Ryan O'Byrne got hit in the face by a skate (by Hall!) and finished his shift: Here's one in the recommendations I didn't know about - Dany Heatley goes for a dive and manages to hit his own teammate in the face: Pretty much all of these are an inch away from taking a guy's head off. Just a completely freak set of circumstances.
  3. There have been a few other incidents in the NHL where people got cut by skates. If anyone's seen the video of Johnson and seen the force that went into that impact, look at how light this one seems to be and what happens: Just last year Evander Kane's wrist got cut too: I know some players wear extra guards in that area but neck guards are much less common. Even in leagues like Sweden where they're apparently mandatory the amount of neck actually guarded will vary greatly from player to player.
  4. Week 43 update Three deaths this week. First one is from August, singer Faye Fantarrow: Faye Fantarrow dead: British singer mentored by Eurythmics' Dave Stewart tragically dies aged just 21 after battling a rare brain tumour | Daily Mail Online I don't even have anything else to say. Life isn't fair. Hopefully that money makes a difference. She died at 21 so she's worth 104 Base Points to @cdhafc1874, with a Solo Shot giving him 154 points in total. ================== Up next is Donald Angus, 27th Chief of the Clan Cameron: King mourns his old friend as clan chief dies aged 77 | Daily Mail Online I don't have anything to say here either. The articles say he was a good guy. I'll believe them. Cameron died at 77 so he's worth 48 Base Points to @sophia who also gets a Solo Shot for a total of 98 points. ================== Final death this week is Matthew Perry. I'm not going to add him because the details of his death are unconfirmed, and could potentially add an Unnatural Causes bonus. If it was drugs (doesn't seem like it) or if he drowned in his hot tub after a heart attack (might be) then there will be a bonus applied. After all of that, the standings now look like this: 1. cdhafc1874 422 2. JustOneCornetto 405 3. psv_killie 376 4. Karpaty Lviv 300 5. Michael W 295 6.

  5. A history of flooding would make a house less likely to burn down, surely.
  6. Is there anything more tedious on P&B nowadays than Granny Danger - the brexit supporting, retirement emigrating Granny Danger - constantly telling people in Scotland how they should vote? It warms my heart seeing people quote him and telling him he voted leave.
  7. I've finally got around to listening to this and have had it on in full about ten times in the past week. I'm listening to it right now. It's fantastic. Do it.
  8. I had to cycle through a bunch of featureless young dweebs in my mind before I figured it out. Michael Cera? Jesse Eisenberg? No, that's not right.
  9. I didn't think someone could make women's football sound less interesting to me but by god, you've done it.
  10. Carla from Scrubs is in The Sopranos. Stuart from The Big Bang Theory is in The Sopranos. Paul Dano is in The Sopranos.
  11. I haven't followed any of this in the news because what's the point. All I've really seen is stuff posted in this thread. On the telly this morning there was footage of one of the Israeli guys giving a speech at the UN. "We are not dealing with human beings. We are dealing with monsters." What's the point indeed. The sooner I win the lottery and can go and live in seclusion at least 100 miles from anyone else the better.
  12. Now they've really definitely run out of tasks.
  13. That picture took me a while to figure out because she looks exactly like Harry Potter in it.
  14. "a firearms instructor trained by the military and was recently committed to a mental health facility, according to a state police bulletin."
  15. Speaking of perfect seasons, we're in for an all-timer from the best
  16. I think I should go back to not listening to him.
  17. Did Crofty say Verstappen is the first driver to win three grands prix in the same country in the same season?
  18. "awrite Chuck get the rolodex oot and tell us what you think about all of our strategies"
