1. I think Tortorella was a commentator in Canada when he said that, wasn't he? I would not put any stock in that. IF Avery is on his team he will feel differently.

Having said that...

2. Avery is still Stars' property. I don't understand how Sather can make comments like that. The Stars want him to do to the Rangers so they wouldn't care about tampering, but it still doesn't seem right.

I don't know if the Rangers' season is in the toilet or not. Time will tell. Could be Rangers/Sharks in the finals

Finals?

Sandra, if the Rangers make it all the way to the Stanley Cup... no, never mind. You already told me, and it's in my signature.

I don't know how the team will take to Tortorella. Of course Sather's stupid signings are still there, so they could continue heading South.

But if they wanted to find the exact opposite of Tom Renney, they found him. The kids like Dubinsky, Betts, Dawes, Korpikoski, Girardi, Staal, etc., will probably love him, and he'll love them.

The key is going to be how Zherdev, Gomez, Drury, Redden, Naslund, Rozsival, etc., respond to him. If they get their butt in gear and do what they're capable of, good things can happen. There is also the possibility some of these guys will get into Tortorella's doghouse quickly, and head in the other direction.

Like I said, time will tell. I don't think there are any automatic teams in the East, Boston is playing at this level for the first time, who knows what will happen in the playoffs. Same with Washington. The Rangers have had the Devils number for years, and the rest of the teams are a crapshoot.

And I do think Avery can give this team a boost. Like Bill Parcells said, 'you are your record'. The Rangers' record with Avery in the lineup was 50-20-18 or something.

Hopefully it'll come down to who has the best goalie. :)

On the NHL Live show they were interviewing the moderator of the TSN between period show and he said that Tortorella has a real dislike for Avery and said so in very strong terms on more than one occasion.
But if Sather wants to put him on the team I bet he is on the team.
Just look at the Cincinnati Bengals and Chris Henry the coach said that Henry was through with the team but when Henry came off suspension the owner put him back on the team and the coach said not a word.

Goodness, please don't use Chris Henry and Sean Avery in the same context. Avery can be a jerk (ask Martin Brodeur), but Henry...

Numerous arrests from marijuana possession, driving under the influence, substance abuse, assault, criminal damaging...

Sean Avery is not in the 'class' of Chris Henry. :eek:

She's right.

Avery may cause trouble on the ice, but not off the ice.

He doesn't have a criminal record or a history of doing some really bad things.

Since it was already "paid" for, I spent the two hours of my time watching the John Cena action movie on Apple TV, "Matchbox The Movie" even though the reviews were brutal. It was better than I expected, so I didn't feel like I had wasted an afternoon watching it. But it felt like another "Reacher"/"Neghley"/"Mission: Impossible"/"Fast & Furious" crash and blow stuff up with lots of automatic gunfire mixed in movie featuring covert CIA operatives.

I don't think we'll get a follow-up movie from this. I expect Mattel will have other toy lines to exploit.

PISTONS and THUNDER are finally testing on the stream server. PISTONS is showing the Ion/Scripps Sports promo loop filler that their NHL and WNBA feeds have, THUNDER has a "You are watching Thunder+" slate

The Clippers still haven't officially announced their TV plans beyond 10 simulcasts on KTLA, but the NBA's FAQ for ClipperVision is now live. The CLIPPERS feed is currently showing a loop of their Hawaii preseason game.

The Heat still haven't announced their West Palm Beach or Fort Myers affiliates. Since WPLG is streaming the games for free via their app, I doubt we'll be seeing the return of WPLG on stream.

So far nothing testing for the Bucks, Magic, Hawks or Hornets.

West Palm Beach is getting it on WTCN-CD/43 MNT. Still nothing for Fort Myers


Also, the Thunder's deal for KSBI/52 OKC and KQCW/19 Tulsa will be via a special cable and DIRECTV only feed of those stations. OTA viewers and Dish customers will be limited to 10 games.

Thanks for the updates on CW norfolk
Hopefully comes to sat soon!!

Not seeing 44 (WVBT-DT/44 CW Norfolk ) on my D* app for firestick

It's only available for streaming customers, they still haven't added that batch of CW stations to satellite.

Even if it was, satellite customers still can't stream their CW affiliates via the app, just the Big 4, select PBS stations and some independents (mainly the ones that have full season NHL/NBA rights)

Yes the Cowboys owner needs to fire the general manager (himself), co-owner, Chief Operating Officer (COO), Executive Vice President, Director of Player Personnel, and President of AT&T Stadium (his son) and then he should jump off of a cliff. Only then can they recover.

Jerry Jones and Jimmy Johnson had an argument about who was responsible for the dynasty building of the early 90's Cowboys.

The rest of us figured it out in about 3 years, Jerry has had over 30 years but still can't admit it. It's all he lives for, to show everyone he can put together a winner. I don't think he can. His kids only know what he taught them.

Odd that out there, Prem is only 40 cents higher. Here it's a full dollar more.

Last night it was about $4.17 gas, $6,19 diesel.

On the West Coast, a 40-cent differential is common. It used to be 30 cents before the prices rose above $3.

A "full dollar more" sounds like it may be boat gas (non-alcoholic), which is a whole different discussion.

Both non-ethanol and prem run about the same....buck more. When we were up in TN it was a buck more up there as well.

In Oregon, our premium boat gas is about a dollar more than our corn premium. Several stations only offer the non-corn premium grade.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....
