Kudos to whichever genius decided to bill the Paralympic sled hockey final as "Seated Rivalry".
According to Phil Ramone's fascinating book, "Making Records", they had been trying to play it as a cha-cha, which Liberty DeVitto hated. Phil had them try several different rhythms. They landed on a Brazilian baião groove, and the rest is history.
Kopi does it! With the game-tying goal, Anze Kopitar has become the LA Kings' all-time points leader, passing Marcel Dionne.
Royal Dano and Elisha Cook probably didn't put this one high on their resumés.
Fuck that guy.
Christian nationalists?
Thursday night LA Kings Sled Hockey practice at Icetown Riverside. New player trying it out. We need a regular pusher; Coach has to push Mark tonight.
Nacho and Lentil had a hard day.
One more uppity French tradition hanging on.
It's simple. They're as full of hate as he is, and they are irredeemable.
The pride of Riverside, CA.
Whichever label wonk decided this should be the B side was a moron.
There aren't many bands that make me change stations instantly, but Weezer tops the list. SO overrated.
Not surprising. Greg Laurie and failed sheriff Chad Bianco are the two biggest grifters in Riverside County. Corrupt to the core. julieroys.com/lawsuit-greg...
Literally everyone who didn't vote for him. He bankrupted CASINOS.
Yeah, when I was a kid in Georgia I often heard people say things like, "I'm so mad I'm about to lose my religion." I've never heard it here in California, so my friends had a different perception of the song than I did.
As a Kings fan, I'm really pissed about this trade. Good luck, Warren.
I'm pretty pissed at the hack job NBC is doing with the Paralympics. Most of it is shunted off to Peacock, because of course they make fans of disabled sports pay extra. And the NBC Olympics website has no replays OR livestreams going right now. Do better!
Lentil says, "Heddo!"
Had to doublecheck the date on this
The Palantir database needs to be permanently destroyed as well.
David's daughter is very talented herself. Great future there.
"Luck and Strange" is an absolutely brilliant album. The short tour he did after its release was the only time I've ever been Floyd-adjacent. Exceptional show.
A stray retriever, about five months old, showed up in our yard a while back. No owner found, so my brother took him. They now call Banksy the world's most expensive dog, since he tried to eat a cactus and got bitten by a rattlesnake in the same week. Still very loved, though.
Thursday night practice at Icetown Riverside. Smaller crew tonight.
There are actually people trying to tell me I should not criticize Israel because I am German (you know, in a "how-could-you?" style).
The lesson from the German nazi regime is not to support Israel at all costs, but to understand that racism and genocide is wrong and needs to be opposed.
I absolutely hate that we have to go to Dallas for a sled hockey tournament next month.
To be fair, I was wishing long before the rash.
I've been very clear about these scuds for a long time.
