Like how Jacobs threw in Houston but we can't get in the building comment.

Kane's attorney doing the press conference in a grey t-shirt like he just got back from the gym. Is Jim Belushi going to play the lawyer in the TV movie or is this actually Jim Belushi right now?

Stockton Heat & Bakersfield Condors to play outdoor game at Raley Field in Sacramento (December 18).

A nice divisional setup for Sun Belt football in 2017:

East

Appalachian State, Coastal Carolina, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, South Alabama, Troy

West

Arkansas State, Idaho, Louisiana-Lafayette, Louisiana-Monroe, New Mexico State, Texas State

San Jose Snowflakes of the Silicon Valley would more apropos.

Houston & Kansas City ain't getting squat. As for Columbus, they're not going anywhere.

So it's Vegas or Seattle for the Coyotes in 2017 if the NHL decides to totally drop expansion. As some of us think, Quebec City gets hung out to dry.

Soon the NHL will be expanding to Mudlick, Kentucky and Truth or Consequences, New Mexico just to avoid returning to Quebec City.

NHL "accidentally" misplaces Quebec City's expansion application. Bettman swears "It was here a minute ago". In the meantime NHL oddly awards Las Vegas both expansion teams.

Watch the NHL give an expansion team to the group in a suburb of a city that doesn't even really want hockey over the ready-to-go arena in the hockey hotbed of Quebec City. Just watch it happen.

I'm expecting just that. Vegas & Suburbeattle get the teams while we wait around until 2035 when Bettman & The Yotes go kicking & screaming into Quebec City.

If Vegas has to have an NHL squad at least the Coyotes resemble some semblance of a hockey team (player wise) instead of some crappy expansion team they could end up with.

uhh, you sure? They just signed Anders Lindback.

OK completely ignore everything I just wrote.

Hey Seattle could please hurry and try and get an arena built so you can take the Sharks & Barracuda off our hands. Thank You. Much Appreciated.

No, it's been confirmed that the California teams get special dispensation to not play a full schedule because their precious existence is so important to hockey.

This would have been the match-ups if they seeded the NBA playoffs 1-16 on record:

(1) Golden State vs. (16) Boston

(8) Portland vs. (9) Chicago

(4) L.A. Clippers vs. (13) New Orleans

(5) Memphis vs. (12) Washington

(3) Houston vs. (14) Oklahoma City

(6) San Antonio vs. (11) Toronto

(2) Atlanta vs. (15) Milwaukee

(7) Cleveland (10) Dallas

Maybe Qatar won't be around in 2022

I guess we can cross off California from the admiral's places to visit list.

I think we need a separate thread for the admiral to rage on the Sharks. I think it would be awesome.

If you suck, play the Sharks. You'll win!

A Las Vegas-Arizona ice hockey game sounds like something from the fake future of an old movie.

I still wouldn't be surprised if 10 years from now Arizona & Florida are still in their respective cities and we have 6 more expansion teams.
