I believe there are some of you who need to see this.
I'm taking a bit of a social media break. I'm finding I'm feeding off others' anger - specifically regarding sporting events - & it's made me realize I need to step away b/c this isn't giving me any happiness. I hope to be in a better headspace soon.

Please take care of yourselves and each other.

A world ruled by force rather than law is a world where no one is safe. That's exactly where this train is heading.

Putin's original plan for Ukraine was to remove Zelensky and install as leader a Pro-Putin leader/puppet. That is the plan Trump just implemented in Venezuela. Trump is the Putin of the Western Hemisphere.

It's really time for RBA to just light up the refs. Who the fuck cares about a fine?

I kinda love that the canes taunted the hockey gods with their dumb hockey Canada 5 interest and got *this* in return.

TBH, it’s deserved

Wow. 🦓🦓 just out here trying to murder my teams today

Couldn't hear Brass Bonamza cuz Tripp wouldn't STFU

I'm almost scared to say it, but Fredward has looked good so far.

Looks like the throwbacks make him feel young again.

It's funny that the fan narrative is still that the PP is so terrible, but they've improved 13 spots in the last couple of weeks. (30th to 17th)

I feel like I'm watching Remember The Titans where they were making calls because of things not related to the actual game
Someone needs to look into what the officials bet on today

NFL clearly has a preferred playoff team in mind out of the NFC South

Tomorrow is the more important game - inter-division, after travel. This is the right call, to be honest. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Canes are starting Freddie against Colorado????

Rod Brind'Amour said he expects Alexander Nikishin to play tomorrow.

"Don't read into the lines. Ever."
Miller working on PP2, so it looks like Nikishin indeed is heading toward a scratch for tomorrow.

Gostisbehere back on PP1.
January 2, 2026 at 6:33 PM
RBA really gonna run Nikishin outta Raleigh? He's been better than Miller, Walker & Reilly over the last 2-3 weeks. Miller has frequently looked like an AHLer the last couple of weeks.

I'm on a block heater tonight. Both teams' fans. Ain't got time for some folks' shenanigans
January 2, 2026 at 2:31 AM
He seems to be coming out really early to get dump ins. Maybe time to fake the dump and fire on net instead
If I'm Carolina, I might want to force Dobes to handle the puck. It's been an ... adventure.

Defense optional (both teams) tonight it appears

If there is one thing I learned back in ‘18-‘19…this world is bigger than the forces that want to tear it down and don’t let it steal the joy you can get in your life.

Find joy. Embrace it. Don’t let the bastards get you down.

On a day when the Kennedy family is grappling with an unimaginable personal loss, Donald Trump chose to use his platform to launch petty, vindictive attacks against them. Yet another stunning display of cruelty and utter lack of basic human decency.

Guess I'm going to have to mute the word "stranger" for a while since it'll be a few weeks until we watch it

Funny to me that Pens fans are so excited about how good they looked against a team that *checks notes* (a) played last night, (b) traveled, & (c) started a goaltender who had lost 7 games in a row coming in & has looked no better than an EBUG - at best - this season.

This might be the only way they get me to another game this season
The Hurricanes just lost Kochetkov for the year. The Brandon Bussi story is great, but is it "Stanley Cup" great?

I’m looking at the rumors linking Marc-Andre Fleury to a return. He’s the ultimate locker room stabilizer.
