Around SBN: Lance Berkman Could Have Torn ACL

I Don't Want To Be One Of Those Guys, But...

One thing that always bothers me one fan message boards, article comments, etc. are when fans claim they could do something better than a pro athlete. Like I'll read someone comment, "I could shoot harder than Scott Niedermayer," and I'll think, 'No you can't, you idiot. Besides, he's not trying to shoot as hard as he can. Oh god why is no one else as smart and pretty as me?!' That's what usually happens. With that being said, though...

I'm about 90% sure I could beat Trent Hunter in a race from goal line to goal line. I'm 99.9% sure I could beat him from goal line to red line. Let's set this up. Give me a few hours to get acclimated to non-goalie skates and I'll be good to go. Let's get Luc out there too, I'm pretty sure that at 45 years old and with 2 left feet he could beat Trent Hunter. C'mon, Trent, you some kinda girl? It's go time! Hyah! (*pulls hamstring typing)


(What I'm trying to say is that guy's slow as shit. As literal shit. Put some skates on shit and give it a little push and I think it'd go about as fast as Hunter does.)

Sometimes I shit really fast. Other times not so much. But when I shit fast, I think it could beat Mike Gartner, circa 1996.

Bienvenidos.

Excellent first time comment on BoC.

I’m sure you could beat him with goalie skates on too.

Have you been keeping up with your lunges, Rudy?

It is that thing that I sent to you.

Lunges was too hard. Rudy’s now seeing how many lozenges he can do in a day.

I was figuring he was more of a 44D type of guy…

Let’s get Luc out there too, I’m pretty sure that at 45 years old and with 2 left feet he could beat Trent Hunter.

My dad used to say all the time that he could outskate Luc. Mom and I would roll our eyes and go “Oooookay, go score hundreds of goals, then.”

It works when your team gets shut out, too. “I could have gone out there and scored 0 goals!”

I'm glad a telecommute

They’re saying the 60 Freeway should be open tomorrow. So that will make three days with one of the region’s two most-travelled east-west arteries blocked off in both directions. I think the spillover effect from people taking alternate routes will be felt by a lot of people.
