Ducks Gameday -- Howl About That!

Anaheim Ducks (Daffy) at Phoenix Coyotes (Wiley), 6 pm
Anaheim Calling and Five For Howling -- Doan, touch that dial.

I probably was a bit too ambitious with today's cartoon tribute -- turns out it's tough to draw a Stimpy without a nose or a duck with one. Because of that, this Sleektoon ended up taking me longer than I expected, but I'm happy enough with the compromised result.

Coyotes_ren_and_stimpy_medium

I'll be around for game comments tonight, but for now I'm off to watch more of The Wire! I got the 5-season set as a late Christmas present, and it's really helped fill what would have been a really boring All-Star week off. Fuck you too, McNulty!

Actually, post isn't over yet. A table after the jump!

Star-divide

I'm not really going to add any commentary on this, but I did the legwork, so here it is. Go balance!

I’ve actually only recently seen a few episodes for the first time — they’re not that bad. I do like Tom Kinney (I think that’s his name) from his Mr. Show days, so that helps a little.

Sponebob was the turning point. Kids cartoons (on Nickelodeon. Disney’s Doug? Come on!) before that were generally good and cartoons since then have been generally bad. It toes the line.

Also if you think Spongebob is idiotic drivel, clearly you have never sat through an episode of Zoey 101 or Degrassi.

I actually thought Getzlaf played that one pretty cleanly — oh, that grab.

He’s been better this period, though — he may even get a third period point.

You don’t want to do whatever it is the Wild did. Last I looked they were solidly winning in the 3rd 4-2, next thing I know Preds won 5-4.
