Kings Gameday: Bash Brothers
I spent like an hour trying to figure out if it's possible to write about Dwight King & Jordan Nolan's heritage in a light-hearted way that didn't make me sound like a racist. I failed.
Anyway, they're both giants (6'3", ~220 lbs.), both can score & fight, and both are going to be playing with Mike Richards. The lines are kind of weird (I give them 3 Murray's) but hey, why not. It's 10 AM, who gives a shit. Besides, they've been playing together in Manchester with Linden Vey, who plays a similar style to Richards. Maybe it'll work, I dunno.
I've been playing around with a theory in my head that the Kings don't really need a "goal scorer" as much as they need a) guys who can screen the goaltender, and b) guys who can get the puck to our current goal scorers in high traffic areas. King & Nolan are both big bodies for the front of the net so we'll see if they can open up some room for Mike Richards to work.
All in all, I'm pretty excited to watch these two to play. Only one of them will likely stick for any length of time but they'll be fun to watch, at least. I'm optimistic!
By the way, does anyone know how to clear Google history? I don't want someone to look at my computer and wonder why I googled if it's still ok to say "Quadroon."
Prediction: Kings win, 3-2. Goals by King & Loktionov. Jordan Nolan beats the shit out of someone.

I don’t know if anybody else has been watching David Cross in The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret on IFC, but the resolution in last night’s finale was one of the more unexpected things I’ve ever seen on TV. A day later, I’m still thinking about it — shocking!
If you haven’t seen it, I can’t fully recommend it, but it’s got some great David Cross and Will Arnett in it — but the overall storyline is really, really tough to follow.

i was talking to someone about it this morning…i recorded it as soon as i heard about david cross and will arnett making a series. the first season was hard to follow but the second has me laughing out loud a lot.
the finale definitely made an impression…i noticed the truck but was still taken by surprise. i loved the spike jonze wrap up. it was the little things, asides and references in passing, that really made that show.

I had two buddies over who had never seen any of it — their intro was the finale. There was so much “I can’t explain that right now — it’s complicated”. :)

So right after Puck Daddy published a story about all the other guys without goals now that Gomez scored, both Parros and Loktionov, who were on the list, scored their first goals of the season.
