I loved him in Tommy Boy too. He was so good.

If anyone is braving the trip to Boston this weekend try to keep safe. Apparently there are roaming gangs of Antifa thugs killing locals, robbing tourists and burning the city to the ground. It has gotten so bad Bubbasucker has said he might pull the World Cup games from Massachusetts over safety concerns. Sure, statistics say crime is down. Sure, the mayor has gone on the news and on podcasts to tell everyone how safe the city is. Sure, media have pointed out that he actually doesn't have the authority to unilaterally change World Cup venues. Sure, Northeastern says the reason it is moving home games out of the city is because of its arena. The truth is out there! Please use caution if you travel to the city. It sounds like a warzone worse than Chicago and Portland combined!
Complete nonsense, I am happy I don't live in your world.

Thanks for the link, and just to get it right, that asshole RA was from Fort Kent, come to think of it.
My apologies to Calais. I had a bona-fide GF from there back in the day. Her dad held a local office, and she was pretty amazing while she still found me amusing.
(Her surname was waaay Irish, and started with a "G".) That's a hint. One of my old Maine pucks is earmarked for the winner.
To get back to hockey, this team needs an on-ice leader such as Harrison Scott, who took the team over both during games and in the locker room. There are hard-nosed guys on this team, but it seems to me that there's not a lot of leadership,

Breen and Brazealle were the true team leaders. Scott was awesome in that he led by effort, high energy level, and example, probably the hardest worker. Last year the team just had an exceptional leadership group.
I feel like the younger players, there is exception of course, think skill can offset just plain old hard work. Maybe at some point or with some teams it can, but to me its still a lunch pail sport. But Im upper middle age
so maybe thats changing with the sport IDK , just watch nhl pre mid season to see that.
However Barr's preferred culture is to work hard and success follows. Its going to take the veterans to set the pace - every game - no exceptions. It comes hard but it will.

Thank you for your attetion to this issue
You do know that Chestnut Hill is nothing like the Boston areas you are concerned about. Not sure if the entire state of Maine has any area that can compare to it.
Closest comparison is probably Lewiston or Biddeford.

Good God. Men's hoops stinks like a road-killed skunk in July. I've played more disciplined teams during my decades in the Y leagues.

Sorry, but Bubbasucker doesn't differentiate. You're just as guilty as the immigrant kid from Dorchester or white trash from Southie. ICE will be happy to detain you all and let the court sort it out. Or not. Maybe you'll be sent to South Sudan anyway. You're just another step towards filling their quota. I don't make the rules.
Isn't living under Fascism fun?
My final thought on last weekend; I saw some people say they thought Maine played lazy or uninspired, especially on Saturday. I dont agree. I do think they started the game maybe a bit overconfident and maybe a bit arrogant, for maybe the first ten minutes or so, but after that I think they played to win, and spent much of the game in the Vermont zone. But anyway, that's in the past.
Anybody going this coming weekend on the Heights? I'll be there on Friday, hoping they have a better result than last year's Friday game down there, which I also attended.

I will! Was also there last year, and the only way to ease the sting of last year's meltdown would be to go out there and take one tomorrow.
