Literally: cartilage fish – sharks, skates & rays have cartilaginous skeletons instead of bone like regular fish (osteichthyes).

I was a high school bio nerd, and realized in college that the ISAT major at JMU was for me. Great diversity of sciences and still a chance to do work in Biotech. Look it up if you haven’t heard of it before.

Here’s a random overshare – when I was two, I observed something go down the drain and was henceforth terrified of the bathtub. I was in constant fear that I would go down with the clods of dirt coming off my little self. I guess I didn’t understand the concept of ‘fits’ and ’doesn’t fit’ yet, which explains why I had to guess and test to get my shoes on the correct feet.

Welcome
Now your on our turf…
If you're after gettin' the honey, then you don't go killin' all them bees.
Don’t have a good feeling about this one. Probably will have to wait for Saturday to get back on track.
"The one thing that happens with a player like Ovechkin, he’s in very good shape and used to playing many minutes a night. But he also plays long shifts," McLellan said. "If we’re going to maintain our match-up for a minute, minute and a half, we’ll tire and he’ll be more effective. We’re going to have to look at playing two lines against him – the line that starts and then the line that’s coming out fresh.
The secret is out. How much you want to bet that second line that goes out there has Patrick Marleau; both defensively responsible and capable of exploiting tired players at the end of a long shift.
If you're after gettin' the honey, then you don't go killin' all them bees.
Don’t forget Green, he’s been picking up the slack.
If you're after gettin' the honey, then you don't go killin' all them bees.
yeah, he needs to keep up his momentum from last game. Oh wait, we’re talking about penalties…. (actually, I don’t know how many penalties he took against NJ)
"Baseball is drama with an endless run and an ever-changing cast." - Joe Garagiola
Chowdah Chatter - an outlet for my random thoughts and such.
What are you talking about? He scored a goal. All is well. It’s in all the papers. They wouldn’t lie.
he had his best game of the season against NJ, so I’m saying that he needs to keep it up.

Right. Your grades now are on the transcript that colleges care about. I screwed myself with some of my freshman grades.
by Knee high to a duck on Oct 15, 2009 6:37 PM EDT up reply actions
To be honest
Fuck college and your HS grades. At this point everyone has a college degree and you’re almost definitely going to need to go to grad school. Grad school puts heavy emphasis on your college grades so if you go to an easier school and light it up you’ll get into a better grad school, which is what employers are going to look at. I gave the same advice to my little brother and my mom got mad at me, so probably don’t tell your mom that’s your plan. Go to some mediocre southern school with hot girls and keep your GPA above a 3.5 and you will be much happier with your life. I know you won’t take my advice, but one day you’ll look back and think “I shoulda listened to ol’ F&B.”

Bailey’s always seems to be dimly lit, but maybe that’s just the hours I’m there. I think I’d probably go with Bailey’s, Carpool, or Mr. Days depending on where you are coming from and your mode of transportation. Carpool is the least metro-friendly spot but it’s totally doable. I’m also always shocked by the quality of “talent” at Carpool given that it doesn’t seem like the kind of place that would attract such a demographic.

Thanks! I appreciate everyone’s help. Good luck tonight. Make sure someone slams Heatley’s head into the ice a few times, ’kay?

As a place to watch, ESPN Zone was surprisingly unterrible, but their food and beer selection was terrible and terribly overpriced. That’s really all I’ve got. I normally go to Dogfish Head if I want to watch a game, but it can be hard to get sound.

In Arlington you have some options. In the Ballston mall you have Bailey’s (big, lots of TVs, decent bar food and beer selection); Union Jack’s (Never been); and Rockbottom (I like some of the beer they brew but the food is not that great). Frontpage is right across the street. Carpool is also pretty close to the mall and absolutely huge. It has a lot of pool tables, darts, etc. but a pretty pedestrian beer selection. Down the road a couple metro stops you have Mr. Days which usually has good seating but they seem to shaft hockey with their TV selection. You can usually get them to put your game on TV (I think they have Center Ice as well) but you almost never see hockey on one of the nice TVs unless the Caps are on and basically no other remotely local team is playing any other sport.
If you're after gettin' the honey, then you don't go killin' all them bees.
Union Jacks (I only know of the one in Bethesda, right next to Rock Bottom) is pretty okay Mon-Thurs, but the weekend is nuts. It’d probably be practically delightful tonight.

2 Observations
Nabokov loves to exaggerate those glove saves.
This is going to be another game where the Caps dominate the first and come out tied. Then get steamrolled the rest of the way (think the 7-1 PHI drubbing last year).
If you're after gettin' the honey, then you don't go killin' all them bees.
The movement looks much better, Nabby is playing very well here.

he is indeed, but as a “high powered offense” when you get that many pp’s in a row basically, shouldnt you have more than one to show for it
Yes, but there’s a difference between generating good looks and getting stoned by a hot goalie or just missing on the conversions and some of the crap they were pulling earlier in the season. There’s movement off the puck and attempts to break down the PK structure, which makes me a happy camper. The goals will come and Semin is playing like a man possessed. Green looks much more confident out there as well.
by Knee high to a duck on Oct 15, 2009 7:51 PM EDT up reply actions 1 recs
the goals won’t come from the pp that’s for sure, because there’s no way a team as good as the Sharks will have another stretch of undisciplined play such as the one they had in the first
1:5 is 20% conversion, which is a pretty good rate. Should it be 40%? Sure. I feel much better about it tonight than I did in the earlier games, though.

Does anyone know a link where I can look at blocked shot stats? As in, the amount of shots a team takes that are blocked? I’d like to confirm my belief that the Caps get more of their shots blocked than any other team. I specifically recall my frustrations during the Rangers series…and I’m feelin’ them again.

So was that the Caps’ one good period today? Team’s gotta have a nice goal differential in the periods where they play well, to make up for the others.

Yep,

I know some old SBN baseball sites are crazy about using the subject line. I think one bans you if you don’t. They use it so they could collapse the comments, but I don’t think it’s a big deal.

But Brawndo's got what plants crave. It's got electrolytes.
Disagree. That guy looked classy.
I'm so sick and tired of the refs explaining the calls like this is the NFL.
SHAMO! I KNEW I forgot someone for a penalty in SPG.

I was pissed when Jurcina got called in the 2nd; I changed it from him to Green right before the game.
Pick SPG for your chance to win probably nothing.
Really? I don’t remember another

This game shows how impressive Ovechkin’s consecutive Harts really are, considering that Backstrom was holding him back the whole time. It’s cool to see what he can do with a real center…

OV more lethal w/o puck
I think OV would be more lethal if someone else carried the puck more – his two goals tonight will back that up…

Hey, JB!
The word is DIVED. DOVE is a small, white bird!

Any win over Heatley is my favorite win.

Nice clear by Schultz to end it. Who says he can’t use the boards.

The seahawks blog here on SBN does it too… makes me not want to read it… I always skip the comments b/c of it :(
I actually got heckled for not using the subject line!
I intend on joining the Seahawks blog. Go Deon Butler.

I used to play football in recess in elementary school with Deon, and he was in classes with me up until we graduated together.

San Jose committed five penalties in the first period and then played penalty-free hockey for the next two. Amazing.

Alan May looks like a Vulcan from Star Trek.

Speaking of which, did you see that fan video of the song Closer using the scenes from Star Trek?? It was amazing.

Y'all gotta see Zetterberg's goal

Can’t argue with that.

Alan May is clueless
Ovie was the key to the game. 5 1st period PP’s only to be tied 1-1. SJ had all the momentum and Ovie took it away. Normally SJ would get the next 4 PP’s, score on 2 of them and win the game.
If that game lets me yell at other fans who complain that they didn’t get free wings, I’ll have fun blowing my voice out.
