Gameday Thread: Sharks @ Flames
San Jose Sharks at Calgary Flames, Jan 24, 2012 6:00 PM PST
Some excellent news on Brent Burns today, whose potentially disastrous injury last night has turned out to be "more charley horse than a knee" according to David Pollak via Twitter. McLellan mentioned that Burns may be able to play immediately following the All-Star Break-- whether or not that comes to fruition is nearly irrelevant in the big picture of course, as the main takeaway from today's presser should be that he does not appear to be looking at a long-term ailment that would take him into April.
Some other news and notes from today as the Sharks try and snap their scoring skid against the Calgary Flames:
- David Pollak with the full story on the outlook of Brent Burns going forward.
- Kevin Kurz of CSN's Sharks Talk blog has more news from today.
- Nice new feature on the Daily Chomp, where staff writer Alex Aragon answers fan questions from Twitter and email.
- The ever phenomenal Kent Wilson of Flames Nation takes a look at how Calgary can "stop running in place without falling off the treadmill" as the Flames look to transition into a new era.
- Matchsticks & Gasoline previews tonight's tilt from the other end of the aisle.
Puck drops at 6:07 PM.

Dear Sharks:
If you win this game, I won’t give you any homework over the All-Star break.

You know
Homework isn’t supposed to be used as a form of punishment; it just makes students not want to the actual homework either. It tends to have the opposite effect than is intended.
Just sayin’.

And I’m kind of a teacher.. or was.. or something. Close enough, anyway.

But if I know public school teachers...
I know that 90% of them refuse to do any work beyond standing in front of the class and writing on the board. Because they work so hard. Not like those lazy steelworkers.

A win before the All-Star break would be mighty fine. Yes, that sounds delightful. Just suggesting that you should win.

Last Game against Calgary in the first period:
5 Hits; 4 Shots; 0 Goals; 7 Faceoff wins; 13 blocks

Very similar!

He did run his mouth a lot before elections a few years – the result? As expected by me = nowhere near what was promised.

I understand a republican majority means a lot of stuff will not even be worth attempting
But Obama is still a better option than anything the Republicans are offering me.

My mentality is different
most republicans aren’t exactly good (especially socially – too conservative), but Obama hasn’t offered much, so in my opinion, it’s time to try something else. Romney seems decent – not great, but ok.

Well why not try something unheard of then and go 3rd party?
I was surprised how many people at my school had never even heard of “3rd party candidates” (School paper ran a survey)

Ideally the spring primary would be everyone who wants to run, and then the fall election would be the top two vote getters from that, regardless of party, in a run-off.

I’m changing my registration to San Jose in May when my license expires, and sadly, that means I’m voting in a pretty safely blue district, so my vote there has very little impact on the House. I can send my choice of representative to support my candidate’s agenda, but control is decided in the 434 OTHER districts.

That is another thing I believe it is time to change
With the internet comes a vast interlinking of people, so why not see if a direct democracy approach is feasible. Meaning everyone would vote on every issue via internet.

I'm also a pragmatist
America is still basically a Center Right country in my view, and I’m about as far to the left as anyone I know. The electoral college still helps us cheat and get Democrats in because we carry California.

Very true.
But still, if people actually took an interest in what their government did, and we had 90%+ voter turnout rate, direct democracy would be the ideal situation, being as it would completely eliminate the need for representatives.

I see your point
But considering we seem to struggle with 40% turnout, and the sheer size and scale of the US Economy, I WANT a Republic. I think we need a class of professional politician dealing with the complex issues of government. I’m fairly distrustful of corporations, and I rely on Government to be the bulwark preventing them from exercising undue influence and power (naive, I know, as Government is far too often an instrument of corporate interests), and so I want people working full time on this stuff. I don’t think any population, no matter how well educated and engaged, is capable of that type of self-governance.

which is why the US is not ready for it by any means
But maybe if a house representative adopted a direct democracy approach for their district, it could serve as a litmus test.

The Sharks are built to play a very up-tempo posession offense

I’m trying to figure out what a general sports columnist like Ray Ratto or Steve Purdy offers any more, because there is literally no reason for them to get published. They clearly don’t know anything about the sports they cover in any depth, and apparently (despite enviable access to the locker rooms and front office) don’t care to learn.
