If ever necessary, I recommend Kornblau & Kornblau.

I swear on the life of any member of my family that I did not. Did I actually get it right?

I have no idea, I took it for gospel.

Another solid one is THE LAW OFFICES OF RONI DEUTCH.

I’m quite partial to Rand Spear myself. Any video game that has Spears and the ability to name your character, I make a spear user named, you guessed it, Rand Spear.

Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe is my go to.

But I can tell you if I lived in Missouri or Illinois I’d use Cordell and Cordell.

Went and saw Japandroids at Boot and Saddle last night...pretty damn good. Super small venue.

Yep. A lot, and I mean a lot, has come out about their practices and wow if they aren't really doing some shady shady things.

I have been off for a couple of weeks and I'm not sure if I want to catch up with all the Rock or Bachelor discussions

@kimochem (I'll answer you here too)

We caught a ton of trout while we were there. We fished the Blue River in Silverthorne the first evening and caught a bunch of small browns and rainbows on dry flies. Tiny blue winged olives and midges.

The next 3 days we fished the Dream Stream which is a small section of the South Platte River between Spinney Mountain Reservoir and Eleven Mile Reservoir. It was on fire all three days. Day one we caught browns, bows, and cutbows on size 22 trico and blue winged olives dries all day. Day two we fished size 22 drowned tricos and size 18 PMD nymphs and absolutely crushed fish all morning. Once the trico hatch starts around 8AM the fish move into the feeding lanes and you can sight fish them while they gorge subsurface. It was an awesome experience. Day 3 was more of the same as day 2. Big fish on tiny size 22 nymphs all morning. The average fish we caught was probably 19 inches and thick as hell. The fish eat well out there. The biggest fish was on day 3 when I landed a 23-24 inch cutbow that had to weigh damn near 7 lbs. It was an unreal fish, and one I'll likely never forget.

Amazing. I’d love to plan a trip like that soon, it sounds fairly priced as well if planned accordingly.

Yeah the biggest trout I ever caught was a 19” Pali (albino) trout. The coolest trout I ever caught was a 16” tiger trout. I grew up wading miles of half stocked streams with a mixture of natives. State stocks are pathetic, but luckily we have a guy that used to raise and stock them himself and do it for free. They were very sizable fish.

Anyone play the NHL 19 beta? Penalties galore so far. I’m in favor of anything that limits poke spammers but when someone skates into my extended stick while I try to control my gap and falls down and I get a penalty? Oh hell no.

I gave up on that game a few years ago

As someone who plays competitive 6s and is a good poke checker *back pat*, it's horrible. That has to be toned down.

Besides the quicker agility skating, it just feels clunkier. Passing and shooting feels slower, skating speed feels slower, it's harder to make plays and control the puck. They always talk about making it more skillful, but this beta just feels like a grind fest. And the menus suck.

There are few things better in this world than watching a wild fish sipping mayflies and not break stride when you put a good cast over his head. f***, now I want to go fishing.

How long have you been playing competitive 6s?

 

[FLYguy3911]

3s just turn into a penalty shot contest.

 

[Magua]

How long have you been playing competitive 6s?

1 year almost. But I always played only with my 2-3 buddies before that from 09-16 and we typically ran a top 50-100 club by ourselves on Xbox. But we didn’t play full 6s. Usually 2s/3s/4s with computer skaters and goalie in 6s mode. Took a little time to adjust to the pace and flow, but I’m not too shabby so I got there.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

The one with Brodeur on it was the last one I bought. I just threw in the towel at that point as every year it just seemed like you’re paying for a roster update with little interesting new features. I always think about jumping back in but then I hear a lot of people still having those same sentiments & I don’t bother.

I bet I’ve played you before. I used to play all the time. Have you ever played lg?

 

[Magua]

Nope. But there’s crossover between my league and LG, be that CHL-NHL quality. Many of the players I know don’t love the LG community though. But I’m new to the 6s scene, as I said.

Yea there’s some guys in the community I’d avoid. What do you mean there’s a crossover though?

Quite a few players do both leagues.

Oh. Which league is that? The only other one I knew about was the x1hl or something like that.

I just caught a tiger trout fishing the UM Creek in southern Utah, although not nearly as big as yours. Very cool.
