Pre-Game Talk: The Windy City (Chicago….not Regina)

[The Safe Play]

because games aren't won on 5-on-5 stats...especially in very small sample sizes

I had no idea.

This makes poutine seem like health food. "deep fried chicken butter chunks" hard pass.

In fairness, the chunks of butter aren’t fried.

I don't think I even know was pizza is supposed to taste like until I go to new york, chicago or italy and eat the pizza there.

Just wait until you try the pizza in Edmonton.

The pizza in Italy will disappoint you, it's not what you think it is compared to the North American style saw

I was supremely disappointed in Chicago deep dish. Tried it a few times when I was there and just remember being really let down. Very little flavor in anything other than the sauce and parmesan cheese, and you feel like crap once you're done. Not to mention it takes so damn long to cook.

No wonder the US has an obesity epidemic lol

Hey!!!!!! Lay off my fat ancestors they like their food dammit

Hmmmmmm. That’s disappointing….

Could be worse. Could be sushi granted probably more healthy. But the texture and taste is enough to make any sane man puke.

Sorry sushi lovers

Ham and pineapple for the W. The perfect blend of different flavors. Something about how it sets off a good pizza sauce, cheese, and a salty ham. Like a taste explosion. It just works to those that like it.

Interesting article;

https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/z2vftrd#:~:text=The%20origin%20of%20the%20Hawaiian&text=But%20the%20Hawaiian%20pizza%2C%20topped,Greek%20immigrant%20called%20Sam%20Panopoulos.

At the time Pineapple was never seen here. They weren't imported. So that Pineapple here was a novelty, and a delicacy. It also spawned Sweet and Sour Chicken.

As the article mentions its odd to object to pineapple on pizza because its a fruit. Tomatoes are fruit.

Looooove ham and pineapple. It’s my fave!

Before I cared about being a somewhat responsible adult and signed my life away for benefits and a 401 I worked a woodfire pizza truck and had so much fun cooking in that thing. The pizza was great but nothing like a steak cooked on cast iron in an apple wood oven.

I don't know what to expect out of the game I just really want them to be 5-3 so the kraken fans here can stop pretending they're anything at all.

Who the f*** are you kidding ? Everything that is high in one of salt, fat , sugar or cholesterol is your favourite

I ate at the Lobster Shack in Barrington on Tuesday but went with haddock and clams.

I use to eat at JB's. Oh man, yummmy. Seafood platter was to die for. Best thing about it, I didnt have to pay for it so I made sure I got a bowl of Seafood Chowder as well.
I,m hungry now. Get off work in 20 mins and gotta drive home to New Glasgow from Halifax. Might have to stop

You also like the Indianapolis Colts so there’s that too!

Just read a pretty cool thing on FB. Remember a couple of years ago the girl in St. Louis was sick as well with Cancer when they won cup. Laila Anderson. She formed a friendship with Ben. She had his upper deck card at the game last night. She looks totally different from she did when she was going thru the treatments. She now looks like a young teenager. All the best to her

If you include playoffs, tonight is Hyman’s 100th game as an Oiler. In his first 99, he has 41 goals and 78 points.

Gene is a f***ing beauty!!!

Lol the pancake part made me laugh.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

Gene is a f***ing beauty!!!

Do you think his day to day is consumed by looking at every item and he's is swallowed into a pit of "too many puns, not enough time."

It all comes to him so naturally. He must have the right.... Gene.

Sheeeeh. Tell me how you really feel

I don’t like Red Lobster granted I’m just not a sea food guy in general.

His next 100 has potential to be even better.

Hyman aging like a fine wine. Just seems to be better every year and he started in his 20s as a NON-NHLer.

Starting Ehlinger this weekend my friend. Watch the Colts win out and go to the Super Bowl!!!

I feel l8ke I could have done that magic bean sculpture. Get a bunch of hot metal and dump it in the lake. Then shine that turd.

In fairness, the chunks of butter aren’t fried.

No need to be fair. It isn't fair that honey-infused butter sounds so delicious and is so very unhealthy in the amounts it looks like they are serving. It's literally just a big old chunk of honey-infused butter in the middle of the sandwich?

Where the fooooook is the GDT?

Reminds me of that thing homer ate on the Simpson a bit

Where the fooooook is the GDT?

Game is only a few hours away.
