Am I the only one who cringes when terry forces colloquialism with Len Kasper by calling him "Lennie" ???

Did they cross paths years ago and terry met/knew him when he was a young man paying his dues? Is it just a subtle reminder that terry is his elder? Or is terry transparently kissing so much ass they have to pretend they have a beyond a professional relationship?

Someday I will figure this out, by cracky!

Tuned in around 2:30 to hear Dan saying how dumb playoff beards are. :roll:

Shockingly, Terry not only agrees but has felt this way for a long time. :roll:

Oh...there are branding, marketing, and monetary reasons Dan doesn't like playoff beards. OK.

Dan is getting angry about this issue, which seems normal.

Hey, you know that thing that happens once a year that people get a kick out of? IT'S STUPID AND YOU'RE STUPID FOR LIKING IT!

Anytime some plutocrat cooks up an idiotic way to destroy fun in the service of profit, you can set your watch to Dan pushing it as a great idea.

NBC is the last major channel that hasn't complied with the FCC in syncing the volume of their programming to that of their commercials.

Perhaps that dipshit chairman, with Comcast's hand up his ass, should work on that.

“The players won't like this, but I wish they all would stop growing beards in the postseason,” Lazarus said, via the Chicago Tribune. “Let's get their faces out there. Let's talk about how young and attractive they are. What model citizens they are. (Hockey players) truly are one of a kind among professional athletes.

For the record no beard on me. This is just dumb. Usual slow day beat something to death and you troll meatballs to call in.

Facial hair has its place in Western society. I can only offer my support to full beards or mustaches. The typical pudgy white dude goatee is awful and so is cultivated douchebag facial stubble.

Reminds me of the classic Murph clip of Payton: "Ha...Don't call me Wally." How priceless would it be if Len dropped that on them?

Dan throwing a fit about something like playoff beards is about as Bernstein-y as it gets. Can men be Caller Bobs? He really acts like a Caller Bob.

Ok. David Shuester can't pronounce "EVERYBODY". We all know that. You know what's striking to me? How much he uses the word. I mean he must know he pronounces it wrong, right? With that said, I think he purposely writes it into his updates so he can annoy people. I mean you would think if you can't pronounce the word, and you were a broadcaster, you would try to avoid using it. This dumb ass is the opposite. He flaunts it. Weird.

I'm sure that NBC exec would argue he's trying to promote their cable network so they do 2 games of the potential 7 on NBCSN.

I grew one a couple of years ago during the first polar vortex and have kept it. I work outside and found it very beneficial. But yes, I am well aware that at 35, and with a baby face, I can easily be as confused with a hipster. It also doesn't help that I started wearing Vans twenty-plus years ago and continue to do so. So I am hoping that the stained undershirts I wear as t-shirts and the approaching middle-age man boobs I have will give the impression that I'm just a lazy piece of shit and not a hipster.

Facial hair has its place in Western society. I can only offer my support to full beards or mustaches. The typical pudgy white dude goatee is awful and so is cultivated douchebag facial stubble. The idea of the playoff beard is dumb. Any fan who grows one with the team should be ritually killed and turned into Soylent Green.

The "MMA Wanna Be Tough Guy Goatee" that is sported by seemingly every fat, out of shape loser with some random MMA shirt on and is always "training for the UFC" has been really bad for a really long time. It's probably set back Western society at least 20 years. That was a long string of words but I am mad as hell.

A goatee is mandatory for downstaters.
