I don’t know what to believe. I wouldn’t put it past the dems to team up with China and plan this whole thing. Time is running short and their desperation to get Trump out of office before Durham acts is real.

(let me know if you want on or off the ping list)
I knew we had a lot in common!
My poor Rangers. 2 points from a playoff spot.
Ridiculous.
“Who owns the team?”
“Owwwwns.....Owwwwwns!”
The Sabres' season ended months ago. This might allow them to move sooner on dumping their dopey GM, so I guess there is a silver lining.
And youtube. The NFL youtube page has a broad selection of full length "classic" games out there.
Haven’t been speaking Canadian since I stopped following hockey.....lost my accent, eh?
Time for President Trump to order the cancellation of the November election due to the virus........
