Cool review Dave and makes me look forward to the DVD more...  I saw some people at another site gloating how they already had their bootlegs and were happy but I just can't see how the bootleg "satisfies" these people.  I dunno.  LFL does good with the extras generallly...  Granted I'd have appreciated a couple more deleted scenes or some such, but I guess it's fodder for later releases or other ****.

Cool man, great work!

Pens finally won one, but goaltending wasn't good still.  Atlanta's was just worse.  It's been a disappointing season in PIttsburgh so far but hopefully the win helps turn some things around.  Without solid goaltending we're in for many ass whippings though so I'd be looking to deal someone for a goalie asap.

I'm not a Trekkie but I figured he was gay for whatever reason and never really considered why, just thought he was.

There was this bit on Stern one morning where they prank called him pretending to be Ricardo Monteban (sp), and it was an instant classic. 

Good for Mr. Sulu...  Finally got past that Starfleet "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy.  Now I just hope he doesn't get the demotion he always fought against on the set of the ST films!   one of the greatest stories of delusion in history.

Could my signature be used for much longer?  We shall see....  We shall see...

Sounds like a WHOLE lotta new **** in that wave but no repacks.  Odd, isn't it?

That's a new one to me Jim, and actually anything out on display in the store that is obviously for sale should be able to be sold to you.  There are overrides and such, and they should've gotten a management member (The main guy ain't there all the time but there are managers for all shifts at any given store so they should've gotten someone).

I think they jerked you around basically and that sucks ass man.

There's no excuse for the treatment and they owe you in my opinion.  My suggestion is raise hell with their district manger.  It's always worked for me to make my complaint known to every level I can get ahold of.  The district #'s usually posted at customer service or Lay-Away...  I forget.

Anyway, that does suck man.  I DID run into figures not being in the system tonight.  I got a couple of the final figures (R4 and Wookiee) and they weren't in the system so the kid rang a Blue Senate Guard I bought through 3 times.  Not clearing out their inventory tracking system but that's sorta-kinda not skin off my ass...  It is because it means an R4 and Wookiee are still in their system that shouldn't be but whatever.

Good thread to bump... 

Where the hell's John anyway?  It's his thread.

Oh my...

The thing with Gonchar though is that he (this is rumor, but from a good Pens reporter around the city) is giving a big "F You" when the coaching staff's asked him to step up his defensive play...  I guess he's being indignant about being asked to try helping clear the zone, clear the crease, etc...  Like he doesn't get that he ISN'T an offense guy at all and that he has to have SOME skill at clearing his own zone... 

I'm a firm believer in offensive defensemen on every team, especially since the Pens haven't had too much there since Larry Murphy took off...  But usually they have some defensive ability.  Kind of like 3rd line muck & grinder offensive players.    Murphy was like that...  He'd be a great help putting points on the board, he was way underappreciated on the PP, and yet he was a guy you could count on to get his **** together and get the team BACK on offense quickly.  Paired with Ulf Sammuelson, he was great because you had the best of both worlds with the two...

Gonchar though just seems to give up the puck so much and I mean really stupid **** too.  Clearing attempts out the middle, never using the boards, takes weak hits like they're open-ice checks from goons...  He's turning out to be, simply, a *****.  It's frustrating as **** to be a Pens fan right now.  We have so much offensive talent and a lot of it's not getting much time because we're on the defensive most of the game, and taking it up the poop shoot from even weak offenses because our D sucks and our Goaltending is weak at best.

And every time they toss Fleury down to Wilkes-Barre he just gets more and more demoralized.  The kid that was here last season is seemingly long gone and the Pens have no desire to find him.
