Now the the series with Boston is over, and the Cup is here, I'd like to ask Tyler Bozak a question.

Right after the hit/trip on Acciari, you turned to the referee to plead your case. What was it you wanted to say?

Supposedly Brian Burke talked to the ref, who said he saw the whole thing and didn’t feel it was a penalty. I’d love to hear a full explanation from that ref. I suspect he felt it was just a collision. But I wonder if he felt they both had infractions there (embellishment) and swallowed the whistle.

This is easy. "He dove." People saying his turning to complain is evidence of a penalty. Its not. If you did something you know is wrong and are afraid you'll get caught, you keep your head down until someone calls you out. Even instinctually, you try to avoid being seen. But if someone is trying to set you up, then you start complaining immediately. Acciari's fall seemed exaggerated based on the contact. So Bozak, was probably saying it wasn't a trip, it was a dive.

One time I was buying a car and the finance guy said my FICO score was over 800. Said it was the 2nd highest he had ever seen.

I was proud :)
I do finance for a living. Over 800 is excellent.

I’ve seen quite a few over 800, but what consumers should keep in mind is that there are different credit scores depending on the purpose of the credit.

You will not have the same score for a $5000 credit card as you would for a $25,000 car or a $300k house.

The variables are weighted differently in the risk analysis.

Also, the only thing Credit Karma is good for is alerting you to new accounts or new credit pulls. It is not accurate in terms of score or accounts that you think have “fallen off”.

However, while Credit Karma does not reflect accurate scores, the relative increase or decrease in your score is a decent indicator.

That was HFBlues financial education bit for the day.

That’ll be $500 please.

Thank you.

I'm a little disappointed that Credit Karma isn't an accurate reflection because I like my Credit Karma score right now. :laugh:.....:(

But you can use the relative increase or decrease as an indicator.

My CK is consistently about 30 to 40 points lower than what my actual scores are well they get pulled.

Usually it is the other way around.

My CK score is pretty close to my actual score. Usually about 10pts.

Glad to hear yours is somewhat accurate.

My guess is that you keep things pretty simple and have no derogatory accounts.

Shot in the dark here but...anyone have some suggestions or personal recommendations of things to do in Halifax? Taking a trip up there in October and I've done some googling and what not already but figured I would see if anyone on here has something they would suggest.

I don’t know, but I would imagine anything related to the sea, like sailing or fishing, would be perfect for that region.

Then again, it will be October, so.....cold n stuff.

Not sure, but look at the other players’ stats for context - I’m pretty sure all the top guys’ numbers dropped the past 2 seasons on his team.
