Team Greatest Game Ever - Flyers/Pens 2012 Game 2

Such a fun game, where both Giroux and Couturier had hat tricks and they came back from being down multiple times to win 8-5.



@Hurricane28 you're up, you filthy potato thief

Sadly, that was the last time they were fun.

Team Niche Sport: Nobody was going to take this so I'm 100% reaching but this is/was my sport. See, college Hurricane was having trouble making friends and finding his footing. My roommates were total burnouts and I didn't really have much in common with them. And then at the Activities Fair, I found Kronum club.

So basically it is a hybrid sport played on a circular field. It takes basketball, soccer, and handball and puts it all into one. It is not Quidditch. Thats what everyone thinks we play. And you get a certain amount of points where you score from, and double if you get it in the rings. Points range from 1 to an 8 pointer. An 8 pointer is a shot from the center circle through the ring-also called a Kronum-hence the name.

I went to Delaware, and we played other schools-Towson, Shippensburg, West Chester, and in the early days Widener. After coming up short in my first three years, we finally won the collegiate title my senior year. 2018 Champs baby. This sport was fun and some of my closest college friends to this day are the guys and girls I met playing this sport. Not only were we a sport but we were also a social club, having parties from time to time and even a formal my senior year.

Below is a video that SBNation did and your boy college Hurricane is actually the very first clip, scoring a 4 pointer-outside the wedge, through the hoop. This was actually my first ever game too.

So for Niche Sport: Kronum



The field:

It's beautiful

Are you referring to Mike Vick or Marcus Vick

The vapour rub.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

@ajgoal the other thing you could watch, if you haven't seen it yet, is "Banshee." VERY underrated little show that punched way above its weight.

Versatility is the most important thing a sports organization can value. A well managed team must be open to self-transformation. Adapt or die.

Oh, it's so excited to hear its name called!

Look at that smile! Dreams do come true.

@mja -- can I have a blood sample?

Team Card Monster: Adam Bomb

Going old school here. We didn't have Pokemon or Magic back in my day, but we did have the awesome Garbage Pail Kids, and Master Bomb here was featured prominently on the packaging. They sold packs at every corner store for like 50 cents, and I had hundreds if not thousands of them

Incidentally, the sticker card seen here was apparently sold for over 7K. Don't mind me, I'm just going to hop in my DeLorean and travel back to 1985 to punch 10 year old me in the face, but I'll be back in time for my next pick. That is, unless I run out of plutonium. Then I'll be f***ed. And without internet access.

@Captain Dave Poulin, you were too old for the GPKs, weren't you?

 

[BiggE]

Thank God for Google because I had no f***ing idea what card game monsters are. I just figured you wanted us to pick the biggest asshole from the WSOP or some other dipshit card gambling event.

I'm so f***ing angry, but my wife is going to be even angrier. She is vehemently pro-Thing and demanded I draft it.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

The mother of my next pick is my all-time favorite sex bomb ever. She was the sexiest, bombest sex bomb on "Charlie's Angels" and it was not even close. Here is a picture of her - when you see it, you'll understand why I had to watch "Charlie's Angels" whilst lying on my stomach.

Luckily for the world, her daughter took after her mother. That doesn't always happen - Judd Apatow's daughter took after him instead of Leslie Mann, which is madness.

Anyway, I don't care about horror movies, but I had to have this one, because she was one branch of my destiny.

Well, no better welcome to the Quackverse than GETTING YO ASS SNIPED.

(I had a hunch you would desire him. The good news is you can hang with him whenever you like. Blood sample mandatory.)

No blood. I may be fixing blood with a pick.

 

[Beef Invictus]

You did this

Should have done “everything you could do” to select it...

Without giving too much away, how many of us have significant others?

Significant others make the picks draft!

IT DOESN'T FEEL GOOD, DOES IT, MEATWAD?

 

[Magua]

You did this

Let’s be clear, I wanted Thingy. Let’s also be clear, you valued waffle fries over him. Waffle fries 1st overall have consequences.

Also, tell the Mrs. that we don’t stab people over picks. Well, that one time. And that other. But generally.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I needed you to cooperate. I should explain who exactly my GM is; the most persuasive man to ever live. I should by default be able to swindle my way to any pick I want.

Should have picked that as your super power.

I am Bulrog and I have the power to have all of the powers and I give the Ghibli the power of not being persuaded on this matter.

Look it's ok when it happens in my favor

Thanks. Should have a ton of down time in the near future.

 

[Striiker]

Hooooold up, this is the third time I’m the last few days I’ve seen someone screenshot a post and send it to their wife…

This is a safe space, right? We don’t talk about fight club outside of fight club, right? No snitching, right?

I didn't know you wanted a treatise on tattoos, dinosaurs, and/or crocheting, but we're all growing every day.

Mine picked "Oi to the World."

Ok, she moved above ajdog in the power rankings. (And sniped the shit out of me.)

I may be the only one living free of shackles. And it feels GOOD.
