Flyers aren't the only team with a strong owner, coach or POHO pushing the GM around.

Other GMs have been more than happy to leverage those situations to their advantage.

Flyers' ineptitude has been on a level of its own over the past 30-40 years tho...

Will you please stop with the 30-40 year crap!! You wanna talk about them being bad the last 12 years go right ahead, but go look at their performance over the last 40 years. Could have easily won 3 Cups in that time from 1985-2005! Should have won a Cup in 1980 and 2010 too!

By this post anyway you have zero idea what a conservative is. I don’t really care what people do with their lives as long as they don’t force me to accept or oblige their dogma. That goes for religious zealots as well as the alphabet group totalitarians.1
What I expect from judges is that the law is followed for what it says. If laws are vaguely written and the determination of that law is subject to interpretation then that law should be sent back to whatever legislative body wrote it.
There is a mechanism to change the constitution. The problem is most of the current lot of politicians are too dumb to even attempt something of that magnitude.
That leads me back to the less government and less power of people would leave us better off.
I pray that Trump gets elected and in turn any executive powers get scaled back to what was intended by the framers.
Congress hasn’t passed a real budget in I don’t even know how long.
I blame the republicans for that. Pass a budget and if it gets vetoed or the senate won’t pass it then poopnit all down until a budget can be passed.
The problem is all the finger pointing and fear mongering starts.
Enough of politics in DC and more governance please.

The biggest obstacle we need to solve as a nation is why are hockey video games so bad, seriously why?

Last one I had was xbox 360 2015. The AI is terrible sometimes. The dmen never pass it off of a center off fave off win. They always skate to the blue line and dump it in. The wingers never pass to controlled player until there are two guys in between. The goalies let in blue line top shelf wrist shots way to often lol.

If you look on the bottom of the Stanley cup in parentheses it has in bold the teams that should have won. Underneath that teams that would have won if not for key injuries.
Last are teams that lost due to a choking situation.

It's been a few years for me, but I saw the new one and it's just people playing it like it's NHL 93. Graphically it looks better, but it's meh at best.
