Here is an excerpt from his latest blog at TheHockeyNews.com
"Only this season – when they’re already dead last in the Southeast division, one point out of last overall and coming off a six-game losing skid – it seems worse than ever. Their 30th-ranked power play, humming along at a blistering 11.1 percent efficiency rate, is pitiful in a way that would put the post-Jerry Maguire career of Cuba Gooding Jr. to shame."
What is this guys problem?
This is the strangest and most confusing reference I've ever read.
Why not use something like, '...the post-Night Court career of Harry Anderson to shame.' Or, '... the post-21 Jumpstreet career of Dustin Nguyen to shame.'
Oh, and by the way, writing an article about how the Panthers suck is like beating a blind kid with a dead cat, it's very easy to do and nobody wants to see it.

While I'm on the subject of blogs at The Hockey News, Dan Akeson the twerp who follows the Rangers had this to say about New York center, Brandon Dubinsky:
"Would GM Glen Sather trade a potential Hall of Fame center, one of the most promising young guns in the game, in the dawn of his career? Let's be honest and realistic...Dubinsky is the future and is being bred into a Messier-esque persona worthy of one day taking the reigns from Drury."
Dubinsky is a future hall of famer? What HOF is this idiot talking about? Did they open a Hall of Fame for over-rated players who average half a point a game in Crotch Lake Ontario that I didn't hear about?
Also, Messier's aren't bred, they are cyborgs built by Cyberdyne Systems for the sole purpose of winning championships and hurting Europeans.

While we're on the topic of African American actors and robots... how about Obama?
More specifically, how would he have done in a Hockey Hall of Fame selection, should he have chosen hockey instead of politics?
My guess is he would have outstripped Gretzy by the time he was 22. That would have quelled the race relations issue by 1983. By waiting, and choosing politics, he only prolonged the divisions between Americans and the world.
Think of the many conflicts that could have been dispelled by the hope generated by the fact that a black man could score 100 goals in a season?
No one could beat Obama at politics, and no one could beat him at hockey. Or football. Or baseball. He's a machine!
Must disagree with you Joe. The post-Night Court Career of Harry Anderson was very fruitful. First of all He starred in 98 episodes of Dave's World, a show so witty it's often used to calm addicts at methadone clinics and is played in wall-mounted bathroom TVs of baseball games so that when MLB fans squeeze one out they don't have time to think about the demise of the great American pastime.
After a few successful TV movies Anderson published a book that taught kids how to rip off other kids using carny tricks. In one chapter Anderson tells the story of how he was taunted constantly when his classmates learned that his middle name was "Laverne", often making cruel remarks such as "Your an ugly dyke." Anderson told his classmates that he would teach them all a lesson after school. The usual bullies polished their knuckles as they looked forward to another day of pummeling the boy who would go on to play Judge Harry T. Stone. Insisting they meet him at the Old Mill, Anderson neglected to mention it was targeted for demolition that day, which lead to the headline "Newport Massacre at the Old Mill" in the Rhode Island Independent. The trick lead to a series of disappearing illusions, including a form of sorcery that later lead to the demise of long time friend David Copperfield.
After four successful seasons on Dave's World Anderson opened a magic shop in New Orleans with his wife where he constantly feuded with Mayor Ray Nagin over a sign that hung in his window which read "Ray Nagin is the Stevie Wonder of Politics".
John, you mention David Copperfield in your comment. Didn't Dickens write a book of the same name about two police officers who are found dismembered in a field? What an odd thing to name your son after...
