2012 All-Star Game Open Thread
1:00 pm PST, CBC
Hey, remember that silly Guardian Project stuff from last year's All-Star Game? Well, Puck Daddy found out that the project made the company lose millions of dollars, having profits drop by 80% in 2011. Despite the successes of their technologies in other things like Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed, the GP is being considered as the largest factor of their losses. No wonder we barely heard anything about it after Raleigh.....
Anyways, today in Ottawa we finally have the 2012 All-Star Game, which is best combined with drinking alcohol at any times like the ones on this list. Here are the lineups:
Team Chara
Corey Perry - Evgeni Malkin - Jarome Iginla
Phil Kessel - Tyler Seguin - Joffrey Lupul
Jamie Benn - Patrick Kane - Jordan Eberle
Dion Phaneuf - Dennis Wideman
Kimmo Timonen - Ryan Suter
Team Alfredsson
Logan Couture - Claude Giroux - Steven Stamkos
Daniel Sedin - Henrik Sedin - Scott Hartnell
James Neal - John Tavares - Jason Pominville
Erik Karlsson - Kris Letang
Keith Yandle - Shea Weber
Alexander Edler - Dan Girardi
Now, for the last Vampires Suck clip. This is the one that originally inspired my usage of this movie as a theme for this weekend's open threads. Even if Edler was separated from the Twins, I'd still be using this. I just replace "Jacob" with "Edler" in this clip, and it's perfect:

Via Puck Daddy, Brian Campbell’s trouser snake accidentally caught on camera (censored in the PD post).

Photographer has one job and thats to take pictures without penises in them and he cant even do that right!
Have you accepted Aaron Rome as your Lord and Savior?
Lol. Notebook just said: no penises?

Step 1) Point
Step 2) Check for penises
Step 3) Shoot
Step 4) ?
Step 5) Profit!
Have you accepted Aaron Rome as your Lord and Savior?
Maybe he walked into the picture between step 2 and 3.
GO SHARKS!

This is a possibility. Maybe he needs a flowchart.
1)Check for Penises
1a) Are there any penises?
Yes) Don’t shoot.
No) Return to step 1
Have you accepted Aaron Rome as your Lord and Savior?
It seems this would trap the photographer in an endless loop of looking for penises.

Have you accepted Aaron Rome as your Lord and Savior?
In a locker room the assumption is there always are. What needs to happen after step 3 is someone to edit or proofread each photo before publishing. Are there any penises in the photos, if yes, do not publish.

lol sucks for Campbell but it could have been worse, you really can’t see much so at least it isn’t as embarrassing as it could have been lol

Love that Don Cherry’s against seeing guys get embarrassed. Of course it doesn’t apply when commentators on his broadcasts call players ‘sisters’ and ‘Thelma and Louise’, because that’s nowhere near as bad as the humiliation of being picked last…

i turned him off and watched some Heat/Bulls basketball right after that tired “picked last” bullshit.
But I guess Don has to be Don. As soon as his stooge held up the newspaper, it seemed a good idea to ignore the Leafs/Don pissing match.

just to check the score
I was flicking back and forth, and every time I went back, Don was being a bit of an ass.
I usually can handle him, but he seemed extra contrived today…
And…Lebron James vs Derrick Rose MAN! ;-)

After Hiller got a scrambley head in the last one, it looks like a “no bombs” policy has been enacted with players.

Just thought of a new ASG alternative...
Since I found the the game boring for the most part, I had an idea that they could change it to a 3-on-3 bracket style tourney. Hold a televised draft to select 8 teams of 5 (4 skaters, 1 goalie) from a pool of 32 skaters and 8 goalies. They could play 7 total games with 5-minute periods in under 2 hours, excluding breaks. Who’s with me??
