  1. The 49/Seatle game ended like last year. (didn't they play last year too?) Last year, Russell Wilson had a chance to win the game with the last play of the game. They needed a touchdown. He scramble to the right and there was an open receiver in the end zone, Wilson was around the 5 yard line and tried to lob a pass over a 49er to the end zone. The 49er jumped up and knocked down the pass. That saved the game for the 49ers.

    This year, a Seatle player knocks the pass, saving a touchdown.

    That did not happen.....last year SF defeated Atlanta to represent in the last Superbowl

    Yes SF & Seattle are in the same division and play each other 2x each regular season.

  2. Bud was an integral part of the SF Bay Area Jazz scene for quite some time, as a drummer, producer, recording engineer, radio host, concert promoter and more.

    The love & admiration from so many fine musicians in this area pouring in upon the news of his passing.

  5. Different strokes, I guess.

    I'm going to the Kings-Ducks outdoor game later this month, which I imagine will be fairly garbage in terms of ice quality... but it'll be enjoyable nonetheless. I don't think I'll experience -21 Celsius temperatures like I did at the Heritage Classic, so I got that going for me.

    I do agree that the sheer quantity of these outdoor games will render them fairly inane after a while. The NHL really needs to scale back on these things... once every couple of years is plenty.

    ....or 1 singular EVENT per year

    That said those 'north of the boarder' want an outdoor game badly, so 1 in USA & 1 in Canada each year or alternating I think is more reasonable.

    I actually like that the conditions aren't predictable like the indoor rinks....puts hockey for those few games in the same realm of football or baseball where wind/weather may come into play. In the winter classic they changed ends at the 10 minute mark in each period...pretty cool wrinkle I thought.

  6. Can't have it both [3] ways :crazy: ....dangerous Chargers/Chiefs practice squad/Chiefs 1st stringers just not a very good team.

    Niners/Carolina two terrific defenses, but we'll not see a baseball score like we did last time. 9ers had no wide receiver threat and other key injuries last time out.

  8. I'll be honest; I don't get the appeal of outdoor NHL hockey. It's like playing an NFL game on the dirt road outside Bobby's house.

    The players and coaches unanimously love it, as they (almost) all started out playing outdoors.

    With the weather being the way it was both teams kept things pretty simple which to me was really enjoyable to watch.

    In an effort for the NHL to 'kill the goose that laid the golden egg' they're doing this Stadium Series, at the end of the month and then again in March.

    Kings/Ducks at Dodger Stadium

    Rangers/Islanders, then 2 days later Rangers/Devils; both at Yankee Stadium

    March 1 & 2

    Pens/Hawks at Soldier Field

    Canucks/Sens at BC Place

  9. The Winter Classic was a fantastic show yesterday!!

    Did anyone catch it?

    I'm glad Toronto got the 2 points as goaltender Bernier was head & shoulders the best player on the ice IMO.

    Funniest part was to me, hours afterwards NHL network had a post game show OUTDOORS near the rink....to see the co-hosts in parkas chatting it up in the frigid weather was pretty silly. During one segment, they had 2 participants from the game who were named to the USA Olympic team who were typically hockey player polite, but were very happy to be done.

    I get it to have reporters nearby for immediate reaction after the game as NBC did, then they had an indoor place and a podium indoors for coaches and player interviews.

    Question to NHL....stadium holds 100,000+ seats....might there be an indoor area to set up your post game panel? :huh:

  10. Happy New Year!!

  12. My 2 cents:

    Seeing RIP in the headline even with (rumor) alongside is disconcerting and easily reads as if his life or death remains unknown, when, in fact it has been confirmed that he's alive. If the thread is to remain, the head should be adjusted to simply "Horace Silver" or "Horace Silver Is Alive" or something ...

    Fixed.

    Activist jazz fans should see to it that the man and his music are properly represented here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_premature_obituaries

    Wiki had Horace RIP early this morning and took it down.
