The enforcer position in the NHL is all but extinct, and analytics nerds will tell you that's a good thing. On one hand they're right. The more speed and skill on ice the better. On the other hand, sometimes you just wish your favorite team had a guy that would sock an opponent in the face when they stepped out of line. A guy like Milan Lucic.
Lucic is the last of his kind in the current NHL. The 31-year-old has been wreaking havoc on the ice for 13 years, eight of those spent with the Boston Bruins, one with the L.A. Kings, three with the Edmonton Oilers and now one game with his new squad, the Calgary Flames. On Thursday night the Flames were in Colorado to face the Avalanche, and Lucic wasted absolutely no time endearing himself to his new teammates.

2018 was a rough year for the New York Rangers. They won 32 games, finished second-to-last in the Metropolitan Division, and were the least relevant hockey team in New York, which is saying a lot because, well, the Islanders are the Islanders. Thus Thursday evening, the opening night of the 2019-20 season for the Rangers, was viewed as an opportunity to turn the page—a chance to grab a fresh start with both hands and run with it. Unfortunately before the Rangers even had the chance, the bad juju struck again, tripping forward Lias Andersson with a cable during player introductions in a moment that has since gone gleefully viral:

Cringey NYC jokes aside, you do have to feel for the kid. One second you're on top of the world, the next you're flat on your ass, and all because some idiot inexplicably left a cable on a dark sheet of ice an..

ShaiithBad news, scotch drinkers. Bad news, spouses of scotch drinkers. Bad news, friends, family, sons, daughters, Secret Santa partners, and mailmen of scotch drinkers. Bad news to just about everybody buying anyone anything brown and boozy from the British Isles this holiday season: It's about to get a hell of a lot more expensive.
According to Forbes, On Wednesday, the U.S. Government, not content with their ongoing trade war with China, passed a 25% tariff on all single-malt scotch whisky imports (read: all single-malt scotch whisky period.) The new import tax—a petty financial swing at the European Union over a plane manufacturing subsidy provided to Airbus at the expense Boeing—includes $7.5 billion dollars worth of European goods, including everything from German beer to French cheese, AKA any easy, fool-proof holiday gift idea you can possibly think of (sorry, but I don't think mom wants the new Call of Duty.)

Earlier this week, a gift from the content gods was bestowed upon us when news broke that former PGA Tour pro Bio Kim was suspended three years from the Korean Tour. His crime? Kim, upset that he heard a cellphone camera shutter during his swing, gave the middle finger to the crowd, a move the Korean Tour said “damaged the dignity of a golfer with etiquette violation and inappropriate behavior.”

The immediate response from many in the golf media and on Golf Twitter was to defend Kim, the common refrain being that the punishment did not fit the crime. A few tour pros also commented on Kim's suspension, but none came to his defense quite like Kevin Na, who knows Kim well, going as far to say as he felt like “a big brother” to him while Kim was trying to find his way on the PGA Tour.
“We developed a really good relationship. What he did was wrong,” Na said on Wednesday at the Shriners Hospitals for Childr..

CHRISTOPHE ARCHAMBAULTUS rapper Cardi B waves as she arrives prior to the Chanel Women's Spring-Summer 2020 Ready-to-Wear collection fashion show at the Grand Palais in Paris, on October 1, 2019. (Photo by Christophe ARCHAMBAULT / AFP) (Photo credit should read CHRISTOPHE ARCHAMBAULT/AFP/Getty Images)I'll be the first to admit that my music tastes are stuck in the good ol' 1990s. What a time to be alive and in middle school/high school. From the Grunge movement to the Boy Band Era at the end of the decade to the Spin Doctors—especially the Spin Doctors—I could leave my car radio on 90s on 9 all day. Actually, that's pretty much what I do anyway. Oh, when I'm not listening to the Dave Matthews Band channel. DAVE! GOAT!
Anyway, this is all to say I know very little about the current crop of musical acts. Now, I'd be lying if I said I've never heard of Cardi B, but I wouldn't be lying if I said I couldn't name one of her songs. But it looks lik..
